Here is a summary of a 47-page report on the timeshare resale market in Orlando that I recently published. Thought it might be of interest. Ranking is based on the median price ("typical price"), the number of resales annually, and the total dollar volume of resale transactions. Data is drawn from a database of more than 1 million timeshare sales transactions primarily across the U.S. of which over 100,000 are resales.
Orlando Timeshare Resales - Market Observations and Analysis
The Orlando market sees more than 7,400 timeshare resales annually and more than $57 million in resale volume from the Top 25 Orlando timeshare resorts.
Overall, the Orlando market has 90 timeshare resorts and they generate more than 10,500 resale transactions and $59 million in resale volume annually. Thus the Top 25 Orlando resorts comprise nearly 70% of the resale transactions and 98% of the dollar volume in the entire Orlando timeshare resale market.
With the exception of Worldgate Resort, all of the Top 25 Orlando resorts belong to a resort group or brand. Among the brands, Disney dominates the Orlando market, taking the top six spots on the list, eight of the top ten and eight of the Top 25.
Together the Disney resorts represent 3,203 resales (43% of the Top 25 and nearly 30% of the entire Orlando market) and more than $46 million in resale volume (81% of the Top 25 volume and 79% of the entire Orlando market resale volume).
Second is Marriott with five resorts in the Orlando Top 25 totaling 750 resales and $3.8 million in resale volume. Marriott’s Grande Vista resort clearly dominates the Orlando Marriott timeshare resales picture, alone accounting for 56% of all Orlando Marriott resale transactions and 60% of all Orlando Marriott resale volume.
Hilton and Westgate each have three resorts in the Orlando Top 25. Wyndham has two resorts and Diamond, Holiday Inn, and Vacation Village each have one resort on the list.
Other Observations
A number of resort groups have one or more locations in Orlando, but none ranked in the Top 25. This includes Bluegreen Vacation Club, Exploria Resorts, Festiva, Legacy Vacation Club, Vistana, and Vacation Resorts International.
In terms of the sheer number of resale transactions occurring annually, Disney Saratoga Springs at 1,021 and Vacation Village at Parkway at 857 stand above all other resorts in the Orlando market.
When it comes to Typical Price, Disney’s Bay Lake Towers tops the list at $17,600 followed by Disney’s Villas at Grand Floridian at $16,000.
Total resale dollar volume leaders are Disney’s Saratoga Springs at $13.3 million followed by Disney’s Bay Lake Towers at $8.8 million.
