Maintenance fees - Are these paid yearly or monthly? Do they include yearly insurance? I'm REALLY new to this. What other costs are likely to be tagged onto the purchase price?

These timeshare resort representatives are nice until they sucker you...then they turn from nice to nasty. We are a victim of purchsing Timeshare in Kissimmee, Florida. Now we just got our first maintenance fee of $577 plus a club fee of $189.00...we can only stay at this Village one week annually, they even lie and choose the week for us....apart from the maintenance fee we are paying almost $350 monthly...if we were only told the truth by the sales representatives we wouldn't be in this trap..it is so horrible the way they lie and vitimize people during the tour..telling all the white collar lies then the resorts cover themselves with the contracts...most places allow 10 days to cancell they won't even tell you...you have to dig through the papers when you get home to find out the truth...after 10 days you are stuck with the ordeal...be very carefull people...it is not the way they tell you during the tours.....
