Re: Diamond Resorts enormously increases the cost of Maintenance/Reserves on their resorts. (by Don P.):
You could contact your home resort and ask them to take it back through a " deed back ". If they agree you have to be current with your maintenance fees and assessments. They may ask you to pay the next years fees. Make sure you talk to the person that handles these matters. I got rid of two timeshares in 2011 this way. It's great not to have to pay the ever increasing fees and assessments. Good luck.
