ROFR Thread April to June 2022 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

Are ROFR responses generally sent to brokers in the morning? So if I don’t hear from my broker in the morning I likely won’t hear from her that day at all? I see most people talking about getting those emails in the morning.

I’ve wondered this as well. Very interested in an answer.

Actually I believe the ROFR fairies only work at night - like the tooth fairy.

Being slightly more serious, it’s Disney, there’s probably no method. I’m sure they send them to brokers at all times\days. I’ve seen posts where people have been notified on weekends and holidays sooo…. iunno ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It's state dependent. Here in NC, Friday is a holiday for many counties/cities, but Monday is not.

I received the email saying our contract passed at 7:15 am this morning. When I was told our previous contract was ROFR’d my broker called and told me on a Saturday morning. He explained that he found out late afternoon the day before, but doesn’t like to call with bad news at the end of the day for several reasons. He waited until the next morning. He also explained that if our next contract doesn’t pass I would find out from him. If it does pass, I will find out before he does, via email. When I found out this morning that it passed, I called him to share the news. My broker was excited to hear it from me and hadn’t gotten the news yet that it had passed. He said he likely would have found out this afternoon. Hope that is helpful.

Very helpful! Ok, so you heard that your Contract passed straight from DVD?

Did you mean Grand Floridian or Grand Californian. If you got Grand Californian at $185 you hit the lottery.

Correction, DVC hit the lottery.

I went back and looked. I learned that it passed straight from an email from the concierge team at the company I brokered through. I guess they send an email right away if it passes otherwise they have the broker call in person to deliver the bad news that it was ROFR’d. My broker had previously told me that unfortunately I don’t want to have him call because it will likely be with bad news. So when he called last Tuesday I got nervous we had another contract ROFR’d. Fortunately he was just wishing me a happy Birthday! . A week latter the email came that it passed.

Bummer. Thanks for letting me know. I guess I'll just prepare to do more waiting. It's all worth it. I just want to be able to log in and poke around.

I think it depends on your title agent, and how quickly the deed recording goes. Our most recent AUL contract is processing much faster than our previous ones- total timeline will be about 7 weeks, currently waiting for the contract to appear in our account. Last year we had two AUL contracts that each took 4 months total from offer made to points in account. The title agent at the time told us that there were only a few employees recording deeds in HA, so it took about a month for the deeds to be recorded.

Day 25….. BWV… I know it’s got a high probability to get taken but I am an eternal optimist….. no news is good news?!?!

Day 24 here. Was hoping today. For everyone still waiting!

Day 11 here!

Our first was ROFR’d after 4 weeks of waiting and our next (this one) was submitted for ROFR the next day… so it seems like we’ve been waiting for 6 weeks, but it’s really only been 11 days!

We heard our contract was taken by Disney on a Saturday at 4pm via phone call. Then the “Disney exercised their right of first refusal” email came a few minutes after the call.

Day 35 here for AKV, was really hoping to hear by the 3 week mark like last time when they took it. Maybe since it’s over a month they are going to let it pass…..

I have been wondering if you had heard yet or not. We're just a few days behind you on our first of 2 that we've submitted. Really hoping to get some good news.

Four months? Ugh. That is rough!
