We like your neighbor successfully got rid of our timeshare by using the services of Preferred Transfers. Yes, it cost us $3,495 but they did all that they said they would do and we no longer have annual maintenance fees; the only thing is that we could not write it off as a tax write off (as they said we would be able to do), since we purchased the timeshare for pleasure rather than as a rental property

Have you checked with the resort to see if the ownership has changed? With some of the postcard companies (which is what you dealt with), ownership doesn't change and supposedly previous owners are still responsible for yearly maintenance fees and any other fees related to ownership.
