where did you go to buy your timeshares and what do you advise I do to sell mine? I know Sedona is desirable and a deeded week is rare there so I feel it has some value but how can I know what that value is. ANY advice from an independent pro like you is appreciated.

I am not Tracey nor am I an independent pro but here is some advice. First of all, if you want to buy a timeshare, you can look right here on RedWeek. Other reputable sites for finding timeshares for sale are Craigslist, E-Bay, My Resort Network, and Timeshare Users Group (aka "TUG"). They are also reputable sites for selling (or giving away) timeshares.

If you want to find the resale value of your timeshare, one recommendation is to check E-Bay's completed sales. That will tell you what they sold for as opposed to what many delusional owners are hoping to get. It is possible that the unit you are trying to sell has some resale value but don't expect tens of thousands. Be realistic. And if you are dead serious about getting rid of what you own, you may have to bite the bullet and just offer it up for free.

But whatever you do, never, ever pay anyone a large upfront fee to sell your unit. That is always a scam.
