Thanks for that update and timeline. I guess sellers sometimes take longer to return docs? At least from what I'm seeing. But congratulations!

This is definitely my experience. Although they do have to get the docs notarized, so that can take some time to find a notary.

yes, i guess it took a week. title company called me to tell me they now verify points with disney and that can take up to a week (i thought that's what estoppel was?), then i officially close, deed is recorded, and disney is notified to transfer it to me. so i'm looking at disney being notified by next tuesday, then 12-14 days from that, i'm told, disney will notify me of my member number.

so, 3 long weeks to go!

But I as the buyer also had to have some papers notorized as well, so I don't see how that should cause a longer delay, any bank usually has a notary on. Also the shipping places, like UPS and Fed Ex, sometimes the post offices.

Looks like they are taking a bunch of BLT contracts...

Yes, this is the current experience I have with my closing company. Prior companies did it a bit different, closing docs were sent at the same time estoppel was done, which to me seems faster (and actually is since I got my points loaded in 2 months from when sent for ROFR).

What papers did you have to have notarized? The only thing that should need to be notarized is the deed. Unless there is some requirement for international buyers (if you are one)? None of my 4 contracts that I purchased resale were notarized. The one thing is the certified bank check. Also, recent brokers have not required UPS/FedEx shipping, so all went out regular mail, which of course, can take longer, but perhaps almost the same length of time if you have to get to a UPS/FedEx facility.

The closing papers that we signed as the buyer did not need to be notarized. The closing papers that the seller sign did need to be notarized. At least with our broker and title company, they did. Our seller was not international. We also did not need a certified check, just sent a normal check and it cleared a day before the sellers paperwork arrived at the title company.
