I think it should pass. I think it's a very good price especially since it's an all-in price AND I'm getting a good 2019 week and not paying the 2018 fees. A number of sellers tried to pass those on and I pass on those deals. I'm likely to use the week and combine with a great offer I just got from Hyatt to preview a 2BDRM OF for $999 for 5 days. So it looks like Maui is in our future for 2019

How'd you get the $999?
 
How'd you get the $999?
Email solicitation. I had done a presentation back in 2014 and said no so was surprised to receive but verry happy. For $999 you get a 2BDRM OF and a basic rental car. Now i have to make it work with everyone's schedule with my DD looking for her first job out of college but at the very least me and the mrs. and friends will be going.
 
Plus Resort fees and parking? Five or six 'nights'
6 days, 5 nights; doesn't include parking but does include resort fees. I just got the same solicitation by way of snail mail.

6 days 5 nights. I don't see anything labelled fine print that says I'm responsible for parking. the T&Cs are below. It would be BS if they charged me for parking when it's not specifically mentioned.


"Accommodations are for an oceanfront 2-bedroom, 2-bath suite at Hyatt Residence Club Maui, which includes a king bed, guest room with queen bed, queen-size sleeper sofa, private lanai, washer and dryer, and fully-equipped kitchen. Promoted rate includes daily resort fee. You will be responsible for any incidental expenses such as transportation, meals, activities, additional expenses and taxes, where applicable.


Any certificates or premiums offered in conjunction with your vacation package will be honored after completion of the sales presentation. Your package includes an Avis time and mileage credit for up to $185 for up to six pre-paid rental days in an intermediate-sized vehicle during your vacation travel dates. Operating expenses including taxes, gas, insurance coverage, upgrades, damages and optional services are your responsibility. You must present a valid driver's license and meet standard Avis rental requirements. This credit is non-transferable and may not be combined with any other offers or coupons, and is not substitutable. Any unused portion of this credit will be forfeited. Car rental company subject to change.
 
I am a happy camper! I purchased a two bedroom platinum annual Timber Lodge unit and it passed ROFR at $4200. I didn't think it would pass. Super happy.

What season, summer or winter?

Any season but holiday weeks were higher priced is what we were told.

Very interesting!
My snail mail T & C reads: "You are responsible for any incidental expenses such as parking, transportation, meals, activities and taxes, where applicable."
 
Bought a Desert Springs II for $1 that I never dreamed would go through. The real estate broker told me yesterday that the transfer agent ordered the Deed which he says means it passed ROFR. I hope so.

I got a 2 BR lockoff, weeks 22-27 or 36-49.

Congratulations! Where did you find your unit for $1.00? I've had 3 ROFR's within the last two months.
 
Marriott Waiohai, Platinum Annual 2br, Island View: Marriott exercised ROFR with contract sales price of : $7500

That's a surprise....(not sarcastic).

Wow -- I would have thought that would pass. Interesting....thanks for posting this!

Best,

Yup.
WKORV OFD, passed at $21k.
Waiohai IV, failed at $7500

Hm. Go figure.
 
Hope I haven’t jinxed anything by posting as Marriott hasn’t yet recorded the transfer. We have received the Quit Claim recorded by the state of HI..
We purchased a Marriott Maui Ocean Club Lahaina Villas 2BR annual Ocean View for $10;600 plus $400 closing costs. All in at 11k even. I was a little surprised it passed ROFR but very glad to own at MOC. Hoping to get transferred in time to get a summer week 2019..

That's borderline theft. Very nice.

That’s sounds like a great price. Congratulations! Enjoy.

Ebay. I also just bought a Tahoe floating week that I am waiting on to find out whether it went through

Probably because it wasn't high season. But congrats.
 
Yippie! After three unsuccessful attempts to purchase with Marriott, the ROFR was just waived for me to purchase at Grande Vista. The price was $775 not including the closing cost via Magical Reality. The Deed is being prepared. I have another waiting at Grand Chateau via Ebay. The first attempt was refused. I've added my information to the data base on ROFR.net.
 
I can’t find the post on how to check on the status of a ROFR. My closing agent is away until the 18th, but I’d like to find out the status on a Grand Chateau EBay purchase.

You can't really find it out on your own. There isn't a web site or link to look it up. Your Closing Agent needs to tell you.
 
Ok, I thought I had found something on TUG a while back detailing how to go to the registrar of deeds for the county where the timeshare is located. Thanks
