Re: Lowest maintenance= Best value (by Rami L.):
No one can predict the future. But, I rather pay $350 maintenance instead off $800-$2000 every year to get the same vacations.
In the same way that a smart shopper will not buy a house just bacause it has zero down, ignoring the annual payments, a smart shopper will not accept even a FREE timeshare, if it comes with a very high annual costs. This is a liabilty for life.
If one wants to vacation at different places, the "trading power" is the key. Sure, one can buy for less, but long term it will be much more. Most cheap timeshares will not get you where you want to go. When I vacation at the Hilton, where I know that people paid $60k upfront and $1600 every year and I paid $10k and $350, I'm twice as happy.
