alright. 15 days in. Any minute now on right of first refusal.....right? I know, I know. Still have a couple of weeks.

Not that I'm in the market for Aulani... but WOW, where did you find that gem ?!?

There's 2 very well priced low point Aulani contracts that just popped up on Fidelity this morning! I don't want a June use year but they do look tempting.

Ours was only submitted on Monday and it feels like time is dragging on. By 15 days, I'm sure your battery is draining from checking your inbox

My last contract only took 15 days to pass. I sent a SSR 2/4 and I still haven't heard anything. It's been 21 days

I don't think it's about the particular broker, it's about the seller. I negotiate until I find a price I am comfortable paying. Key is, you have to be able to walk away.

I sent in an AKL on 2/4 also. The wait is killing me!

Oh it's also the broker- some of them have unrealistic expectations about what contracts are worth and give those opinions to their clients. If a contract is listed $50/point above what I'm willing to pay, I'm a lot less likely to bid on one than a contract that's $15-20 above what I want to pay.

Agreed. I felt comfortable bidding $7 less on an already decent priced contract. Not sure I'd even attempt it on a very overpriced one. I feel like I'd be setting myself up for disappointment when my offer was declined.

We are 2/1 and it has been excruciating. Each day that goes by is like doing a bigger shot of Beverly

There are between 21-23 days right now on deciding.

I just learned about the subsidized contracts. Any tips on how to track those down? Is it just daily stalking of the dvc listing site?

You sign up for brokers email of new listings. Let your fav broker what you are looking for. Sometimes especially Fidelity doesn’t have it listed as subsidized but you do the math you know. I don’t even remember how I came across mine.

They decided on some 2/3 contracts a day or two ago. So you are up next.

I really hope so. Doesn't seem like anyone heard anything yet today

I would drink a big gulp full of Beverly if it meant I could find out if my contract passed

Unfortunately yes. I have like 10 different resale sites saved to my bookmark and stalk them everyday. And many websites don’t make it easy to identify the subsidized ones. Usually Fidelity and dvdresalemarket labels them clearly.

Thank you! Are the subsidized accounts in such demand that you pretty much need to jump on them and offer full price? Any idea what the going rates are for them currently?

Everything is negotiable! But probably anything less than 100 points will sell immediately.
I see many in 130s lately.

You can always negotiate. I offered $120pp for a subsidized contract that was listed for $145pp. I’m currently awaiting ROFR at $125pp. It all depends on the size and loaded/stripped nature of the contract.

you should also set up text/email alerts with brokers.
