I guess if title insurance is not purchased (I know that some brokers make it optional though I would never recommend skipping that), you never know what might follow you. I agree you definitely made the right call!

It's stripped so it is less likely to be rofr'ed. Curious.. What is your price? If it's crazy low, like in the 50s, maybe it would be taken. But my laypersons opinion is that mid 60s and higher should be fine. I could always be wrong, tho...

My offer was $67 pp for 170 points. With me paying closing costs. Zero points left for 2015. $11,890 total. We'll see how it goes

 

[suebeelin]

Thanks for the vote of confidence. And good for you for going with your gut instinct, too!

Orange County Comptroller records...I was honestly just curious when he purchased contract. Then found a bunch more contracts he purchased this year when I searched his name. Just really odd one would buy a decent size contract and sell it within a few months, especially since he just bought yet another VWL contract a few weeks ago at the end of April. The contract we just backed out on, he purchased late February this year. Just too odd for us.

Yah, hubby trusts my gut now. Doesn't hurt that our current house has appreciated in value, while the other one that I felt bad about the sellers, only 2 miles away, has depreciated....

I would put money on it that you're fine . It just seems that the banked points/loaded contracts are a moving target.

My SIL just paid $65 (plus $195 buyers fee, $375 closing) for a 170pp June use year, no points till 2016. She just passed rofr a few days ago .... Her total with closing costs are $11,620... Very similar to yours!

I love your thinking. I would think I'll hear something within the next few weeks. Can't wait till I can call myself a owner and take my first trip next year.

knobster --- $115-$24644-200-BLT-Jun-0/14, 185/15, 200/16 - sent 5/23

We have been on the fence for years now, after staying at BLT 3 days after it opened (cash reservation with free dining!). But the BLT cash reservation discounts dried up a couple of years ago, and we want to get back to staying there.

Anyway, I don't know whether to start counting the days because it was sent to ROFR on the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend.

Thanks everyone for all of the good information.

 

[SomeImaginationHuh]

I'm not sure of the specifics of ROFR, but do you think they will release any decisions today, since it's Memorial Day, or will they push them off to Tuesday? Or will we have to wait until Friday? Anyone know from past experience? I'm just anxiously checking my email every five minutes.

Yours is very similar to the one I'm waiting on. Same price per point and also June use year and similar size (Mine was 180). Mine had all the points from 2014 available, though. I'm hoping to hear this week, so I'll definitely let you know. Good Luck!!

I'll be paying for 2015 annual maintenance fee. Sooooo nervous and anxious!

I also think you'll be okay. They wouldn't be able to do anything with the points until 2016 and there are better targets floating around all the time !

We passed!!!!!

Did this really take 50 days or is there a misprint somewhere?

Yes it did. Sellers forgot to bank points

 

[daraweb]

So today is Day 28 and I got it in my head that we would hear today. Although I wonder, do they only notify people on Mondays and Fridays?

I'm getting a little antsy because
1. there are banked 2013 points that I don't want to waste and
2. our 7 month mark is rapidly approaching in July (and these are VGF points that we hope to be able to use in March).
