Four Great Exit Strategies

Learn about the top Four Great Exit Strategies for timeshare ownership and make an informed decision. Get expert advice and guidance today.

Rent it

This can be a good option to help recover maintenance fees and investment costs while retaining ownership. While this technically is not an actual exit option, because you are still retaining ownership. It is a good option for those who would like to hold onto their timeshare long term, but would like the flexibility of being able to rent it on the years they are not using it. This could also be a good option for those who opt for timeshare exit strategies which have a longer process, such as the resale or trade-in options.

Pros:
  • Relatively easy to do (simply a listing)
  • Fairly inexpensive (with us it is just $295 for a lifetime ad)
  • Can recuperate your maintenance fees and perhaps a little more.
Cons:
  • You retain ownership (unless you like your timeshare, then this is actually a good thing!)
  • Rentals are never guaranteed.
  • Not Passive: While relatively easy to rent, you will need to still be involved in the rental process to make sure the renter can actually go on vacation.
Resell timeshare

Resale it

Listing your timeshare for resale is a good option, especially if you own a more popular property with a decent resale value. Reselling your timeshare gives you the opportunity to exit it and make a little cash back. It is important to keep in mind, however, that timeshares rarely maintain their value on the secondary market and sometimes the resale process can take months or even years.

Pros:
  • Relatively easy to do (simply a listing)
  • Fairly inexpensive (with us it is just $395 for a lifetime ad)
  • And we include your closing cost in that, when it sells!
  • Has the potential to make a little bit of cash back from the resale.
  • Once you have a buyer and the transfer of ownership is complete, you have exited your timeshare and are no longer obligated to pay the maintenance fees.
Cons:
  • You retain ownership of the timeshare UNTIL IT SELLS (meaning you are still obligated to pay the maintenance fees, while you are waiting for a buyer).
  • Reselling a timeshare could take months or even years or not happen at all.
  • Resales are never guaranteed.
  • You rarely resell a timeshare for what you paid for it.
trade in timeshare

Trade-In

Trading-in a timeshare is a very similar transaction to that of trading a used car for a new car. With a trade-in option, you would be “trading-in” the old timeshare for a new timeshare which you like more. The first step to doing a trade-in is to get an appraisal, which our agents can do for you for no additional cost. The second step is to analyze how you are vacationing now and determine which timeshare might be a better fit for you. Once that is determined, our agents can arrange for you to travel to stay on the property and attend a sales presentation with the new developer. The new developer would then make you an offer to trade-in the old timeshare by giving a discount off of the new timeshare. This is generally the only timeshare exit strategy which allows you to receive consideration close to what it is actually selling for in the primary market (what you paid for the timeshare).

Pros:
  • A True Exit Option: You are able exit the old timeshare (so you are no longer obligated to pay the maintenance fees).
  • You are generally offered an amount that is comparable to what your timeshare is selling for in the primary market (what your timeshare company is selling them for now in their sales rooms).
  • The second developer usually hires a third party trade-in or transfer company, so that you are not directly responsible for exiting the old timeshare (in other words, a pro handles the paperwork for you).
  • Is a way to apply a previous timeshare purchase towards a new timeshare
Cons:
  • Expense: You are required to purchase a new timeshare! (but hopefully you like…no love! the second one!)
  • This process can take time. This process can take anywhere from 6 months to 2 years, depending on how quickly you can visit the new timeshare company.
  • You will be obligated to pay the maintenance fees for the old timeshare until it is officially transferred out of your name. There is a possibility that there might be a year where you pay the maintenance fees for both the old and new timeshares at the same time (however, this can be negotiated at point of sale with the new developer).

TSR charges a $495 advisory fee for trade-in services. This includes the property appraisal (done ahead of time for free), the  interview to help you discover which new timeshare might be a better fit for you, arrangement for discounted travel so you can see the new timeshare in person, coordination with the new timeshare company to arrange a presentation which includes negotiation to trade-in the old timeshare.  At the end of the day, the negotiations to trade-in the old timeshare for the new one will be up to you and the new timeshare company, but we can help and advise you every step along the way.

exit timeshare

Straight Exit

This is usually the quickest and the most straightforward exit strategy. In this option, for qualifying resorts, our team of advisors will guide you in exiting your timeshare membership completely. This service usually takes anywhere from 3 to 6 months (on average), but is generally the fastest way to exit a timeshare. We will prepare all the documentation and assist with coordination with your timeshare company to ensure that you are able to exit the timeshare and the timeshare obligations.

Pros:
  • You are able to exit the timeshare (and remove the obligation to pay ongoing maintenance fees).
  • Fastest: this is usually the fastest and easiest way to exit a timeshare (takes an average of 3 to 6 months).
  • Cheapest: Unless you have a highly popular timeshare (there are only a few dozen in the world), this is likely the cheapest way to exit a timeshare when you consider the accumulated cost of years of maintenance fees or special assessments.
  • One and Done: you are not obligated to buy another timeshare, you don’t have to wait for it to rent or to resell.
Cons:
  • You don’t receive any return on your timeshare. You are actually paying a small fee to exit it.
  • TSR is only able to help with the exits from a select number of timeshares (please speak to one of our agents for a list of properties we can exit you from). However, if you own a timeshare we are not working with, we can often refer you to specialists or lawyers who can help you.
  • You will be obligated to pay the maintenance fees for the old timeshare until it is officially transferred out of your name. There is a possibility that there might be a year where you pay the maintenance fees for both the old and new timeshares at the same time (however, this can be negotiated at point of sale with the new developer).
  • Still not guaranteed. In general, we won’t accept clients who own timeshares that we don’t have experience exiting you from, however, sometimes we run into troubles, because, frankly, timeshare exits can be tough, depending on who the timeshare company is. We can guarantee, however, that we will do everything we can to walk alongside you until the job is done. We also promise to be upfront about the likelihood of being able to exit you from your timeshare and your timeshare obligations.

TSR charges $2995 for exit consulting  services, which is usually what you pay in 2 to 3 years of maintenance fees anyway.  If you opt for this option, we can throw in some other good stuff to help you recover some of the original cost of purchasing the timeshare. Please contact one of our agents today to find out what those other benefits are and to discuss the likelihood of being able to successfully exit you.  Our consultations are 100% free.
