Even if the timeshare is not titled in such a way as to avoid probate the heirs are not forced to take it and certainly are not automatically required to pay MFs and special assessments. Most, if not all, states allow an heir to disclaim property typically within six to nine months of the death of the decedent who owned the timeshare. Disclaiming the property simply means filing an instrument (a disclaimer) with the probate court declaring that you don't want to accept the timeshare. The estate is liable for any unpaid and future MFs that accure during the estate's administration but the heirs are not and will not be if they choose to disclaim the property.
This topic was recently discussed in TUG and the one point some brought up was that the estate cannot be closed as long as the TS is part of the estate.

In addition to MFs are there other expenses that would be incurred if the estate is not closed in a timely manner?
