ROFR Thread July to Sept 2020 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

[Lorana]

Just found out that Disney waived ROFR on our contract.

Bryan Burmeister---$93-$21030-210-SSR-Oct-0/18, 0/19, 300/20, 210/21- sent 8/24, passed 9/24

I imagine this one just squeaked by, based on what else has been taken. Just goes to show that no one can predict Disney's process.



I'll just leave this here, to indicate how I imagine it goes......

The L14 resorts DO have resale restrictions: you cannot use them at Riviera, the new DL Tower, and any future resorts. You cannot use their points for DCL, ABD, Disney Collections, Concierge Collections.

Those restrictions may not matter to many people, as they may have no interest in future resorts so long as the L14 remain, and the use of points for anything other than DVC is not a good use of points, but I just want to point out that there ARE resale restrictions out there for the L14. As we get closer towards 2042 - which admittedly is 22 years away so is a crazy long time - those restrictions may matter more and more, especially as we see what the landscape of new resorts are.

I’ll just add that in 10 years, many of those 2042 resorts will be selling for less than RIV, I bet,

But, we have people paying $130 for BCV, which will not hold resale value due to it expiring when it does,

So, yeah, all these will impact at one time or another and most will decide what matters most.

Do you have an international seller?

We do not. I didn't want to deal with extra uncertainty. We actually passed on an international contract based on some things I had read on here.

 

[berti13]

That's great news! I think yours is the first sub $100 per point SSR contract to pass without an international seller that I've seen on this board since ROFR started back up. I had one taken at $91 and have a $96 pp pending. This gives me a bit of hope.

I hope you get your second one. If Disney passed on mine, then it should pass yours too.

I've had a contract taken, so I know the disappointment.

 

[Bryan Burmeister]

It's always random and generally your odds are good. I'd never pay more just thinking it'll help "get it through". Best to just submit your best offer. Then, if it gets bought back, submit another.

I agree with you generally, the only exception was my last contract which was right before the new restrictions. In that case I padded the number, because I really wanted the option to book at newer resorts.

I hope this bodes well for us. I have a $94 SSR 400pt contract that was sent on 9/1. Already had one taken in August. Really hoping this one passes!

bb419---$146-$17110-118-PVB-March- 131/20, 118/21, 118/22- seller pays 2020 dues, sent 8/11

Well I passed ROFR a couple of weeks ago and signed my closing docs and sent my payment 2 days and found out the seller is backing out on my contract this morning. Super bummed! Not a good first try at buying resale.

 

[limace]

Oh no!!! I’m so sorry.

I'm surprised that this is allowed?

 

[Brittni Bouse]

I'm surprised that this is allowed?

I was shocked too and said that to them. Apparently I'm getting my money back and a part of the seller's commission along with a $200 credit towards a different purchase. Still a bummer for sure though I was hoping to use my points in a few months and thought this was a good deal for exactly what I want.

Glad getting some sort of consolation. Sorry going through this. If the seller is reading this: That was a “rear end” move in my opinion. Not nice.

All the broker can do is charge them the commission and return a buyers funds. I mean, someone could try to force the sale, but the cost of that would not make it worth it for a timeshare.

Maybe the sellers had a loan to pay off and thought they’d have funds to do so and something happened that prevented that.
