and I thought the wait for ROFR was bad...now I'm anxiously waiting for closing docs. I was really hoping for a fast closing, but have been waiting almost a week for closing docs. I was hoping to book a weekend in February at any DVC, but it's looking less likely.

Anyone know the usual wait time for seller to return closing docs? We received closing docs 3 weeks ago and nothing. Was hoping to have our member number before our second contract went to closing (we passed rofr a week ago on 11/5). I guess there's nothing that can be done, but it's really frustrating.

So we've been waiting about a week and a half for closing docs to sign and return. My husband called last night to find out why it is taking so long and they blamed it on Disney and waiting for info from them....is this even a thing or just an excuse because they've delayed? What info would they be waiting from Disney to send us closing docs?

No, I'm in the exact same boat you are with a completely different broker and title company. We also passed rofr on 11/5 and haven't received closing docs yet. Looks like estoppel is what's holding everything up.

So I guess I’m just waiting on the closing date, the deed to be recorded and my points? Does anything happen on the closing date or is this just the day they use to record everything?

Looking at the rest of these threads, maybe I just got lucky, but I can't say enough great things about my broker and title company. Two contracts went through lightning fast on everything they could control. Beyond impressed!

Now the wait on Disney starts. How long do I need to wait until I can call? Or do I have to wait until I get info in the mail since this is our first purchase?
Also, what are the chances of getting a studio anywhere the weekend of February 15-18? I know it's close, but was hoping for a little magic.

I don't think you have to wait to get the info in the mail. I *think* I read that some people start to call around day 9 or 10. Don't quote me on that though.

Re: availability for that weekend - as of right now there is no full availability. There's hardly anything available for any of those days. You can try waitlisting but I don't know how high those chances are.

Thanks for looking. I thought the probability would be small, but who knows maybe there will be a last minute cancellation!
