I'm working with them now and they showed me an estoppel from January. I requested that an updated copy be provided at close and they seemed confused as to why I would ask. Is it out of line for me to ask for that or am I being overly concerned?
Is the fee due monthly? If not the January estoppel is probably fine. If it is due monthly then seeing an updated one makes sense.

Yes, it is due monthly. They also emailed me to let me know it's under contract after initially telling me it was available. Lovely... fine use of my time.

Any recent opinions on this company? I saw an ad in the tug marketplace that was interesting and replied, they responded. Answered question promptly but I was wondering if anyone had used them within the past 90 days?

I wanted to add a data point. I had a positive experience working with Breanne at Express Closing. I bought MGC 2 BR EOY. I'd use them again. Much better than Redweek full service or the outfits associated with SMTN.

I am in the process of buying an annual CWA from them. I just sent the paperwork to get the ball rolling I used my credit card. I’ll keep you guys posted if anything turns up. Before I bought I searched tugg about Breanne and people had no issues. If the company survives. I plan to buy more as the family grows

I am also in the process of waiting for my points to arrive in my HGVC account after a purchase with Express Closing. I was a bit apprehensive but Breanne was fine to work with and very responsive. I spoke with a well known resale agent on this forum who told me that there was no way my purchase would pass ROFR and she would have listed the same property much higher. But I got notification a couple days ago that it had passed ROFR and received a copy of the deed with my info on it. Now waiting for the final processing which should take about 30 days. If anything specifically goes wrong with this purchase, I will update. But at this point everything has been smooth sailing.

I bought my first HGVC recently from Breanne at Express Closing Firm LLC and the experience has been smooth. An honest company to deal with, and I will certainly use her again if needed.

Has anyone worked with the following on purchasing a timeshare:

Express Closing Firm, LLC
1420 South Enterprise Ave., Suite H
Springfield, MO 65804


How did the transaction go? Were you happy with the experience?
I purchased 2 units through them in May 2019 (both 4800 point 1BR Platinum units at LV Boulevard). The price was awesome on the first one and even better on the second. Breanne was fantastic to work with. She responded quickly to emails, even on weekends and both closed in record time. I would highly recommend them.

Just closed the deal and when I logged in I saw my new contract points. I’ve had zero issues. The paperwork and the ads are pretty transparent. Nothing hidden. I have all the points that I will ever need. But if I need more I would not hesitate in acquiring more with her again

They block buyers from asking important legal questions.

I wanted to buy a timeshare and requested additional information in copies to review of the CC&Rs and the Membership Contract I would have to take over. Breanne said she wouldn't supply such irregular requests since the Estoppel was all that was necessary. I insisted, saying any buyer needs to know what legal contract obligations they are taking over before purchase. Her response was blocking me from ever buying through TUGBBS. Huh?? Why should a buyer NOT want to read the underlying contract and CC&R? How does she have the right to block legitimate buyers from buying because they ask questions?

For those not experienced. The estoppel only shows that the current timeshare can be sold and has no current debt, payments due, or other current problems with it. The CC&Rs and Membership contract has a WHOLE LOT of other conditions, obligations, and restrictions it's important to know before a new buyer gets stuck.

Dispute the charge (within the credit card company's timeframe) - this can definitely be done.
PayPal/Ebay protection does not extend to real estate transactions.
My guess is using their portal lowers their CC transaction fees or they get a kickback.

Hi, all! Breanne with Express Closing here.

eBay does not allow timeshare purchases through their payment system. They 100% will not be a part of the exchange of money when it comes to timeshares. However, we have evolved as a company since 2018 and now we accept PayPal payments.
