It is funny how its everyone elses fault but the buyers but then they dump their unit and leave the other owners at the resort paying for their missing maintenance fee's!

I have to agree with Phil .... if you buy a house and a few years later grow tired of the maintenance costs for upkeep or mortgage payments .... one can't just go to the original builder or mortgage broker and say that you want to return it .... it just doesn't work that way in real life ..... a LEGAL contract is signed by all parties, including the timeshare buyer .... that's why there are timeshare closing services making the purchase a legal issue.

I don't know why but many people think that just because a timeshare is a 'luxury item' and 'not really needed for everyday life' that they should have an exit plan or be able to just return it to the resort ..... remember, there's a legal contract involved.
