I found this board at 1030pm on the last day of my rescinding period. After only reading this forum for about 10 minutes I realized I’d been taken. I jumped off the couch, shuffled through my packet found the rescinding instructions rushed out the door to fedex/kinkos and faxed in my copy and pasted letter I found here at 1130 p.m. The next day I sent a certified letter with the same info. This morning I received an email acknowledging the receipt of my letter/fax, and that the process to reverse had begun. I put down $10000 on a $20000 buy in with 200000 bonus points and 80000 points a year and $56 a month in maintenance fees, with “club wyndam” vacation I had second thoughts the moment I walked out. Man o man I just made it.
1) Where do you want your home resort to be?
I have no ideal. I live in northern California.
2) Do you want to visit your home resort at least half the time, or do you want to trade more than half the time?
maybe
3) What are your 5 top trade destinations?
West coast beaches, Hawaii, mexico, south/central America, maybe the Caribbean
4) How many people do you usually travel with?
4-6
5) Can you travel any time, or are you locked into the school schedule?
Any time I get 9 weeks of vacation a year.
6) Can you make firm plans 12 or more mos. in advance?
Sure, but I’d prefer not to.
7) Can you vacation for a full week at a time?
Yes
8) What level of accommodations do you prefer on a scale of 1 to 5 stars?
Higher end 3.5 or better
9) How much can you afford to spend upfront, without financing?
6000
10) How much can you afford to spend every year for a maintenance fee that will come due right after Christmas, and increase each year?
1200-2400 increase year? And I guess it depends on what I’m getting
11) Are you a detail oriented planner?
I can be if needed
12) Do you understand that once you buy a timeshare, it may be very difficult to sell or give away, and you are responsible for all fees, until you do?
Just learned that a week ago
Thanks in advance for any and all the help and advice. I plan to dig deeper into the forums as time allows.
