**ROFR Thread 2014 JAN-JUNE** UPDATE to thread on PG 71!!

[chitwndan]

After reading through this thread, I'm wondering if I'm paying too much at $75 per point for SSR...

I'll say the same thing I said to another owner waiting for ROFR on BLT wondering if they paid too much.

As long as you're happy with the purchase I wouldn't worry about if anyone else got a little better deal. You saved a ton over resale so your deal is not bad at all.

I just bought for $83 per point at SSR but I'm happy having the flexibility of 2 smaller contracts instead of a larger one that would be fewer $$ per point. Not a great deal for some but I didn't want to risk having to wait awhile for exactly what I wanted, so it was well worth it to grab what was perfect for me right away.

$8 a point won't make that much difference in the long run.

Congrats again!

We passed ROFR on May 2, 2014 and closed the sale on June 4th. We finally received our membership letter on June 18th. Already booked for the first week of December at AKL and SSR...hoping for VWL! Yay! We've only ever stayed at POFQ and POR, so we are super excited to be part of the DVC family!

Here's our resale info:

$73-$16,060-220-SSR-Dec-0/'12, 79/'13, 220/'14, 220/'15-sent 4/4, passed 5/2

Stop wondering. You did fine. Could you have cut throated a better deal? Probably. Would that have been worth the trouble? Possibly. Does that matter? Not really.

It won't show the link here, but of 43 SSR properties sold last month, the average weighted price for SSR was $77.55. Google DVC current market value.

You did better than average. It might not be a great price, but it's a really good one. Relax and enjoy. You're almost Home.

We decided to buy back in. Has SSR several years ago, sold at a time when 5 in 1 bedroom was not allowed. Now that is not an issue, buying back in. So excited and hoping to pass ROFR soon so we can book an unplanned Fall trip.

Hoping to pick a smaller contract here and there to add some points down the road, just look for good deals.

to the DIS and the ROFR thread.

You did get a great price… so good that I give this a 20% chance of passing. I haven't seen a BLT go for that low in the year I've been watching prices. Your contract is stripped but not stripped to the point that it isn't attractive to DVC. I'll be hoping with you… I hope this passes.

EDIT::: There were 2 that passed in the second half of last year that were around your price- $80 & $84. The average price for BLT is around $92-94

Edit the original sent date was 5/30 d/t a delay in it being sent to Disney...

chitwndan---$81.25-$13,000-160-BLT-Feb-0/'13, 5/'14, 160/'15-sent 5/30...

IT PASSED!!! 6/26!

I'm getting a bad feeling others that were sent to ROFR after us have passed and we still haven't heard. The last time this happened it was taken. Ugh I wish they would hurry up and contact us!!!

In my experience, the ones that have been taken happen QUICKER.

Oh yeah I totally am. I yelled YES so loud in the office that people three rows over came over to find out what happened

I must say it was a lot less stressful buying direct, but now that we've made it passed ROFR I'm thrilled with how much we saved!
