ROFR Thread Oct to Dec 2020 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

This is essentially 96 a point due to the dues being paid by seller.

I make this $19,225/175=$110ppt or $108ppt when adjusted for those extra points.
A lot of people have their own ways to work it out, I prefer the adjusted figure that accounts for total points in the contract.
There was a contract for $107 taken in Jul-Sep

What’s not in doubt is this can only push SSR contracts up until DVC ease off their buying push.

Do you think having a large number of banked points is effecting Disney’s decision? They might be mindful of the fact they’re effectively over sold for next year given the number of banked points floating about...

Don't think it matters. Disney buys what it needs. Disney also buys what's cheap. They'll buy SSR for a few months, get enough inventory, then move onto something else. They were buying alot of AKL pre covid, now almost nothing unless its really cheap. People may disagree, but this is what I think.

I’m wondering if it matters what unit those points are located in. I recently added on direct at SSR with a Dec UY. They didn’t initially have any points available. I happened to mention that I would be okay with splitting it into multiple contracts. They were able to meet that request right away with three smaller contracts in three different units.

I really think it is impossible to predict what Disney will or won’t take. We purchased a double loaded contract at $5 below what people were advising to get through ROFR and it got through. Domestic seller. If we had listened to many people on the boards, we would have paid $5 or $10 pp more, plus we would have reimbursed for member fees. We did not reimburse for the banked points or for the current year and it got through. On the flip side, I have seen people purchasing for a much higher price and getting ROFRed. So, I would just get the best deal possible, knowing that regardless of what you are paying, you could get ROFRed. That’s just resale.

Can I ask you a weird question? We’re you on a waiting list with this dealer?

 

[gisele2]

i was thrilled until i realized highly likely to be taken so i mentally prepared myself for the loss and strategized for my next offer.

Good spirit.

March-June was the time to get into SSR. Seems like anything $97 and under is at best 50/50 to pass ROFR and of course decreasing odds of passing for every dollar drop in price. It's almost like if you have a contract for $95 a point do you send it through, or just make the price at $100 to have better chances of passing? I know that sounds crazy but with these 45-60 day waits for ROFR it could make sense to spend the extra 5% especially if the contract you are bidding for has everything you want (UY, point amount, banked etc).

And now this:
Tarvaris---$103-$19225-175-SSR-Aug-0/19, 293/20, 175/21, 175/22-Seller pays MF ‘20- sent 9/18, taken 10/26
Maybe $105 is a safer target for SSR ??

SSR seems to really be something they want. Sorry to those losing it right now.

 

[mom2elle]

I don’t know what to think about all of these SSR’s being taken. I have one out there, submitted 9/11 (110 pts, Dec UY), but I offered $115/point. It’s fully loaded (220 pts in Dec 20) and seller pays 2020 MFs.... I’m just waiting.....

 

[bp2412]

Shoot- I'm not liking my odds at my SSR going through at $100pp lately

It seems like Disney is going to be pushing sold out resorts more than ever before. If we are 2 years from a new DVC project starting up again I would think they don't want to sell out of Riviera right away. Or the need to push it as a first choice is less important now since nothing new is coming (as of now that we know of)

To add, they are not opening all the hotels either so having 65% of the rooms at RIV available for cash guests, it’s a huge saver for the company as RIV being DVC has to be open,

IMO, with Reflections scrapped for now, is I’m pretty confident the sales timeline for getting RIV sold is much different,

I know many of the divisions of the company have altered plans since the pandemic. DVD is no different,

S0, SSR is a great alternative to have as a back up at $165 vs, RIV at $195.

never had to do this before but any tips on how you get your points into an existing account after closing? Obviously, someone can wait to be contacted by Disney but feels like a nudge might be warranted with everything going on. Things can slip threw the cracks. Thanks,

To get the contract loaded, you have to contact Membership Administration and last I knew, they were only accepting emails.

Once it’s there, then MS can load the points and I found if you nudge them and tell them you need to get booked it helps.

I did email MA when my BLT closed just to make sure they had my current member number, but never heard from them. You might have better luck!

Day 76 and my day finally came. Holy pixie dust we passed!

Jbreen2010---$98-$25899-240-SSR-Feb-0/19, 0/20, 480/21, 240/22- sent 8/11, passed 10/26


Today was actually our closing date & I talked to both Title and broker this morning. We had not received ROFR or Estoppel. I think some strings were pulled and they reached out to DVC again today to remind them that our contract stated today was closing....and POOOOF.

We got ROFR waiver AND Estoppel....both issued this afternoon. So I can close as soon as title company finishes paperwork.

Congratulations! That can’t all be a coincidence. I’m glad they finally enforced your rights!

Although i was ready, I didn't expect this today, but just received notification from title company - VGF taken (20 days).
Have not heard anything regarding my BRV contract from 9/24
