I just made our first reservation using our new DVC Membership. Our timeline was:

Thurs 1/3: Made offer, received counter, made counter which was accepted.

Fri 1/4: Signed contract and mailed in Escrow Deposit

Tues 1/29: Disney waived ROFR

Thur 1/31: Received closing documentation

Sat 2/2: Mailed documents and check back.

Tues 2/5: Escrow Closed.

Fri 2/15 (today): Called DVC for the first time and they gave me my Member Number and ID (I wonder if it was available earlier?). I then logged on and made my first reservation.

Total time from making our first offer to making our first reservation was 43 days. We worked with Jerry at the Timeshare Store and Magic Vacation Title.
We had no problems or hiccups along the way, was easy and painless.

congratulations

kenspidey · 02-15-2013, 06:39 PM

Wow. That's great. Congrats. I hope mine goes through that fast

Minnies Dad · 02-16-2013, 08:59 AM

Thanks everyone. Good luck kenspidey.

That is a crazy fast timeline, congrats. I only hope that others reading this don't think of this as the norm, or there will be problems.

Yes, from my research here, I was surprised at how quick everything clicked along. Timeshare Store and Magic Vacation Title were right on top of things, and kept things moving. The seller also returned his documents as quick as I did mine. So I guess if everyone is motivated in the same direction, you can get through at this speed.

I made an offer yesterday (2/15) morning, e-mailed signed paperwork last night, and today (2/16) we have already been notified that the contract was submitted for ROFR. I am hoping the rest of the process goes as quickly! (Also using Timeshare Store.)

Minnies Dad · 02-17-2013, 07:16 AM

Congrats.

Wow, that was quick. Mine so far-

1/11 - Submitted full price offer on 150 point BWV
1/23- FINALLY received correct contract and email back (w/ CC deposit)
2/19 - Disney waived ROFR

So it has taken me about the same time to get through ROFR as it took you to complete and book a reservation. Ha!

Minnies Dad · 02-19-2013, 06:12 PM

Good luck Goofy, I hope it goes quicker from here on for you.

jenbelles · 02-19-2013, 06:20 PM

We were submitted to Disney on 2/14! Hopefully we both get good news!!!

this is why we hesitate at resale: you've spent the $$ but still have no product. Sure your product is there just not available to you.
