It DOES sell with Redweek's suggestions! (by Kathy K.):
I joined Redweeka little over a year ago as we started having more and more difficulty getting good exchanges with Interval International. I learned a lot in about 6-8 visits to this website and decided selling our timeshare would be our best option. I posed questions in the forums, read a lot of the selling info and started the process of selling our Marriott Mountain Valley In Breckerridge, Colorado. I went to TUG and put in an ad. I contacted Marriott about their right of refusal and ended up signing a contract allowing them to re-sell it for us in January, 2008. They listed it in February 2008 and in early September we got a call from Marriott that we had a buyer. A couple weeks later we received documents for review from the title company. About 1 month after that we got the closing documents which we turned around in record time. Yesterday we got the money wired to our checking account and today it cleared after pending due to the amount of the check. We paid about $13,000 in 1996 for it and dues were $367 annually at that time. Marriott sold it for $14,900 and we got 60%--$8940. We NEVER had to pay Marriott one single penny! I am soooooo glad we joined Redweek and took their advice!!!!! We never tried listing it with a scam re-sale company b/c of Redweek. We never tried ebay after reading Redweek! Their advice and suggestions were absolutely perfect and we are soooooo grateful we tried Redweek! Here is the best part; Our dues for 2008 were $799 which is what got us moving toward re-sale! The HOA decided we needed a special assessment for 2009 and informed us of that in June, with the amount to be decided last week. Well the dues only went up about $20 to $819 ---for a lousy studio unit--but the assessment this year was $150 on top of that. Almost a $1000 for 1 week maintenence for the equivalent of a hotel room. We are ecstatic! And truly--I am a real person, not someone trying to do a hard sell for Redweek! Feel free to contact me!
