Still waiting on seller to return closing documents. I emailed Mason when I sent back closing documents and asked them to inform me when seller returned documents and I would send check.They said they would. I have learned not to send check in too early as I have had several sellers not return documents for several weeks after I sent the money .
 


Still waiting on seller to return closing documents.

It’s amazing how long so many sellers take to send in the documents. I just can’t understand why they do that. If I was selling I’d want my cash ASAP.

I’m definitely not sending any more money until the sellers send back their documents.

Would others say this is common? As someone going through the process of buying their first resale contract, following this and the ROFR thread, I thought "Closing docs returned:" meant signed paperwork + payment sent to the title company. I like the idea of not sending the money until the seller has returned the closing docs though. Does that delay the process at all?

Sharing some information in the hopes it will help others...

Background: Current member, closed and deed was recorded 5/22.

I knew it was going to take a bit for the contract to show and waited. Tuesday (6/22) I received an email mid-day from Member Administration stating that the transfer went through and "the new contract has been listed under your current Member Number." They also indicated it would take 7-10 additional business days before I see the points in my account.
Nothing showed, so almost 48 hours later I replied to the email (and was abundantly kind and thankful, as always) and within the hour I had an email about setting up autopay on my new contract. Logged in, and there it was!

I'm not suggesting we all flood them with emails but if your deed was recorded around when mine was, it's probably worth a friendly note.

Thanks. I'm going to drop a note today. We were filed with OC Comptroller on the same day and I haven't heard a peep.

I wonder whether this would work if you were not current member. Could you send me the email address or direct me to the right place please?

Finally!!! Almost there!

I finally also can breathe a sigh of relief that it wasn't all a big scam... 😂

Interestingly though, my first 2 direct contracts show as Kidani, but this one shows as Jambo! We much prefer Jambo, so glad that the bulk of our points are arbitrarily aligned to it.

Wowww Mason Title and Magic Vacation Title getting those closing docs out quick. Let's move it along Fidelity 😄
 
Mason seems to have a secret way to receive the estoppel. First American says it takes 3-4 weeks to receive it before they can send closing documents and close but Mason seems to close much quicker.

I'm a week today from ROFR passing, but still waiting for closing. I'm using TRCS this time, though I'm not familiar with them at all. I wish now I had asked for Mason...
