My wife has received a call from a company Timeshare Market Pro about selling our timeshare. I told him I had read repeatedly that it was a bad idea to deal with a company who required a fee up front. He is trying to tell me that in the state of Florida it is against the law to take their fee out of the sales proceeds. Has anyone dealt with this company or have any information about it?

You did good about not using upfront companies!

I might be way off here because I have never had dealings in Florida but I have heard this story of against the law to take their commission after sale and that is because they are not a realtor but a listing company.

If they waited for the sale they would probably never get any money,you need to sell to make money and they just list with thousands of other timeshares.

The one word that stood out was TAKE because this is what they probably will do to your money.

Sit back and study these forums and try to learn before listening to some phone jocky who in most cases is just trying to get your money and move on to the next sucker.

Now I'm talking about upfront companies in general and not just this one.

What is funny with these companies is that when pushed far enough they will show you some sales they made. Of coarse who knows if they are real but all these companies must get lucky once in a while and have a buyer find them even if its by just luck.

Like others have stated many of these companies will get phone calls and tell buyer offer to low. They have their money and really don't need to waste more time on your unit when no more money goes into their pockets!
