Should I raise my price?

[CPTJAK]

I had an offer for a loaded (12 forward SSR contract 150pt Sept use) accepted at 63 pp plus closing/2013 mfs.

My question is should I raise my offer price after it was accepted, just wondering if it will be taken or not.

You will make one buyer very sad and they may back out. Can you do it, yes, is it "ethical", that is something you need to decide. Personally I would not do it and if I was a buyer and it happend to me I would walk.

This DID happen to me and I walked away. This just goes to show that not only buyers need to do their homework so do sellers!!! Not sure who if anyone advised you as to the pricing but it seems on the lower end for todays market. I know when I listed my SSR contract back in beginning of March (only 2013 points and forward) I was advised to list mid 60's and probably get lower 60's - I listed for 66.00PP and got 63.00 in a few days. The market has taken off since then and SSR loaded are being listed for low 70's and getting it.

With that being said I personally would not go up on my price after I accepted an offer. I consider that a contract and would not want anyone to do this to me.

Yep, I agree. I would leave the price where it's at. Someone got the deal they wanted and is looking forward to their contract that you agreed to. I would walk away if someone did that to me.

I think its kinda shady to back away but you are probably losing close to $1k. All I see SSR selling for now is $70 and above.

I may be wrong, but I got the impression that the OP is the buyer and is asking if they should up their offer to lower the risk of ROFR.

If that's the case, I don't actually think you have a huge chance of being taken. Disney has not been doing many ROFR exercises on SSR lately, and the last one recorded that I saw was $59/pt. If you want some extra insurance, you could take it up another $2-3 and I think your chances of having it taken would be extremely low.

It's really just a matter of how much it's worth to you to not have to find another contract. If it's worth a lot, then sure, raise the offer. I can't imagine the seller will turn it down.

Are you the buyer or seller? From your post I couldn't tell if you are the buyer, hoping to raise their per point offer so that Disney does not take the contract in ROFR, or the seller who is having regrets about not asking more for a contract you listed for sale.

So are you buying or selling?

Either way my answer would be leave things as they are.

I agree. The post was ambiguous enough that i was confused

Sorry,

I am the buyer and was thinking of giving the seller more money per point to increase my chances of the contract getting by Disney ROFR.

I think you are fine. I passed in Feb/March timeframe at $62 at SSR

I would do what you feel comfortable with. There was a similar one that was taken recently (1mamma2three---$62-$10,671-150-SSR-Sept-300/'13, 150/'14, 150/'15 -sent 6/26, taken 7/23). Yours may pass though. It's hard to say. Has it already been submitted to Disney? I know our broker told us they submitted it the day we agreed (whether that actually happens that fast might different story though).

There is no clear threshold for what Disney takes back and doesn't take back so no, I would not raise the price. If it is taken then just try again but to offer more than has already been accepted is probably just giving more funds to the seller when not needed.

Dean posted in a separate thread a few days ago that Disney historically has allowed a purchaser/seller to not close out a contract that Disney has exercised ROFR on- that is, not actually sell it to Disney. And to then resubmit for ROFR the same contract, with a higher purchase price.

I have no personal knowledge on this, but generally find Dean to be a true timeshare realty expert. I'd stay at your current offer based on this. Maybe check with your broker to see if they know about this possibility...

I would keep as is & not try to "chase rofr." There are so many SSR contracts out there.

Wow that makes me feel so much better ! You need to pay what you feel comfortable paying. ROFR is tricky and cannot be predicted. The good news is they do not take very many SSR contracts and 63.00PP is not really low (for Disney to snag it) but one never knows what they will do. The one thing I do know is there will always be another contract if they do take this one. I had 2 taken but in the long run the 3rd that was accepted is by far the best for me and my family (price was not the best but # of points UY and loaded!) Good luck

 

[ImagineerTHAT]

Haha...I totally misread that. I see now that they want to up the price to keep it from getting ROFR'd.

In the immortal words of Paul McCartney...speaking words of wisdom, let it be!

We are on day 23 of our ROFR period with an SSR contract. Having spent the last three weeks contemplating it, I have come to the conclusion that losing the contract is not what will tick me off. I am ok with that if it happens. We will find another. What will really annoy me is having to go through another ROFR wait period. It is the ROFR period seemingly always going the full 30 days that is cheesy.

LOL me too, should we blame it on the "english" language

I know we just bought at 62.5/pt--not sure if it will be ROFR'ed but you can relay that concern to the buyer--they are clearly willing to take the risk

Totally agree. I think they should get the 10 day period that a buyer gets for right of recission.
