My timeshare is paid in full, but I just don't want it anymore (by Jill K.):
I have a timeshare at Grand Seas in Daytona Beach, currently owned by Exploria Resorts. I have had it for sale for 10 years for low prices, no offers. It has been under construction because of hurricane damage since October 2017, so there is little possibility that it will sell while closed. I contacted Exploria, they have an "Inventory Surrender Program" that will charge $2200 to take back my timeshare. They will also wait until they have need for it - I requested a call last summer - nothing yet. You mention $950 as the highest deedback program you have heard of - any ideas for me?

Cost me $750 to give it back.Westgate currently charges $950.00 for deedbacks under what they now call their "Legacy" program, for ownerships that are paid in full (no unpaid loan balance, maintenance fees completely paid up to date). That's the most expensive deedback fee in the timeshare industry, as far as I know (by comparison, Wyndham charges nothing at all for their "Ovation" deedback program), but $950.00 is still worth every penny to get out of Wastegate easily and permanently, since Westgate timeshares are essentially completely worthless in the resale market.
