Re: BUYING DEVELOPER vs RESALE (typical scenario) (by Carrie C.):
Need some help understanding this a bit better as we just got back from Orlando and a large resort timeshare presentation. They offered us a 2bath/2bedroom one for $16,999 and the other for $23,900 the difference being location. Both of these were a week we would not usually travel in because we have children but they said exchanging is no problem. Went into the whole thing about thye now are based on points. When I asked why I was seeing resales on the internet for $7,000 for the same property I was told that these are "deeded" weeks and can't be exchanged and will never be able to switch to the point system.
The 7,000K still seems high and I am seeing some even lower 2,800k but not the week we would need.
If anyone can help me understand this better it would be most appreciated.
