Grand Chateau just sold for a lot on ebay. I asked if it was a lockoff, it was just a 2 bedroom.

seans0302 used to be a bigtime reseller on ebay. Haven't seen much lately of him on ebay.

I am sure he gets inventory from postcard companies and exit companies. I don't know how involved he is in the sleazy end, but he is a good seller. I bought my Hono Koa through him (one or two of them).

I don't know if all 2BR units lock off at Grand Chateau, but it doesn't matter as there are 2BR LO units there. So if you own a 2BR, you can lock off based on availability.

Which I thought of buying for that reason ($90 fee, of course), but the bid went too high for me. I was watching it. I like the seller, even if he can be quite rude at times.

Just to be clear, it does not matter what is on the deed. You always have to pay $90 to lock off into 2 sides, unless the week is enrolled.

$3,651 is likely a good buy for someone. Keep in mind that some Timeshare resales are hopping with activity these days due to the inflated prices of year 'round homes, and much higher Hotel room rates.

Yes, someone who just got back home after a high-pressure sales' pitch. That could be the case.

I have been looking at Grand Chateau to potentially get into a unit that trades in Interval. Anyhow, the supply of them seems a bit thin, which could have created the bubble for someone who doesn't want to shop around or wait.

I was bidding on this auction too. I think part of the reason it went that high was the seller was paying the closing and transfer costs. So the all in cost was just the winning bid. With some sales the closing and transfer are several hundred bucks. ~$3000 seems to be around the going rate for an annual GC 2BR lately.

What would be a reasonable price for that type of unit?

About $3,651 all in.

‍so it IS a good deal?

That’s all a matter of individual perspective. To me, it seems fair.

If I had wanted a Marriott trader, this would have been an excellent buy.

The 2022 maintenance fees were also paid By the seller.

But it didn't come with 2022 usage. First usage was 2023.

I was watching this auction as I'm considering to add Grand Chateau to my portfolio and sell Willow Ridge. I think this price is insane as my budget was $2000-2500 max.

Sadly, I think the market is leaving us el cheapos behind. My budget for an SVV 2BR mandatory resale week is about $1000, but those prices are a thing of the past. At least for now.

Is the same true of 3BRs at Grand Chateau?

 

[dioxide45]

Yes, the same is true. Everyone who owns a 3BR can lock it off based on availability. Someone may be able to speak to whether all 3BR units are lock off capable.

I’m glad I got mine when I did

Prices are definitely up. I sold one for close to $4000

But Vistana has ruined my chances at those because they are taking back deeds. The exit/postcard companies have figured that out and have started handing them over to Vistana instead of listing them on ebay. Such a ridiculous waste of money for people to hire these exit companies. All the owner has to do is make a phone call.

Redweek has lots for sale. I mean, why bid on ebay if you can get it on Redweek.

Maybe we need to send out our own postcards
