Closing Time!!

[ScubaCat]

Thank you'd much, I know I've posted about it a few times, but my real life friends and family don't understand

You're in the home stretch now. And you'll get a membership card for discounts and stuff, too. woohoo!

SuperRob---$150-$15569-110-VGF-APR- 12/16, 100/17, 100/18, sent 1/19, passed 2/19, closing docs received 3/14, CLOSED 4/14!

Our closing date was original 4/19, but we were able to close 5 days early. It probably would have been sooner if we hadn't had delays in getting our docs printed, getting a notary involved, and then realizing we were out of checks (and needed a voided one for the financing).

Since we're existing members, I'm hoping our deed will be recorded quickly and points loaded without us having to worry about delays in getting our member number. Although all I'll be doing is banking those points ...

So now we have a little additional celebration for our trip to Aulani next week!

How long before I should start stalking the comptroller site?

How much do you want to turture yourself? They won't update over the weekend so you might as well wait till Monday.

Hi
I've been reading through and I'm wondering if there is a Master Thread with all the acronyms and phone numbers : ) We just PASSED ROFR today!! My agent Kevin from Disney Vacation Club resales says we will get our closing documents in about 3 weeks. So here is what I think will happen next based on what I've read. Any help would be appreciated : )

ROFR Sent - 3/23
ROFR Passed -4/18
Documents Received - maybe may 9th based on the "three weeks" he mentioned
Documents Sent - maybe 5/10 or 5/11 we will send back with cashier's check (??)
Closed and Deed sent for recording - This will be dependant upon seller getting their documents in.

Recording - how long does this usually take? Is this when I use the OC website to watch for the recording?

Disney vacation club set up- I think I should call 10 days after the recording to start asking daily if my membership is in the system? I am guessing that would be the regular DVC number on the disney page.

We are trying to go between August and October as we have expiring southwest airline tix so I am as anxious as everyone else to ball park the timing of this.

Also, this is in my email re: ownership. I think it should state as of April 4th, if your contract has not already been received by Disney...

I am looking for something more official from Disney that we will have perks as we had planned on the annual pass discount in our purchasing decision.

Thanks so much if you've read this much. i tried to be brief but like all things disney, it's a mystery until you learn all the acronyms, secrets, and idiosyncrasies!

Your timeline seems reasonable. After ROFR, we received our closing docs about 2 weeks later. We closed 10 days later, but then it took almost 2 weeks for the deed to be recorded. Others have had that done in 2 days. You can look online to see when the deed is recorded. About 2 weeks after the deed is recorded seems to be the time that your membership number becomes available.

Given the dates you are looking for, I would guess you will have better luck late August or September. October is Wine and Food at EPCOT. We were late to get a reservation due to the timing of our closing. When we looked most everything in October and early November was full. You might get lucky with cancellations.

Good luck.

I've been waiting a long time for this now, been checking the OCC daily, and yeah, finally today my deed is recorded. I haven't been notified of the closing yet from either broker or closing company. But it's finally done!!!! It's official now, beyond excited.

I checked the OC site twice earlier today and nothing was there yet. At 5pm my broker emailed me to me to say the closing was complete and I immediately checked the OC site and boom - it was there. Recorded this afternoon.

I know that it seems my rep at the TSS seems to have been off for the last 4 Monday's, I think she usually works weekends, most likely the reason for her not emailing me yet. I should have closed over 2 1/2 weeks ago, but the sellers took forever to return their paperwork. I was informed last week that the sellers had returned their paperwork via DHL last Monday and that once they had everything in hand we would move on to closing... I've been checking the OCC daily since last Wednesday. Now just to wait on my member number!

That's great news. Hopefully you should have your member number in about 2 weeks or so.

 

[gluestickgirl]

Haven't gotten official word that we closed - but since our deed has been recorded I'm guessing we did.

I have the same notifications services set up, I love the feature.

How do I get signed up for this?! It will save me time stalking my mailbox. I created a my usps account, speed it automatically tell me when someone is sending me something?

found out that our very long wait for closing was not disney or estoppel ... but our sellers not getting info in. a little frustrating, and i'm glad it's behind us!

Mine was just like yours, passed ROFR on 3/2, and didn't close until 4/18, also because the sellers took so long to return their paperwork, they took almost 26 days from receiving closing docs.

Got signed up for My USPS. So far no shipments from Florida . Are we for sure they send in packaging that triggers the alert? Now I'm stalking my mailbox AND the usps website.
