The Truth About Selling A Timeshare
As a timeshare owner or someone looking to sell timeshare, you will probably not like what I am about to reveal.
I owned and ran a timeshare marketing company in the UK for nearly 10 years. As a marketer, I was always on the look out for the cheapest weeks to sell to make the maximum profit for my company.
A lot of resorts, sell there excess inventory or timeshare weeks, to marketers like myself for very little money. I will give you an example: 1 bed red week in Malta in a resort of international distinction, would cost me $2000 including 3 years RCI membership and all trustee costs. A studio in Blue time cost me $500.
You can now get picture of a timeshares real worth as far as property investment is concerned. Not a lot!
The value has always been the savings you make on the luxury holidays that you probably would not have been able to afford or enjoy.
Most of the cost of a timeshare is for marketing. It is unbelievable how much money each customer costs to convert. Unfortunately, you generally pay for 9 other people to have a presentation and gift when you buy a timeshare.
Why am I telling you all this? Well for one, I am no longer in the timeshare selling business. Also, I now spend a great deal of my time helping people sell there timeshare for maximum profit in the shortest time. Feel free to visit my site and I might be able to help you if you need to sell your timeshare.

Non-Exclusive Listing This is the least restrictive type of listing to the seller, and the type we recommend for timeshare listings. The seller can list with any number of brokers and if it sells, the listing is null and void to the other brokers. Our philosophy is, "may the best broker win." 2. Exclusive Right to Sell. Also known as an Exclusive Listing With the type of listing, the seller is giving the broker the exclusive right to sell the property. If it sells, no matter who sells it, whether it is sold by the owner himself or any other broker, the listing broker is due a commission. If an outside broker sells it, the seller is liable for two commissions, one to the listing broker, and one to the broker who procured the buyer. Great consideration should be given before entering into an exclusive listing, because it is the most restrictive listing to the seller. Given to the wrong broker, it just ends up tying up the property without selling. Timeshares are so difficult to sell, we recommend not giving only one broker the exclusive right to sell it. This type of listing mainly protects the broker. The seller is not allowed to list with other brokers or sell it himself without owing the broker a commission. 3. Exclusive Agency This type of listing gives the right to sell to only one agency. The seller can sell on his own, but not through any other broker, without the liability of paying a commission to the listing broker if the property is sold. Again, this is a very restrictive listing to the seller. 4. Net Listing In a net listing, the seller agrees...
