I found a Hyatt ts online. Owner wants $1,000 plus all costs associated with sale. We submitted with LT Transfers and now Hyatt has answered saying they will purchase at the existing offer. Is there ANYTHING I can do?

No, there is nothing you can do. Hyatt has first right of refusal.

Would it have helped if the buyer included all the closing costs in the purchase price inflating the price but stating that they would absorb all additional costs.

No. Depending on the property, they still will ROFR.

Maybe we lost out on a Beach House due to low price , Hyatt ROFR so found another one right away for 1,000 more and got it. It was still a great deal. We own 3 Hyatt's and that was the only one that Hyatt bought back. Keep trying.

Wow, Hyatt exercised RoFR recently?

I'm sorry, that is completely unexpected. I would be interested to hear what week number it was as well.

WOW! This is very surprising. I’m curious which property and week number?

The only loophole I can think of is to get the date Hyatt received the ROFR letter and the date Hyatt answered it. If Hyatt took more than 30 days (15 for Aspen and Park Hyatt), you can make a case they were outside their ROFR window.

This also happened to me with beach house last month. I would’ve gotten 2000 points with it.
I was so disappointed.

Hyatt waived ROFR on my 2 bed / 2 bath, week 51 (2200 points) at Coconut Plantation 2 weeks ago. $6500 plus closing costs. I'm still in the closing process.

Can you tell us which week # and what Hyatt resort you purchased at?

it was Key West (race boat week 44) for 2000 points annually MF was around 1500 and they were going to transfer their 2020 points of 2000 as well. It was a great deal, the owner just wanted to get out of it. It was my first ts transaction and I've been looking since December 2019 for a good deal. Next time I will inflate a ridiculous number so Hyatt refuses LOL.

Eduardo, so sorry you did not get this week, that would have been a stellar deal to only pay $1K for a Platinum week

Would you not have to show proof of purchase price?

I know it can be frustrating to deal with, however, [to my family] the Hyatt Residence Club has absolutely been worth the time and money. I suggest you keep looking, my guess are more good deals will be coming... probably right after they send out the maintenance fee bills.

Hi Eduardo, try Craiglist. Time to time, I see Hyatt and other TS for sale. There is a way to do a across the country search for what ever your looking for and it brings up the local where the item is being sold! Keep trying! Don't give up! It's all about numbers and timing!

I would agree with Sapper, my family loves my Hyatt the best of all my TS's
