Anyone made it through (or not made it through) ROFR recently? - Section IV

[sparkhill]

We had trouble like this with Fidelity too.
I don't think I want to use them again....

I think it the problem is more at the title company than Fidelity. Rachael has always been very pleasant and responsive.

I would agree w/ this statement. Rachel has been very responsive every time I've contacted her, so it was my bet that the issue was the title company. Which is why I decided to comment on their FB page. What was the harm, I figured. Worst case scenario, they'd delete the comment & do nothing. But as a company that does business, I was betting they wouldn't want to risk their reputation. I tried not to be too snarky (and if you go to their FB page, you'll probably be able to see the exchange), just drawing attention that we were waiting on them & hadn't heard a word.

Well I'll be danged...Apparently, the monkeys throwing darts at the board missed me, as I squeezed through with my OKW contract today

Here are the details:
OKW 170 points Oct UY
334 points on 10/1/12 (164 banked 2011 points), 170 points for 2013
$48.83 per point, buyer pays closing, buyer and seller split 2012 MF

Anyone else with their OKW contracts make it through too?

Just waived through ROFR , two identical contracts:
VGC - 107 pts, $90/pt, Sept UY, 2011-107 pts (not bankable before closing), 2012-107 pts.
VGC - 107 pts, $90/pt, Sept UY, 2011-107 pts (not bankable before closing), 2012-107 pts.
Seller pays MF, buyer pays closing.
Submitted 4/10/12, passed 5/8/12.
Rachael @ Fidelity.

Congrats! Don't forget that you can see if Disney will grant you a one time late banking exemption. But you may be better off saving it and seeing if you could rent out the 2011 points. Good luck!

Congratulations too all who passed ROFR today! I passed last week and got my closing documents today!

 

[bethifoody]

Congratulations to everyone who passed today! Woohooo!

I got to FedEx my closing docs back today. Here's hoping for a quick closing.

 

[jara1528]

We made it through ROFR today!
AKL, 200 points, Dec UY, 166 points available now, 200 coming in Dec 2012, $59/point, buyer pays closing fees and mf, submitted 4/13 passed 5/8. I think that about covers it!

Congrats to everyone else who made it through!

 

[DVC Mike]

I have two BWV contracts I made offers on. I'm hoping things go smoothly and they both pass ROFR.

Details?

Wow, so many of us found out today! Congrats to all who passed ROFR today, including me!

BWV, 150 points, $57/pt., Feb UY, 14 2012 points, 18 2013 points, 150 points 2014 and thereafter. We don't need points until 2014 and didn't want to pay MFs on them, so this works for us! Buyer pays closing and MFs on the points we are getting for 2012 & 2013 (technically, if anyone is interested, we will pay all the 2013 dues since we will have closed by then, but we will be credited back at closing for the amount of the dues on the 132 points we are not getting, based on 2012 rate - there's a chance we'll end up paying a bit more on the 2013 MFs, but we're OK with that - hopefully it won't be too much!).

Timeline:
4/10 - offer made, countered, accepted; contract received, signed & returned
4/11 - sent for ROFR
5/8 - received notice of Disney waiving ROFR
...to be continued!

I have to agree that the hold up was with the title company. My biggest complaint was that we sent them 15k and for over two weeks we heard nothing. It wasn't until my husband and I started emailing and calling that anything happened.
I think the broker should have been doing more to get it closed in a timely manner and communicating with us.
It shouldn't have taken us calling and asking if they had our funds and what was going on to close the deal.
We had our offer accepted towards the end of February and still don't have the points to use.
