4TH QUARTER – DVC RESALE AND ROFR REPORT

By Vacation Club Life / January 8, 2022

This article contains our Fourth Quarter DVC resale report which includes Right of First Refusal (ROFR) and average sale prices from offers that were accepted and sent to ROFR during the months of October, November, and December 2021.

Average sale prices continued in an upward trend for most resorts as Disney continues to exercise their Right of First Refusal at higher rates. We did see a slight shift in focus this quarter, with less Saratoga Springs contracts exercised and more contacts at the older, “classic,” resorts being exercised. This typically indicates that an increase in Direct-Developer prices for the older resorts is coming in the new year. 

Garden Views Realty (ResalesDVC) sold just over 18,000 DVC points this quarter with 37% of those being exercised by Disney’s Right of First Refusal. This is one of the highest ROFR rates we’ve seen in decades. As we settle into 2022, ROFR rates should come down a bit and stabilize at a more regular rate. 

What is Disney’s Right of First Refusal?
The purpose of Disney’s Right of First Refusal (ROFR) is to control the value of their property. When there is an accepted offer and a signed contract, DVC will do an analysis of the terms of the contract and decide if they wish to “step in” as the buyer. The criteria DVC uses for ROFR is not public information but one important factor for exercising ROFR would be if they feel the selling price, including who pays closing costs and maintenance and taxes, is below the target price they have established.

October-December 2021
When viewing the data below, keep in mind that individual sale prices can easily vary based on the size of the contract (in points) and the current point availability of the contract – “loaded” (having current points + banked points) or “stripped” (having no current points). Smaller point contracts tend to sell for around $10-$15 per point higher due to high demand and lower inventory. Prices below do not include closing costs or annual dues – two separate features to the sale terms.
