Well, my most recent Aulani contract closed on 8/15, and was sent to Disney on 8/16, and still no sign of it on my dashboard. Saw a couple last week that showed at 10 days, but we are now at 15 and counting.

I would guess they are a bit behind after closing from 1-14. Probably got a ton of transfers at once. At least its way better than Marriott. Had to wait 60 business days

I get itchy when I see these:

Deed recorded: 8/14
Contract Showing on Membership (existing member): 08/24

and:

Deed recorded: 8/14
Contract Showing on Membership (existing member): 8/25

and I know I had my paperwork sent over to Disney just 2 days later (8/16).

I never posted my entire timeline but just wanted share my experience with a different title company this time.

Last contract we used FirstAm and they are definitely slower. This time for our 2nd contract, my agent actually asked if we have a preference so I went with Mason and so glad I chose them! In my experience, they are more responsive and faster. Our offer was accepted on 7/3, and my contract membership showed up on my dashboard on 8/24 or 8/25. I did a chat with MS on 8/27 and got my points loaded immediately.

From start to finish, just about 54 days total, not bad at all! Compared to our 1st contract it was over 3 months! Way better experience this time!

So, I just got this email regarding a contract I’m selling:

As we all know Disney is running behind, they are taking 2-8 weeks to transfer to the new owner. PLEASE let both myself and the title company when the property is no longer on your dashboard, we will then start following up with the buyer.

Once the transfer is 100% complete the title company will release your funds. They cannot release the funds until the transfer is complete on both ends.

Has anyone else who’s sold a contract lately had to wait until DVC switches the points? I keep reading about people who get their money within a matter of days. @Sandisw?

Days Total: 54, offer to contract showing. Things were moving along quite nicely until Disney decided to take 21 days to process it, while other contracts recorded the same day were processed in 9 or 10 days. It IS Aulani, but I've had other Aulani contracts appear on my dashboard much quicker (same broker, same title company).
