Closing Time!!

[sgrap]

I know the wait is almost over but currently at 109 days and it's frustrating.

I agree, that is nuts! We just bought our first contract this winter and it was 72 from offer to member #. We are on our 2nd contract now and waiting for estoppel, and I know the wait will be much longer. Getting crazy . . . .but it will still be worth it!

You are so close! I wish they would still give out the member numbers on the phone . . . so frustrating!

I'm thinking you got estoppel on 6/12, not 5/12?

Yup - typo. Thanks for the correction.

You would have a lot of jealous people if you got it that quickly, but it wouldn't have helped much apparently! Haha. Sure hope you get your member number soon!

So yesterday is 110 days and nothing in the mail from Disney but I received a thank you from my broker. If only she could help with Disney.

Mine was recorded about a week after yours, so hopefully this weekend or early next week!!! It sounds like they are speeding up slightly on the processing, which is a good sign! Congrats

Can I just vent for a moment?

We have two contracts in closing status right now:

1.) BLT sellers have been sitting on the closing documents for TWO WEEKS and haven't even made an appointment with the notary yet because before they "hadn't gotten around to it" and now they are "travelling". We sent ours in the day after we got them. We are both international, actually they are in the city neighbouring ours, so I know it can't be that difficult to sort out their documents.

2.) OKW seller is super sweet but Disney is apparently not accepting the power of attorney paperwork he had for his severely ill wife, so he has to go back to the courts and file yet another power of attorney and get a new document to send to Disney's underwriters. If it goes on long enough, it will likely have to go back to the beginning of the estoppel process as apparently they expire.

Need I also mention that both come with 2013 points- a LOT of them- that are going to expire August 31? We were planning to have them loaded by next week if everything had stayed in track so we could use them, about 300 points in total, now they will be down the drain. Ugh.

Thanks for letting me vent.

Oh no!!! I'd be really upset watching all those point go down the drain. Is it too late to back out of the deal on #1? Their disregard for the points you are paying for in the contract really upsets me!

 

[supersnoop]

Deed recorded on 7/8 and letter received today 7/27. I was able to call, bank points, and set up online access for this new membership.

You and me both !

I imagine if they go past the closing date of "July 27 (which they have) or 45 days from estoppel being issued" (which they haven't yet), I could back out. But it's just so inconsiderate. My broker has reminded them that points are expiring and they just don't care. So it comes down to a selfish attitude that isn't really cause for backing out in the eyes of the law at this point and we would lose the deposit. I did ask.
