Was about to buy a resale CWS deed at an old Fairfield Sands Ocean Resort... and was told by CW it was not eligible for "certified exit" (among other things... thread below) Are purchased resales generally eligible or not? If so, how do we know resales are eligible before buying? (do we have to...

Hi, I'm looking at different sites with people trying to sell their Viadanta weeks. Has anyone done this? I currently have a TS with Vidanta and have been through the upgrade pitches. I know all the benefits like golf, spa, etc. don't transfer if you but secondary market. But, do the...

We current own a resale Flamingo 11,200 2BR platinum deed and thus far, it has been very good for us. We just got back last month from a 12day stint at HGVC Kingsland and had an absolute blast. Add that to a week last fall in Orlando and we still had a few points leftover from this years...

Looking to buy some HICV points via resale, but have questions about how the deed will transfer into my existing account. I know I'd have to buy at 3 specific resorts, pay maintenance fees, the points won't count towards my "status", and pay the current owner what they're asking + fees. I'm...

Hello I found a HGVC in Hawaii that we are interested in (meeting points, season, MF, price we would be interested in etc we are not targeting JUST buying points at any resort for this specific purchase). We are already owners with HGVC so know it well. My question is specifically with this...

My husband and I recently sat through an HICV timeshare presentation in Gatlinburg. We liked what we heard but we are extremely glad we didn’t buy now that I’ve found this site. However, we are still very interested in buying one resell just don’t know what would be best for us. We are avid...

I would like to sell my timeshare from Channel Island Shores in Oxnard California. It is a 2 BR and I have a week booked from June 14-21 2024. I can see that listings to sell timeshares are basically free. So my question is what should I do? Bank my week in GPX to use later in the year or could...

Hello! My wife and I are looking to buy our first ever timeshare and I have some questions. My understanding is that HICV is a “points only” system, which is not what we are interested in. We are looking for the old school deeded, fixed week, same place and time every year. On redweek, even...

We did a sales presentation a couple of days ago on Abound at the Westin in Maui. Question, seems as though it will start being cheaper then just paying cash after 18 years. Which seems like a really long time horizon. 2ndly, can one buy a resale time share and convert into the Abound...

I recently converted my Diamond resort membership to a HGV Max one. I only have 5,000 points a year, but would like more. If I buy HGV points resale from Ebay or somewhere else, do the points just get added to my current ones? Also, I was told at a recent timeshare review that I need a minimum...

I am looking to purchase my 1st hilton timeshare. I am thinking between 6000 to 8000 points and had a few questions I hope the community can answer for me. - Do resale owners have access to international destinations (this is the main reason for the purchase, to supplement my MVC membership)...

I recently contacted theHGV resale department in hopes they would just take our timeshare back. It's paid off, 5600 points annually, and up to date on its maintenance fee. Has anyone had any experience with them? I wanted to try them first to get out of this timeshare.

HGVC Deed Question My wife and I are HGVC owners (deeded legacy, no trust points) and have 11,520 points (post Diamond adjustment) annually. We have Max, Dex, etc. Here’s my question: now that we have what we need through HGVC to get all of the perks you have to buy directly from HGVC (such...

My parents are too old to visit their Hilton Head Waterside 3 bdrm unit so I'm working to sell it. I have a prospective buyer who says they'll buy it if I can book June 29/24 - July 6/24. If I'm successful at booking this week as the owner (360 days in advance), can this booking be transferred...

Hello, my wife and 2 young boys love to travel, but as they get older (4 and 6), having separate bedrooms, a kitchen, laundry, etc is becoming more of a priority. We were looking at MVC points but have discovered that the point system can be very expensive. Would it be better to purchase a week...

This might be a really silly question but I want to be 100% sure. I am looking to buy a resale deeded week with HVC/Diamond or Marriott. I will be paying in full. I am also in the process of buying a house. So, I don't want anything touching my credit report. Will buying the resale trigger a...

I'm looking to buy resale points at Wyndham Bali Hai, but have noticed that they have a lot of contracts that are EOY. I would prefer an annual, but if I can't find one, is getting an EOY/Odd AND the same points in EOY/Even the same as owning a single annual contract? I'm just trying to find...

Hello, I was wondering what are typical fees for a broker when selling a resale? Is it a percentage of the sale or is there a set fee? Thanks so much!

Hello, Just wondering if anyone has purchased a resale through Preferred Timeshare Resales? And is it better to purchase a resale through a broker who has listed for someone on Redweek, or directly from an owner who is selling on Redweek? Thanks so much!

Hi everyone, I’m excited to join this incredibly knowledgeable community. I am just returning from Florida after attending a Hilton Vacation Club session. We didn’t buy but the program has me interested in resales. A few questions: 1) Did I make the right call? The package was expensive for...

Hi everyone, Hope this is an allowable post. My parents own an HGVC timeshare at the Hilton Club New York. The total annual fees are $1,971.00 USD ($336 of which are club dues). It receives 8000 HGVC points annually (5000 before the conversion). They purchased for around $42k USD, but I...

Looking to buy our first TS and have two different options. Both look like good deals relative to other offers but still leery about pulling the trigger on our first TS because it feels like we are always missing something in this complex world. We might use the Islander once or twice (prob...

Hi all! I'm a newbie and need some advice. We bought Sheraton Flex at Steamboat Springs and are going to be rescinding tomorrow (we bought for $26k: 67,100 options, they gave us 134,2000 options to be used in the first two years, and 6 certs to buy 330,000 Bonvoy points for about $2,200 each)...

We are at the Westin Ocean Villa now. Thinking of buying a week, suppose to sign the contract tomorrow....they told us today that the resale owner can NOT exchange in their network. They can only stay at where their deed is. If they want to change inside Westin network, they have to do it...
