I'm hoping we both hear before the very last day! Good luck on your member number, I'm thinking that you will be in good shape time wise. We are fortunate in that we already have the AP - we just will have to wait until renewal time to get the advantage of DVC discount! I love the analysis you do, and have watched DVC sales for some time (actually made an offer about 3 years ago, only to have the seller accept a competing offer... I decided to wait before making another offer. Poor decision!!). One thing that would be interesting is an analysis of what effect the time of year has on DVC prices. It may not be anything at all, but it does seem to me that more listings come available in late winter/early spring (February-March) and that has some effect on prices. Maybe people put their DVC membership on sale after they get the Annual Dues notice! It would take a multi-year analysis to really see if there is a seasonal fluctuation on the resale side, and I'm not sure if that kind of data really exists anywhere in the public realm.You submitted one day before we did. I had my fingers crossed for today, but I'm thinking now it will probably be next Friday. I just hope we can get started on the estoppel process before the Labor Day weekend. I really need my member number before Thanksgiving so I can upgrade to the DVC AP.
Welcome and good luckBeen stalking the forums for some time trying to learn more about DVC and wish to thank everyone for unknowingly helping to educate us as we researched purchasing our first DVC contract. We learned a lot from your knowledge and experiences. I wish we could have purchased during the 2012/2013 markets but are very excited for the opportunity to join the DVC.

broker will tell you, you have probably 2+ months before checking website time. Sorry!I am waiting to here back...in ROFR right now...just curious will it show up in the occompt website soon as I know if passes or it was taken back? Or will the broker know before I will and then it gets posted. I keep checking the website daily. Thanks!
We passed on $65 at OKW a few months ago, but lately they have been taking back OKW more. It depends on how soon you want your contract. We decided we didn't want to pay more than $65/pt at OKW and were willing to just keep cycling through until one passed at that price if the first one didn't pass.Looking at an okw contract. Do you think I have a chance with rofr if we offer $65? 150 point contract.
That's where we are at. I want to bring our ownership to 1000 points but we are in no rush. $65 is my top price. Thanks for your help.We passed on $65 at OKW a few months ago, but lately they have been taking back OKW more. It depends on how soon you want your contract.

Update: Past ROFR on 7/20/15
This is my first post to tell you about our first offer on our first DVC contract. I'm a bit worried about this getting through ROFR because the price is a little low so I'm hoping the stripped points will help offset that!
