Re: I'm interested in buying Hilton or Hyatt VC - Why have so many hit the resale market? (by Lisa M.):
I have not read each and every topic on this forum by far; however, the few hours that I have spent reading have had a similar feel. Most are upset/disenchanted with the timeshare they own. They are trying to get out of it, it was a scam, it was a bad experience on a trip, etc.
I have a financial background. I understand the numbers/contracts as well as anyone probably. Even after hearing others woes, this is the question I can't get past.....
If a person, like me, buys a resale timeshare for a fraction of the original cost, understands the maintenance fees and their propensity to increase, is there a way to lose? It appears that we can buy a high end timeshare for 4-6K for a 3 bedroom, ton of points. I can't imagine this could be a failure. Could it?
Overall, would someone comment on this basic question.
