Posted on Feb 26, 2010 under Sell Time Share | 3 Commentsokay well i have a timeshare in orlando florida. im trying to sell my timeshare and most of times its all scams. where and what can i do to sell my timeshare with out getting scamed? please help!
If there is a mail box or a community bulletin board at your home resort, you can put a “For sale” sign. This will pressure the developer specially if they sell it for $20,000 USD and you offer it for $5,000. Sometimes on the fine print of some sale agreements says that the developer has the first right to buy if your place is ever sold. I have heard of developers paying the money (as long as is not too much) just to take the sign out.
To resale or rent a timeshare is a hard task, the basic rule is not to pay money up-front, don’t be another victim of a scam.
Unfortunately over 50% of people that really need to sell their timeshare falls for these resale scams where they charge money upfront and less than 10% of them use their only real option which is to post it or offer it trough free advertising options as much and as many sites as they can (it is ok to pay a few dollars to post in a great place but no more that $20 to $30).
Timeshares do not have resale value and in most situations you would take a loss in what you paid for, as they resale for less than $2000 USD.

Timeshares Only. Saw an ad on television for it. BTW. Don’t buy another timeshare. Renting is much, MUCH, cheaper.

For low cost advertising you can try to sell it on ebay or craiglist. However, many timeshares are not selling because of the current economic situation. You will also need to work with a title company to insure proper transfer of your deed.
If you want a guaranteed solution, you can try Timeshare Relief. They offer an exit strategy so that you can put aside those timeshare-related financial obligations forever. You do need to pay a fee for this service, but the upside is not waiting for a buyer that may never materialize. The service is guaranteed. They do have qualifications like for example, your timeshare needs to be paid off in full. You can call them at 1-866-797-0535.
