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

[maryliz]

Congrats - I was watching my phone all day for a call. Hopefully I will hear this week.

ME TOO ... watching the phone and emails that is! And I've come to this thread about 4 times today looking for people that passed today, hoping that I would be next.

Patience ... NOT my virtue.

Big CONGRATS to those that passed!

Pat, I hear that like a watched pot, a watched phone never rings....

I know, I know...

I was checking for an update from YOU to say you passed so then I know I could look forward to hearing hopefully good news for myself real soon.


I just don't want to "ignore" the call. That is one call I want to be sure to take.

Well we can officially be added to the waiting club. We went to ROFR today!

Our first Dvc contract- Bwv 250. 88 points need to be used by 4/1/12. 500 points coming on 4/1/12. $62 pp, buyer pays closing and 2012 mf. It was a little more a point than we originally aimed for but it met all of our other requirements so we are happy!

I hope the next couple of weeks fly by because I am so impatient!

Congrats, and welcome to the wait list! I think you did pretty well $/point wise, considering how well loaded the contract is.

Mine went to ROFR on Monday, so you should hear something within a few days of me.

Fingers are crossed for the both of us!

 

[DisneyRegulars]

Good luck to all the new additions. I hope your wait isn't too long. We passed with maybe 3 days left out of the 30. Here is some pixie dust for you all.

 

[Breyean]

Since I'm also waiting to hear, I called Sharon at Fidelity to check. I have 1 more week before the 30 days are up.

Thought I'd pass this along, which I got from her. I'm waiting for a contract at VGC, so I sort of follow that more closely than other resorts.

For a really long time, Fidelity had a 500 point VGC contract, I think it was my UY (June), but today I noticed it was gone. So I asked Sharon, and they had sold it.

$70/point!!!

That has to be the lowest I've seen for a VGC contract, no matter what size. I had been ROFR'd on one in June for 250 points at $74.

Wonder if it will pass, esp since they recently raised the direct price to $130.

We have joined the waiting game as well. First contract offer,went to ROFR last Sunday. OKW 250 points,$50. a point, 175- points from 2011 banked, all of 2012 points. We are keeping our fingers crossed.

Congrats, and best of luck! I think you will pass no problem at $50/point at OKW. Many have passed at $45/point with many or all 2011 points remaining.

I was wondering what happened to this contract. I will be very surprised if Disney lets it pass. They can break that 500 pt contract up into many smaller ones and resell for much more.

Keeping my fingers crossed for you, Breyean. The last week is nerve- wracking. Hang in there

 

[G'sMaman]

Good luck to everyone who's waiting to hear back on their contract and lots of pixie dust for a speedy close! We just heard that our VWL contract closed today so the points should be in our accounts shortly. The process only took a month and a half compared to our VGC contract which took 4 months to finally close. Breyean, hope you hear some good news soon!

 

[bigtony777]

We are now waiting as well. We went to ROFR on 11/16 with a BWV 290 point Feb UY contract for $57. Buyer pays closing and 2012 dues. We have 70 points to use from 2010 and all points banked from 2011 so 580 coming in 2012.

I hope that we get through it quickly so that we have a chance to use the 70 points for a trip the last week of December. We won't be picky, but I hope there will be something available to switch out one or two of our cash nights that trip.

 

[XGrumpy1]

I don't know if that will be possible to get the points and use them by the end of December, but good luck!

You'll have a much better idea once you pass ROFR. Best of luck!

Thanks for the well wishes & pixie dust everyone!

I passed ROFR; got notified 11/16/2011 by TTS. Magic Vacation Title is moving quickly too; got my closing docs 11/18/2011; pretty good since I only began the purchase process on Oct. 19th! Now we'll just have to see how long it takes to close and have the additional contract available in DVC's system...

We are in almost the same place in the process. We started on Oct. 15th. Passed ROFR on 11/10. Received our closing docs and returned them on 11/18. Now we are waiting... Hopefully the rest moves quickly for both of us.

 

[Andrew015]

Congrats to both of you! 4 weeks seems to be the norm for the time being.

I just passed one week of ROFR. I'm hoping to hear something the week before Christmas!

Come on, Santa!
