Closing Time!!

[Bonabee]

We closed today. How long before the deed is recorded on the OCC website? The website shows the date of 3/19/15 as the date documents have been proofed through. What does that mean for us? Do we have to wait until they are working on today's date before our deed is recorded?

What is this magic website you speak of?

We are really in a race and I'm a neck ahead.Offer 2/7 but my contract showed up in my account on 5/15. Waiting on points to load.
If your deed showed up on 4/23 then it had already closed. I agree with staying away from First American and I have Mason on contract waiting on ROFR now.

For sure, to be honest the member number to sign in was the biggest thing for me. I'm content with that for now . I'm sure with my next contract I'm going to be counting down the days like this one though.

I see your point, and think of what it feels like when you send a Cashier's check for the entire amount, and still have to wait >90 Days to have access to your points!

I know I sound like a baby at this point but come in already! I waited years to become a member we should have done this years ago! Now I just feel like some the Disney gods are laughing at me with a Vader laugh is all I hear!

How did you get your member number, by e-mail? My deed was recorded on March 11th and I received my one-time activation code from DVC on March 24th.. I am still waiting for my member number… How long is that code good for. I am in Canada, which probably doesn't help. Maybe I should give them a call?

I both my wife and I received two separate emails. One with our member numbers and one with the activation code.

We have First American Title for our closing with broker as Fidelity, how was it. It is my first time using them. We used Magic Vacation Title in the past.

 

[FireworksEverAfter]

Fidelity was fine this was my first contract and I can’t say if one broker is better than another but they kept me informed when they needed to. All I’ll say is my experience wasn’t great with First American and I’ll be using Mason next time.

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

 

[tawi]

Anyone recently deal with TRCS title company? This is who is handling our contract.

 

[pamkat1820]

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

The end is in sight!! Nothing yet on my end

The wait after closing is even harder. Each step will try your patience.

The waiting is brutal. First contract is just about to close. both parties have all the documents and money in.. and now we wait some more.

Title company took 26 days to get you the closing documents from date of passing ROFR? Doesn’t seem like it should take that long.

Yup! I am not happy with them. I emailed at least twice a week to check too. If I have to do this again, I will go with Mason title. My seller is paying closing documents so I couldn’t change.

we had the same issue with that title company!! Our agent with that company kept losing paper work, insisting she sent me documents that I never received, she would confirm receipt of a document then days would go by and nothing.

then I finally lost my mind when she says I’m waiting on you for xxx document, ya you confirmed receipt of that document 5 days ago. Never never never again!!!!

keep emailing them make sure they confirm they received stuff, follow up with them a day later! Be a pain because if not it just sits there for no reason
