Update.

Had a slight issue. DVC contacted my broker needing the contact information for my wife and adult daughter to process the memberships. Once I relayed the information the memberships were processed a couple hours later. Almost there. Will post final update once points get loaded.

Must say that I was a tad annoyed at the 3 week wait for the contract to be added, but was happy to see the points added in just 4 days!

Cheers!

Two different users reported deed recordings on Sep 6th and contracts showing up on Friday, Sep 23rd. I have the same deed recordings date (existing membership, same use year) and I was hoping for Friday too (then Saturday, then today). I also noticed no new mentions of any contracts showing up yesterday. It looks like they don't do this kind of work during weekends.

That’s pretty smooth timing! I noticed we have the same broker for my latest contract and you got your closing docs like 4 days after contract was waived? Did they send you an email saying it might take 3-4 weeks to get closing docs anyway? I’m also wondering if different escrow officers at Mason work at different speeds too then.

 

[geargrinder]

The broker always quoted the longest times even though they pretty much followed the normal that we see here.

I guess that manages expectations and prepares people for the worst case.

Wow it took that long for the seller to return closing docs?

Yes. She had a lot going on. I'm not sure what all was going on there, but the comptroller site shows she sold three contracts that same week including the one I bought.

I did the same thing, held out the temptation to call or chat to get the points loaded and it was just 4 days which was a nice surprise given how long it took for the contract to be added. My last resale took about 10 days for the contract to be added when this last deal took 3 weeks.

42 days so far. Disney is quoting five weeks for membership info, and another two weeks for points to be loaded. Ridiculous to think it could be another seven weeks!

 

[hereforthechurros]

Looks like the average time from deed to membership in the past 30 days has been 18 days. There was one outlier (43 days) that I didn't include.

 

[discreet]

21 days and still counting for me. I've seen others with the same deed recordings date as me reporting to have their accounts ready last week.

Lot of 17, 21 and 23 days in the mix.

Comptroller website reporting their office will be closed Wednesday through Friday this week.

Is the number you call to have the points added to your account just the regular DVC number? I called (I have my membership #) however they kind of gave the impression I had to wait.

I'm thinking it may have been because of the hurricane so I didn't really want to push it, I'm assuming they're really busy with that.
