Resale Options

[ClosetMouse]

Any hints on searching for resales other than the timeshare store?

I bought my resale from her while she was still at The Timeshare Store, and she was great. She is also a member of this forum.

Here's info I've posted a couple of times. I've updated one resourse since I posted last.

There are lots of places to find contracts. Besides
The Timeshare store, atimeshares.com and Lee Reid's
site that are the "specialists". I used ERA Stroman
and have now bought 2 expensive timeshare through
them and had two other contacts that didn't go
through. I had a previous BW contract that DVC
bought back and a Paradise Village contract that
fell through because the seller owed more on it than
he agreed to sell it for and couldn't come up with
his part.

At ERA stroman, I worked mainly with Steve Scott
(800) 733-8846 x3149. I also worked earlier with
Jaunita Jones on the PV contract. Steve was willing
in all cases to make the low ball offers and it
seems to be candid with both the seller and buyer
from what I could tell. It is my belief that the
big 3, especially TSS and atimeshares seem to jack
up the price. I'm not saying that's wrong, just
that it's not in the buyers best interest.

I'd also look at Timeshare Users Group (TUG),
http://www.floridavip.com/central.htm (a FSBO site
specializing in FL), Century 21 in Kissimmee as well
as canvas the timeshare world in general. Try also
timeshares.com and http://TIMESHARESDIRECT.com/ and
Sharon Eden at http://www.timesharesUSAresales.com/.
Also consider Shontell Crawford who was at TSS and
now on her own info@TimesharesByResale.com or toll free at 1-800-844-4099. The Timeshare Warehouse has some DVC inventory at http://www.Thetimesharewarehouse.com.

Contact many, tell them what you want and how much
you are willing to pay and see what happens. Good
luck.

I would certainly tried Jaki Apetz at A Timeshare Broker 888-345-2622. She is great to deal with and truly a professional at what she does.

Good luck with your decision.

Dean covered everyone, and mentioned calling them all....I'll just reinforce that and say to call all Brokers.
Each gets listings from various resources so you never know who will have exactly what you want first.

Kind regards,
Shontell

I agree....... calling is the best option...... We used Jaki at www.atimeshare.com and were very please with both her knowledge and her listings......

Good luck and have fun finding that perfect contract!
