ROFR Thread January to March 2019 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

[TexasChick123]

We just heard our Poly contact closed today. It was sent on 2/15, passed ROFR 3/4 and closed 3/18. Everything has been super smooth and surprisingly easy.

This is our first contact, so what sort of time frame are we looking at before we get our member info from DVC, so we can start using those points?

This thread will tell you the current time frames for everything:

Good luck with First American Title, HappilyEverAfter2007 ~ they are horrendous It will be 8 weeks tomorrow since my contract passed ROFR and it still has not closed It took over 7 weeks just to get the closing documents My other title companies were fabulous, efficient and quick but not this one

Oh my gracious!!! I had read that requesting an alternative title company was an option but of course that was after we passed ROFR and were already moving forward. I have also read the horror stories. My broker said 2-3 weeks to get he closing docs and that they do this all of the time so not to be concerned, yet these other title companies are knocking them out so much faster. It is driving me insane. Hope you close soon!!!

I agree! A savings of over $10,000 from buying direct is definitely not chump change!

Still waiting here on Day 20...

Still waiting here on Day 20...

I feel your pain. Our last contract passed ROFR on the 29th day. We’re only on day 7 for our current contract. Best of luck!

Day 21 for our 2nd attempt.....hoping for some Happy News and Pixie Dust tomorrow for all of us waiting!

This is the fastest ROFR I've experienced through DVC.

That is fast!

i have had my first 2 attempts at Resale taken. Broker is trying to convince me with email, stats, etc. that I am pricing low and that's why they are getting ROFR'd. I told him I have seen plenty on the boards that have passed (AKV $100 to $110) in a lower price range, and he said "beware of what you read on the boards....we have 3000 sale in the past month, so our numbers are solid".....that may be, but I still think it is luck of the draw, and perhaps a little about the use year we went for (feb or March)

It is luck of the draw. Anyone know why UY matters

 

[motherof5]

I received the same thing in the mail shortly after we had a contract taken in rofr which I thought was interesting timing as well since we have been staying at DVC resorts for the past 1-2 years and now decided to buy. I have a contract that recently passed rofr but not technically an owner yet so called and spoke to a guide to get my gift card. No idea if he knew we had a contract that passed rofr or not and I didn’t disclose it. The best part is Disney accidentally emailed me two different gift cards today!!

Lucky you!

 

[motherof5]

I just had my contract pass ROFR at 107.50 per point, at AKV with 140 points, March use year with 140 available immediately. Offer what you are comfortable with.

Congratulations

Good luck! AKV is so worth the wait. I'm 10 days in for 50 more points, also August. When my dd was young and in school, we usually went in August, and it was great!

I would think because folks thinking they'd use the points for spring breaks would go with Feb/Mar UY.
