Keep hesitating. This is not legitimate. It is a scam, plain and simple. The reason why they ask for a check is so that you can not dispute it with your credit card company once you find out that this is a scam.

I will repeat: Never.....ever.....ever pay a large upfront fee to any entity to sell, rent out, or market your timeshare. It does not matter what they euphemistically label this fee whether is is a lien search fee, title search fee, one-time marketing fee, closing costs, etc.

There is absolutely no need for you, as the seller, to put up any money in such a transaction.

By the way, timeshares ARE real estate property.

Excellent advice .... yes, timeshares ARE real estate .... that's why all deeds in the name of the owner are recorded in the courthouse in the county the resort is in.
