Instead of kids paying to unload TS, can parents "will" it to Obama? (by Emma C.):
I know of one estate that has been closed and no one accepted or wants the timeshare. The fees and taxes were paid, but no one wants to take ownership and continue paying the fees and taxes. What can be done? It looks like the decendents will be lucky if they can get rid of the timeshare without having to pay someone to take it. Why should the decendents have any responsibility at all for a timeshare they didn't purchase and don't want?
It seems to me like the timeshare system should be forced to take back timeshares they've sold, when the owners die and decendents don't want the timeshare. What do you think? Do you know if there is any legal action being taken to clarify that decendents, who don't want to inherit a timeshare, are not responsible for future fees and taxes of a timeshare? And that current fees and taxes come out of the estate one time and then the timeshare retu;rns to the company that originally sold it.
