Hi everyone. I have been a frequent visitor to the Forums but not have posted. I love to read about DVC and everyone's experiences. My DH and myself took the tour of DVC in Dec. and fell in love with idea of owning a piece of the magic. After returning home we decided to research resales on the web. On April 4, 2008, we made an offer for a resale contract for 210 points at OKW . The offer was accepted by the sellers and was sent to Disney on April 7. Today I just received an e-mail from our broker and WE PASSED ROFR! We are very excited. Now the waiting for the estoppel documents from Disney and the final closing begins. Our broker said Disney is way backed up and the documents will not be sent to the closing agent for about 3 weeks. However, we can wait for that. Just passing ROFR is a great load off. Looking to hearing that "Welcome Home".

Congratulations!! I wish you joined us earlier but you know what they say better late than never! The estoppel wait is no joke either but yes, passing ROFR is definitely the main stumbling block. Congratulations again, I hope to read you around the boards.

Congratulations. Hope mine is processed that fast.

Yours would not happen to be the $68/pt (sept) from A timeshare broker?

If it were it would give me some extra hope for mine.

ROFR isn't such a bad word after all! But estoppel is!!!!

 

[Princess Amy Lyn]

Congrats to all who have passed ROFR!!!
Still waiting to hear about estoppel stuff....how long is the wait usually?? And, once you get the papers how long do you have to turn them back in (especially the seller)?? Is there a time limit?? Just curious....
Uncle is doing good....in a lot of pain yesterday, better today!
Ed maybe get a slip on ankle brace....I had a really bad sprain a few years ago...they said I needed surgery, but at the time with 3 small children, and that I needed to stay off of it for 6 weeks, I declined. I would wear a slip on brace for longer walking times and it really helped! It just gives a little extra support, so it won't hurt as bad! Just a thought (you can get them at most drugstores).

Newgirl...ever figure the picture thing out??? And I've been meaning to ask...what's up with the fried pie???????????

All of my disney pics are on my husbands laptop.. so I have not done it yet. (thanks for your help I will get them someday) The tag fairy got me on a thread about the old days and the things we miss. I said I miss the old McDonald fried apple pies..YUM! Any fans of the show Ed? They did a show about missing them too so I know I am not the only one. Anyway, I said I don't care if I die early (because they are SOOO unhealthy) just bring back the fried pies!!

Laxmom, Laxdad and Laxlad are proud to announce that they are past ROFR!!
On to the next list please!!!

Girl, you made it through ROFR twice. Of course, the second time was the best! I'm so happy for you.

Now...for all of you patient waiters.....

I got an email on Friday that my paperwork was going in....TTS emailed me yesterday. . .

My member number is already in the Disney system. I called at lunchtime today and found out!!

Lets see who are the patient ones in the group now...

 

[Verandah Man]

I saw an e-mail from my broker in my Inbox a few minutes ago, and I got all excited, that was until I opened it and saw it was just a listing of other DVC resale properties up for sale..........

The wait continues..........

That's wonderful! What did it take about 4 days? Please let us all know when your points show up. I can't wait to close on Monday. I've been pretty patient but the waiting is hard.

Sorry. Not my contract. Our offer was $74 per point for 210 points for 2007 and 210 for 2008, Dec. UY. Seller was asking $75 per point but we offered $74 and they took it. We think we got a good deal. We are paying the closing costs and we are splitting the 2008 MF.

Good luck with your offer.

Whoo Hooooo!!!!!

Congrats laxes! You got a great contract! Welcome Home! Perhaps we'll see each other around the resort!

For sure we'll see each other around here while we wait for the closing docs!

 

[Laxmom]

Yep, I think Disney is much kinder than Marriott!!

It was a great day all around. We lost my DH's Dad on Feb 1 and then his Step-Dad 3 weeks later. We went to HHI to recover from the first and then came the second. Anyway, Laxlad lost his cell phone at the funeral home. We searched high and low. Gave up. He was going to go get a new one this week. (It has been 6 weeks) The funeral home called today and they found it!!

It was on that trip that DH and I decided we needed an annual getaway for the 2 of us. Today we got our getaway! Now I gotta figure out how to add HHI to my signature!

gotcha...I can't say I have the same passion about them as you but I'd eat it if you get one!

Good Morning Sunshines!

Boy, last night was quiet...of course AI was on but...

Work again. However, I did find out I have the day off on Friday! I'll have a day off now, in my marathon of 12...Oh, I cannot wait til Friday!

I need to call Disney again when I'm on break today, I need my pass code so I can at least check out the online portion of DVC. As soon as my points come, I've got some ressies to make

QOTD- If you could have anything you wanted for dinner tonite. What would it be?

My vote would be some good fried fish a la The Rose and Crown...
