The "Waiting for ROFR" support group thread

[icouldlivethere]

Oops I meant to say if you passed ROFR on March 14th it has been 21 days for you.

Never mind I went back and edited the post.

ok...I am happy and I do feel for you guys still waiting...wish I had the crystal ball.

Now let me share my April Fools story which has me burning. The bank has in their words "destroyed" the docs in our chosen method of financing. We just refinanced a line of credit, paid the initial line with the new line and then would use the new line for our DVC. We did this one month ago. Statements showed the payoff, online accounts show everything is cool.

On the 31st we got a letter saying basically you have no money. On Monday (April Fools Day) my wife and I have to listen to the bank tell us we don't know what happened, docs never made it where they were supposed to go, you need to sign new docs to get this done. Eight hours of phone conversations with people throughout the bank and that was the best they could come up with. So yesterday we signed new docs, they weren't overnighted yet (courier is supposed to pick them up) and I still have no money to pay my DVC which I know need!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does that suck or what? I'm working the bank now...stay tuned!

Umm Bob, I was sitting here waiting for the April Fools punch line and it never came. That's awful! I'm sure everything will work out eventually but who needs that added stress because of someones irresponsibility. There has to be something the bank can do to speed up this process where they are the buffoons in all this. Good luck.

Same here. When he said he had an April Fool's story I was waiting for the point where he would say April Fool's. As I read I kept thinking OMG his bank played an April Fools joke on him??!! That's not even funny. Then I realized that it wasn't a joke that it really happened.

Good luck to you Bob! I sure hope everything works out for you!

From my Nancy at my closing company...I sent her a note to shake up the bean counters...

"Bob,

As a matter of fact, we received the estoppel information yesterday and will be sending the closing docs out today. They will be emailed to you---I'm assuming this is the best email address to send the docs to you."

"I'm a happy boy, I'm a happy boy, oh ain't it good when things are going you way, hey hey!"

Yea, Bob! (I've just called you "Minnie" in my mind, all this time!)

Susan was right. Looks like this could be a day for good news. And speaking of Susan: Yea, Susan! Glad you're getting your trip!

Then, on to HR (Ed). I didn't even know the phrase under our name was called a "tag." I didn't like "Earning my ears" either, so I just edited it to the caption to one of the shirts I bought at Disney. I vote for going back to the Clark line.

Remember, I'm the one who's kid asked Santa for more patience for his dad for Christmas. After Bob's announcement that he cleared the estoppel hurdle after passing ROFR three days after me, well, let's just say my plan of attack that was laid out yesterday was moved up a few days. So I made my wife call Nancy, she got her answering machine, she left a message. I called TTS Jerry is out of the office until this week end so I spoke with Jamie, she seemed very nice and had an ability to deal with irrational people. I explained my situation and wanted to know why I was being told it would be many moons for me when there are people with the same basic time line and have already passed. She started talking about Title Companies and Disney and 30 days to do stuff and basically lull me into confusion, which pretty much worked. Once she had me dazed and confused she then told me I should hear something next week on estoppel and she felt that I would still close before the end of April. I told her about the Email I got from Nancy saying May 16-18 now for a closing and she said that was a worst case scenario and that would all come down to how fast the sellers and I get the paper work back to them, I thought of Laxmom and became nervous. Meanwhile back at the bat-cave Nancy returned my wife's call and told her to call back on Monday that she may have heard something by then. She also said she was putting a "note" in our file. I think I have a pretty good idea what the note might say.

That is so not funny. (It wouldn't have been funny, even if your banker was a good friend, and had been joking. Too stressful.)

I agree!! I liked HR (Ed)'s old tag better. It was more original and showed his personality. I wish I could come up with something original for myself.

 

[minniekissedme]

Question on that...how do people get multiple colors, etc. That might be next for me to figure out after I get my MONEY and figure out the whole multi-quote thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Grandbuddy...I'm comfy with who I am especially in my role as Mr. Mom so you can think of me as minnie if you like!

 

[icouldlivethere]

Thanks for the laugh!!

I really do think you will have your papers within the next 7 days and you will close on your original closing date and all will be fine with the world.

Good Luck!!

I just hope I don't P.O. the tag fairy.

 

[Verandah Man]

No, Tammy, we haven't done that. I think I saw Samantha Brown do that, though. Tell me more. Oh, I forgot about pool hopping!! I wonder if they will charge me the $95 fee on the exchange if I am a member? Probably.

Verandahman, I hope you feel better. I have been battling the fungus amungus since Feb and can't shake the Demi Moore voice and cough. I hate medicine head but sometimes it is better than the bug that big you!!

My DD was sick with this from the middle of last week, she decided dad should have some of the fun............

I just mailed out our signed papers and deposit check this morning. I was waiting at the door when the post office opened, I wanted to be first in line............

Now I got it....daah...its on the screen before you reply!

We don't deal well with change, do we? (Other than the changes brought by passing ROFR, estoppel, and closing. Those, I can handle!)

That's the Tag Fairy's job to add the color to all tags..............

I haven't been here long. Guess I'm not familiar with this whole tag fairy thing.

WOW!! I just looked up the board, and everybody's little circle has gone gray. And American Idol isn't even on! Guess I'll go try to do something productive, myself.

 

[Tigger & Eeyore]

HR - I am one week behind you with ROFR passing so I assume I have at least two to go from what the TTS told you.

Is it the Jaki company that seems to be putting these out quicker?

*Another Update*

Our points are in our account and I made our first reservation!!!! We had to do SSR to get a 2-bdrm for the first part of our trip. We were able to get a studio at OKW for the second part. I had them put us on a waitlist for a Savannah view Studio at AKV. We thought that the kids would really enjoy seeing the animals every morning! Woo hoo!!!
