While struggling with a world wide financial recession, quite a bit of consumers are looking through all of their assets and beginning to think, “Is it worth it for me to sell this?”. One of the first possessions that people look to sell in the unfortunate time of financial hardship is their timeshares. Timeshares, although truly enjoyable, tend to be an extremely costly luxury to keep up. Between mortgage expenses and annual maintenance charges, the burden many times can become way too much for some consumers to take. However, is it worth it for people to sell a timeshare in today's market? What are the risks and rewards associated with selling timeshares today?

To provide the answers to these questions, we have to take a deep look into the timeshare supply and demand factors. Sadly for those Americans making an attempt to sell their timeshares, these factors go against them these days.

Timeshare corporations have been building timeshares world wide throughout the past few decades. This has created an extremely large supply of timeshares all around the world. Also, because of wide spread financial recession, quite a bit of people have listed their timeshares on the secondary market. Between companies putting up new properties and consumers attempting to sell their own properties, an influx of available timeshares have been added to the market. Now let's take a look at the demand factor in the equation. As the world wide financial climate continues to become more and more stormy, a great deal of consumers have stopped purchasing luxury items. This has created an extreme drop in the consumer demand for timeshares.


So, after reading the above, I am sure you can tell, now is not the time to try and sell a timeshare. So, what do people do who just can't afford to keep their timeshare? Should these Americans let their timeshare go into foreclosure? The simple answer is not to let anything go into foreclosure. However, for those who feel like they have no other options, I have come across an option that is extremely feasible.

This option is called timeshare cancellation. Timeshare cancellation is the process of deeding a timeshare back to the developer based on discrepancies in the sales process associated with that timeshare. Simply put, timeshare sales representatives have 52 laws that regulate their jobs. If they broke any of these laws in the sale of your timeshare, you will be a great candidate for timeshare cancellation. Although I don't have enough space to go over all 52 laws, the most commonly broken are:

Long tours: It is unlawful for a timeshare sales representative to sell a timeshare to a consumer if they had been part of a tour that lasted longer than 90 minutes in that same day.


Forceful and Aggressive Sales Tactics: These include false sense of urgency, rushed closing, failure to point out cancellation policy, insinuating a good investment, etc... If you feel any of these tactics were used in your sale, you may qualify for timeshare cancellation.

It is advised to get professional help when deciding to pursue the process of timeshare cancellation. Please do not attempt to fight the legal team these developers have without getting a team to fight with you first!
