[Q=cynthiah220] has anyone heard of the book "write a letter to cancel your timeshare?[/Q] I personally have never heard of that book. Frankly, I don't see why one would need a whole book explaining how to write a letter. The suggestion that's bandied about on boards like these is just to write a letter to the resort's Home Owners Association (HOA) explaining your plight and that you need to get rid of your timeshare. The HOA might comply and take it back. It might require you to pay closing costs and perhaps1 or 2 years' maintenance fees. If the HOA says no, then try other methods to give it away. But, whatever you do (and I will repeat this as many times as necessary until all these scam artists are shut down and jailed), never ever pay anyone a large, upfront fee to sell, rent out, market, or "cancel" your timeshare.
