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

[3 DD love princesses]

have not seen any 7/23 ROFR passes yet.... did they break the 3 day streak??

I hope not would be awesome if they catch up and are back to 30 days

 

[Deeleebaker]

21 days here. 30 days would be fabulous.

Me in March: I'll wait until covid is "over" next year before bidding on a contract
Me in July: Offer accepted on 3rd contract.

I hope you don’t need those points TOO soon. You should expect 3-4 months at minimum with up to 60 days ROFR, several weeks to close and then 4-6 weeks for the points to show up in your account. Although maybe you will get lucky and the process will speed up!

Thankfully I will be booking in February for January 2022!

Wow, so much for my optimism - sounds like nobody really got their ROFR today (2 people were notified today, but likely passed ROFR yesterday). I wonder if there will be any passing tomorrow...

All signed documents were sent to the broker on 6/13 which was a saturday, so i just assumed that they would be sent to ROFR on Monday 6/15, so it is possible that it was sent 6/13 to ROFR and not 6/15.

Has anyone noticed that there is one particular resale sight, from which I purchased, by the way, that everyone who listens to the podcast knows, whose prices are consistently and considerably higher? There never appears to be a single good deal. Or am I wrong and its just my perception? Is it ok to even discuss this on these boards? If not, my apologies!

I see prices all over the place as well between sites. I think if the seller accepts your asking price or willing to negotiate, then it doesn't really matter how high they list it. The market will tell them if they price too high and get no offers or they aren't in a rush to sell and leave it out there for the one buyer to take it. That's the resale market for you.

It just seems to totally depend. www.dvcresalemarket.com has really good BCV prices right now compared to everyone else but their SSR prices are top of the heap. Meanwhile www.fidelityresales.com is exactly the opposite - higher BCV, lower SSR. www.DVCstore.com which is who I’m assuming you’re talking about seems somewhere in the middle. But my advice to anyone would be to ignore listing prices, decide what a contract is worth to you, and offer that. Either they’ll come down or they won’t, and if they don’t and it’s still there a few weeks later, try again. What a few delusional owners think they deserve for their DVC contract shouldn’t set the market, a balance between supply and demand should.

Hey all I had to update my post unfortunately! There ended up being an error (that I kind of suspected, related to banking/borrowing) so I backed out. =). The brokers were great though and would totally work with them again, and it was still a great deal I think just not the contract for me.

Sorry for those who quoted my post since I can't edit those posts that are now inaccurate.

Hopefully it works with the dates someone else will purchase/visit and they get a deal =)

 

[lovethesun12]

Wow--I hardly even look there because their prices usually seem too high! May I ask what the original price was? Such a good deal for you!

PM'ed you since I had to edit/delete the strand I posted and didn't want to throw anyone off =)

What was the error? Would you mind sharing?

 

[lovethesun12]

Basically it was missing 2021 pts (they were borrowed into '20). After some thought I think I must have overlooked it in the original posting, but noticed it in the contract, which led to an amended contract that was sent. Again I'm not sure but after it was sent I was already skeptical the points were there and questioning if I was the one who actually made the error initially so I wasn't surprised when they let me know. They were really great about it and I don't think any error would have been made at all if I had looked carefully initially. It was still hard to let it go because it was still fairly priced in my opinion but it wasn't a good fit for me anymore.

Exciting, we were notified 6/15 they were sent. Fingers crossed we're soon!

Another quiet day - are we back to just Tuesday / Wednesday approvals? Was looking really positive late last week and early this week with approvals every day but I guess that was the exception not the rule.

Just wanted to add that with the current fluctuations in the USD exchange rate I saved another $1,300

That brings the total cost pp down to just shy of $135 Compared to what I was looking at earlier

Not a bad deal
