Closing Time!!

[beourguest2009]

I am struggling to get the seller to return paperwork at all...or even act like they are going too. They have had it a week today. Best information I can get is that they are a couple going through a divorce and that they are "reaching out to their lawyer to get an update." If you have changed your mind and don't want to sell just tell us! It is frustrating.

Right? I am at 3 weeks today... I specifically asked if they had cold feet and was told no. I’ll give it to the end of the week...

My seller took just over a month to return their docs. Very frustrating for sure. All the title company could tell me was they were waiting on the seller. I didn't need details of the exact cause of delay but just knowing the seller was still onboard would have been a nice update. And to think we felt bad for taking a week to return ours. (We were at Disney when closing docs were sent and had to wait until we got back home) Hopefully you get some good news soon!

My contract says 45 days past estoppel date. Does your say that? Or have another time period? My understanding is that as the buyer you are out of luck until that date. They can walk away though...

I had to call the broker because the title company wasn't answering any of my questions. They were surprised at how quickly it was from start to finish. They did say that Disney is running at about 2 1/2 to 3 weeks to send out the paperwork. I'm okay with that since I'm not using the points this year. Just wanted to know where it was in the process.

OK. You're going to hate me, but I have to say it. From offer to close on a resale contract in less than 30 days is great and really underscores how so many buyers need to just relax.

As a buyer (yes, I've been there) I know it feels like it was taking forever, but seriously... <30 is amazing. I kind of understand the title company pushing your requests for information to the back burner.

LOL!! I honestly don't hate you. I know, I know. I have no patience in anything. LOL!! That's my biggest flaw in life.

Yeah, I do to. Especially when I talked to the broker and they explained it to me that they let the brokers break the news to their clients.

Just got a note that the sellers returned their paperwork! Excited to get more points!!

Wow you really lucked out. I think this is the fastest I've ever seen a resale in the few months I've been looking. 1 month from start to finish. Is this your first contract? Others have said that you can call member admin to get your login if you don't want to wait the couple weeks for your welcome packet from Disney.

That's the same thing my broker said. She said that this is the fastest that she's ever seen one close.

This is my first contract. I'm actually fine with waiting for the welcome packet. I don't have any trips planned for the future. Well, not until May. I guess my sellers were really motivated and got all of their paperwork in quickly.

Delay with seller returning closing docs since they were going through divorce and "had to talk to attorney." I researched it and they hadn't paid 2018 dues. Disney put a lien on the property on 6/26. They put it up for sale on the 6/28. I am glad it is done now but I will believe it when I see BLT on my member dashboard. I am an existing member as I bought OKW direct first.

This is a great closing time! On our last buy we took a week to get our docs back in as I had warned the title company that DH is a pilot and gone four days at a time and wouldn’t you know closing docs arrived an hour before he left on a Tuesday and he got home Friday so it was Monday before we could get them signed and a cashiers check sent.

We have points in our account!!! Overall the process from start to finish was fairly quick I think. And that's with the seller taking up half the time returning closing docs. Also lucky that this was our first attempt at resale. So happy!

We are now just waiting for Disney to send our welcome package, which I was told is about 2 weeks. I will update when we receive it.

Your time frame is the same as mine for the closing and deed recording. Now we are just waiting for Disney to issue their paperwork. Lol.

FA is struggling this transaction and apparently the woman who was great, has just left. I was told my transaction was close last Friday or Monday, I gave her until today before reaching out as it was still not recorded. She must have seen my e-mail and got on it as it was recorded at 9:30am this morning. Sigh...Now to wait for points!

Glad you closed! I'm about a week behind you (used FA as well). Got notification on Monday that seller's returned docs and we would close 2-4 days. Hoping it doesn't go into next week but if FA is struggling with yours... doesn't bode well with others.
