My first Forum post !! YAY ME !! Hope I got it into the right category.
1st... I love TUG ! Sold my Timeshare through TUG, and respect the knowledge it provides.
POINT... My 80+ year old Mom tried to sell her timeshare years ago, and got swindled (which is why I joined TUG for my sale). She was contacted by a Rep from "EZ Exitnow", home office out of Houston, TX, and scheduled a visit without my knowledge.
The Rep traveled from TX to a moderate size town in KY, and met with her. I found that a little odd since it's off the beaten path.
"Mike" (EZ Exitnow consultant) offered to take the timeshare off her hands - no up-front fees... just a copy of her last paid Maint. Statement, a "Limited Power of Attorney", and a copy of her Deed.
MY red flags are flying, but I know that some Limited POA's are okay, and no up-front money is good. Still... I worry.
EZ Exitnow only seems to have a history back to mid- or late- last year, and no outstanding BBB complaints.
I have NOT seen any papers on their offer/company (aside from what little is found through an on-line search).
I'm 3000 miles away, and was planning to list her TS on TUG but have been putting it off (bad son).
All I know is the guy gave his name as Mike Garcia, comes out of California, but the company is out of Houston, TX.
Anyone have any background on this company (good or bad), or advice on any Red Flags I might be missing here ??
