As an aside I've found about day 15 your spouse does not want to hear about how long it is taking any more but does provide you with a free seminar about not "bothering" people incessantly...

At day 2, your spouse learns the mistake of telling you about the contract and not simply forging your signature and then telling you about it after ROFR is waived.
 
Can I share frustration?
We offered - March 6
They agreed - March 8
We signed contract - March 12
THEY STILL HAVEN'T!

It's like 3 clicks online - come on, man.

I'm not made for this long drawn out process. Have to remind myself of the $10,000+ we are saving over direct. Maybe that will lengthen my patience.

:( We just had a similar experience where it took our sellers a week to return their signed contract. We just made it through ROFR and are hoping they move faster throughout the remainder of the closing process. Good luck!

Sure thing! Misery loves company. Doubt we will get much sympathy from the poor souls that had 30+ days of waiting though!
If I devoted all the time spent checking the boards and my email working a second job I could probably buy direct and break even...
 
Right?! How awesome would that be to log in and just see more points one day?

DW doesn't log in, in my case, so that's not the issue. I wouldn't forge the actual closing docs either (because that would be wrong, right??) It's just the ROFR waiting period that she practically melted down over.

So yes, forging a signature is illegal, but I could be nagged and annoyed into doing something else illegal, so this is a bona fide "lesser of 2 evils" situation. :laughing::confused3

Well, forgery is only *technically* a crime if the intent is to defraud AND it's NOT a crime if you have the individual's permission to sign on their behalf. So you *could* just get DW's verbal permission to buy more points and then perfectly legally sign all the docs on her behalf! :rolleyes1

It could be seller has a spouse who is frequently out of town hence the delay. (And doesn’t the seller need something notarized? Haven’t sold yet so not sure...). DH is an airline pilot which means he is gone for 3-4 days at a time and If we were a seller it could well be over a week for us to return documents. Bottom line is the seller may not be ignoring the documents and have a legitimate reason for the delay.

This isn't that part... Though I can appreciate when it's notarizing and getting into mail etc that can take longer. This was three clicks online. Lol. But they did it so I'll stop whining...
 
We own at AKV and were looking for a small BWV contract for our grown-ups only trips. I suppose I could have counter offered on the price per point, but we just went with asking (really, saving $100 or $200 was less important than getting the contract we wanted; also, I caught my husband in a moment of weakness and didn't want to discuss it for fear of losing him. He wanted to buy a building for some pipe dream of owning a vintage motorcycle showroom where people come and talk about bikes. I convinced him it wasn't a sound retirement plan and then countered with, what if we spend a fraction of that so we can always stay at BW during FWF?)

Congratulations! We have a BWV contract currently in ROFR. The waiting to hear back is the worst part! I’m so glad you didn’t have to wait the full 30 days, or more!

I like the way you think! Your passing time still gives me hope! I'm on day 17.
