Closing Time!

[KVacc]

I believe DVC cannot/will not transfer the ownership of a resale contract until the deed is recorded at OCC.
1. If so, how do they know this has been done?

This is from my title agency “ We have just closed your Disney Vacation Club purchase. The new deed has been sent to the county for recording and upon recording the new owner information will be forwarded to Disney Vacation Club for the transfer.”

I believe DVC cannot/will not transfer the ownership of a resale contract until the deed is recorded at OCC.
1. If so, how do they know this has been done?
2. At DVC, is it a two step process; one, to add the new property to my existing membership and two, add the points to the membership?

Once the title company submits it for recording and it is done, they send the documents to MA to have the membership set up. One department does that. Once the account is created, then they send the information to MS, who has CM's who load the points into the new owners account.

It can take time for each step. Once the account is created and you get the Club ID and Activation Code to set up the website log in, you can then call MS (give it at least a few days) to get the points loaded, if they don't load on their own.

Sometimes, a CM will tell you they can't help, so just hang up and call back.

I did a live chat on 3/3 asking to load my points and was told I had a membership number but points were still processing and to wait a minimum of 10 days for points to load. Based on info here, I did a chat on 3/4 and was able to get my points in my account without a problem. Have already pieced together our first trip for mid April, and another in August!

How long after you get the activation code will you get the Club ID? I got the activation code yesterday but no club ID so I'm still stuck

Ugh I got the activation code Friday. Never got the Club ID and it is now Monday. Tried chat and they told me they cannot help and to contact the agency I went through to purchase.

In my first DVC purchase, resale, the deed was filed and I got a copy yesterday. The transfer agent said it will take 4-6 weeks for DVC to process. What should I expect as far as next steps for a new owner? I saw here that sometimes people need to contact member services to get the points transferred, but just wondering even before that, will DVC be contacting me when I can login? I'm not even sure if they have my email address, do they send snail-mail with the instructions?

Two attempts to contact member services via chat to have the points added. The first time they said they couldn't help me. Today I was able to have them add the points to the membership. I don't understand the inconsistency with this. It may just be a training issue but it would be great if DVC could offer a consistent experience for members.

My 6th resale contract was posted to OCC on 2/23. Contract still not even showing on membership in order to move to the next step of adding my points. The process gets longer and longer. The new VGF sales have not helped me out any I am sure.

The "Administration/Accounting" area told me yesterday they do show having the contract to transfer to me. It is "going through the process. Hopefully it will be finalized this week."

That got me off the phone. LOL

what was your closing date?

 

[SteveS1]

what was your closing date?

Last week, March 4

 

[LadybugsMum]

It's been taking 8-15ish days for member administration to create new memberships. You should get 2 emails from MA with your account information once they have created your membership.

It's Aulani so it's not listed on the Orange County Comptroller site and I haven't been able to find a searchable database for Hawaii.
