ROFR Thread January to March 2021 *PLEASE SEE FIRST POST FOR INSTRUCTIONS & FORMATTING TOOL*

Yeah but for me at least it was so easy- I just went to my bank and had them notorize everything. I believe most all banks have a notary. I didn't even need an appointment- I just went when they opened and I was first seen. Very easy. So I guess I just don't get this. Maybe its just me though being anxious and wanting this process to finally conclude - I mean its been since 1/31 now when I submitted my offer!

Banks around me require appointments right now. In January, took me over 2 weeks to get something done.

Sometimes it also takes some coordination to schedule too with all the owners. It’s frustrating but I am sure that most sellers don’t delay without a reason. Hope it’s soon!!!

Okay I did not realize that they are now requiring appointments- I did ask this now that you mention it if an appointment was needed and was told no just to stop in. Perhaps it is different in other places. Thanks so much. I will just wait with anticipation.... I just want to book my first trip!

I also have used my bank for a notarizing in the past. It's even free! However, I needed something notarized back in the fall, and I could not get into my bank for a notary for several weeks. Some of their local branches were closed completely, and the others were offering notary by appointment only.

I was able to go into the UPS store and get a notary with no appointment, but it cost me $15. In the grand scheme of things, it's a drop in the bucket, but when compared to free, it was a little annoying.

I think it makes sense that you're anxious, especially seeing threads around here where the sellers backed out, or took forever to get closing docs back, but those are really a tiny percentage of all the resales. I think the risk of it falling through is very low, although I understand you want it all finalized so you can play with your points! Hopefully it all goes well for you.

Banks have notaries but mine won't notarize a thing that isn't a document they've produced.

Years ago I was adding on a resale and one day signed into my DVC and there was the contract all loaded! A little later in the day I called the broker to find out if I had passed ROFR yet.

I think it has to do with the sellers getting a notary. Depending on what state they’re in I’m sure covid does not help with that either. I received mine last Wednesday and returned them and am in the same boat. My agent reached out to the sellers and they said they’re trying to get it notarized asap. I just think covid has slowed down the entire process unfortunately. I’m sure it’ll be soon

It took me almost a week to get an appointment for an online notary for my contract. If the person is internationational(like me) it will take time because getting the notary is difficult. I am just glad that First American recommended the notary site.

Updated!

Go ahead and use this thread today- I am in the process of making the new one and this will be locked tomorrow, so please do not feed this thread after midnight or get it wet.

 

[UrsulaWantsYourSoul]

For Notary, we have been using The UPS Store - at least for us there's been no appointment needed - walk right in and boom. I think it was like $10 / person.

I would assume you will get this one. I would think you would get it just for the price and if not with it being an international seller should make it almost a guarantee.
