Third time's a charm, right?

 

[mousehouse23]

So the seller did not read the contract and see name misspelled when they signed the contract?

I guess not. They didn't give us details. Would seem surprising that someone wouldn't point out the error in their own name, though!

It sounds like the seller had a waitlist that she "forgot about" and then the waitlist came through while we were in the process of closing. (Somehow this waitlist coming through apparently didn't trigger an email? I think she's full of crap.)

I made an initial offer on a cash settlement, I'm waiting for her response now.

IF it was true then when the contract transferred then the reservation would be cancelled and you would have had the points anyway.

if the Estoppel was correct with all points when issued then the seller used the points afterwards.

Not sure if it is but it was international seller. They accepted, yay! Waiting for it to go to ROFR then I'll post the data string.

I think it was a 175 point DEC use year CCV that was an International Seller. Price was okay but I was tempted to ask for a deal. Please say you saved me

 

[Disneykate605]

That’s very strange. I have seen a delay if a closing happens in the afternoon and it doesn’t post until the next day, but usually they’re done within 24 hours.

I suggest trying to search misspelled versions of your name. It’s possible that they made a typo when entering into the online database.

Also, you can look for the one of the seller's names as the Grantor.

Thank you both so much for your suggestions! Our last name was spelled incorrectly. I've brought it to the attention of the title company and they are going to correct it. When I looked it up with the seller as the granter I realized the mistake. When I looked back at our closing docs our names were misspelled there as well and we missed it!

I was as well! I know that I shouldn’t but man was I tempted.

After our AKV being taken I was ready to sit back but my husband insisted we get another bid in quickly. Let's hope international = passes!

Awesome price and a good chance it passes. CCV is an awesome resort. If our family ever stops wanting to go on big trips to WDW ever other year our exit/retirement plan is to just “burn” our points on a cabin for 7 to 10 days each summer and enjoy life

I’ve read on these boards recently (the Fidelity issues thread in particular) and perhaps this thread even that estoppel doesn’t verify points, only owner and financials/account standing.

When estoppel is issued, it does not send info regarding points…it only addresses financial issues such as dues and loans.

So, that would not have played into the mistake.

Hmm, this didn't in any way cause a delay in loading your points, did it? The broker didn't call MA and ask them to delay, did they? Seems suspicious, in light of the two cases last month where loading points was delayed or the buyer was asked to accept a late closure after they had closed.

Only 20 days wow!

I use to think this way but I can't get over the cabin points chart. I know they're nice but I don't think it's worth the points, especially when the 2BRs cost less than half the points. Having said that, I can't wait to stay in it one day.

We closed on a contract with the board sponsor using Magic Vacation Title on 7/26. I've been waiting (im)patiently for it to show up in our membership. They gave me the standard 30 business day quote, but we've never waited over 10 days for at least the contract to show up before. Just on a whim, I decided to check the comptroller's website today and to my surprise I found a second deed listed just today - a corrected copy. Apparently they had listed the resort name incorrectly on the first one. I understand that mistakes happen, but I would assume a company that does the volume that DVC Resale Market does would have the correct resort name nomenclature figured out by now.

Grrrrrr .......... I guess my clock just got reset again.

Replying to myself:

If I'm going to complain about a company I have to give them credit when they do the right thing as well. I contacted the concierge at DVC Resale Market and they got me in touch with the title agent. She was very apologetic and said that she was working with Disney to expedite the transfer now that the deed had been corrected. Well, just a couple of minutes ago she emailed me (at 8:21 PM) that the transfer was complete. And the contract does now show up in our membership. The points aren't there yet, but I know that takes a few more days.

They did screw up, but acknowledged it and made it right.

 

[OlieRow]

Thank you. I pray.. This is our first contract and we've been looking to buy in for years so super impatient! Thank you

Same! On one hand I know I’ve waited years, what’s another month but to have finally made the jump, it’s hard to wait.

Feeling add-on-itis-y, but also kind of itchy for some Direct points.

What to do, what to do...

Wait for a fire sale at one of the Big 3?

Wait for an even bigger fire sale at Aulani?

Wait for Poly 2?

Give in to impulsivity and just buy another resale contract?

My plan was to buy Boardwalk because I love the resort and points chart, especially if I can get standard view rooms. Then add on direct at Poly tower because it’s my favorite MK resort. I wanted to have DVC before it goes on sale to get best pricing off the bat. Then I’ll have a MK and E resort and by 2042, all the kids in my life are grown and I’m less likely to be running almost all the races and won’t need as many points. If I decide I need more in 2042, hopefully I’ll be in a position to not think twice about BWV 2.0.

Very excited and much quicker than expected!

Congrats! Similar-ish to what I’ve got pending!

 

[Red Dog Run]

Sorry to hear that. I have a $110 in myself with 160 points so I'm kind of expecting the same fate in a few weeks.

Some pass. If you have the time and are willing to use the deposit in a back and forth situation, I don't mind sending and getting taken as many times as Disney wants. I don't need more points. If I see something that would better my DVC use, I'll bid. Eventually, I'll buy for what a seller is willing to accept.
