So, kind of sad news on my 30 day contract.

We're never going to find out how well the experiment worked or not.

Something came up last week financially for me that made it so we were no longer comfortable going through with a second contract right now. With a lot of guilt, I had to send in my cancellation notice.
So sorry that life "got in the way" as it has to all of us. I'm sure someone else will carry the torch to the finish line for you... Hope all works out well with you and your family!

According to my sales person they are taking a lot of BLT, anything in the $130s pretty much.

Sorry to hear that. This contract would have been awesome to have.

Sorry to hear as well.

My broker says they are still taking a lot of AKV and SSR contracts. Of course, those just happen to be the two resorts of my two outstanding contracts.

GAAAAAAHHHHH. Third in a row taken! I feel like I'm never going to get more AKL points if this keeps up o_O

@ArmyChaplain Matt I actually asked the broker since I was curious about any information I could find on your theory about international sellers passing more easily (and my denial of that possibility, lol) and she said that well over a third of the 18 (!!!!!!!) buybacks they received today were international sellers.

So- enjoy having snuck that great contract through :D!

Dang it! Sorry it was taken and all those points.

Actually, I think it twas I who started the whole international seller discussion......it was based on what my broker told me based on their experiences within DVC Sales. Another person indicated that if the international seller was based in Canada then Disney would take those (depending on price per point, etc.)

Anyway, I do find it interesting that Disney's targeting the three lowest price per point resorts (AKV, SSR and OKW) located in WDW along with the most recent high cost resort (BLT) just as Riviera sales start.

this was my first attempt, bummed it was taken but not surprised given the price was too good to be true. Was through fidelity, I was happy with their communications.

Will try again!!

Gives me little hope for my contract. Although we only have 23 points coming for 2019. Still waiting for seller to sign the contract so maybe by the time it goes to Disney they'll be passing more. lol

I took a look at the BLT contracts bought back by Disney on the Orange County website during April and it looked like all of them were $140/point or less. There was at least one that I saw that was probably $141/point. It takes a little work to figure out the per point price since the deeds that Disney uses for ROFRs don't list points (they only have the percentage of the relevant unit) and you have to calculate the price based on the document tax. Also, looking at the Orange County website doesn't tell you whether the contract was loaded or stripped and if there were other buyer favorable terms (like the seller paying closing costs or current year dues). However, it's still gives a rough sense of what's going on. I'm not sure any BLT contract priced at $140/point or less will make it through right now.

Yikes

Yikes! So sorry this was taken. Don't give up!!!

? In my mind the most recent high cost resort would be VGF, although Poly opened more recently than BLT and VGF and is rather high priced as well.
 
Just got word this was taken today :( put another offer in let’s hope!
Wow, that was an excellent price you had. That sucks! I just signed a 100 point BWV contract though for considerably more per point ($136) so I hope this isn't a pattern with BWV. Sorry it got taken!

My point is that Disney is continuing to target the low cost WDW resorts with ROFR.

What is interesting is the resorts that Disney is targeting are those recommended to be purchased with the intention to buy them to use at other resorts. Three (and sometimes OKW too) of the resorts are consistently recommended highly for this purpose, leaving out OKW because they could be going after that one to convert all to the 2057 expiration date. Perhaps DVC is decided to use ROFR to make those resorts less appealing for that purpose, something I was very much told wasn't what they intended DVC to turn into, right or wrong.
