It has come to my attention that consumers are still being misled by resale companies in Europe. I have spoken to a number of clients that have parted with their credit card details prior to the 14 days applicable by law. This is a criminal offence and punishable by law, whether you are buying or selling timeshare.
Cancellation Period of 14 Days
I am astonished that companies persist in breaking the law even now that it is pretty straight forward. The consumer has 14 days cancellation period on any purchase or sale, and it is illegal for the trader to take any consideration in anyway shape or form until that period is over. It is also illegal to hold credit card details on file and this contravenes the data protection act.
European Timeshare Directive from 2011
Disclosure:- Consumers must be given a written contract containing, as a minimum, the following:-
- Identity, place of residence and legal status of the trader party to the contract.
- Date and place of contract.
- Short description of the services (i.e. marketing).
- Duration of the contract.
- Price to be paid by the consumer and any further obligatory costs.
- Whether or not the trader has signed a code of conduct and where it can be found.
- That the consumer has 14 calendar days in which to cancel the contract without giving any reason but may incur costs which must be clearly set out in the contract.
- An absolute ban on the payment of anything by the consumer until the service has been completed.
It also states the following in the European Timeshare Directive. If any of the information that I have provided has not been followed and exercised the consumers cancellation period may be longer than the stated 14 days.
- Consumers must be given a full copy of the agreement immediately upon signing
- Purchasers must also be given a separate pro-forma cancellation notice stating:-
- Their right to cancel within a 14 calendar day period (the exact date for this period to be entered on the cancellation notice)
- An absolute ban on the payment of any money by the consumer during the cancellation period.
We urge consumers to be vigilant when it comes to being supplied with the correct information on the secondary market place for timeshare ownership, and if in doubt always take advice from an independent solicitor.

We have been searching the internet for information regarding How to Sell a Timeshare and we have found some very conflicting information. There are companies that are recommending resale agents and brokers as sound places to market their ownership for sale, however on closer inspection of the list of companies very few of them offer the marketplace necessary to promote and sell a timeshare interest.
International Exposure Most Important
One of the most important things to take into consideration when selling a timeshare or vacation ownership is “does the company I have been recommended have great traffic”?. It is apparent to us that a lot of companies have very poor traffic flows and owners of shared ownership will not always know this. There websites look OK, however when you make a search through a major search engine like Google they do not appear. It doesn’t matter how good a website looks if no one can find it.
Worldwide Audience to Sell
Timeshare is a worldwide product and clients will look to buy from all over the world. Make sure the resale company targets clients all over the world. This can be checked online through sites that let you search in other countries. Its always a good idea to search as if you are a buyer and see what companies optimize for timeshare buyers. There are many resale companies on the web that are only interested in sellers, these should be avoided.
Take care when choosing a company
What we believe owners should take in to consideration is whether the company they choose has good global internet presence and appears when you make the relevant search to buy the property of product you own. Having a long track record is another good way of deciding on which company to use. I think that just because a company is recommended doesn’t necessarily mean they provide the right platform for your ownership.
When buyers are looking to purchase a timeshare interest one of the questions they ask themselves is “Will I get value for money“. The value proposition is so important to the buyer that when an owner comes to sell timeshare on the secondary market, pricing is the key in most cases.
Buyer perceived value
The buyer will weigh up the options available and compare them to the onsite deal they have been offered. The price will be more competitive than the onsite price, however in some cases the full rights and privileges may not be transferable. These can differ from program to program, and resort to resort, however please find a few examples below: –
- When buying a Marriott Timeshare Resale the Marriott Reward Points program is non transferable. This is the option to transfer your week into the Hotel Rewards Points program. Do not get this confused with the exchange program Interval International. You ARE able to use this when purchasing on the secondary market.
- The Anfi del Mar group of timeshares based in the Canary Islands will not transfer there Anfi Vacation Club program when a resale is transferred. The Anfi Vacation Club is a Points based program that allows exchanges through RCI. You can use an independent exchange network like Dial an Exchange, or purchase a cheap week from Anfi and put all resales that you own at that time into the program.
- One last example is Starwood. If you would like to participate in the StarOptions program you can only buy a resale at the following resorts, Harborside at Atlantis (I and II), Vistana Villages (Bella and Key West phases), Westin Ka’anapali and Westin Ka’anapali North, Westin Kierland Villas and Westin St. John (Hillside phase). These will allow access to the StarOptions program and any other Starwood Resort wont.
Secondary Market Ownership
These are a few examples of the reasons why resale timeshare can be cheaper, however these are not all the reasons. Buyers will consider the the pros and cons of the secondary market and in most cases they can not see the value in buying onsite. The value in buying resale is plan to see. Buy 5 Star luxury vacations and holiday at great destinations worldwide for a fraction of the cost.
If you need any further information please do not hesitate to contact us and we will be happy to provide it.
When you look through the internet you can always find strange items to buy. One of the strangest is a $1 timeshare resale. It can be very misleading seeing vacation ownership for just a dollar, however this is in most cases just not true.
Sell $1 Timeshare on Ebay
There are many owners looking to Sell Timeshare and over a period of time owners can get dismayed and advertise them on Ebay. When they set up there ad the cheapest way to advertise is to start at a dollar. So there is the first misrepresentation of the $1 timeshare. Just because it has been placed at a dollar doesn’t mean it will sell for a dollar.
Misperception of the $1 Timeshare
One of the most annoying things about the dollar timeshare is that once a potential purchaser finds these $1 timeshares they think that all timeshares should be a dollar. This again is just not true. Depending on location, quality of resort, season and unit view, prices can go upwards to $10′s of thousands even on the resale market.
The truth about the $1 Timeshare
Having said that there are certain resorts and seasons that owners just want to exit from. You will find that these are legacy resorts. Resorts that commonly are completely run by the HOA’s and have no developer onsite to liaise resales. The HOA’s look to collect maintenance fees and are happy for the owners to Sell a Timeshare at a dollar as long as they can keep there revenue stream intact.
