Closing Time!!

[Cupcake232]

He was told they don’t see anything wrong on their end and they think maybe it was Disneys mistake and will get back to us...

I reached out again today. I’ll keep you posted!

Spoke to Mason and they said I'm anticipated to close early next week because of the backlog from Disney halting closings for a week or so. I can't wait!

A little update—we closed! I can only assume that the deed will be recorded on Monday. You better believe I’ll be stalking that Orange County comptroller site. One. Step. Closer.

Updated: Points in my account!! This is finally closed out, after 94 stressful days.

Note: Didn't receive word from title co or broker that this closed, but saw the deed recorded (for Hilton Head, look here: http://rodweb.bcgov.net/searchng/ ). I messaged them on 11/26, and I finally heard back from the Title Co on 12/2 that it had closed and they had sent over the title to Disney. I'm not sure if that means it closed on 12/2 or earlier. The broker never communicated back again, either, and I confess giving all the issues I've had on this contract, I'm glad it's almost done and behind me. Today, the contract appeared in my account, so now I'm just waiting for points to load!

I was going to say save a lot of money, but you have dues to pay and trips to plan.

How many points do you have now?

I was going to say save a lot of money, but you have dues to pay and trips to plan.

I definitely need to save money since I’ve spent it all on DVC this year. AND I just got my 2021 dues bill and...ouch!

I’m at 1651 now! Which is just crazy in some ways, but we do have big trips planned over the next ~5 years.

We are new owners who just closed as well. Our broker said we would get two emails; one with an activation code and one with our membership number in 2-5 weeks. I’m guessing once we have those, we can sign up for an account on the dvc website.
