Can’t Get Enough of Timeshare


1960s marked the role of timeshare in our lives. It opened in an hotelier in the French Alps that started to offer vacation packages with a slogan “why rent a room, buy the hotel”. It became successful in decades as it spread across the globe giving more families the chance to experience a vacation of a lifetime.

Timeshare promises four things: luxury, comfort, convenience, and cost saving.

When we talk about timeshare luxury, it only gives you the first-class accommodations in high-class units. The timeshare units offer only spacious suites that are ideal for your family. It has fully-equipped kitchen that is conducive for easy-cooking. So you don’t have to go outside and buy a meal. Its dining and entertainment rooms manifest the kind of living a king gets with its fully-furnished tables, chairs, etc. and the wide-screen cabled television. Of course, you are not plainly stuck up inside your units. Timeshare allows you to use other facilities such as tennis courts, golf courses, etc. You can also enjoy skiing and snowboarding if you chose a timeshare in Vermont. You can stroll around their theme parks in Disney. Or enjoy watching movies since you will be given free movie passes. Maintaining your health and fitness routine is not a problem as timeshare also has high-tech work-out facilities. Isn’t it luxurious?

A king only resides in a comfortable place. Why wouldn’t it be comfortable if it only gives you some of the benefits I’ve mentioned? The timeshare staff and crew shall render quality services that will give more comfort on your stay.
When you decided to go on a vacation, you are always faced with the hassles of booking. Since you are busy, you only have limited time to browse your yellow pages or search in the internet. You often end up choosing the wrong place. Or you might end up choosing the more expensive ones. Once you have a timeshare, you don’t have to think about bookings. Just call and make a reservation.

More than anything else, you want your hard-earned money to be spent on something worth spending to. When you decide to go for overnight stays in hotels, the costs can really be off the budget. But with timeshare, it lets you save hotel accommodations in a span of 30 years. There’s really a significant difference to such amount. With the fully-equipped kitchen that you have in your timeshare, you don’t have to spend additional meal expenses when you eat at the restaurants.

The population and popularity of timeshare has encompassed every vacation expectations you and your family have. Why suffer on the many hassles of booking, poor vacation accommodation, and untrained staff when you have timeshare around?

Why Not Timeshare?

Vacation time is fast approaching and what more can a family think of rather than spending a wonderful vacation. You might be preoccupied with turning the pages of your directory to find out some nice place to visit. But you probably have no time making a call and inquire on these resorts. Then suddenly you remember that it’s about time that you and your family purchase a timeshare.

Oops! You might as well not. While timeshare gives you a hassle-free vacation, it might turn out to be a real hassle in the long run. Yes, you can save for hotel expenses in a span of 30 years, but you will be consumed with paying the increasing annual maintenance fees.

Let’s start on the most important detail of purchasing an item or a property—and that is money. Of course, once you purchase an item, you get to pay them first-hand. Timeshare of course costs a thousand dollars. But apart from that first payment, you will have to pay for its maintenance and miscellaneous fees. These fees are mandated by the resort for the continuous upkeep of your unit. You don’t want your unit to be messy or dysfunctional. The fees itself shall also be used for other bills such as phone, water, and electricity. The maintenance fees are paid annually that cost around $250 depending on the property you have chosen. Now, these fees are sometimes confusing in contracts. So might as well find out under fees as these may escalate if for example the timeshare organization decides to increase it.

And most likely it will increase due to the ongoing global recession. In 2008, timeshare sales have dropped. The major hotel chains like Wyndham, Starwood and Marriott have reported that there was a significant timeshare sales drop because of the lack of market. Since there has been a financial crisis, people did not choose timeshare as a vacation getaway. Two of the mentioned hotels have stopped its construction while Marriott continued since it is already at its last phase of development and still opened its doors to those who still wanted a timeshare though the public thought it was stupid for them to do so. Starwood have slashed down employees and closed some of its offices. The sales loss tremendously affected the timeshare industry that its sales increase as of this early 2010 was not significant though.

What so devastating about timeshare is that if you decide to dispatch your unit you just cannot easily find a market. It is pretty hard to sell a property that is not worth investing and is not really an investment at all!

Now if someone gives it to you as a gift, then you might as well disregard it. Remember the increasing maintenance fees!

Nowadays, we don’t just consider the fun and excitement of spending on an extravagant vacation. Since the world is suffering on a severe economic crisis, think wisely of spending your hard-earned cash. You don’t want to waste every single centavo that you have earned.

What is a Deeded Timeshare?

Everyone can own timeshares. Everyone has the right to choose what type of ownership would he or she wants to have when it comes to the timeshare. One of the many types of ownership is the deeded type of timeshare ownership.

According to an article of Jason Tremblay entitled Deeded Timeshare: A Closer Look at the Pros and Cons, deeded timeshare was very famous before. And even though nowadays, even though its not famous compared before, there are still some people who opt for this type of ownership. With this kind of ownership, what one should expect? People who have this kind of ownership just own a percentage of their timeshare unit as well as the timeshare’s resort areas. If you would compare it with the Rights to Use Timeshare Ownership, the latter is a more or less a lease agreement which grants the owner in utilizing his or her property at a specific time for a few years.

Moreover, even though deeded timeshare provides you with a number of rights for your timeshare, of course, there are also equivalent responsibilities for you because of these rights. And if ever you want to give away your deeded timeshare, you can always opt for a timeshare exchange which will be done by your chosen trusted timeshare company.

However, you must remember that when you have this kind of timeshare ownership, you are held responsible for ay liabilities which may appear within the timeshare resort. if someone got hurt within the vicinity of the timeshare resort, that someone can file a case against the resort and the deeded owners may have the chance to be also responsible for what happened.

With this, you must be really careful with your deeded timeshare. You must read the terms and conditions carefully before you approve of anything regarding owning the said timeshare. All you have to do is to be careful.

Timeshare, Anyone?

With almost everyone getting close-fisted, selling a timeshare is no easy task. So we tend to quickly seek for the experts but this might not be necessary after learning some basic facts.

First, you must know your Unique Selling Proposition (USP). When it comes to Time-Share, you must highlight to your buyers how Time-Share offers a carefree vacation. It’s like owning your vacation. No need to fuss over where you can find an accommodation and whether it has the amenities you needed.

Second, you must know whether you want to completely sell your time-share or you might only want to sell a period of time of your timeshare. You might seek a help from a real estate agency if you choose to sell your timeshare completely. If you’re selling a timeshare outright, it is best to seek for a property management company of the site. These companies provide opportunities where your Time-Share can be advertised to prospective buyers through listing or bulletin boards at the location.

Before getting listed, make sure you know the laws concerning Time-Share. Laws may vary from state to state. Because of its joint-ownership nature, be familiar with additional rules such as the approval of the new buyer.

Be ready for the cost entailed in selling a Time-Share. Don’t expect much out of it. Keep in mind that the company who owned and sold the property spent a lot in marketing it alone making the price way higher than it actually cost in building it.

Getting your timeshare listed can be done in two ways. First, you might want to hire an agent to guide you in any legal issues and other concerns since these people are familiar with the task. Or you can do it on your own through the internet in Web sites catering timeshare resales.

If you’re only into temporary leasing your timeshare, it might be better to get it listed in Websites without hiring an agent or an agency.
