Question: What makes a stripped contract intensive for ROFR as opposed to loaded or just intact?

Waiting (inpatiently) for the first ROFR to roll in this week! Fingers crossed they will pass in huge batches this week.

Usually the seller pays for maintenance fees on the points they used. Making it less expensive for DVC to buy back. There is no rhyme or reason why DVC buys back contracts. They probably put them on a wall, put a blindfold on and throw darts at the wall. Whatever contracts they hit they keep it seems. They probably have people looking for certain contracts and just try to fill them.

Here's to hoping the person throwing darts has bad aim!!

For those of you who have gone through this process before, do they seem to review ROFR on the daily, or do they alternate between those and estoppels? My guess is it's a crap shoot and to be patient. I just thought I'd ask.

I last did ROFR back last October and it took a month. Covid really cut down on staff for them then and so my whole process took 67 days from accepted bid to points in account and that was considered pretty fast and smooth. I’d be ecstatic for a 2 week ROFR . Actually they can take as long as they want as if it passes

 

[Red Dog Run]

Oh, yes. Sunnyore is right. I think my 3 were in the forties and one was 54 days in ROFR. It was a long July - October.

Oh wow!! That sounds so painful.

Alternate/Batches. And just when we think we've figured out a pattern, it changes. They know they've got us so there's no rush on their part!!

At the moment there is a waitlist for VGF. I think therefore they pick contracts with points that they can re-sell as direct.

So they would pick contracts with decent numbers of points I imagine so they can break down and resell. But Aug UY direct for VGF is waitlisted, I suspect because they dont have the 2020 points which they would usually give you.
