what a ridiculous counter....Resort: BWV
Contract Size: 160
Asking: $116
Offer: $90
Counter: $114
Yep, that’s an instant walk away, or counter even lower than the original offer. lolwhat a ridiculous counter....
I think $114 is reasonable. I also think BWV is the better deal monetarily.I thought so too, but I did check back with the broker after the contract went pending and they got $114, which I was told was their lowest price point, so I'm clearly way off. I would have maybe come up to $100, it had double points, but I refuse to feel like I'm overpaying for a 2042 resort. I feel like suddenly BWV has become harder to get a deal on than BCV, wondering if the pool closure is somehow skewing peoples' feelings and this is a fleeting thing? Or has the tide turned and more people are realizing that BWV is better?![]()
The price is reasonable, the counter I find less so.I think $114 is reasonable. I also think BWV is the better deal monetarily.
I mean, a counter at least gives the potential buyer info about where the seller stands and an opportunity to make a deal. Would you prefer just a straight no?The price is reasonable, the counter I find less so.
It is worth remembering that the market is not a point, it is a range. If a seller is not in a hurry, it is reasonable to wait a bit to see if they get offers from a wider range. Even looking at the reports in this thread---likely to be the low end of the market---$114 is not completely out of line.I thought so too, but I did check back with the broker after the contract went pending and they got $114, which I was told was their lowest price point, so I'm clearly way off.

Completely agree. I don't believe $114 is unreasonable, it's just higher than I'm willing to pay. Us adding on at BWV is so we can bump up to 2 bedrooms, so it needs to make sense at a certain price per night for us to jump in. The 50 we have are strictly for the cheap studios, and we're more than getting our money's worth out of that contract.It is worth remembering that the market is not a point, it is a range.

That doesn't mean you have to go that high---you absolutely don't---but as long as that's in the reasonable range, a seller might be wiling to wait to get at least close to it.

Yep, I'm branching out and even considering larger contracts at SSR. Today no one gave so much as a counter offer. I hate being patient...I see you are trying something other than SSR, but still what a bummer!

I think it's more likely the recent remodel to the DVC rooms at BWV. Expect a similar price bump at BLT in about a year.I thought so too, but I did check back with the broker after the contract went pending and they got $114, which I was told was their lowest price point, so I'm clearly way off.

you can do a lot better if you keep looking with SSR.I saw a SSR pop up at 94ppp but it was a 120 point contract.
They rejected $145????? In October, there was a listing with an ASKING price of $113. Needless to say, it sold quickly.Resort: CCV

Agreed...I was just being silly as the poster and I had tried offers around $96ish on the same contracts. Hard to convene tone in textyou can do a lot better if you keep looking with SSR.
I would keep going. Two months ago, I bought a small SSR contract with double points for $88.Agreed...I was just being silly as the poster and I had tried offers around $96ish on the same contracts. Hard to convene tone in text![]()
I tapped out and put in an offer on a small contract at BLT. The small SSR contracts I kept finding either were stripped or sellers didn't like my offer. Clearly I was impatient and went a different route. Patience is key and I had a shorter window to make things things happen.I would keep going.
