Spinster Travel---$137-$4039-25-OKW(E)-Sep-0/20, 0/21, 13/22, 25/23- sent 5/12

I was totally going to pick up a small direct contract and then this poppped up. Score - not sure how ROFR will go

At some point I wonder whether a contract is too small for Disney to bother. Either way nice find!

The back and forth I've had with some agents the past few months has been exhausting. I don't care that it's loaded - in fact I already knew that before I made the offer I made. Just pass it on to the seller and let them decide whether they want that contract sitting there another 38 days would ya?

I have shared this before but some sellers have directed brokers not to bring offers lower than a certain point. I have done that.

I appreciate that. I think the response then should simply be that the seller is not interested. And for what it's worth 2 sellers wound up accepting offers I had made that were initially brushed off by agents with condescending "this is how DVC works" sellsplaining and me finally and firmly requesting they pass the offer on or reject the offer explicitly.

Well said! There should be a button that says "lady, this isn't my first rodeo, I know how ROFR works, do you want my deposit or not?"

You can probably find a seller in the $115-$120 with all the listings but problem is passing ROFR.

Personally, I would rather just wait for a fair price that might pass but is on the border which is around $130-$135 now a days.

We thought our $136 SSR was safe, but nope. Disney took that back too. We have another one waiting in ROFR at $132. I fully expect Disney to take it, but I’m hoping their SSR buy backs will cool off just as fast as they heated up.

Disney has taken our $125 and $136, but our broken said many $130s passed. We have nothing but time to play the ROFR game.

We need more of you.

So got the first of our 2 emails to activate our membership. I know the second one will come in 2-4 hours, then I'll wait a day or two and request points be added to our account via chat. I know all this because of the wonderful tips and advice from this board. We only closed 12 days ago, so this seems super fast to me also. BCV here we come.

So I can chat with DVC to have my points added? I had no idea!

It's not 100% success rate but it's usually pretty good.

It worked for me both times I tried!

It also has to be at least 24 hours after your contract is loaded. The CM said the system won't let them add points into after 24 hours.

 

[Redheadprincess]

I’m not holding my breath. If I was a BCV owner, I wouldn’t sell for less than $160pp

If they need to sell they may not have a choice in a few months. The value is that resort is going to go down. I'm just glad we got in at $150 & $145pp this spring.

Hahaha at the very least I’m helping out some sellers

After toying with VGF resale, decided prices were just not worth it and added on at VGF today direct. In celebration, bought this little item as the lone wolf representing #teamfancy.

Congratulations! We are definitely team fancy too!

Got an update email from my concierge this morning! Opened it...and..."Just letting you know we are still waiting for a decision from Disney in the process of ROFR." Hmmmmmph.

I hate these emails! I want to write back “If you don’t have anything exciting to say, don’t say anything at all”

This right here is the reason why resale prices need to drop for it to compete with direct.

So I have a newbie question. We are impatiently waiting for our sellers to send in their documents so we can close. Once they do that how long is it usually til we get our member number from DVC and can get our points loaded? (This one will be our first contract...then hopefully we'll have a 2nd one if our other one passes ROFR this time)

Been taking a few weeks.

Thank you! Will it be quicker if we already have our member number and get our 2nd contract through? Hoping we can get our points in time before the 7 month window opens.

Never has been for me. Process is the same.
