You should start by ready the "Sticky" note at the top of the forum entitled:
"Sticky - How to Sell Your Timeshare"

A Summary:
First, you need a Contract for Sale. It must have essential terms
... like sales price, escrow, who pays which fees and year of first use...
Your transfer agent needs a copy of the contract and your deed.
HGVC has a right of first refusal (ROFR)-- unless you own at Flamingo.
Your transfer agent will need a Waiver from HGVC. HGVC has forms for this.
Your buyer may ask for an Estoppel. HGVC can provide this... for a fee.
Your transfer agent takes the Deed, records it, and initiates HGVC transfer.

If you are working with a reputable timeshare title company - they will walk you through the whole process - and handle all the steps listed above for you. Personally, I would not consider a DIY transfer - it's worth the small fee to have it done right.

Have you picked out a title transfer company - the fees can vary greatly.

LT Transfers is highly recommended. I used them for buys at a non-HGVC and a HGVC-affiliate.
Their prices are low, they were quick (~6 weeks or so), and even courteous when I sent an unsigned check.

I just used LT Transfers for a unit I received from another TUG member. It was an easy and seamless transaction. It took about 6 weeks. I would highly recommend them.
