Closing Time!!

Finally got my member number!! Recorded July 26th so I was determined today. Called and chatted with MS but no help. I emailed MA again after never receiving a reply to my email two weeks ago. I got my Activation code 11 minutes after the email. Now waiting for points.

50 days and counting, very pleased so far given the shut down. Excellent experience with Cammy at Mason Title to expedite and close quickly!
 
I was hoping my Vero contract would have been loaded as I’m hitting 11 month booking next week but I don’t think it’s going to happen in time :(

Finally making progress!!!! I reached out to my title company every other week but a language barrier made it nearly impossible to complete the documents. I was about to pull the plug on this contract but they finally finished it.
 
Happy Birthday to me!!

Question for buyers who have dealt with int’l sellers. What is an acceptable time to wait for documents to be signed?
Docs received: 8/09
I signed: 8/09
Funds wired: 8/17
Closing date on contract: 8/17
Emailed escrow company for update from sellers with no response: 8/25

Iwill have 320pts to use this year and I want to make a reservation for late April. 7 month window is coming up in 3 weeks and I’ll still have to wait 3-4 weeks for points. I’m ready to be done and forget this whole DVC.

I would call the escrow company at this point. Some agents suck at email communication. I'd want an answer given your closing date has passed.

Once your contract passes the closing date, you, as the buyer, can walk away and get your deposit back. Sellers have until that date to get the documents in.

Since that date is passed, you have a tough decision to make. Canceling starts the process over. Not having the ability to book a trip for another month or so may make these deal not such a good deal if you end up not getting to book what you want.

When we were faced with this decision...seller had not yet returned after almost a month...we told the title company and broker we were walking, even if it meant losing the deposit. We gave them 2 more weeks to close (which was still within the window) or we would not be sending the funds and walking away.

The next day, the seller's documents arrived, and we closed on time. Good luck!
 
Question for buyers who have dealt with int’l sellers. What is an acceptable time to wait for documents to be signed?
I’ve got several in process with international sellers. Mine are in Japan and it’s been taking 30-60 days. Shutdowns from COVID and the Olympics have made it very challenging to get things notarized. I’d ask the broker to talk to the sellers and find out the cause for delay and a timeframe of when they can get the docs finalized. Better to wait another week or two vs starting the process over again.
