Re: I have a question about timeshare ownership vs vacation property ownership (by Ryan M.):
You raised a good point, Lancec13, however vacation property will typically go up in value- doubly so if its on the water. It all depends what you're willing to do to upkeep the place, but you can stand to make money just like any other real estate transaction.
A resort vacation club membership just costs you money and you get nothing in the end.
