Timeshare Resales

[FayeW]

Where can I find the cheapest timeshare resales to trade in to the Orlando area. My wish list would be Marriott or Fairfield so I could trade into Horizons, Grand Vista or Bonnet Creek.

Not necessarily looking for a place I would actually go to myself, but a good trader with reasonable maintenance fees.

Thanks!

Have you been over to http://www.tug2.net/

It is apparently a good place to go to learn about timeshares and get advice from others.

I agree, spend a lot of time on TUG before making any purchases. Timeshares can be hard to sell, so it is wise to spend the time researching and making sure the one you buy is just right for your needs.

One more thing I should have added --

Marriott's trade through Interval International, and as far as I know, Fairfields trade through RCI. So, make sure you pick the timeshare that trades with the company you want to use to exchange. I have heard of many buying an RCI affiliate and then finding out they can never trade for Marriotts. You could also buy a non-Orlando Marriott and trade into Orlando Marriotts and get a slight preference from Marriott for the exchange.
