ROFR Thread July to Sept 2022 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

$70/point

I’ve been in an ongoing conversation with a broker about another 210 point contract but the seller wants 90+ a point. I’m not paying that much!

Yep $70 is super low even for HHI. That's a literal no brainer for the DIS team. The market is at what mid 80's? That was someones unloading for a will distribution or to ditch the dues knowing Disney would take it. That 20% markdown would be like BLT at $136. lol Always worth a shot though!!

I see a 140 a point CCV out there but thankfully it’s not my UY so I cant help feed the ROFR monster…….

I’ll make you feel even better. It’s one of those auction listings where the reserve price isn’t met yet, as with all of those other auction listings.

Question for the experts: Does/Can Disney buy resale contracts from brokers to flip?

I’ve had a few sellers willing to take $70-75. The broker I’ve been talking to also seems to think large HHI contracts should be valued in the mid to high $70s. I’ve seen it passing in the low 70s. Between the dues and the short term, it’s hard to bid $80+

Those auctions seem to rarely meet the minimum reserve. I’m not sure it’s working as a marketing tool.

Every time they buy an okw Contract they turn it into a 2057 so they are working on the problem.

And every original owner who sells has to sign a quit claim deed before it can go through so even the 2042 contracts out there just go back to Disney it will be interesting

Agreed. I also don’t like that they charge a $250 “buyers premium” admin fee. Bad enough that the reserve prices are presumably equivalent to what regular resale listings are going for, then they want to charge an admin fee on top. Hardly a deal!

Totally agree! Just another timeshare sales tactic. I ignore those listings.

can someone please tell me how they find a contract from an international seller? I’ve been looking at contracts for months on multiple sights but haven’t seen any listed as international seller.

Not sure how I'd feel about paying a fee to "win" a contract I might still lose in ROFR. Do you only pay the auction fee if it passes ROFR?

How do you find a auction site? Never heard of it but interested.

And I've been regularly checking my spam folder as well. Just in case an important email may have been incorrectly categorized.

I did this with my first contract years ago. Good luck.

Love that you helped a seller! There's a 270 "not stripped" contract for OKW out there for $105 and it's been reduced 3 or 4 times...Anybody looking for a one in a million shot at cheap points should help them out, keep watching it drop and feel bad. Maybe OKW goes sub $100 now? So big and spacious it's just that bus

I came across a $95/point OKW contract earlier this month.

It might be a bad idea to send a second small contract when I haven’t had my first (100 pointer) accepted… esp bc this would be my first DVC and set the tone for UY (a subject I’m already wary about) but I’m feeling like both have a decent shot. We’ll see.

I have 3 contracts UY Feb/March/April. It hasn't been bad and I usually travel Feb so works out great.

Let's try this again.

Went in with a low offer, and somewhat offended the seller. They gave the broker the "I know what I got" speech and only came down a smidge. I figured its about the going rate and I don't have to worry much about ROFR this time.

Hoping you get it!

Question for the experts: Does/Can Disney buy resale contracts from brokers to flip?

Sure, but it still has to go through ROFR. But seriously, I can't think of any reason why they can't buy resale contracts. And just like the ones they buy back with ROFR, I assume that they flip them.

 

[motherof5]

I came across a $95/point OKW contract earlier this month.

Wow that's cheaper than I paid 5 years ago. Wonder if it went through.
