Not me stalking the ROFR thread for your posts several times a day ...The 250 point contract can not be too far behind and once that passes, we should pass too.

I've got break-even on a Net Present Value basis coming somewhere around 2053 if you never pay for housekeeping.
Impressive chart and analysis but I think the gap widens significantly when you are talking about 1 and 2 bedroom units. We pretty much always get 2 bedrooms and for a week in June that two bedroom at current rates would cost just over $19,000 for the the week starting June 8th. The points for a 2 bedroom villa is 390. The 2 bedroom suites through the hotel do not have laundry or a kitchen which is a huge deal for us. They also don't include free parking. Now the daily housekeeping is certainly nice but I'll take free parking over the housekeeping. All in all I feel the Villas are much superior to the hotel suites. With a delta of $16K between the dues and the rack rate, I think I'm doing pretty good.
The points chart seasonality is wild. That same 2 bedroom in July/August is 526.Impressive chart and analysis but I think the gap widens significantly when you are talking about 1 and 2 bedroom units.

It definitely is but that's still only $4500 in dues vs $20K in hotel rate. It's still pretty much the $16K delta.The points chart seasonality is wild. That same 2 bedroom in July/August is 526.

@ClaraOswald the cost for a 1 bedroom suite for a week starting June 14th is $16.5K right now. Interestingly, the 2 bedroom is only $3K more. The points needed for a 1 bedroom villa is 291.
Closest I've seen is https://dvcsearch.com/ but they don't stop the days on market when one goes to pending, so if something is on the market for 3 days, but in escrow for another 40 as of today, it'll show today as 43 days. BUT you can pull the history on the same site and "some" of them show when it went to pending or if it sold multiple times...Are there any blogs or sites that keep data on ADOM? It feels like there are a lot of stale listings out there.
WDW Couple - first, congrats on your new contracts! Be sure to use the "formatting" tool on page one of this thread (https://rofr.scubacat.net), since the Page One ROFR Summaries have everyone use the same calculations, which include closing costs and maintenance fees paid by Buyer, for the actual dollar amounts?WDW Couple—-$150-$15,000-100-PVB-Oct-100/23,100/24,100/25 - sent 1/18 - PASSED 2/8
While generally I agree with this for studios, it doesn’t necessarily apply to VGC families who have to travel at very specific times of the year.Nobody pays rack rate.

Totally agree. The suites (other than the specialty suites) are vastly inferior to the villas.That's crazy!! I just looked up a 1-bedroom suite on youtube and it doesn't look nearly as good as the 1 bedroom villa. No kitchen, no laundry, no second bathroom...no thanks!!
Well, there's no way that's accurate. Aren't there several times a year when no discount is offered therefore people ARE paying rack rate?
What is ADOM?Are there any blogs or sites that keep data on ADOM? It feels like there are a lot of stale listings out there.
