That's why I sold my Knysna Chalet unit before any move by First Resorts to take over.
Funds were received a couple weeks ago.

Yes I did. "Sold" my Strand Pavilion week to Ron Rutter of Fairfields. That was in June 2011. Unfortunately, after 18 months and over 40 e-mails, he still did not pay me. So beware!

Loes,
Did you ever get confirmation from the resort that your week is no longer in your name? (If so--while you didn't get paid--you at least have disposed of it.)

I went through a SA broker to dispose of my Durban Sands and contacted the resort directly after it was 'closed' to make sure the transfer was complete.

Yes, Rutter is the legal owner now. Any advice about how to get paid after 18 months waiting? You know, we agreed about a price, I have signed a sales contract with the price in it, so I cannot stand him just walking away with my timeshare without paying.

If you have a signed sales agreement, mabe a letter to him from an attorney would jog his memory.

How did you get your funds?

I sold my Seapointer back about 2 yrs. ago but still havent gotten funds and don't know how to ask for them.

IMO, just get confirmation it is truly out of your name and let it go. It is simply not worth the trouble (much less the hassle of bringing in a lawyer) for something you want gone and something you probably only 'sold' for a few hundred at most.

Some 'brokers' on this forum have a history.

I won't do that. For me 5000ZAR is just too much money to let it go. I e-mailed Strand Pavilion, the resort at which I owned a week and the manager promised me to help me. He already phoned Fairfields. So thumbs up for Strand Pavilion! Hope I report about payment soon!

Well, I can see why you won't just let it go--you certainly have a bit more than a 'few hundred' at stake.
