Re: Getting rid of your timeshare (by Christine H.):

I believe it is possible to 'get rid' of your timeshares through a number of charities, the only thing you have to realize is that it will cost you money! Now when it comes down to it, the cost of 'getting rid' is a one off cost whereas your maintenance fees are forever. Think about it. It is really worth considering this. Whether you believe half of what you have read here it doesn't make any difference, the fact is, you need to make a decision and go ahead with it. Sooner or later you have to have a little faith.

I have stated here in this thread that I have done this by contacting Donate for a Cause and they have transferred my Sheraton Broadway timeshare. I no longer own this timeshare which is exactly what I wanted.....now as to the cost the company actually charged me about $900.00 along with me having to pay my maintenance fees and find a local solicitor (I live in England) which added up to another approx $500. Total about $1400.00. The escrow was handled by Resort Closing Inc in Montana. Believe me I was very nervous paying this fee up front, but had come to the conclusion (after months of trying all the other options, giving it away, selling etc which were unsuccesssful) that this was the only way forward.

Sometimes we have to do something that doesn't feel right at the time, but you either try it or continue to worry about the future. I have no regrets just a little less money!!

Good luck all of you who are in the same position.....
