When does my timeshare actually end- probably never. (by Tracey S.):

Most timeshare including most Wyndham are in perpetuum. Basically you are responsible until you find someone else to take the responsibility or the HOA votes (usually requiring a super majority) to end the timeshare. When you die if none of your heirs want it, technically no one can close out the estate until the property is properly disposed of. Most HOA's when informed of an owners death with no heir accepting ownership and being informed that the estate has no other unclaimed assets and will not be paying any further, will reluctantly accept the timeshare back.

TS Memberships and RTU (right to use) timeshare types usually have an end date specified on the contract.

Many timeshares that were built in the 80's and early 90's include language with an end date (usually 20-30 years from being built) that would allow the HOA a one time provision to end the timeshare with a simple majority (rather than the super majority). Haven't really heard of any that have taken advantage of the "escape plan." The HOA's are usually run by happy owners that want to keep the timeshare up and running as long as possible.
