Looks like I havea case of addonitis?!?! I got a good deal on this one and couldn't pass it up. Looks like I'll be with some of you through April at the very least!

I'm right there with you, adding on now too! Hope you get good news!

That sounds like a nightmare of issues. Hopefully, this will motivate the seller to get their act together!

I'm still waiting to close and just found out my seller is out of the county! Seller just "found out" the US Embassy opens April 5. I'm guessing appointments will need to be made and there will be what - a years worth of people waiting?

I inquired to the agent why we aren't closing 03/31/21 as stated on the closing statement. She sent me a cut and paste from the sales agreement that they can go to 75 days to close. Yes, I am aware of that. Keep in mind, I was asked to send funds over two weeks ago and won't do it as I've been burned recently. I have a check in a folder, so it is already out of my account anyway. I can get it to FL overnight.

DH doesn't want to go one day past 75 as he is tired of the BS. Let's see if the seller can get to the Embassy (April 5 or later) to get docs notarized and get it mailed back in order to close in two weeks. At least now they are on notice that we will walk if they don't send the docs.

Back in January we were trying to close on two contracts and the darn seller went about a month PAST the drop dead date. We swore we wouldn't do that again...

this is the contract: MICKIMINI---$110-$6562-50-SSR-Sep-0/19, 0/20, 67/21, 50/22- sent 2/4, passed 3/5

Thanks disboard friends for letting me vent!

Ohhhhh I waited 5 months to get mine closed, same situation with international sellers. They couldn't find a notary, then had it notarized incorrectly. We went months past the closing date of December! I almost gave up several times! I passed ROFR in like October or November and finally got my points loaded in February. I added on direct. Almost lost my mind and added on resale at BLT for $165 again tonight, but sent my vacation guide a message and added on those 50 points direct instead! Points will be in my account tomorrow and for the same price. There are never enough points and I may do something crazy resale again someday. Not today though hahaha

Mine as well, fingers crossed for tomorrow!

All it takes is faith and trust....oh and a little bit of pixie dust. Here's to us all....

No doubt, that will be cut from the movie...

Of course this is easier said than done, but when buying resale it couldn’t hurt to just expect some of these bumps along the way.

I would love the info on the other 6 taken for PVB. I’m so worried now. When I made my offer I was going under the old “they aren’t taking Poly” assumption as I had dipped out of watching the market for a few months. Then I heard they started buying a lot of PVB in February but still thought my price was high enough. But now, as prices climb, I’m worried it wasn’t enough. I would have paid a few $$ more pp if I had known it would be close just for the peace of mind. Very worried.

Here's everything for Poly (excluding the direct sales) back to 3/17 when the 6 others were taken:

Everything that was taken was below $140 so hopefully that will hold for yours too! (note that in my original post, I had mistakenly listed the 3/22 one as 200 points when it's actually 190).

 

[achinforsomebacon]

Is there a list of the AKL deeds?

I've been tracking BLT and PVB so I had the info on those. If you do a search as I noted in posts 2705 and 2716 with "animal kingdom" in the legal remarks you'll get the AKV deeds. Then it's a matter of going through them to see what's been passing vs taken. The passes are much easier to calculate since most show the total cost and number of points. The ones that are taken are a pain because you have to figure out the points.

Think that 190 points might be the one I had TAKEN.

I’m FINALLY going to be a DVC member!
I guess 3rd time was a charm! And, in retrospect, this was the best contract of the three for my family and the time we travel. Honestly, I was so excited to finally try to buy in that I jumped on my first contract that was for PVB without really thinking it through. I love Poly, but with a family of 5, we need to be able to stay somewhere other than Studios and Bungalows. My second contract was VGF with fewer points and a UY that wasn’t as good as this one. So, all that to say, I’m glad it all worked out and the last two months of pulling my hair out have been worth it! Can’t wait to plan my first trip as a DVC member with those banked points!

YAY!!! Welcome Home! SO Happy for you to join the DVC Family! . and hum.. VGF is SO amazing (we hope to add that as a home someday) - I think you are right - the universe was just leading you to the right first home for you! So many years of magical memories await you

Agree. It's gone from a pot hole 15 years ago to a full blown farm road after a wet winter (I'm in NH). I just thought I would share my experience with some of the newer buyers. It is totally worth saving lots of money!

I think it has to do with the sellers getting a notary. Depending on what state they’re in I’m sure covid does not help with that either. I received mine last Wednesday and returned them and am in the same boat. My agent reached out to the sellers and they said they’re trying to get it notarized asap. I just think covid has slowed down the entire process unfortunately. I’m sure it’ll be soon

Yeah but for me at least it was so easy- I just went to my bank and had them notorize everything. I believe most all banks have a notary. I didn't even need an appointment- I just went when they opened and I was first seen. Very easy. So I guess I just don't get this. Maybe its just me though being anxious and wanting this process to finally conclude - I mean its been since 1/31 now when I submitted my offer!

So excited, second attempt for AKV, and thanks to everyone on this group for sharing their info.

Goodness! How long can it take to sign closing documents. You would think they would want their money!! I don't get it.

Fingers crossed you will be sending us good news soon!

Depends on where you live.
