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.

You can search Hawaii property records at the bureau of conveyances website.

Question about closing document - Does title company send closing document by electronic format, like PDF to sign or do they normally send physical papers? My selling company informed me that it takes 3-5weeks to receive closing documents. is it normal?

I've used 2 different title companies - Magic Vacation Title and TRCS - and both sent pdfs to print off and sign. I did have to mail the physical papers back, but a FedEx label was included. Who is your title company?

I did all my closing papers electronically with Mason. Was able to e-sign them via my Ipad and then sent back electronically to them.

UPDATE: FINALLY CLOSED. Closing docs were delayed 21 days because there were 8 sellers, so they did a Power of Attorney so only one signature was needed, and it took 3 weeks to get the POA set up. You'd think that meant that would mean a fast turn around of closing docs, right? NOPE. But it's finally closed, and now I'm just waiting for the contract to appear and my points to get loaded.

I'm definitely feeling impatient, probably because I made the offer mid-December, passed ROFR mid-January, and we're now nearing mid-March! And I still don't have my points!

8 days since closing, and no contract appearing in my account yet. I have trips to book for my 2022-2023 UY and need my points, lol!

What is member admin email address?

 

[DonMacGregor]

So I still haven't seen points loaded into my account, 10 days after the contract appeared. Got on chat the other day and was told 7-10 days and was too busy to waste time on a phone call. Tried chat again today and this was the response: "This can take anywhere from 4-6 weeks for our Member Administration team to complete the transaction."

Guess I'm calling...

 

[xqueenoffoolsx]

What is member admin email address?

wdw.dvc.member.administration@disney.com - was told they handle club ID and member ID but you can't call. Member services handles activation code and points. It is all separate so that is why you get 2 emails.

How is this even legal? I bought a mostly stripped contract, so I'm in no rush to have points added, but we closed almost a month ago and got our activation code 8 days ago.

My new resale contract was loaded to my account today. Before trying to get points added by Member Services, I have to wait at least 24 hours, correct? Is there something that requires 24 hours to allow members services access to the points?

MA has to send info to MS with the contract info and sometimes it takes a day or two to show up.
