Re: Getting rid of your timeshare (by Dr. K.):

jayjay, traudem, lucyd21,

I thank you for exemplifying childish discussions. When you began by challenging specifics of legality and were presented with specific answers and references from the IRS and the law, you resorted to name calling and wild statements with no merit or validation. If you have to act like children, find a different website.

Since you feel it's important to continue being judgmental in ignorance I suggest a simple test. Go to our website and review everything there. Challenge specific legal issues with other legal references. Check out the two companies we list as closing escrow companies. Challenge their legality, process, and proper business ethics. As we've said, we are only the final recipient, not the processor. Contact them to see why they do timeshare transfers for owners to us.

donp196,

I applaud your original purpose and post. It is a good way to divest oneself of a timeshare. One of the reasons we do what we do is because too many resorts are NOT concerned about their owners and leave them out to hang.

As for our responsibility to other owners in the HOA or the resort directly, we feel no responsibility to anyone on this basis after the original owner has usually tried and failed to find support or help from the other "responsible" owners. Individual's (that includes businesses, corporations, NPOs, etc) have rights and one of those rights is to fail financially and suffer the legal consequences. Just because someone screams that it's illegal, unethical, fraudulent, or crooked, the law says differently. Until the law changes, individual will continue to have those rights guaranteed by the law. The reverse of this is to return to debtor's prisons or arrange for the government to guarantee to bail out any final owner of a timeshare when everyone else bail.
