The first and most important thing to remember is to never, ever pay any entity a large, upfront fee to do anything for your timeshare.
You might want to contact the resort and ask if it will take the contract back. If it agrees, you might have to pay some sort of closing costs. The other thing you can try is to advertise in the advertising section here on RedWeek that you want to give this RTU contract away to anyone who wants it.
