Get Rid of Your Timeshare

Today, many timeshare owners find it difficult to get rid of their timeshare. Most owners look to selling their timeshare first, as a way to recoup some of their original investment. Unfortunately, the low ratio of buyers to sellers has depressed the re-sale market to a point where many owners cannot find relief from their timeshare ownership. Owners other options are using the services of timeshare relief or rescue companies, or they try to give away their timeshare. However, owners must be aware of timeshare scams and deceitful companies when trying to ged rid of their timeshare(s). Owners are now finding the easiest way to get out of their timeshare is donating their timeshare(s) to charity. Donors receive, on average $6,500 in tax savings through the donation of their unwated timeshare. Below are the descriptions of the services owners can use to get rid of timeshares.

Donation

Many timeshare owners are not even aware that they have the option to donate their timeshare. Donate for a Cause uses donated timeshares to raise much needed capital for our affiliated charities. Timeshare donation is a mutually beneficial arrangement: the great charities we serve receive much needed financial contributions and timeshare owners who become donors are entitled to a tax credit and freedom from timeshare ownership. Donors receive, on average, $6,500 in tax savings through the donation of their unwanted timeshare. In most cases, the tax savings far exceed the cost of donation, which is just like putting cash back into our owners’ pockets. Please contact one of our donation specialists today for a free assessment of your timeshare donation.

Rescue Companies

Timeshare rescue companies (also known as timeshare relief companies) typically charge a timeshare owner between $2,500 and $6,500 to rid them of their ownership. While they do typically perform, they are not actually taking ownership of the timeshare as Donate for a Cause does. Many timeshare relief companies do not take full ownership of the timeshare so timeshare owners on the hook for maintenance fees and special assessments should they not be able to find a buyer for the timeshare. When Donate for a Cause accepts your timeshare for donation, we take the title out of your name, guaranteed.

Timeshare Listing Companies

Timeshare Listing Companies charge a fee (as low as $60 all the way up to several thousands of dollars) to list a timeshare in a number of online and print categories in the hopes of finding a new owner for the timeshare. While the concept of listing a timeshare for sale might make sense, the listing company has no real incentive to sell a timeshare. In fact, not selling the timeshare is beneficial to a listing company due to the fact that they will receive listing dues month after month, until a timeshare owner is too frustrated to continue to pay them.
