How to Cancel a DVC Resale Offer with Confidence
If you’ve made a DVC resale offer but are now reconsidering, you’re not alone. Many buyers wonder how to rescind an offer, especially as circumstances and preferences change during the decision process. Understanding your rights and the correct steps is key to protecting your interests and avoiding complications.
Cancelling Before the Contract Is Signed
You can cancel your DVC resale offer at any point before both parties sign the purchase agreement. Offers typically remain valid for 24 hours. If the seller has not yet responded, log into your DVC Sales profile, locate your offer, and click the Remove Offer button. The process is instant, fully automated, and doesn’t require you to contact anyone.
After Seller Acceptance Before Signing
Even if the seller accepts your offer, you still have time to change your mind up until both signatures are secured on the purchase contract. Once both parties have signed, the agreement becomes legally binding, so it’s crucial to act quickly if you decide not to proceed. If you have questions about a particular contract or property, it’s wise to consult the DVC Sales team or review the helpful resources on their website before signing.
Florida’s 10-Day Rescission Period
Florida law offers robust buyer protection for DVC resale contracts. Once a contract is fully executed (signed by both buyer and seller), you still have a 10-day rescission period. During this time, you can cancel the agreement for any reason and receive a full refund of your deposit. This legal right ensures buyers have adequate time to review the contract and make informed decisions. You can learn more about DVC policies on the official Disney Vacation Club FAQ.
Important Considerations and Best Practices
While the DVC resale system is designed to allow reasonable cancellations, submitting and rescinding multiple offers repeatedly can result in account restrictions. It’s best to be thoughtful before placing an offer. Use the resources at DVC Sales to compare listings, check DVC resale listings, or use tools like the DVC Point Calculator to ensure your decision fits your needs.
