Once you close how long does it take to show up on the OCC site?

 

[Lakegirl]

From what I have read usually 1-2 days. I closed on Friday so hoping it shows up tomorrow!!

Yay!! So happy for you Lakegirl. Now let's hope we both get our membership numbers soon so we can FINALLY book.

We showed up today! Closed on Thursday. Found out that our "broker" jumped ship to another firm during our sale. I only found out b/c I am on her new company's email list. No communication from her or the brokerage firm. Thankfully our title company (Angela - ***) was super helpful and stepped up in a big way to walk us through our first DVC purchase.

Anyone know if there is somewhere to file a formal complaint against a broker and her company and/or a title trade association to write to sing the title agents praises?

 

[anmay27]

Wow. So sorry that happened to you Wallygirl. Thankfully you are almost through the process.

Got a thin envelope today with our membership number in it. Letter says we can call for a reservation and that our membership packet should arrive in 10-14 days.

So 2 weeks from when our deed was recorded we received our number. I never called Disney to check on it.

 

[DisMom829]

Got a letter today also! calling to check availability for November! So exciting!!

 

[dpjl]

Disney was busy! I got my letter today too! Congrats to everyone. I was trying hard to wait to call and they beat me. Small August vacation booked. DGD's 16th birthday on 8/16th booked 1 bed at OKW yeah!

Wow, that's exciting news for the rest of us waiting! This is the first time in this thread that people have received their membership numbers via mail before the time to call. Hopefully that happens to all of us waiting!!

DisMom and ChicagoShannon when did your deeds appear on occ?

 

[wallygirl]

Wow. So sorry that happened to you Wallygirl. Thankfully you are almost through the process.

Thanks, glad you are almost through too! Just frustrated getting charged a non-negotiable $195 for no service. There are too many intangibles and lack of transparency in this process.

Sounds like you were using Sharon at Fidelity. I received that email too. Fidelity just lost the only agent that knew how to do their job.
