Is there any value in selling this Wyndham Contract?

Hi am fairly new on here. I purchased 2 Wyndham contracts a couple years ago from a third party and now would like to sell them. I am mostly interested in getting rid of maintenance costs. Could anyone advise as to whether these have any real value? I joined the Market place and will post there, but thought I should check here and see if I could get some information. In the alternative is there someone I should contact directly that buys Wyndham on here?

Thanks for any guidance anyone can share on here.
Regards,
Ron

Is Contract 1 associated with a resort or is it Club Wyndham Access. I have to assume with your high maintenance fees that it is not Club Wyndham Access. The high MF works against you. Contract 2 is a Fixed Week Conversion, and that works slightly against you. Need more information about Contract 1 to determine whether it is UDI or Fixed Week Conversion.

Honestly, they would probably sell better next Summer when people are coming fresh off sales presentations and looking for a way in without paying retail prices. However, again in honesty, you are probably better off paying the closing and transfer fees now and taking what you can get to offset that than you are paying the $1,800 MF it will cost you to wait until Summer. Unless, of course, you want to use your points one last time.

As a last resort Wyndham now has ovations, which allows you to return it to Wyndham at no cost to you. You just call to see if yours qualify.

If they will accept one or both contracts through Ovation, that will be the best avenue imo.

His bogie is $299.00 plus transfer fee, approximately $500 or so per contract. That's you break even point.

Yeah, but smallish contracts, obviously high MF.......

I cant tell the size from the op's mod edited post. I appreciate the non commercial nature of tug, but...

a 300k contract with mf of even $10/1000 wouldnt move the needle on my average mf, Id be happy to look and said as much in my email to the op.

IIRC, somewhere around 189K at 1200.

Question for the moderator. This seems like a pretty regular thing, people want feedback as to what their TS is worth before placing an ad.

If the OP was a Tug Member would the post have been left alone?
If the answer is yes, then fine, perhaps that would be helpful in these kind of case let them know that if they join they can get feedback. If no then there should be a forum where members(new ones) can post these kind of questions. So that they can set a realistic price before actually placing an ad. As I understand it ads are free for members anyway.

No, it doesn't make any difference - the problem is that if someone posts a good deal in the discussion forums, then it will generate offers in the discussion forums - whether that was their intention or not.

Although I don't believe this was the OP's intention, there are many people who would see this as a "loop hole," for getting around the "no-advertising" in the forums rule. Then we'd end up with people doing business in the forums, and then it snow balls, so we are pretty strict about it.

I actually saw the post as soon as it was posted, and I left it up a bit so they could get some feedback before I deleted it.

Yes ... I saw the full post.

One low point contract was a converted fixed week .. meaning the MF to point ratio was CRAP ... well over $10 per 1000 pts.

The other contract was a slightly large point value with a better ratio of MFs to point.

The OP can list what they own in their profile and it will show up under their name like the rest of ours.
