ROFR Thread April to June 2021 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

So the points are super high right now, right? My wife and I are looking at possibly buying but it seems like things are currently inflated and above $120 on something like AKL doesn't seem like a great buy.

You are correct

Yay!! the 5th try to buy BLT and we finally made it past the ROFR dart board .

Congratulations!!

I have decided if mine does not pass on this third try I am going to wait. I think that Disney is buying things up fast and furious to have inventory as things re open entirely. I think people will buy and then some will have buyers remorse. I also expect that inventory will pick up towards fall. That's my thinking anyway.

That's what I'm thinking too!

Its a combined closing cost so I have just put 50/50 on each contract for above.

You should be ok with that

We hope so. We realize it's a little higher, but found value in 2020 points that we won't have to pay due on.

I am there with you on an OKW contract at 46 days. It’s just ridiculous.

It is possible that Disney has a maybe pile of contracts they are considering taking back. Thus the extended timeframe. Just a thought.

 

[princesscinderella]

I got so excited today when I got an email that my contract passed ROFR and I thought it was my AKV one submitted on 4/19 but nope it was just the www.DVCresalemarket.com finally telling me two days later that my BLT contract passed after finding out from my title co. (Mason) on Monday. I’m not impressed with the service from them. All my other tries for BLT I heard right away from the broker, most with a personal phone call.

Sorry to hear you are also waiting. No idea why some take so much longer.

Is it not kosher to ask the title company if I've passed instead of the broker? Last two times I wasn't told by the broker that I'd been taken. One had been taken the week before I asked for an update.

I would definitely call or email the title company and the broker.

Even with combined closing cost...thats higher than you usually pay. But congrats!

 

[Paul Stupin]

That's what I'm thinking too!

I actually don't think prices will be coming down anytime soon. 1) All the people who wanted to get out already have this past year, while everyone who bought isn't going to be selling anytime soon. 2) Disney let the market crash this spring, and did the resale market a huge favor. They're not going to do it again. I don't think they're going to let up on ROFR anytime soon. From what I've heard, direct sales are crazy busy, and we know where the points they're selling are coming from. 3) DVC is, kind of, Orlando real estate, which is currently red hot and getting hotter.

Possibly, we're not anywhere near the top of the curve, so prices could continue going up.

There goes my contract too then .. I am sorry this one got taken

It is far higher than I would usually pay. But it was the right point number contract for me. I had valued it realistically at probably $175pp

But I know it will go up and be easy to re-sell if I need to. But on the plus side only 1 closing cost and not two.

I'm afraid people will have to start offering over asking to pass. Just like the housing market.
