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

[mixmastertoy]

I used Resort Closings Inc. I actually purchased this through Ebay (pretty lucky I know)... I didnt think there was any way my Bay Lake Towers would pass ROFR for less than $70 a point!

How long does it take now before I can book my first stay : )

 

[dismagiclover]

Bought Bay Lake Towers on May 2nd... rofr passed on May 26th

160 points for 66.25 a point

I thought it was a good deal and would never pass but it did!

Congratulations! That is an incredible steal! That is all the evidence I need that Disney is not using ROFR ever! I'll be interested to see where the prices finally settle!

Points finally showing on my member website. What a long wait. I'm happy I finally have these points, but now I am still waiting on 2 more contracts.

I noticed that the other day...your vb contracts right?...boy, it has taken awhile! I hope they show up really soon for you!

Thank you. One is VB and one is BWV. I need to bank 2010 points by the end of the month, but that is on Tuesday and I don't think I will have them by then.

100 AKV Points - no points until June 2012

4-29 offered $67.00 a point
4-29 offer accepted
5-2 sent to Disney for ROFR
5-23 passed ROFR and documents received

I was actually on Hilton Head Island when the contract passed, so will have to do all the paperwork now that I'm home. Dh and I are thrilled that the purchase (so far) had gone so seamlessly.

I think MS sometimes makes exceptions for resales. When you finally get the points (assuming it's past the banking deadline), I would ask if they would let you bank. You may get lucky and get a really nice rep!

Wishing you luck that they come through soon. My resales seemed to take FOREVER! Hopefully, things are back to normal now.

Thanks. I am definitely going to try to bank them. Hopefully they will be understanding of the closing taking so long.

Nice ones! Are they both the same Use Year? We just bought BCV pre-3/20 and are thinking about a small add-on...we have April, 200 points, want to add on about 50 more (but if prices drop a bit we might stretch that to 100).

Good luck!

Thanks. Both 150pt BCV contacts are Oct Use Year.
I am hopeful they will make it through ROFR.
The Oct use year will make using or reselling the 60 banked 2009 point difficult since they expire 9/30/11 and we probably won't get access to the point till August.

I passed ROFR today (4/29)! Huzzah!

Depending on which email you believe (on which date the contract was submitted to Disney), it was either 31 days, 26 days, or 19 days.

But, hey, we made it! I should expect up to month for closing and getting the points in my name at Disney, right?

Happy (not Dopey),
Doug

Okay, so now were into June... I finally got documents from the title company on Friday, May 27. I was able to review, sign, and notarize all of them in time to get them mailed out the same day.

Still waiting. This whole thing started with contracts signed back on March 29. I was aware that it could take a month or two, but it will probably be close to 3 months before I have possession of the points.
