I’ll add this because sometimes I see this asked: the contract isn’t showing on my dashboard yet. I can see it under my member information on my profile and under “view” when I search for a room. I also didn’t get an email. It just showed up.

Days Total: 97 very long and excruciating days :) Got rooms booked for our February trip already...although we will have to switch rooms twice as of now since 2 days in the middle of our trip were not available. But I will be stalking the site for sure. We also have splurged for our September trip since we have 225 points that will be expiring at the end of November and after all this I think we deserve to splurge instead of renting haha :) Good luck everyone that is still waiting, hopefully it won't be too much longer.

Excited to have my Aulani contract pass ROFR today. Probably too much to hope to have everything done by the end of August, but excited to be that much closer. This is our first contract, so I assume there will be some added time for our account to be setup.

Pretty much 3 months from offer going to ROFR to points in the account. CM was happy to load the points. We do have a 7 month window booking I want to make for March break and mentioned that, but I think he would have done it anyways.

That’s awesome! I just ended a chat to ask about points. I didn’t directly ask for the points to be loaded but told him I was hoping for the points to be loaded by September (for a Spring Break trip) and the CM told me that it could take weeks for the points to be loaded but he thought they could be loaded by September. Maybe I should try again and be more direct?
 
I figured I had waited 2.5 weeks for them to load, which was enough time. I opened with “ I have a resale contract that is showing, but the points aren’t there. We are planning on booking at the 7 months window, which is Aug 11, is there anyway you can help me?”

Good luck 🥳

I was going to wait out the loading of points, but finally broke down and contacted MS via chat. The CM was super helpful and had it done within 30 minutes. Totally pain-free. Excited to start planning our 2023 trips with the extra points!

Checked with MS again today about loading points, no dice. It sounded like they were going to do it and then got a canned response after they looked into it. Oh well. At least they’re always really friendly.
 
Please forgive me if this is answered already somewhere, I just can’t find it. Currently have our first contract in ROFR and stalking here and ROFR board like a crazy person. Why do some buyers receive closing docs almost immediately and others seem to take many weeks to a month? Thanks, all.

Different title companies have different timelines within their business…staffing, etc.
