"Notice" on Orange County Comptroller site

[TCups4Me]

I've been closely watching the Rent/Trade Board because I'm interested in renting points. If I can figure out the person's name, I always check on them on the Orange County Comptroller's site before deciding if I want to contact them. Most of the time, there are just the Deed listings for their DVC ownership.

One poster has points that I was really interested in but I decided against contacting him because there is a "Notice" posted about his DVC ownership to the Comptroller's site that was listed the same day he put his points up for rent. It states that the document is being processed.

What sort of document would this be? Could this indicate a lien?

Thanks for your help.

Could be anything. You can either wait and see or move on to the next owner.

Your system isn't fool proof. A lien can take months to get filed and posted.

The Orange County Comptroller has a fairly quick processing time on making records available for viewing. Most of the time, records being processed early in the day are available for downloading before the end of the day. You should be able to view the record by now, or no later than the next workday.

Usually, when dealing with DVC records, an OCC record labeled "Notice" represents a Notice of Waiver of Right of First Refusal.

On the other hand, someone who just is after your money can find names with existing contracts just as easy on the OC comptroller site and give it to you as his name...

The Notice documentation was completed today and it was a Right of First Refusal because this member is selling their ownership. I assume this member's remaining points were not included in the sale and so they are renting them out.

I completely understand that checking on the Comptroller's site guarantees me absolutely nothing, however it is one of the tools I use to make an informed decision. For example, this situation is too uncertain for my liking.

I know I am taking a risk no matter what information I find.

Our points are not even listed on the Comptroller site, have no idea why.

As stated this is not a fool proof system

Unless you actually know that the contract being sold does not include the one being rented, you should stay far away from the rental.

I find this very interesting and could be provided as proof that you do indeed own the resorts you say.
Some names would be very hard to figure out, but others (like mine) was surprisingly a longer list than anticipated.

Thanks for the info and I agree nothing is a 100% guarantee, but doing your research and checking references is something as a person who rents points is expected. I have to trust you and you have to trust me.

Thanks again for this insight!

Yep, as a renter and someone who rents for his friends, I always check the OCC site. It's not foolproof, but it's a huge grain of rice on the proverbial scale if you will.

True, but they'd have to qualify to post on the Rent/Trade Board each time they scam, which costs money.

Does anyone know if Villas at Disney's Grand Californian DVC owners are listed on the same OCC website, or some website in California's Orange County?

The Orange County Comptroller website contains records for the DVC resorts that are located in Orange County, Florida. Edited to add OCC Link: https://officialrecords.occompt.com/recorder/eagleweb/docSearch.jsp

Records for the Villas at Grand California are available from the County of Orange (CA) Clerk-Recorder's Office website at http://cr.ocgov.com/grantorgrantee2/welcome.asp.

Records for Disney's Hilton Head Island Resort are available from the Beaufort County (SC) Register of Deeds at http://rodweb.bcgov.net/nvtest/or_sch_1.asp.

Records for Vero Beach are available from the Indian River County (FL) Clerk of Court website at http://ori.indian-river.org/Search.aspx.

Records for Aulani are available at the Hawaii Bureau of Conveyances at https://boc.ehawaii.gov/docsearch/nameSearch.html;jsessionid=973ECDD87843EB39C74E5DC6D31FB665.kolea.

The records for VB and HHI can be viewed online, although retrieval of records from those sites is not as simple as with the OCC website. The websites for the VGC and Aulani records let you confirm that a record has been filed, but you must pay a fee to view the contents of a record.

Thanks wdrl. I appreciate it. I plan on renting at VGC for the first time this year. I'll be sure the owner's name is listed there.

Quick question on the VGC search. Is there anyway around the date requirement? Or do I have to do 10 searches (changing the year each time going back until VGC opened)?

OC-CA requires that you insert dates in the search fields, but it lets you search a date range of up to 367 days. The first DVC deeds for VGC were recorded in June 2009, so you don't need to search before then.
