Some resorts are likely worse than others but I have known people who were calling in every week for months trying to get what they supposedly own.That's why I'd never consider buying a floating week with a floating unit .... when you buy a deeded week, you own that week and that unit .... no one can take it away from you.

What does a $4000 assessment have to do with this topic? If you have to pay a special assessment then a deeded timeshare is still yours to do with as you wish as long as it's in your name (you can use it, sell it, rent it, let a friend or relative use it etc).
