If you own a timeshare, you
probably already know that there are a large amount of hidden costs associated
with them. Our timeshare
exit team talks to consumers daily who have purchased a
timeshare without knowing exactly what they will be paying for and how much the
timeshare will actually cost them annually.
When you buy a timeshare, you
are basically buying a stake or part in a vacation property. There are a few
different types of timeshares, and they all have different ownership costs and
a different timeshare
exit cost.
The most popular type of
timeshare is a points-based timeshare. A points timeshare works similarly to
credit card points. You purchase a set number of points that you can spend on
vacations. Depending on the resort you purchased through you may have some
extra flex points that you can earn each year to spend on longer or more exotic
vacations. Points-based timeshares offer the most flexibility in terms of when
and where you can use them.
While a points-based
timeshare sounds ideal, our timeshare exit team hears plenty
about their pitfalls. The main complaint with points-based timeshares is that
the best destinations and prime vacation times cost too many points. This means
that you have to either settle for a lesser vacation or spend extra money to
buy more points. So you’re paying a monthly fee in addition to extra fees to
get the vacation you want. Also, flex points are often not as flexible as you
are led to believe they are.
Another hidden fee with
points-based timeshares comes when you are trying to figure out how to get rid of a timeshare.
Points-based timeshares are virtually impossible to sell. With a surplus of new inventory offered by resorts,
you timeshare will build almost no equity. Selling it will almost always result
in a loss. Additionally, you will have to make yearly maintenance payments that
are not fixed and can increase each year.
The second type of timeshare
that our timeshare
exit team deals with is a fixed week timeshare. In a fixed week timeshare,
you own a portion of a vacation property (usually one week a year, so 1/52 of
the property). When you buy a fixed week timeshare, you are actually purchasing
real estate, so there are additional fees associated with deeding the property
(usually not factored in by the timeshare company or shared with you upfront).
If you want to get out of a
fixed week timeshare, the timeshare
exit cost is usually pretty steep. Since you actually own a
portion of the property, when you sell it there are additional fees. And if the
resort is located in a different country (which happens frequently), there are
a ton of hidden fees and taxes you have to pay for the transfer.
Also, a fixed week timeshare
means that you bought a specific week at a specific property. If you decide to
sell your timeshare you have to find a buyer who wants that particular week at
that particular property. It can be a little like searching for a needle in a
haystack.
In many cases, regardless of
the type of timeshare, there are many fees that you can take you by surprise,
especially if you decide that it is time to get rid of your timeshare. Despite
what the sales people told you during your presentation, timeshares do not
often gain equity. So, what does that mean for you? It means that even after
selling it, you may still owe the timeshare company money. Selling your
timeshare may not absolve you of the debt or even get you out of the contract.
Rather than selling your
timeshare, you should look into timeshare cancellation. Our timeshare
exit team knows how to get your out of a timeshare without
accumulating any negative equity. Meaning, that when you cancel your timeshare
you are out of your contract and you do not owe the timeshare company anything
extra.
We don’t do timeshare sales,
and we aren’t timeshare attorneys. We don’t charge exorbitant fees, and we aren’t
trying to make a commission on the sale of your timeshare. All we do is
timeshare cancellation, and our only loyalty is to our customers.
We have helped many
individuals and families cancel a timeshare. Don’t try to do it alone because
you can often do more harm than good. In fact, we have seen cases of doing it
yourself timeshare cancellations that have been so mixed up that it actually
becomes impossible to cancel the timeshare.
Instead of trying it by
yourself, call our timeshare
exit team today. We offer a satisfaction guarantee on all of our
timeshare cancellation services. You have nothing to lose. Call us today!
