Steve, I would say to look at resale ads on sites and send e-mails. When you can find the listings with the real e-mail address then group them together and state on the mail what your doing.

It easier to find seller and ask for this deal because like I stated it is a no lose for the owner.

Plus many of these owners have tried for years to sell and would jump at this offer.

If you are honest and tell these owners what your doing and show them all the e-mails that your sending this request to and want to maybe buy the unit within two weeks of after vacation some will rush back and you might even get a better price.

I would rather deal with five owners than just one on this and by being upfront on your e-mail they will understand there are five other owners at your resort getting your offer.

If your talking about a top resort then maybe rent with half the rental going on your buying.

When we sold our three bedroom at Los Tules in PV,MEX years ago I told the people to go enjoy the unit and resort and go on the tour and get free dinner on them and see what they have.

The fourth day there and going on the tour and hearing the price they rushed back to me to buy.

I rented the unit to them for $1200 and deal was to sell for $4500 so they had their great vacation and paid another $3300 to me plus the fee's they paid to do transfer and they made out.

If they had bought my unit from the resort they would have paid $9500 plus closing fee's and lost their $1200 for renting my place. This worked out for both of us! My friends did this same thing couple years ago and sold their unit the first year.

GOOD LUCK, PHIL
