Is a timeshare resale right for you?

Timeshare owners usually fall into one of two categories: those of us who love our timeshares and wouldn’t trade them for all the cruises in the world, and those of us who were, perhaps, wrangled into a deal we weren’t quite ready for. And those of us who haven’t bought timeshare properties but love to travel often wonder about their relative merits.

 

Luckily, we don’t have to wonder anymore. Travel-writer Tom Howell did a comparison of how package vacations stack up against timeshare resorts via TripAdvisor’s rating system, and just tin time. January is wearing thin, and so is our patience with all this polar vortex and arctic blast nonsense. It’s time to plan your midwinter getaway, and the opinions and factual presentations of the well-researched Howell should help.

 

You really should read the article yourself if you’re interested, but we’ll give you the highlights:

 

“Many timeshare owners have found that the resale market can provide lower entry costs, a greater range of products and a more informed choice.”

 

“Of their Top 50 best-selling timeshare resorts from around the world, no less than 40 have been awarded TripAdvisor’s ‘Certificate of Excellence,’ an award reserved for establishments that consistently achieve outstanding reviews and represent the upper echelon of business.”

 

Howell does caution that “timeshare isn’t suitable for everyone,” but reiterating that for couples and families who enjoy high quality accommodation, the freedom of self-catering holidays and the facilities of a well-equipped hotel, timeshare might the best vacation option. And never, ever pay upfront fees. And to consider buying on the resale market from licensed realtors.
