ROFR Thread July to Sept 2022 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

[baileykw]

is this an international seller?

No, it was not an international seller.

Good luck. $127 seems like it has a chance for OKW.

Thank you!!

I'm not so sure, but in 26 years I've never lost a contract to ROFR (as a buyer). If I counted right we're at 19 resales. DVC has taken 4 in ROFR (as the seller). We got lots of deals early in covid and flipped most of them (2042's) in the past year.

Buy loaded at a deal, better yet buy *twins*, rent expiring points, use a couple years points, strip and sell at a profit. Rinse and repeat. Crazy, sure, but we've done better with DVC than our 401K as of late!

 

[MICKIMINI]

They were laying off on the extended contracts but that seems to have changed recently. Hope that strategy was short lived. Rooting for you! Love OKW!

Thank you!!

My track record is pretty good...DH just lets me run with it. So far, we've had lots of points to enjoy some pretty awesome trips. I've been waiting for Oct OKWE contracts that fit my *formula* and can live with our direct OKWE. It's yet to be seen if DVC will let me have it LOL!

Oh wow this makes our AKV contract currently in ROFR look pitiful. We offered $132 for 210 points and only 195 are left for 2022.

That makes it even better! Congrats on passing!

Member services just quoted me 4-6 weeks from deed to points.

Twins... to pay closing costs just once, increasing savings?

 

[CaptainAmerica]

Baaaahahahaha her supervisor just got back to her and quoted 6-8 weeks.

 

[MICKIMINI]

Twins... to pay closing costs just once, increasing savings?

Yes. We've done it three times, actually four. One was *mismatched* in size (100/150) but still a huge savings in closing (about 40%). It is the best deal with smaller contracts but a savings nonetheless. In the past we've bought 25/25, 50/50, 40/40 and 100/150. The latest was two AKV's 40 pointers closing two days ago. Always a score IMO!

I have no words...that are printable anyway. That is crazy!

Yikes! I missed most of this but is that because it's Aulani? Sorry to hear it.

 

[keirabella2012]

Have you heard back on your OKW that was in ROFR yet?

Yes, just did, it was taken today.

Is this after the deed is loaded on your account?

That sucks.... did you say the magic words - "I really want to book a room at my home resort and the dates we are looking at are just outside of the 7 month booking window and I'd love to use my home resort priority before I no longer have that window and can loose the room I want"

The first MS rep who helped me pretty much coached me to say that (they implied that that is the magic statement that makes them want to load them within 24 hours after they load the deed). They weren't able to help me that first day, but were able to help the following day.

Edit - if you just closed/recorded than you should be able to get your points in 3 to 4 weeks using the above approach....

Updated!

I couldn't add some because the string was formatted differently than what I can put on the list.

I couldn't add others because the total cost did not include closing costs, even if the seller is paying maintenance fees.

If you are not in Category A or Category B, please let me know and I will add you right away!

This contract is in both the passed and taken, but it was indeed taken as per the original poster. The title company sent in error a notification that it had passed so MrsDfromTN updated the post. Not sure if you saw that. Thank you

Dang it!!! My OKW is $116/point. I will probably look and put in another offer in 3 weeks just to have one loaded and ready.

I didn’t say that exact thing today but said something similar. The CM sounded like she was going to load the points and then I got a canned response. She was really nice though. If it helps CaptainAmerica at all, I tried yesterday too and got the several weeks reply but the CM today told me that the points should be loaded in 5-7 business days. She said if I don’t see them in the 5-7 timeframe then to contact them again about loading the points.

Editing because I feel like I should add that I am trying to use the points to book at the end of the month/beginning of September. I have a Spring Break trip booked but I want to use the points from the new contract instead.
