To whom did you speak when you asked for "them to take it back"? You have to contact someone at the Homeowners' Association rather than a front desk clerk. Some other suggestions depend on what the chain is. Diamond, Wyndham, and Westgate are taking back a select, limited number of units in their respective deed back programs.

Also, if you contact the HOA, tell them that you are not going to pay any more in maintenance fees so it would be in the resort's best interests for it to take the unit back rather than go through the costs an rigors of foreclosure. Don P and KC also gave you some good advice above. The other thing I will add is to not go seeking the "help" of these law firms, charities, or other companies with words like cancel, exit, relief, or release, etc. in their name. These are usually scams or will charge you thousands of dollars to do what you can do yourself.
