unfortunately as mentioned above you dont have any good options to end your ownership when you still owe on and are not willing to or able to satisfy the loan other than default.

What are consequences of the default? I talked to tafer representative from villa del palmar and the only way to get out is to pay off the balance, need to stay for 1 year and find someone to transfer it. Also, i stop paying it will go to collection as they noted they company here in las vegas and would handle the collection. I asked them if they pull my credit at the time of registration, they said no and the loan is mexican based.

Welcome to TUG
Tafer rep works for owner - not you

Please read the many TUG Mexican Forum post on this topic.
1) Your "ownership" is a RTU ( right to use / ie not deeded}
2) Your "ownership" is in a foreign country
3) Your loan is Mexican based.

The above are meaningful on how a default or collection process would impact you.

Please read TUG Mexican Forum

( ie ) a loan sourced in Mexico from a Mexican lender is not the same as if the loan was sourced from the USA.

The Tafer representative is ALWAYS going to say you have to pay.

Collections can be attempted on anything based on intimadation & misrepresentation

- however the details of your transaction / loan - may mean that you can avoid a credit score hit (or not.) - if you choose to stop payment & contact.

@easyrider may be able to better explain.

That is true. Resortcom does the collections for Taffer. They are limited to phone communicating and trying to offer you a Golden Parachute deal by making the MF less by taking points off the membership. If a person goes this route they will own a lesser membership that now originates in the USA, that Resortcom can take to American Courts.

If you let it go it's a real headache for them to go to court for a judgement.

Okay so i can ultimately just dont make any payments the it would not affect my credit and they will just default the loan as long as i dont go through the golden parachute deal?

Can't help wondering how many of these Mexican timeshare purchases involved tequila!
