Updated with closing doc info. Sending the docs back was complicated by the fact that my wife's name was misspelled on the documentation and the title company wasn't too keen on answering any phone calls/emails attempting to clarify the error.

We are hoping to close before a trip on Dec 21st so that we can direct add on and update existing tickets to APs - but given the speed of things to date I'm not overly optimistic.
 
Most the dates jump from listing when ROFR is passed to listing when Closing Docs are received. Isn't there a step in-between on when Disney sends the Estoppel letter (per the original title of this topic)? I'm curious how long Disney typical takes for this and why it's so inconsistent? See the person above who went from ROFR passing to closing docs in 2 days, it seems like Disney must have sent the letter almost instantly. But we're on 13 days and counting since we were notified we passed ROFL and the title company is still waiting on Estoppel to begin the closing docs. What's typical these day and what's the range? You'd think they would process them in some kind of order but it's interesting that it sometimes can happen in just a day and sometimes apparently can take several weeks or more.

I am wondering if it will take the full 2-3 weeks?

I officially have a DVC membership!!!
 
Got my closing papers on the 10th, woot! Ran into another bump when I saw the closing docs and noticed the amount to close was higher than expected. Had to email the escrow officer/title company...found out they forgot to charge escrow to my credit card. They charged the card and sent updated closing docs reflecting escrow deposit in an hour or two, so no biggie.

First time buying into DVC. Just got an email from DVC Sales that ROFR passed :)
There were a few little bumps in the road (use year ended up being different than initially stated, so contract had to be updated and I asked for points to be banked. It was a little odd that after I made my first offer at asking price, seller made a counter offer for a couple dollars per point higher, but it was still plenty fair price so I still accepted, and I was initially a little confused over who paid 2017 dues) but overall so far not bad, definitely easier than I thought for a resale purchase! I don't even think I had many questions because I learned so much from this board!

for most does the Estoppel take 3 full weeks? then another week before a closing? We passed ROFR on Nov 10th, just wondering if we will squeak by with a closing before Dec8th.

Rushed to get everything mailed back... hope the sellers do the same or we're going to be slowed down by Thanksgiving. Hoping for a Christmas miracle... points by 12/8 so we can book at 7 months for VGC in July, oh and a real miracle would be a studio, but just hoping for a 1bd.

Contract is a December Use Year. Seller responsible for 2017 dues, me for 2018 - which are to be paid in full if closing happens December 2 or later. Emailed title company today (11/22) to see where things stand, and was told they are just waiting on information about 2018 dues. Research told me that dues will be voted on at December 7 meeting, so I it would seem I am hold until at least December 8. Is title company holding this up? Or is this common?
