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

[Missyrose]

For all your experts - do ROFR notifications only come out on Tuesdays? If so, then I have to wait till next week! I'm not very patient - its only been a week. How do I get through this waiting game?

Yes, ROFR notices typically come out on Tuesdays. If it's only been a week, then you've probably got three more Tuesdays ahead of you. Find ways to distract yourself and keep telling yourself that most contracts pass with no problem at all.

Thanks, eventhough you didn't give me good news.
I'm not worried about passing - just want the waiting to be over
I'm getting a small contract at BWV and it isn't a steal but exactly what I wanted- Disney would be silly to take it away from me.

Certainly you have something you can do for the next three weeks while you wait for this to pass. My best advice is to forget about it. Then the wait will be nice and easy.

Congrats! How many points were included/banked/borrowed?:

sorry - 150 2011 points were banked. Nothing borrowed.

Thanks for that info... ours has only been a week also, went to Disney on 7/30. I guess we only have about 3 more weeks to go. From some of the reports on here, it seems as though some have only taken 3 weeks and have passed! Guess I'll keep browsing these boards to help time pass!!! Waiting is the worst part

Yeah, I'm in the same boat as you (submitted 7/30). Waiting isn't fun, but I've used the time to look for "backup" contracts if mine falls through. Also, since this is my first DVC purchase, I'm soaking up as much knowledge as I possibly can on reservations, waitlists, booking strategies, etc...

We were told we went to ROFR on 8/1, but I received an email today saying they submitted it without all the seller's docs (there are 2 sellers) and just realized the mistake and resubmitted I'm annoyed that a week was wasted, but glad it wasn't an email telling me we'd been ROFR'd So now our clock starts over!

Yesterday I contacted Timeshare and put in an offer of 65.00 a point for 100 points at AKV. Today, paperwork has been processed and all has been sent to DVC for ROFR, fingers crossed...hoping for the best.

It's a stripped contract, no points until June 2013 but I'm happy with what we offered and will be more than pleased if it goes through.

Good luck! It's nice to hear that you went from initial offer to paperwork being sent to Disney in one day! I hope the rest of the process goes equally smoothly. Disney hasn't been ROFR'ing many AKV contracts, so you should be fine... knock on wood!

None, they still have their own AKV to sell at 100% markup as opposed to ROFR and making 50%.

My 50 point contract for Saratoga was submitted for ROFR on 8/7. The waiting begins! This is an awesome thread for buyers and sellers to get a feel for the market. Thanks to the OP and anyone else who continually keep this thread updated, great job!
I will post my results as soon as I find out. Congrats to all who made it through ROFR, sorry to those who didn't and good luck to all that are like myself, playing the waiting game.

This is our first DVC purchase too. While we are waiting, we are doing the same thing! Hopefully, we will all have Pixie Dust and pass ROFR!!!

I'm thrilled they processed the paperwork so quickly and hopefully it won't take a full 6 weeks for Disney to make a decision on ROFR.

Nice to know.

Nice to know.

This is not gospel. Just one man's opinion, but there is no reason for them to ROFR unlesss you are stealing it, I would think.

I saw on the main summary that I didn't give our "submit" date.

It went to Disney on 7/20. We're in day #20 today, still waiting!
