Updating...called Member Admin today to check on membership number and they told me that they received our paperwork on 2/27 and have everything they need, but to call back on 3/16 due to the timeline that they say it takes. I later got a call from our listing agent because DVC contacted him about our zip code being wrong (he mentioned they were creating our membership account). Turns out our state was wrong.. the agent had put MI for Mississippi when it should be MS. Hope to have points before the end of the week.

I've been waiting a month for my closing documents.

Who did you purchase through?

Sorry for the delay, just saw this. I purchased through Buy and Sell DVC. Bee Thaxton was my broker. She is wonderful!

Points in my account: ????

This is my second resale purchase in a little over a year. We bought VGC direct in 2008/9 and then a VGC add-on last January that spoiled me with how fast the process was. We decided to do the add-on at BLT mostly for RunDisney events which I discovered last year I'm hoping the points get in their quickly as 88 expire at the end of May. The long wait for the closing docs was painful, and of course we were out of the country when they came, which is why it took us almost a week to get them back. The seller took even longer due to the notary requirement (they both worked). Overall very smooth process so far, but of course took longer than I hoped. I'm sure most people say that

Passed ROFR: 2/13
Closing docs received: 2/13
Closing docs returned: 2/16 (However due to money transfer issues with my brokerage, didn't wire funds until 2/23. First Reliable Transfers said they had everything they needed (my/seller closing docs and wired funds on 2/23.))
Closing: 2/26 (I'm not sure I quite believe this since the deed was mysteriously recorded two days after I emailed asking why I hadn't heard anything since 2/23 (and never getting an answer until I made a followup phone call the morning it "coincidentally" recorded.))
Deed Recorded: 3/7
Points in my account:

I agree with the general consensus I've read on this board. Purchasing a DVC contract via resale can be frustrating at times, but I do think the money saved makes the frustration well worth it (hopefully anyway).

Points loaded! YAY

curious people who have passed how long did it take and what company did you go with?

This time I used DVC Resale Market and it took just under two months from start to finish. My first contract I used ********** and it took 4 months because the sellers had an existing reservation. They were both good and I had no complaints with either.

 

[motherof5]

Thank you. Just wondering if one resale market is better than another. I know most advertise that they previously worked with Disney, but no one seems to know the logistics behind ROFR. Some places say it takes full 30 days and others say usually 2 weeks.

Hopefully someone can steer me in the right direction. These boards are extremely helpful and there's a ton of information but sometimes that's a problem. I see that my deed was recorded yesterday (3/9) with Orange County. Now what? Do I call and if so, when? Do I just hang out and wait for a mailed package? I know that this has been asked and answered a lot but I appreciate any help that can be given.

How soon do you need to book? Plan on 1-2 weeks after recording date before you can call and longer if you are going to wait for the mail.

Thought Aulani's notarization requirement would slow us down but we returned our documents quickly.
