Re: Disappointed with redweek results! (by R P.):

Ditto everything Greg said below.

It's not Redweek's fault that your timeshare is not gaining any interest. The market (buyer) sets the price of any given timeshare week as to how much they are willing to pay.

If you bought from the developer you can expect only 1/4 to 1/3 or less on the resale market depending if your timeshare is desirable at all (re: supply and demand, season, popularity of the resort etc.)

You say you are competetive in your pricing. Competetive to what? If you are competitive to other units at your resort in the same season for sale, then more than likely other sellers are asking far too much for their weeks also. People look for bargains and/or a fair price for timeshare resales no matter what you may have paid.

As Greg said below, there are millions of timeshares available in the resale market (actually there's a tremendous glut). If yours is not getting any interest then you may have to consider taking a huge loss over what you paid.

I know of several people who have successfully bought, sold and rented off this website. It all depends on having a desireable product in a desireable location at a desireable time, and most importantly at a competitive price. There are so many bargains available on the resale market for timeshares right now, that you must be willing to accept a price at or below other sellers with a similiar product.Greg
