ROFR Thread July- Sept 2017 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

Not open for further replies.
Just had an offer accepted, and I look forward to posting the details once the contract is signed and submitted! I do have a formatting question though. I'm simultaneously purchasing 2 identical 100 pt oct contracts from the same seller with 1 set of closing costs. Each contract has 100 banked points from '16 which I intend to rent out, essentially lowering my 'cost' by $14/point.

1. Do I post these as separate contracts and list 50% closing costs on each? Or, do I list the total deal combined? (same home resort of course)
2. How do I convey the rental income 'savings' so I don't look like 'That guy' (Laugh-Floor :earsboy: ) who paid an amount that makes you go o_O o_Oo_Oo_O (but instead, just looking like the guy that makes you go o_Ox1)

I still can't believe I'm doing this! Not regretting, just surprised. I've gone from my first-ever trip to Disney in December 2015 to buying into DVC less than 2 full years later. I blame DISboards for being too darn helpful.
 
My observation is that Disney is more likely to take DEC contracts at the moment. Our first offer recently was on a DEC contract and it was taken. Our second offer was for a FEB contract and it passed ROFR. Both very similar in that they had all 2017 points and a few 2016 points banked. Both at $91 per point. I'm also seeing AKV contracts being reduced in some instances so not sure if that's an indicator that prices have peaked or not. This is just my experience of course.

My 100 point AKV contract has a December UY and it passed back in early August and was $89/point. Maybe I got lucky!
 
Okay, everything is up to date. I'm slammed at work lately and am off to Disney early Friday, so I won't be updating this thread until after Canadian Thanksgiving. You all get to Google to find out when that is, he he he.

Two things: I will make the new thread for October- December when I get back. If you guys don't see one, PLEASE do not make a new one unless you are volunteering to take over the thread permanently!

And on that note- is there anyone who might be interested in taking up the mantle as of January? I've been looking after our collective baby for two years now, and maybe someone else would like a turn :p?

If so, please PM me and let me know.

I'll volunteer!........

....... to keep the formatting tool up and running for the next thread runner. I hope that helps. :D
 
UPDATE: elle-jay---$90-$10395-110-SSR-Feb-0/16, 6/17, 110/18, 110/19- sent 9/15, taken 9/28

:( I thought $90 for SSR would pass. Back to the beginning to find another.

This is actually 2 100 pt contracts. Once I rent out 200 2016 points it will effectively reduce my price per point to 125

This is my first contract and although I've done far, far too much research and considered DVC from so many different angles, I still feel like I'm flying by the seat of my pants

Best of luck! I think many of us feel like we are flying by the seat of our pants so you are in good company!
 
Dean1953--$95-$2,325.00-25-OKW-Jun-0/17, 25/18, 25/19-sent 9/17

So much for waiting after the last cancellation. Hopefully, this one passes.

I must be psychic! I called my resale agent about 15 minutes ago and they had just received an email at 9:30 that Disney had passed on their ROFR. It shouldn't take more than a month to get my DVC ID number and officially be a DVC owner.
 
toolioiep ---$60-$13350-210-HHI-Aug-0/15, 0/16, 0/17, 210/18-seller pays MF '17- sent 9/27

No clue what is passing/not passing at HHI as there doesn't seem to by much recent info in this thread - so fingers crossed!
 
WallE71---$89-$14240-160-AKV-MAR-0/16, 117/17, 160/18-Buyer pays MF '17-sent 9/18 passed 9/28!!!

We are excited!!! Our first one did not pass, but this one did and has more points and better use year for us and was cheaper to boot. Wins all around.

That's how it goes.. always a silver lining. Congrats!

Could you click the link in post #1 to reformat that for the list? It's close, but not quite ;)

This is our first contract. We have tried to bid on a few others, but someone else always got to it first. We are hoping it passes rofr.
