Re: Resort Condos Plus - anyone? (by Vivian H.):

Oh my gosh... these are desperate times. Somehow I got the word about 20 years ago to NEVER buy a timeshare for investment value and that they are very difficult to sell -- and this was in the good times. I purchased mine at Maui Ocean Club during good times (1999) for the sole purpose of a forced week of luxury every other year. It was so fabulous that I upgraded the next year to every year. I thoroughly luxuriated for ten years -- life- saving for me. Now, times are tough and I sadly am trying to part with one of my EOY's... I'm thinking I should just hang on and ride this out even with the annual HOA fees. There is just nothing like it. I cannot imagine all the legal hassles folks are going through to unload their timeshares. Even with the free drinks on the plane going home after my purchase, I managed to scrutinize every word in my contract before I gave up my recission rights. What are people doing getting into these contracts in the first place?? And, if you did not do your due diligence with your contract, are you carrying this forward to commitments with shady brokers to sell? Come on folks -- we need to be responsible.
