I have searched for someone to take over my 2 timeshares, one fully paid for and the other with a balance. I found a business called ALL REAL ESTATE OWNERSHIP INC, the owner Stuart Vener says he can take these from me through a deed transfer and he would be responsible for anything owed from date of transfer. And he would only charge me 1600.00 to do this, I wonder if anyone has heard of this company and if it is real or another scam, and is this transfer legal so hey cant come back on me for anything after transfer?

It looks like Stuart Vener also owned Timeshare Assistance, Inc. which has some complaints online. All Real Estate Ownership, Inc. isn't a registered corporation it just shows up on the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services as a DBA/other name.

It looks like Stuart Vener does have an inactive real estate Broker's license in Nevada.

His website states the following: "Stuart Vener is one of America's most knowledgeable real estate investors/consultants. He provides expert information as a guest on radio shows throughout the Country, and regularly appears on Fox News.

Former President and CEO of the Richmond Corporation and Former Director and CFO of Transcontinental Development Corp., Mr. Vener is a paid consultant available to many Fortune 500 Companies."

My question would be why is such a self-proclaimed uber successful businessman making cold calls to transfer timeshare deeds?

Anyone charging you upfront fees like that should generally be avoided. Especially if there are complaints online already from other people who paid them. The decision is yours, but if someone asks me for $1,600.00 I want their record to be exemplary.
