Emailed Cammy at First American on Friday (6/1), she said my contract was still going through estoppel. Sure seems like a long time to check a couple things. I'm starting to think all this extra time in estoppel is just a good excuse for the title company to use.

Probably bumped up the account creation because I purchase 75 points direct and they needed my resale to come in so the direct points could be purchased. (AKV Dec waitlist was 4 days)

It seems the time between passing ROFR and receiving closing docs (is this the estoppel phase?) varies from a few days to a few weeks. Is Disney the bottleneck or the title company?

I've been waiting for closing docs for 20 days now. Am I allowed to whine yet? I've checked in with *** on multiple occasions and they just keep telling me that they're waiting for estoppel from Disney. We've been working on buying resale since March (lost one to ROFR, another deal fell apart due to seller not having the points they thought they had). I'm so ready to be done with this process. Anyone else on the same timing right now?

Two key DVD employees in charge of resales went on vacation until this first week of June. Everything has slowed quite a bit because of it. We passed a couple of weeks ago, and nothing yet. My broker told me when we passed that it may take up to 4 weeks with the pace they’ve been moving at lately. Yikes!

WAHHHH. Looks like my expiring points may make it into my account the last week of July if everything goes quickly. And they expire 7/31.

Speaking from a seller's POV, I had ROFR waived on 5/3 and received closing documents on 5/25. Both myself and the buyer had everything back to the title company on 5/30. Now waiting for Disney to provide the final points summary, which has been requested twice now from Disney, before it can go to closing. As mentioned above, two key personnel that provide this information have been out and one doesn't return until tomorrow.

I look at the fact that you went to ROFR 3 days before I did, but I am just now receiving closing docs and you are already recorded.

Crazy isn't it?

Our first contract. So excited!

Closing documents were received only a week after the long rofr period. Feels like we're finally making some progress.

We're still going to miss the 7 month booking window for our January trip though

WAHHHH. Looks like my expiring points may make it into my account the last week of July if everything goes quickly. And they expire 7/31.

Time for a last minute bungalow stay!

If I wasn’t having my master bath remodeled at end of July I would so volunteer to go with @kboo to sit on that lovely Lanai at the bungalow and have adult beverages!

It is totally crazy, disneyeveryyear and there is not rhyme or reason for it Because I was in Disney and with the Memorial Day holiday, it actually took me two weeks to return my closing documents I wonder how much sooner it would have happened What title company are you using? Pixie dust your close quickly

Unfortunately the bungalows are 160 points a night at the end of July! But a CCV cabin is 121 for a weeknight....

 

[Mumof4mice]

I guess a CCV cabin will have to do

This is awesome. We passed ROFR the same day as you but we are still “patiently” awaiting closing docs.
