Has anyone noticed the three entries on rofr.net that look to be posted by the same person? They all don’t indicate pass or fail, and prices seem very high. Is someone posting while thinking they are advertising a property for sale? Seems off to me and could throw people off if this is the case.


Any thoughts on adding a column where you could specify how many HGVC points come with the deed for those of us that aren’t savvy on all the properties?

Just passed rofr on an annual platinum lagoon tower 2bdplus, 8,400 points, for a purchase price of $8,400 not including closing costs. Thought it was a decent deal and happy to get it to pass. Would be surprised to see anything fail for the next few months if not more.

The developer of the dB just email me a few weeks ago. This is one of his items which he is working on. It is already in the dB, it just needs to be displayed.

Thanks, I will look into this.

$500 price for 3400 point Ocean Tower Studio (Big Island, Waikoloa, Hawaii) passed Hilton's ROFR last week. Found the listing three weeks ago on Judi Kozlowski's web site. Attempted to add this info to the ROFR database today, but couldn't find Ocean Towers in the Resort pull down lists, so sharing it here. I really appreciate all the TUG contributors here...I've learned a lot.

I added OT to the ROFR db, can you add your information to ensure that I have it loaded correctly. Thanks

Do these listed ROFRs include closing costs such as agent fees, club activation fee, transfer fee, estoppel fee, etc?

I've had two offers accepted in the past 10 days that are now in process and awaiting word on ROFR:

Offer #1:
Kings Land 12,600 pts (EOY-Odd)
Platinum 1BR Premier
Purchase Price: $5,000 + closing costs

Offer #2:
Elara 7000 points Annual
Platinum 1BR Grand
Purchase Price: $5,250 + closing costs

If these go through my purchase price (not incl closing costs) will be under $.80/points and my MF's should be around $.12/point.

Found both of these listings by searching on: http://timesharebrokersmls.com

Both ended up being listings thru Judy K and have worked with Dana in her office.

Went to a HGVC presentation @ Kings Land in 2015 and knew enough going in not to buy retail. Have been lurking around here since and getting a great education. Have greatly benefited by using the MF spreadsheet to identify prospects. The purchase prices I ended up were roughly 35% less than listing prices, but prices that I think are fair to the seller and a value for me and a level that hopefully get through ROFR (will post results on rofr.net). Made firm offers, expressing no interest in negotiating.

Fingers crossed!

I have worked with Judi's office a number of times. Dana for purchases and Jessica for some recent sales. Great to work with. Good luck but, as @GT75 said, really likely to pass at this point.

Cheers.

According to Judy K's office both of these are moving ahead. I'll add them to ROFR.net and update here when they close.

LOL. I actually had an offer in on another KL 12,600 1BR EOYO, but the seller was slow to accept and I moved on to see what I could find in Vegas. I would have really preferred to find a KL EOYE (in addition to the EOYO), but in hindsight I think this is a much better flow of points for us. The ones I’m getting had a reasonable purchase price and low MF’s, so very happy with where we ended up.
