Your Accepted DVC Sales Offer: The Steps from Agreement to Closing
Once your DVC Sales offer is accepted, the journey to Disney Vacation Club ownership enters its next phase. This stage covers the agreement, deposit, Disney’s review, and the steps leading to a successful closing. Knowing each step in advance helps you stay on track and prepared.
Signing the DVC Purchase Agreement
After an offer is accepted, the DVC Sales platform generates a detailed purchase agreement. This document outlines all the key terms agreed upon by you and the buyer, such as contract price, closing costs, and available points. Both parties receive the agreement electronically and can sign through a secure link on their device. As soon as both signatures are in place, the contract is legally binding.
Submitting the Deposit and Escrow Details
The buyer is required to submit a deposit of 10% of the contract price (with a $1,000 minimum) within 24 hours of signing the agreement. This deposit is securely held in escrow by the title company. Payment links are sent by email and can also be accessed under the “My Agreements” section on the DVC Sales dashboard. If the deposit isn’t received on time, the agreement may be canceled. For more details on deposit payments, visit How to Pay the DVC Deposit.
Secure Online Payments
Most buyers use a credit card via a secure online portal, though wire transfers are also available for larger amounts. Always confirm details with your assigned title agent or visit the Why DVC Sales page for more on transaction security.
Disney’s Right of First Refusal (ROFR)
Once the agreement is signed and the deposit is in escrow, the contract is submitted to Disney for their Right of First Refusal review. This process usually takes 20–30 days. If Disney waives ROFR, the contract moves forward as planned. If Disney exercises ROFR, it becomes the buyer, and the original buyer receives a full refund. To learn more about ROFR, visit the official Disney FAQ.
Finalizing the DVC Sale
After the ROFR is waived, the title company prepares and sends the closing documents to both parties. The buyer then submits the final payment, the deed is recorded, and the sale is officially complete. You’ll find ongoing status updates in real time on your DVC Sales dashboard, and the admin team coordinates with the title company throughout.
Ongoing Support and Communication
Throughout the entire process, your DVC Sales dashboard offers clear updates. If you have questions or need help at any point, support is available seven days a week. You can always reach out for personalized assistance via the DVC Sales contact page.
