Rumor...

[Disneytrippin']

Just want to inform people that I started with Cammy and Mason title on my latest contract. Cammy has since left. I usually use Mason. This is the first time I have had a bad experience. Little contact or response to my emails. I have been waiting over three weeks for the sellers to sign the final closing documents and keep getting emails saying they are suppose to sign today, or they are needing to get everyone together this weekend to sign. Now, I am getting radio silence. I will not be using them again.

I am sorry to hear this, but it sounds a lot like a seller problem and not a Mason problem? I agree they should answer your emails, but if they have done their part - ie forward all closing docs to you and seller - and the seller is being slow or difficult, isn’t it out of Mason’s hands?

Have you been emailing their timeshare email address? If so you could tell them you are keeping an eye on the closing date and you’ll walk away at that point if the contract doesn’t close by then. Mason might try to push the sellers more.

The contract was suppose to close on or before July 5th. I was told the sellers were suppose to sign over the weekend holiday but when I emailed mason about it they did not reply. I am very disappointed because I have a trip planned for May and I am watching the calendar fill up.

The "funny" thing is, before she was with Mason, Cammy was at First American, an outfit that has been historically bad at turning around docs.

So, have you notified your broker and Mason that you are walking away from this contract because of failure to close per contracted date? Or that if you don't close by (specify new date here, I'd put July 12 or 14 at latest) you're walking away?

I don't know if resales contracts allow a buyer to walk away (without forfeiting the deposit) simply because a transaction didn't close by an expected closing date. Does it?

I believe that a standard sales contract should contain language specifying a "no later than" closing date, after which the buyer can cancel the contract for nonperformance and get their deposit back. The contract usually contains additional penalties for the seller, such as having to pay the broker's commission, if the failure to close was the seller's fault (as it would be in this case). The buyer has to wait for that date, though, even if the sale has passed ROFR, etc. and seems otherwise ready to close.

Yes, it does. You can cancel the sale if it doesn’t close by the expected date.

The key isn’t that the transaction simply didn’t close for no discernible reason. It is that in this case the sellers have obligations to fulfill by closing date; if they have not and the contract can’t close, the buyer can get their deposit back and start again.

I would be calling on Monday. Ask to speak to Joseph Sutter, he’s the president/owner of Mason.

 

[AwfulWaffle]

Don't want to start a panic but I have heard a rumor that Cammy Smith will be leaving Mason Title. Can anyone verify???

Well not before she closed on our ALV contract.

 

[DonMacGregor]

Well not before she closed on our ALV contract.

She left Mason about 2 months ago.

 

[AwfulWaffle]

She left Mason about 2 months ago.

Oh I didn’t notice the Emil address dvcclosings.com
My CCV contract must be the one with Mason Title. Sorry.

I finally got an email saying the sellers still have not turned in thier signed documents. I was told he would reach out to them yesterday. When I didn't get a response I emailed him again and got a general out of the office until Wednesday response.

They sellers said they were getting g together over the holiday to sign. It's now a week passed the closing date and I am pretty upset. I know it's not the title companies fault the sellers aren't signing but,the lack of communication is.

I would cancel it at this point.

I agree. It’s painful, but I’d start over and hopefully Mason charges them their broker fee.

I'm dealing with almost an identical delay with my contract that is supposed to close with Mason. Unfortunately I didn't know Cammy had left when I requested Mason as my closing company. They keep telling me that the sellers are going to complete their closing docs but then the seller has another delay. The contract should have closed by July 3. Supposedly the sellers will got notary tomorrow July 12. I will cancel if they do not.

I'm giving it til the end of the week. This was my first bad experience with Mason. But Cammy left so....

Just to help make you feel better...I had Cammy for a contract I was buying and the seller was slow and she did or could not do anything to speed it up. I finally said I would be walking and losing my deposit if it didn't close soon...it was before the deadline which is why I would lose the deposit. Seller got documents in once she relayed to them I would be walking away.

So, having Cammy would not have mattered for you because its all on the sellers.
