Re: Consequences of Defaulting on Maintenance fees (by Don P.):
First contact your home resort and ask to talk to someone that handles your situation. Explain to them that you can no longer afford the fees and that you are going to get rid of your timeshare with or without their assistance. Ask them to take the timeshare back through a " deed back ". Explain to them that it is in their interest to take it back rather than spend thousands in legal fees and lost maintenance fees and possibly years of delays. I gave two timeshares back through deed backs and it is quick an inexpensive as long as you are up to date on your maintenance fees. Good luck and let us know if it works for you.
