Re: I am a former TIMESHARE EMPLOYEE IN MEXICO (by Wayne C.):

I have worked at timeshares in Mexico as a closer and still believe that they are great deals - as long as you know exactly what you are buying. Most do not.

When you purchase in Mexico, you have no protection as you don't really own anything, but air. You cannot purchase a timeshare with a deed. You do not own a specific week or unit - just air.

Unfortunately, as we all know, many sales people lie and the resort backs it up. That's why it is so important to review the paperwork ASAP.

Mexico has great deals and beautiful resorts. I would never buy at a resort in Mexico, only on the resale market outside of Mexico. Why? There are plenty or properties that you can buy for under $1,000 on the resale market and plenty of properties to trade into Mexico through the exchange company.

Much better deal than the edward66 is telling you.
