Tips for
selling/renting
a timeshare
1. Check with your resort to see
if they know of other owners who
might have an interest in buying.
The resort may be able to give
you information about the value of
resales. The number of resorts taking
back timeshares is increasing. Ask
about current policies.
2. Place a classifi ed ad
on the TimeSharing Today
classifi ed ad website: www.
tstonlineclassifi ed.com. Many
variables affect the salability
of a unit, so we cannot advise
you as to price. You should be
aware of various factors, such
as desirability of the resort,
amenities, unit size, season, and
price. See the ad in this issue.
3. Place an ad in local
newspapers near your resort.
4. You may try the services of
a resale broker. If possible, look for
one who works on a commission
basis. See the listings we have
provided. A licensed broker can
advise you on price and other
options.
5. Other companies also offer
online advertising at affordable
rates. You can fi nd their ads in this
issue as well.
6. Be aware: Many scam
operators solicit owners through
telemarketing and email. They
usually ask for money to locate
a buyer or to place listings on
websites. In some cases, they ask
you to provide personal information
and end up sending a bogus check
or money order. Ignore them.
