Unfortunately we know nothing about golf.

Continue to be happy not knowing anything about golf. It is a most frustrating sport... and it will also save you alot of $...

Is it worthwhile getting title insurance?
Please let me know if my questions are inappropriate .I will understand.
Thank you

Important thing is to request and verify the estoppel. Estoppel will essentially show the loan balance, MF balance, unit details / lock off etc.

Title insurance is not worth the money unless the purchase price is substantial (for me $10K; YMMV).

Why pay $250-400 to guarantee that you really own something worth $1,000 +/- ? Especially when the likelihood of a title issue covered by the insurance is minimal.

The far more common problem is that the unit is not as described (season, view, etc.) or that there are unpaid fees or special assessments. Therefore, I agree with rahulgopi that an estoppel is essential for every purchase.

I have a question.
When a timeshare gets sold is there a way to take it off the timeshare marketplace so that one can then know which is truly available?
Thank you

All ads expire in 45 days. TUG has no way of knowing when they sell - it's the owner's responsibility to take them down.

Hello all,
I want to thank all of you who assisted me in making my decision to purchase a timeshare.
I think I purchased at an acceptable cost. Certainly better than I would have paid if I had directly through The Marriott.
It has taken a very long time for the transaction to go through. The transfer has not yet been completed but I believe there should not be any reason now why it would not go through.

One is for 2018 use ( Marriott Grande Vista)and another for 2019 to start( Marriott Aruba surf club).
Questions:
How much in advance must one make a reservation?
Especially for 2018 use if I cannot get the time off or my family cannot get the time off for what is available then can I rent it ? When does one request to rent it?

If we can go but not for the whole week, is it okay to let some other family member stay for the rest of the week?. IE: Can we amongst ourselves spilt the week with other family members or do I have to be the one to check in and check out in person?

Thank you

Welcome to the world of MVC ownership.
The simple answers to your questions are
- always book as early as possible, ideally 12 months in advance on the day at the minute of release.
(not always possible, dependent on your plans... but for high demand dates it is advisable)
- yes it is your week, you can split it with other family members, rent it out... as you wish
