Re: Has anyone purchased from Vallart Gardens? (by Randall B.):
the problem with this approach is that VG continually misrepresents the terms of the ownership agreement. They indicate that the sale of the purchaser's existing timeshare will be little more than a formality - even that the 'company they work with' has already agreed to purchase it and/or has a buyer for it. These are significant components of the sale, and nearly every person on this forum who has experience with this arrangement has indicated that there was no sale - in fact, there generally was no other party other than a bogus company.
Are you really comfortable doing business with them based on this standard operating procedure? I'm not - and it is why we got out of our contract within the 5-day window. Even then, it took MONTHS for VG to give up their claim to our down payment and for our credit card company to rule in our favor. Keep in mind that we followed the requirements of the contract TO THE LETTER - we appeared in person, we wrote out and had them sign a cancellation agreement, we went to Profeco and had them timestamp that notification and then mailed it with a return receipt. And still VG argued that we hadn't cancelled appropriately. It was just this week that, after providing the required evidence to our credit card company twice that VG did not contest it. This was a charge that went back to March 2015.
Caveat Emptor!
