I would call them instead of e-mail. Also, insist on speaking to a person who will help you and to not be put in voicemail. We just closed with First American every time I called they would put me in voicemail first and they never call you back, so I would just call right back and insist on a person and then they would get me somebody who would actually answer my simple questions about the status of my closing.I can’t even get my person from First American to tell me if they got my contract and large check (I did not finance) I sent last week. It was suposed to be over night mailing. My response to the email I sent was “we get lots of FedEx documents” when we go through them all we will let you know. I dare not ask if the seller has returned their documents yet lol!

Also, our broker was Fidelity and they always knew the status when I would call them instead. They get some kind of either daily or realtime report from First American. Good luck!

Points in my account:
If you click on search official records and then I put my info in the Search either party (last name, first name). It is also very specific- my last name has an apostrophe but it was filed with a space so if I search with the apostrophe, it won't show up. What broker did you use?Where and what do you put in to search for you deed on the site? Mine still hasn't been added I don't think and I closed today too.

Ok- I was just wondering bc I've used Fidelity (First American) and DVCResaleMarket (Magic Vacation) and both times I was notified early in the morning that I closed and my deed showed that it was filed at pretty much the same time. I wasn't sure if some companies notify you of closing prior to the deed being recorded.The Timeshare Store and my title company was First American.
I think that answer depends on if the seller has easy access to someone who can help notarize the documents. Foreign sellers would most likely go to the US embassy in their country and get the papers notarized, and if its easy to get an appointment then it should be fairly fast.What is the usual time for the seller (out of the country) to sign and return the contract? Almost two weeks now.

Ya no idea, still no deed on the site for me. It's weird because it seems like almost everyone in here sees the deed on it the same day they're told it closed. Oh well I just have to have patience I guess!
Do you know for sure that the title company have received the sellers documents? My deed was recorded around the day after the sellers documents was received.
2 days ago my broker stated that they had the sellers documents at the title company and were working on closing. I got an email from First American yesterday morning stating we had closed and the transaction was finalized.
I would guesstimate that the recording is just around the corner then. Have you called and asked when they expect to record the deed?
