Do want to get out of your timeshare? Are you considering donation as a potential exit solution? If you answered yes to either question, please take into consideration the three risks to waiting:
1. Most people end up waiting until they have to pay the next year’s maintenance fees again. And remember, most owners will see an increase in their maintenance fees each year.
2. Because of challenging market conditions, the cost of timeshare exit-solutions keeps going up. If you wait now, you will probably have to pay more later.
3. We may not accept your timeshare later. Worsening market conditions keep forcing us to add more timeshare resorts and companies to our “Do NotAccept” list. These timeshares have little to no market value, or the resort has created a bureaucracy around title transfer that is too complicated, too costly, or dependent on a lengthy approval process for new owners. You might find yourself stuck with a timeshare you truly have no way out of!
So carefully consider your options, but do it quickly. Of course, our mantra is, “Don’t Wait, Donate!”. The timeshare market is volatile, and things change quickly. If a timeshareexit-solution is what you are looking for, we have several. Contact us today. We’d be happy to counsel you on your options.
Time is Money. Don't Wait to Long To Get Rid of Your Timeshare!
“A lot of people don’t think of it because it’s hard to sell them is donating it to charity. Think about an organization like Donate for a Cause. The tax deduction you will get since it is a charitable organization is you can get the full market value and add to it the other charitable contributions and write off up to 50% of your adjusted gross income. That takes the hassle out of selling it and you’re doing a good thing.” -Sharon Epperson
Timeshare scams are a major problem right now. Telemarketers contact owners out of the blue claiming to have a buyer and then ask for upfront fees ranging from $300-$5000. They will take your money and then not follow through on any of their promises. Washington State Attorney General Rob McKenna talks to Herb Weisbaum about avoiding timeshare selling scams and what you can do to protect yourself and safely unload your timeshare.

Timeshares offer a reliable way to vacation, and spacious accommodations. However, the timeshare industry has many pitfalls that unknowing consumers can get trapped in. Know your timeshare liabilities and minimize your risk by buying a pre-owned timeshare and reviewing the following points.
1. Your timeshare will age. To keep up with competitors and maintain accommodations that meet contemporary design standards, your resort will need to make periodic upgrades. What is the history of special assessments at your timeshare resort? What future special assessments might you face?
2. Don’t take out a loan to buy a timeshare; the interest rates are too high. Find a timeshare you can afford outright, on the resale market. http://www.donateforacause.org/timeshares-for-sale.php
3. A retail priced timeshare, like a new car, will depreciate the moment you purchase it. Timeshares are not an investment, but a luxury item. Timeshares are designed to provide you entertainment value, so you must use them to realize their merit.
4. The timeshare market is a buyers’ market! You can find great deals every day on timeshare that suits your travel needs and budget. You will find incredible prices at 50-70% off retail.
5. When you decide to remove yourself from your timeshare title, realize you will lose some money on the sale of your timeshare. Rarely will you receive more money for the timeshare than you paid for it.
