The "Waiting for ROFR" support group thread

[HolidayRoad]

On the closing front-

So far no paperwork has arrived. Closing date given to me by Nancy is April 9th.

Ed, I was a tad worried about ROFR since when I talked to Bernard, Disney only had 3 points available with my UY and I was worried they may ROFR my contract for someone elses waitlist. However, I did make it through and they still have no points..

well that's a little scary for me.

They have no June UY points...and they didn't take mine at ROFR.

You're gonna be fine!

I called last week after you and Tammy got through and they had nothing. My wife says I'm not allowed to call until Friday because she doesn't want to upset anybody! By the way, I see that your husband and myself have recently joined the same "Dis Dads Club" over on another thread. How cool it is that your married to the real Christopher Robin!!!!

I know! It's only been since we went to WDW last April (his 1st trip!) that he's started telling people that's his name. He's so proud of it now! When I first met him, he told me that his name was Butch! I knew that wasn't his real name. He finally told me that his "given" name was Christopher. I asked him what was wrong with that? He said nothing....that it wasn't his first name that he didn't like. It was his first and middle name TOGETHER that he didn't like!

I think that's cool. I can understand however, growing up with that could be an issue around the school yard. It's only during our second childhood do we grow to appreciate stuff like that.

Good news for me today! I received an email bright & early today at work…my BWV passed ROFR!

They said to be patient because this is a very busy time for Disney & they may be behind getting the information to the title company.

Excellent news! Join us in sharing closing stories.

Have you gotten a closing date yet?

I'm thinking there will be a wave of folks off the "waiting" list this week!

BWV- here we come!

 

[tink6137130]

I haven’t been given a closing date yet….this is a quote from the email “At this point in time we are waiting to receive estoppels from Disney, which take about 2-3 weeks to arrive. Once the estoppels are received, the title company will send out the closing documents. At that point all funds will be due. I will keep you posted as we continue through with this process.”

Not sure what estoppels are???

 

[tammymacb]

That makes two of us..

I had the opportunity to ask Nancy today, and forgot to.

BTW, I did call today to see if I could move up my closing date. Just like I expected, the date can't be guarenteed. Well, at least I tried.

Well the DVCJuneUYBWV50ptContractThatIsn'tStripped is my oyster...now I just need to find the pearl...

Congratulation! That's great news. I saw where you wrote your stuff went in on the 21st of February, so if things go in any kind of an order I have to be getting close here! I am happy for you and I will now remove you from the list. Once again the rest of us would like you to check in on us every now and then as we need your support.

Thank you! I'm not sure if all the contracts work this way but I actually signed the contract & faxed back early 2-14-08 am...for some reason I decided to call & ask when it was sent to Disney. That's when I found out it went a week later.

This is our first, hopefully first, purchase. We go to WDW pretty much every year since new years 1999/2000 (now that was a crowd). We have stayed at all the moderates at least once along with Wilderness Lodge. We have been toying with the idea of buying for a long time, took the tours talked to people who own and even people who didn't like the experience and sold their DVC points. We finally find ourselves in the position to take the plunge. How about you? You own already or a first timer?

We bought at SSR last year, and we love it there. We originally thought about adding on more points there, but we love BWV's too, and I loved the idea of owning a both locations...hopefully, we will!!

CONGRATS!!! You're lucky!!

Well after reading the thread "rofr section II" I decided to call TTS to change my price per point from $65 to $67 for HHI. Hopefully this will work better. The seller was thrilled and signed the new contract immediately. TTS sent the contract to disney today to begin the rofr process. They told me it could be 30 days. So I guess my official waiting starts today.

 

[tammymacb]

Good luck to everyone ....My guess is Wednesday will be a good day..

BTW, I for one, love this thread

 

[disneymotherof3]

Good morning all my fellow DVCer's in waiting! How's everyone holding up? Let's get a question going to help pass the time!

Since our "homes" or "soon to be homes" have a full kitchen in them, are you more likely to eat in the room or still eat out?

For us, we're still planning on eating out quite a bit when we make our next trip. Even though they've changed it, we're still planning on doing the DDP. We are going to eat in a couple night though. Probably something easy like spaghetti.

How about you?

Let's hope we have some more good news today!
