June 2026 ROFR Report

Woooo they ROFR’d that 1500pt VDH monstrosity!

@TheROFRMonster wrong! You took our VGF contract on 6/10.

That's okay...I talked hubby into a larger contract 🤞🏼

Thank you Mr Monster for not gobbling up my VGF contract today after looking at it for 20 days longingly.

Week of 06/13/26 – 06/19/26

Nothing to report. My appetite is patient. The vault is patient. You should be afraid.

Until next Saturday — try not to bid so high. Or do. I love a challenge. — The ROFR Monster

Week of 06/20/26 – 06/26/26

Light pickings. 2 contracts in the satchel and that's all you're getting from me:

• Grand Californian — 2 contracts. avg price: $239

The vault is always hungry. See you Saturday. — The ROFR Monster

Had me at “satchel” 🤣

Thank you ROFR Monster for not taking our 250 BLT contract after staring at it for 21 days! 🤪

As someone selling a contract, I hope that the ROFR Monster wakes up from its long slumber and decides to eat my contract or let it go off to another wonderful home somewhere else... it is definitely slowing the timeline the past few weeks...

Week of 06/27/26 – 07/03/26

I exercised some self-control this week. Just 3 contracts pulled back into the herd:

• Animal Kingdom — 1 contract. avg price: $81
• Disneyland Hotel — 1 contract. avg price: $105
• Grand Californian — 1 contract. avg price: $244

I'll be back next week. Sleep well, buyers. — The ROFR Monster

The June 2026 DVC Resale Market ROFR report is now available, and the overall trend remains consistent with what we've seen throughout the year.

Disney exercised Right of First Refusal on contracts at five resorts this month:

• Old Key West: 3 buybacks

• Grand Californian: 3 buybacks

• Grand Floridian: 2 buybacks

• Animal Kingdom: 1 buyback

• Disneyland Hotel: 1 buyback

The most interesting buyback wasn't necessarily the number—it was the Disneyland Hotel contract itself.

Disney purchased back a 1,500-point Disneyland Hotel contract that sold for $105 per point, or roughly $157,500. While it's unusual to see Disney exercise ROFR on an actively selling resort, this one makes a lot of sense. A contract that size can easily be returned to direct inventory and resold at current direct pricing, making it a very attractive acquisition.

Looking at the broader market, ROFR activity continues to remain relatively low.

Year-to-date through June 2026:

• 63 contracts bought back

• 1,652 contracts sold

• 3.8% buyback rate

• 96.2% waiver rate

The overall buyback rate is also 5.1 percentage points lower than this point in 2025, reinforcing the trend that ROFR has become less of an obstacle for most resale buyers.

Grand Floridian (14.8%) and Old Key West (10.4%) continue to be the primary resorts to watch, while most other resorts have experienced very little buyback activity this year.

Watching/Listening to the podcast I know it has been referenced that the ROFR department is an actual department that has a budget. Did this one VDH blow their budget for their fiscal year? And if so does that mean they could have to let some low price per point contracts slide on by? I would think this one contract would have to have some sort of an impact on their budget.

I doubt $150k contract effects them that much. That is less than 0.075% of their annual revenue.

For a single buyer, this would be a HUGE purchase. When you break it down for Disney, its similar to buying back 6-8 medium contracts, which is not that big of deal for them.

It is interesting to think how their budget works as inventory is revenue generating. If they buy back 1500 points, and they are able to turn them "quickly", it may give them more funds to purchase more contracts.
