Re: Is Getting Rid of Timeshares a Problem? (by Mary M.):

I have been a very happy timeshare owner and never thought I would be anything less. However with the ownership changing it seems the reasons I felt good about my timeshare are no longer. In spending a lot of money to update the units, charging owners a one time extra payment that is more than double the maintenance along with the steadily rising maintenance fee to do this, it appears they have removed two of the four reasons I bought there. The things they are adding are not things I am interested in and for the first time in ten years I am considering buying into another time share and selling mine. So I am left wondering, has anyone looked into protecting owners in these situations. I am paying for changes in my unit I apsolutely don't agree with. If when you bought your timeshare certain amenities were part of the selling points, doesn't it break the contract to do away with those amenities without agreement. At the very least they should offer to buy out those who don't agree when they make those kind of changes.
