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

[KVacc]

Back in Dec/Jan I was waiting over 30+ days for ROFR while I watched people getting answers at 21 days. Looking at what you folks are waiting on…40+….? That’s awful!! I feel for you. I thought I had it rough.

Trying to be hopeful about my pending contract. Anyone know what the fastest response from Disney has been so far?

My broker reminded me about https://www.dvcstats.com/#/wait-times the other day... I haven't waded through to see which was the fastest, though.

Good luck to everybody waiting!

I sent mine on the same day for AKL.

Sounds like some people at one of the reselling sites are on vacation, so maybe we passed and we don't even know it.

I've tried contacting the concierge team, and they just keep saying "be patient"...

My point was giving time to close after Disney responds but before a buyer can back out.

So, if you set a closing date right after the 30 pday mark, and Disney takes the 30, it’s would give no time for me as a seller to get the process completed.

Say it’s 40 days…Disney tells us at 35…that gives only 5 days to get closing documents, signed, returned snd close before the buyer could walk. Not seller friendly IMO…I’d never agree for less than 60 days.


ETA: And technically, DVD could still mess with a seller and take to exact closing date and be in the same boat, but if the average time is 30 days, then setting it at 60 gives cushion.

I disagree. I put about 50 days on this recent contract I sold. All those extra 20 days did was give Disney extra time in ROFR (They answered on day 28 anyway) and delayed me getting my $$.

In fact, I was notified the contract would be taken last week and emailed Disney today about the closing docs. The CM respectfully informed be that the closing docs would be sent 5 days prior to the scheduled closing date. I will ALWAYS leave 35-40 days going forward. IMHO it is good for Buyer and Seller to put a little pressure on Disney.

Me too...we're 2 days ahead of you with 03/14 for AKV. They keep telling us they'll let us know as soon as they hear. I feel like someone just forgot about a whole pile of us and went on vacation

You must be buying our contract. Hopefully we hear something soon.

As a seller, you certainly want to do what makes sense to you. For me, its not worth it. Normally, Disney takes around the 30 days...there have only been a few times that they have not since I have been an owner and watched, and most of that has been since 2020. So, IMO, its highly likely they will so I would rather ensure its less likely to pass that date.

In your case, they did indeed answer quickly and had they not taken it, the title company would have had time to prepare the papers and give you and the buyer time to complete it. Now, Disney, when buying, is slow, and I too am waiting on money, but I am still glad there was time built in had it passed.

My fastest decision was made in 8 days (November 2020).

I agree! Sent 3/11 and still waiting. Whoever decides our timeframe must be on a long vacation

Haha a really long one. Not that I'm not happy that our 2nd contract passed but it's so frustrating seeing all these others from way after passing (heck even if they're being taken at least they know their fate). We really need our first one to go through since that is 160 points...not much we can do with our 50. Plus our title company is short handed right now so closing docs are going to be at least 2 weeks. I thought I had patience but I've learned through this I really don't
