Have you tried Maui Resort Resales that just opened up at Whalers Village?
Sure haven't tried them, but I think Syed works with other brokers.

They have a web site with listings if you are looking for Ocean Front at KOR
OF Center is different from OF Deluxe.

But I am considering OF at Westin North. The units are somewhat smaller than the OFC units at Westin South. Smaller tubs, smaller shower (no seat for shaving legs), smaller closet, smaller living/dining and smaller kitchen.

Would I be safe from ROFR by offering $23,000 on a listing at North, OF?

Doesn't sound like it. I will have some data next week.

WKORVN - 2 Bedroom Oceanfront, Annual - Westin exercised their ROFR again! This one was for $25,000. :mad:
I had this one in at the same time as my previous one that they exercised their ROFR for $26,000 so it wasn't completely unexpected.
One of the timeshare salesman told me in February that they were starting to exercise the ROFR on more units. Of course coming from the salesman, I was skeptical.
But he is obviously correct or a coincidence.

Marriott needs points inventory to bridge the gap till they can get one of their City Collection properties in the trust. I suspect they sold a lot of inventory during the post pandemic travel surge.

Unless it has changed - there is no ROFR for any of the WSJ phases.
I'm sure you're right and there was no change - I posted when my purchase closed and assumed that it needed to pass ROFR at some point.
