ROFR Thread July to Sept 2019 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

At $17-18 pp I assume you mean renting them directly VS using a third-party?

Yes. I happen to have a friend who needed to rent. Part of why I bought early was to ensure she gets an 11 month window.

Let us know if this sneaks through, good price for today's market.

Not sure how you are getting $80 after renting 300 points? For AKL you will most likely get $17-$18 per point at the 11 month window but you are also required to pay the dues on those which is $7/pt. So in the end you will get about $10/pt to apply to the price you paid for the contract, so around $93/pt.

If the DVC websites are willing to rent/transfer for like $17? How are some expecting to get above that? Like I even saw a post asking for $19. I thought, why wouldn't a renter be better off going through 1 of the big websites?

Y’all, ROFR is killing me. I get it now.

Ugh... me too!

Yeah, I see that now and I just had my contract forwarded Oct 2. Been looking at the trends for Disney buybacks and am crossing fingers and lighting candles.

 

[ScubaCat]

As an owner, these people annoy me because they clog up a reservation that should be any of ours to actually use.

We call these people scumbags in our house.

Easy solution : book your room first

LOL didn't even make it 24hr did you? I've been so caught up in it I think my wife is already sick of Disney.

Guilty .

My stress level is beyond high and only rising. DVC is my happy place at the moment .

Yinn - in your case, no. That’s a coveted week and your only option for renting.

I’m referring to a renter on **********s who booked a popular week in December two years ago and tried to rent it to me for over $19pp. She didn’t own fixed week, saw her talking on the DVC owner threads about how she makes profit off of her DVC every year.

That’s not what it’s for and those are the weeks we like to go, so, I will just have to beat her to the rooms we want.

It’s unfortunate that I have to do that. I do not like those who misuse things. Ruins it for the rest of us.

I also don't like that I will have to walk a reservation. If people used it the way it was supposed to be used, no one would have to waste time with that nonsense.

Seriously? Who cares? Boo-hoo...you know how many DVC memberships there are at each resort?! You can do whatever the hell you want with it....

I just don’t like greedy people. Talk to me when you see the week you couldn’t get listed for rent. My opinion.

Scummy. Equivalent of the jerk who buys the coveted Christmas toy with no intention of using it and selling it for more $ to desperate parents.

Perhaps this is you and I’ve hit a nerve?

My Aulani contract, it's been 2 weeks, but I didn't know it was a 2 step process. Neub

Hello eMoneyBug The purpose of this email is to keep you updated through the buying process. ROFR is a two-step process. We are emailing today to let you know that you've made it through step one and your contract is now headed to committee, where they determine which contracts they want to purchase. We will let you know as soon as we hear from them. Please call or email with any questions.

I agree, that would be annoying. I just think realistically, those rooms are hard to acquire, so odds are the people looking to strictly score them for renting are far outweighed by the people who actually want to stay there. So my guess is that it would be really difficult to pull that off consistently. Or I'm completely wrong and people do this all the time and that stinks.

Not commenting on the original situation of someone who was bragging on social media that they were making money renting out spec reservations, but if I had booked a VGF standard studio over Xmas and then suddenly found out I couldn't go, I would probably be trying to rent that reservation out as is rather than canceling and trying to rent out the points to any number of renters.

Everyone knows step 1 is admitting you have a problem.

Hi, my name is Yinn and I have ROFR anxiety.

 

[Breesus]

Absolutely will. 2 weeks in and still no word yet. Went in with expectation it will not pass, but who knows.

Speaking of the low PVB prices, I just got an offer of $115/pp for our 150 point contract we have listed. We didn't take it, but I'm sure they were simply trying to lowball several of the listings and see who would bite.

I'm quite curious how low PVB will slip, especially as a seller!

What do you have it listed at?

That’s about the lowest I’ve heard.
