Essential Tips for Managing Offers and Securing Your DVC Sale
Wondering how to respond to offers on DVC Sales without risking your chance to close the deal? Acting quickly and confidently is crucial for every Disney Vacation Club seller. Here’s what you need to know for a successful sale.
Instant Notaifications for Every Offer
Whenever a buyer submits an offer on your DVC listing, you’ll get notified instantly, by email, text (if enabled), and through a dashboard alert in your DVC Sales account. This allows you to act fast, which is key to keeping interested buyers engaged.
Your Three Offer Response Options
Once logged in, you’ll see three simple choices for each offer:
- Accept: Agree to the proposed price and move forward.
- Counter: Suggest a different price to the buyer.
- Decline: Reject the offer (not recommended).
Why Countering Is Better Than Declining
We generally advise against declining offers outright. Even if a proposal isn’t ideal, countering, even at your full asking price, keeps negotiations alive. This approach puts the next move on the buyer and maintains momentum toward a possible sale.
Act Quickly to Secure the Sale
Many buyers shop around and send offers on several platforms at once, often contracting with the first seller who responds. While DVC Sales can track buyer activity within its own platform, delays in responding could mean missing out if they commit elsewhere.
Plan Your Offer Strategy in Advance
Have a discussion with your spouse or co-owner about the lowest price you’re willing to accept or counter. By deciding on your strategy ahead of time, you’ll be ready to act decisively when the right offer comes in.
Automatic Contracts and Real-Time Updates
When both parties agree on a price, the DVC Sales system will generate the contract automatically for electronic signature. You can follow every stage of the process through real-time dashboard updates.
Get Support from the DVC Sales Team
If you need help evaluating or responding to an offer, the DVC Sales support team is available 7 days a week. Prompt, well-considered replies can make the difference between closing a deal and losing a buyer.
