Buy Timeshare Safely

We have the buyers information you need. When buying it's important to keep in mind several important factors that will most definitely make or break the timeshare experience. We have a list of what we believe to be the most important factors to consider when purchasing a timeshare.

1. Don't Pay Too Much. Remember that the seller is trying to maximize their profit just as you the buyer, are trying to minimize your purchase price. Make sure you've done your homework. Be sure you know the area, what attractions are nearby and at what price range you are looking.
2. Make sure you know what you want. Time share comes in many shapes and sizes. Make sure you have a solid picture of what you need. Bedrooms, bathrooms, location, amenities and season all play such an important part in the buyers role.
3. When will you be vacationing? Those buying a resale must consider when they are available to vacation. Should you purchase a floating week or a fixed week. If you get the same week every year then the choice is obvious.
4. How much space do you need? Purchasing extra room can sometimes be beneficial. Extra rooms or lockout units allow you to vacation with another family or rent the extra side to offset some of the maintenance expenses.
5. How much are the maintenance costs. Your maintenance fees are paid annually unless you own a biannual unit in which case you pay every other year. Make sure you know exactly what these fees are and when you are supposed to pay them before you buy.
6. How long will you want to keep this unit? You may buy deeded or leased time share on the resale market. Make sure you have considered the options. If you have nobody to leave or "will" your time share too it might be best to purchase a leased block of time instead of a deeded week.
7. Will you be renting the time share? Some owners try to rent their time share during the weeks they are unable to use it. If this is your plan, buy time share where there are plenty of activities that bring tourists to the area.
8. Which Exchange Company will you be using? Sometimes a week of timeshare goes unused. If you have an exchange company you may save or bank that week and use it at a better time.
9. Buy in a great location. Why are you buying at this location. Make sure you're either fans of the area, local attractions, or sports offered at your resort. For example, someone looking to buy a resale in Orlando is probably a Disney fan and with so much to see there you could never take it all in. Don't buy a winter week in Colorado unless you're into snow.
10. Time share is not Real Estate. Although it is similar, time share is not considered "typical real estate". You can't hang a for sale sign in front of it, or bring potential buyers on a walk through. Do not expect a large return on your investment when it's time to sell time share. The investment reward comes from the many fine years of vacationing and memories you have because of the time share you bought.
