Closing Time!!

UPDATED: I am reminded (yet again) why Mason is my favorite title company, as I just received closing docs. To compare, that’s only *3 days after passing ROFR.*

in comparison, TRCS took 20 days after passing ROFR to get me closing docs (Passed 6/18, received closing docs 7/8).

I should add that the DVC store and Mason Title were so great to work with, and so quick in all of their responses, I totally loved working with them. I am only frustrated that Disney doesn't even send a form email acknowledging they got your email.
 

I also had an easy time working with the DVC Store and Mason Title. The deed was recorded June 29 so this is week 4 of waiting to get my member ID. I am hoping it’s soon but I say that every day now. We have a trip scheduled for the end of August at CBR and would love to go a couple of days early staying at a DVC resort using some points.

Agreed that I've enjoyed and only worked with Mason. However, I'm at 13 days waiting for closing docs since passing ROFR... apparently still waiting the estoppel from Disney.
 
For us ROFR TO Closing was 7 days
Closing to deed recorded was 3 days but it included a Saturday and Sunday. Now we sit in the Pit of Despair aka waiting for a member ID.

Our deed recorded the day before yours & we still have no contract showing - so slow!!!!
 
Well 16 days after our resale contract was added to our membership our points have still not been loaded. I’ve emailed and haven’t received a reply. I’ve tried to get help via chat twice and have been told that they can’t do anything as the points have to be added by member administration. I will call eventually, but I really could do without an hour waiting on the phone from the UK.

Maybe this is a new direct sale perk. Buy direct and actually get to use your contract in the first three months of ownership.
 
What can I expect now with the time line? We passed our ROFR yesterday (after 41 days), so now we wait for the closing docs (Mason Title) and closing. This seems to can be quite quick, or not?
And then we wait for Disney's membership id and points? This could be a long wait again, right?

It takes around 3 weeks to get the Estopptel from Disney
You both then close. That depends on you and seller.
Then the Deed is recorded, that is quick
It then goes to Disney. That takes around 30-45 days to add
Then your points gets added which is another 2 weeks.

I'm a week after you on deed recording so hopefully soon!
 
ROFR has had a busy week, hopefully that means more people are back in the office and the rest of the process speeds up as well.
I just got an email back..."At this time, due to staffing reductions and the challenges of working remotely, our turnaround time for the queue is taking approximately 6 weeks from the date we receive the documents from the closing company." o_O
