ROFR Discussion Thread

[VGCgroupie]

Moving discussion here about our contract that got ROFRd. Definitely keep your head on a swivel when it comes to OKW contracts it seems.

We are offering on another today I think and taking CAF off the table and asking the seller to pay it.

There are quite a few contracts out there in our 50-75 range at SSR and OKW that have been sitting for 20+ days with notes when you get to the page saying, “only a full price offer will be accepted”. Many from the same site……

What’s the feeling on offering below asking for those anyway? Just do it? Worst they can say is no?

You can do it. I never do since I feel it’s a waste of time. I love buying from brokers who don’t put that on listings hardly ever.

Same. I’d rather just put in my offer and have it rejected. Nothing is more of a turn off than someone saying “this is what I want and I won’t budge until I get it”.

I’m sure it works or they wouldn’t do it.

But, that’s why none of my offers were submitted through DVCRM.

I definitely didnt have any luck with DVCRM at all for any of my offers after I became more educated about waiving mf and finding a deal was important to me. None of the offers I put there ever reached back out to me by agents and the replies I got were either to tell me I will never find a contract at the price I was asking, try to convince me to pay more or just a couple words of it being a no and thats it. Had have much better luck and much less sass with Fidelity

Not surprised by this. They are the “pros” I guess but they’re also working on commission. I’m sorry if this offends anyone, but money makes people do weird things.

Fidelity was simple to work with. I sent in my offer through the online form, the agent reached out to confirm the offer, and away it went to the seller. Superrrr easy!

Had offered on one of the Fidelity contracts that I believe is still listed. That one had an auto reply, or at least appeared to be, come back and outright rejected my offer. Just glad I had the chance to submit the offer I wanted to submit.

In my estimation, DVCRM is the place to sell high, not buy low - if I were going to sell, I think that's who I would use. I made several offers to them early on when first getting into the resale game, and the agent I worked with was incredibly nice, but it was very much like she was trying to educate me just how much higher I would need to come up to if I actually wanted to get the contract.

I will say, if I had gone down the road of wanting resale BLT Oct UY, I would have ended up caving and likely buying through them at whatever price I could get because BLT Oct UY contracts are quite rare and they tend to go pretty fast when they come along.

And, if you know exactly what you want, don't want to wait, paying the premium for an average deal over a bottom-of-the-market deal may well be worth it.

Yep, understand that.

Pros at selling i would say. Out of my 4 resale purchases, this company was the only one I was deeply unhappy with purchasing from for many different reasons. The others have gone without a hitch!
