Anyone made it through (or not made it through) ROFR recently? - Section IV

[WebmasterDoc]

Quick question, If we want to book BCV for a week starting on 8/16/2012 does the 7 month window start on February 16th or February 1st?
Thanks!

January 16 would be 7 months ahead of an August 16 arrival date.

FWIW (that is, not much) I think yo have a good shot to get past ROFR with this one. Good luck!

If you are booking at less than 7 months out, I'd say, don't get your heart set on BCV. Be happy with SSR, OKW or AKV, and wait list BCV. You might even stalk your preferred ressie online. But if all goes quickly, you might sneak in your reservation, just before that 7 month window opens. If that happens, you have a much better shot at snagging a BCV studio.

My resale was 8 weeks from offer to reservation. I managed to grab a 2BR @ BCV for a spring break trip (3/20-3/27) the week before that 7 month window opened. GL!

Thanks, Valerie! We'll be happy w/ any of those resorts, so we should be good.

Question for Danny's mom, how were you able to get a ressie before your 7 month window? Thanks Tjcat

Question for Danny's mom, how were you able to get a ressie before your 7 month window? Thanks Tjcat

No, no, no, no. I bought BCV points, so I was able to make a HOME RESORT reservation, right before the 7 month window opened and any spring break availability was gobbled up by those wishing to switch from elsewhere,

Thanks Danny's mom sorry I didn't realize that was your home resort, I thought you had some inside information, ( I have been writing a paper for school all day excuse the question please!
Thanks

First DVC purchase - should have done it 10 years/nearly 40 trips ago.


Went to ROFR today:

BWV 250 Feb UY. 45 2012 points banked, all 2013 points.
$65/pt Buyer pays closing. No MFs until 2013.

Hoping to close before 12/31/12 to purchase PAP vouchers for our family of 5 and book BWV stay for August 2013 before 7 month window opens.
