:stitch: wow thats a pretty sweet deal. congrats. even got the seller to pay for 2020 MF
I saw the listing and bought less than 24 hours after it was up. Got lucky. Always feel weird buying at ask, but I thought it was a good deal and def wanted the April UY and points.
 
but don’t the 2020 maintenance fees count for the points you are given in December of 2020-Nov of 2021?

MF are based on calendar year, not use year. So if no 2019 points were available on a contract with a Dec UY, you’d essentially pay full 2020 MF for that 1 month, then pay 2021 MF in January.
 
Does anyone know if there is a time limit on hearing back from disney on ROFR? I'm starting to think someone has lost my paperwork or my contract still hasn't been sent to disney.

True that MF's are billed on the calendar year but they cover different points for different UY's. You just have to look at how DVC bills the MF's when you purchase direct and it's clearest on a new resort. If Dec 2020 points were the first points you received then even if you purchased in January of 2020 you would have a pro-rated bill for 1 month. Then you'd pay the 2021 MF's that would technically cover 11 months of the Dec 2020 points and 1 month of Dec 2021. Resellers will tell you that if you get the points then you should pay the MF's however - it's just what they have always done.

Just to add, though, Disney doesn’t sell contracts void of current UY points..so with Disney, you still pay only from the date you buy until the end of the year....except for a new resort, then you pay from resort opening, but can’t use points for stays until that date either.
