Closing Time!!

[Lorana]

I have a question for everyone. How do you know when your deed is recorded? Does your agent email or is there a website that you can check?

You can search for your deed being recorded on the Orange County records website:

Thanks! I appreciate the help.

I have an international seller too. I returned my docs on 8/26 but the seller couldn't get an appointment to get notarized until 9/4. They said they will return their docs via FedEx immediately. The seller has been extremely responsive so I'm hoping that the title company receives all the paperwork by next Tuesday. I'm getting the impression that everything is done and the moment they receive the docs, they will settle.

EDIT: Oops, I was too slow with my reply

For Disney World DVC Resorts you can check the Orange County Comptroller website to see when your deed is recorded: https://or.occompt.com/recorder/web/

It might take up to a week for your deed to show up though, but usually is faster than that.

Passed ROFR on my BCV contract on 8/24/20, estoppel was received on 8/27/20 - Fidelity says to expect closing paperwork on 9/3/20, so roughly 2 weeks from passing ROFR to closing paperwork (using First American), hopefully seller is quick to return theirs too. Will see! Not the fastest but definitely not the slowest either. Will update with all of my details once I get and return the closing paperwork.

So I asked but didn't get any real timeframes from recent sellers here. But, for sellers, from closing date how long until the contract is removed from your membership. I had 2 closings as a seller....8/10 and 8/21 and ALL the contracts are still in my membership, even the 3 weeks ago closing. I suppose the day the remove from my membership they will list it (without points) in the buyers membership...same day??? So looks like, based on buyers upthread, we should be within the next week. On the 8/10 one anyway.

Just another reminder that we now ask that the link to the broker is posted, even if you believe it is an approved site,

This ensures that any updates to the filter can be applied. Thanks so much!

My sold contract closed on 6/26, and it didn’t leave my membership until about 5 weeks later. I assume it leaves the seller on the same day it shows up for the buyer,

I’ve been searching every day and decided to click your link to search YET again... and my deed was actually just recorded!
I’m so excited. I was waiting for over a month for the sellers to return their documents, and now zee deed is recorded!

I need to go back to check my dates but I just needed to share with fellow Disney fans. My husband doesn’t like Disney so no excitement from him.
I got the email to set up my account today. We are first time members so I’m super excited to create my acct and start playing around on the website when I get home from work!

Glad things are moving for you! I will say first American was quick to respond to my inquiry. Just a little concerned though. 12 days after ROFR, no estoppel yet. I see most get notified within a few days but some I’ve seen on this thread taking a month or more. The waiting continues

Wow, hope your estoppel comes through soon!

Who did you contact at First American ( https://www.firstam.com/ )? I asked Fidelity Resales ( https://fidelityresales.com/ ) for contact info at First American, but they just want me to go through my broker at Fidelity. This is the opposite to my experience with https://magicvacationtitle.com/ where I had an email address for them and they were contacting me every step of the way.

EDIT- I just used the "Contact us" form on the First American website. It would be nice if they told us how to logon to their website as it is supposed to give us a status on closing docs, etc.

EDIT- Is this how we're supposed to mention companies in this thread? With a Link to the company each post? Not trying to be snarky - honestly am making sure I am doing this correctly

I emailed the first American agent that provided the opening docs and escrow info to me

Oh, I did not get an email from First American ( https://www.firstam.com/ ) about that - that email came from someone at Fidelity Resales ( https://fidelityresales.com/ ). Interesting... Well maybe they will reply to me with someone I can talk to!

Hello Everyone! i have seen mixed things about how you get your first membership number to be able to create the online profile. Does this come through email or mail?

They send you two emails, one with an ID and another with an activation code. Once you log in you get your membership number. Use your same login as your current Disney account. It took just shy of 3 weeks to get my points after I got my email.

Four months into it so far. Now waiting on Disney for DVC account update and points posting.
