Closing Time!!

Called today, not in the system yet. Are they a Mon- Fri business? I'm assuming they will be closed for Memorial Day. So guess next day to try is Tuesday?

Has your deed even showed up on OCC's website? You stated earlier that it was sent for recording on 5/19. You are way, way too early to be getting a number from DVC. Allow at least a week and most are reporting 10-14 days.

Look, I understand it is frustrating (believe me, I understand), but people hassling DVC to give them a number is going to cause them to stop giving the number over the phone altogether.

My Deed showed up on OCC on 5/19 also. And geez, if me calling once a day causes a scolding from you, I hope you've chewed out the rear ends of the people that are calling twice a day.

The average wait is 12 days after the deed is recorded. I've seen people start calling at 8 days, and even that seemed unreasonable.

Let me detail this process for you:
After the deed is recorded, it's forwarded to Disney through first-class mail
They're going to put it on someone's desk to be organized
Then they'll assign it to someone and put it at the bottom of their stack.
When that person gets to you deed, person will create a membership for you
Then they'll pass it along to someone who can transfer the points and close out the old account
Then, it will be send to another person to have your website credentials created.

So, after three days, it probably hasn't even reached their mailbox yet.
 
Good news! our deed recorded 5/19 according to OCC. Now to see if I can just wait til next week to call member services. Hoping to book for my grand daughters 16th birthday Aug 16th fingers crossed

Hi, I would like to know if my situation is normal. So we received the closing doc on 04/27 and sent them back the next day (april 28) with the payment. We received the confirmation on april 29 that they had everything (documents from both sides) and they will let us know when our file would be closed. Well we are now may 26, emailed them several time and the answer I got was that they were waiting to heard back from disney.........
so let me put this straight:
2/27- Sent to ROFR
3/24- ROFR Waived
4/27- Final docs received and sent back with the money
4/29 - Confirmation they received sellers, buyers documents and $
5/26- NOTHING, still waiting from disney ???????

Am I missing something ????????
We're from Canada..... maybe that's why....

THANK YOUUUU ;)

Have you checked the OCC site to see if your deed has been recorded?

Probably everything is OK... A couple posts up @mikelan6 posted a similar timeline to your, with the deed being recorded on 4/30 (about the same time yours should have been) and stating that he received his mailer from Disney on 5/22. Being from Canada and with the Memorial Day Weekend possibly slowing things a tad here in the US, you should be getting your mailer soon based on his posted timeline.

Have you checked when your deed was recorded - go to http://or.occompt.com/recorder/web/?
 
Yes I did.... and it's not :(
Closing shouldn't take more than two days. You're at least three weeks past when I would have started calling to figure out what's wrong.

Who's your broker? One other person has said that their broker checks back with Disney before closing, but that's something we've never experienced (at all, anyone on this forum). I'd be raising hell.
 
Here is our timeline:
Sent to ROFR 3/1
Waived 3/24
Final docs received 4/28
Final docs and $ delivered to title company 4/30
Sellers docs delivered 5/6
Closed 5/7
Deed recorded 5/8
Via phone - member number, logon complete, points in account! 5/26
Total from RFOR sent to points ready to book....... 87 days

(now waiting on the contract I sent to ROFR 4/20.....)
 
Thank you for your answers!
My broker was DVC resale market and Title company: Timeshare Titles and more.... anyway I called because they were not responding to my emails and she told me it was a common thing to check back the points status with disney..... But magically my file happened to be on her desk, on the pile that was supposed to be closed today... she said it will be recorded by tomorrow... I'm now crossing my fingers that it's really the case....!

Timeshare Title and More is our broker and they have been horrible. They seem to be the only company that requires that the contract goes back to Disney after all closing docs are received. Everyone else closes the day docs are returned. We've all waited long enough, there is no reason to put a self imposed delay on us!
