Re: Marriott Newport Coast resales (by Roy N.):

I am a very experienced real estate professsional ( commercial) and I believe that a timeshare is like a gym membership, if you have one you are likely to take more vacations. However, timeshares are not an investment.

You can amortize the cost over 10-15 years ( cost + annual expenses) and likely the cost will be less than renting a hotel and the timeshare units are much upgraded over most hotels.
