I'm not familiar with that resort but in most cases you can put it on Ebay for $1 to get rid of them.

You may want to find out if the ownership is deeded, or if it's a 'Right-To-Use'. For the former, they should list it and try to give it away. If it's a RTU, just stop paying and it'll go back to the resort.

Found my answer our friends need to file bankruptcy After they stop paying and the resort starts foreclosure proceeds Then bankruptcy will wipe all debt with the resort...any feedback welcomed...

Assuming there is no mortgage, there is no reason to file bankruptcy over this. As noted above, either stop paying the maintenance fees or sell the timeshare.

Might this topic might get more input/replies in the Buy/Sell/Trade forum?
