BoilerAero---$158-$25561-160-BLT-Oct-0/20, 80/21, 160/22- sent 4/29

First attempt at buying DVC. Fingers crossed. A little worried with so many BLT taken recently, but hoping this is just high enough to pass.

So frustrated right now! We signed a contract on 4/8 (signed by both parties). We were hoping to hear something this week about ROFR since we're at the 3 week mark. We got an automated email from the broker today saying the contract was sent to ROFR...TODAY! At first I thought it was just an issue where they never updated the file saying it was sent and maybe they heard back today and were updating everything.

I called and they said that there was other paperwork that Disney needs from the seller that was just returned today. I thought just the contract was sent to ROFR. Are there really other documents that need to be signed by the seller? I know nothing can be done now, but I'm just curious if this is really the case or if the broker screwed up and is just trying to cover it up.

From my experience, once all the documents are signed by both parties, the quality assurance or the admin team of the brokerage company will send you an email to confirm that the contract was sent to Disney for ROFR. Did you ever receive that email or did you just assume they sent it? And which company is your broker?

Looking at an Aulani contract, 300 points, next points coming 9/22. Listed for 129, offered 115, counter at 122. I know prices are higher right now.....just seems high to me... big sigh

I bought two 110 point Aulani contracts within that range last week, way higher than what I paid this summer, but what can you do? Your contract, with more points, would normally go for a little less, but someone else will snap it up if you don’t.

If the seller once co-owned the contract with someone else, and their circumstances changed, Disney might ask for a new deed with just the current seller’s name. That happened to me once and it did slow things down a bit.

So pleased you passed after such a long wait. Maybe ours will be done soon!

Thank you!

If your a DVC resale member (white card) and have a stay for 14 days and buy a 7 day ticket
To MK do you have to use the days consecutively? Or can you spread them out as if you were a regular resort guest?

I totally feel your frustration. It seems like each day is a month when waiting to find out if your contract passed or was taken. It could be the Broker screwed up but a lot of the times the seller holds up the process. Either by just dragging their feet, some states have special laws in place like a live phone call with a lawer or it all has to be done on paper instead of electronic. It also could be a seller outside of the US. That will delay things quite a bit. Hopefully the wait will be worth it in the end. Good luck.

I received the email...yesterday haha. I thought I read that it would be sent once the contract was signed but I guess not. I probably should have asked the broker if it had been sent after getting notification that the seller had signed. Not that it would've sped things up at all, but at least we wouldn't have been waiting nervously all week. We're using www.fidelityrealestate.com.

I checked the deed and it looks like it's only been the one person.

We don't need the points right away so it's not that big of a deal. I just don't want prices to keep going up and make it harder to pass. I also don't want to miss out on something else while we're waiting extra long. Luckily (I guess) there aren't many contracts out there now so nothing else has come up that matches what we want.

Did anyone happen to get the AUL April use year contract (200 pts @ $132/pp) earlier this week? Wondering what it got accepted for...

$132 for Aulani sounds insanely high

 

[808blessing]

Ever been awaiting rofr and you spot a little more perfect unicorn contract listed? Asking for a friend.

 

[nihonsugar]

Ya, we offered $100 bc everyone told me not to spend more than that, but there was another offer, and they were higher. Just wondering if these contracts are really going for $125/pp now.

Yes, you buy that one too if the price is right

I saw a thread on FB complaint about a 50 point HHI contract listed for $135pp. EVERYTHING is insanely high right now

 

[ILoveMyDVC]

Another one to post. Very nervous my first one hasn't cleared ROFR yet.

That’s me the complainer.
It’s still bothering me that I didn’t buy HHI six months ago.
Lol.
