Come on Estoppel!!!!

[leshunlenese]

Did they say for a timeframe? Was that just in your date/time frame??

they just mentioned they received them after 4 weeks!

So..... I am about to jump out of my skin and have my skeletal remains create an Emoji if that helps. Passed ROFR 3/24(second contract. still waiting on member number on first). Still no Estoppel.

Here are the sentiments of our friend who already own DVC.....

UG, it is painful, isn't it??? Hoping you get it next week! It took exactly 4 weeks for ours . . . we just got our member # on the phone 4/13 and in the mail 4/20, so that feeling of frustration is very recent for me! So sorry!

Thanks for all the info!

Our timeline for our 1st Contract (100 SSR)
3/30 Signed contract
4/24 Passed ROFR
Told 2-3 weeks for closing docs (Vacation World Title)

Hoping to book anywhere end of July with banked points!

We just passed ROFR on April 20. We want to book reservations for any resort for the middle of June. What do you think our chances are that we will actually close on our projected date of May 20 and be able to make reservations for June 16 or 17 until July 1 and/or through the 5th? We do not mind resort hopping (in fact we prefer it) as long as we can stay somewhere for 4-5 days at a time... Also, once we close, is it possible to call Disney and ask them for our vacation club number so that we can make reservations in case Disney doesn't send out our new member packet in time?

Following to see what advice you are given! Hoping that it works out for you. I did read on another post that once the sale has been recorded with the Orange County Commissioner some have had luck calling IT at Member Services and they will give you your membership id and one-time access code so you can log on and book. Seems hit or miss though! And, seems like estoppel has been taking a while. Not sure if that will continue. Hoping to close end of May and book by middle of June. Good luck to you!

Someone on another board just posted that they just got their closing paperwork yesterday. It was 5 weeks, less one day, after passing ROFR. I'm still waiting too - passed exactly one month ago today (3/25), or 4 weeks 3 days ago. So I guess I have another 3 days to go!!

 

[Lakegirl]

I received an email from our broker that we should expect to get closing docs in 7-10 days and to be ready. I passed ROFR 4/6.....really getting anxious

 

[hopeful4fl]

So you passes 3/24 and still have not heard back on Estoppel??????OMG

Yup. > 1 month now. Spread some pixie dust please......

 

[allison plevrakis]

From what I've been seeing and hearing, the time frame of 3 weeks for the estoppel is no longer valid. We'll be at three weeks on Monday the 27th and we're not getting any guarantees from our title agent that we'll get the closing docs next week. We're just being told that Disney is way behind and it could be closer to a month. What really bugs me about this is that our real estate agent emailed us in the beginning of April when we passed the ROFR and said we'll be getting closing docs emailed to us soon. I asked her to define soon because I was already tired of waiting since the ROFR took a full month. Thanks goodness I asked because I was then told it would be at least 3 weeks. Soon does not = 3 weeks in my world! We closed on our house faster then this process is taking us!

Pixie dust for you to get your welcome home!

Oh my God!!! I am sending buckets of Pixie Dust your way!!!! Keep us posted!!!

 

[Hogzilla]

Oh my God!!! I am sending buckets of Pixie Dust your way!!!! Keep us posted!!!

Passed ROFR on 3/24 here too ..... still no word on estoppel or closing. Frustrating.

 

[hopeful4fl]

I know. I think a little bit of communication from Disney (cause the brokers and title companies do not get much clarity on delays either) would help. After all, once we close, we will be part of the pool that pays for the administration of DVC. Why sour the experience at all?

 

[allison plevrakis]

Disney required us to add an addendum to our contract during the ROFR time period, which added additional time for the contract to get through the ROFR. Disney wanted it spelled out who would be paying maintenance fees in March, April and May of 2015. The seller agreed to pay the fees. I remember thinking why on earth would the sellers pay maintenance fees in May, we'll have taken ownership by then, little did I know that this process would take so long.

I just saw on Facebook that rumors are circulating that Disney will be releasing their free fall dining plan this week. We want to go in Sept and the free dining will going on during the time period we are there. Will this hurt our chances of getting the DVC resort we want in Sept? I'm new to this, so I'm not sure. My understanding is that DVC resorts are not eligible for free dining. Can anyone confirm? Thanks!

You are correct, DVC is not eligible for free dining. Unless you pay cash and don't use points.

We also passed on 3/24. On Thursday I was told that Disney has sent the paperwork for those passed 3/20. They thought we'd get our paperwork this coming week.

 

[Starshine]

Let me join in on the going crazy train. We passed ROFR 4/1. I'm not in a hurry to use the points (we're already members), but we leave for WDW May 9th and I do NOT want to try to be dealing with paperwork or bank wires while we're on vacation. I figure I'll wait until next week and then email the title company and let them know we'll be unavailable for 10 days after the 9th, sigh.
