Re: WHERE CAN WE GO TO GET FREE LEGAL ADVICE ON DUMPING TIMESHARES?

[Q=josephinec40] I should clarify--we didn't lose the papers, we just didn't file them. We were supposed to complete the transfer form, have it notarized, then send it back to the resort so they could transfer the deed into our names. We never did that--I actually still have the form they sent us. So I can't sell it or donate it, because I don't have the deed, and the resort refused to take it back. Based on what I've read on this board, it is cheaper for the resort to do a deed-in-lieu instead of a foreclosure, but they wouldn't do it. Is it worth trying again?[/Q] The timeshare would have been in your name at the resort even though you owed a balance to a loan company and then you paid the balance off (that was between the loan company and you, not the resort) .... that doesn't change the name of the owner (you) in the resort's records.
