Under the heading of more warnings...
Many may have noted comments from me over the past 8 months attempting to close a purchase of a week at Summer Bay Las Vegas and the delays I experienced in that time. Recently I received confirmation of the week being recorded, the money I sent for maintenance fee's sent to the resort and the unit being transferred into my name.
HOWEVER, I RECEIVED A COPY OF A LETTER TODAY FROM THE CLARK COUNTY RECORDER THAT THE RECORDING FEE'S WERE PAID WITH A CHECK ON A CLOSED ACCOUNT OF TIME NO MORE, INC.
Additionally, I received a call a couple weeks prior from the resort informing me there were late charges and collection fee's totaling $247, plus this years maintenance fee's which had to be paid prior to them completing the transfer. This year's fee's I understand, but to not pay last years fee's on time, with the money I had already sent the closing company for this is not acceptable. I of course have written them for reimbursement of the late fee's and to date have received no response.
The county letter says they have 20 days from February 25 to make good on the check or they will put a lien on the property and against all parties. This amount is $42.55. The county also indicated if check isn't made good they will turn the matter over to the DA for further investigation.
My next fear is the check they paid the resort for maintenance fee's 2008 will bounce and I'll be out that money as well.
Timeshare Freedom is very slow to respond, and when they do always state they are awaiting on something prior to proceding. Time No More, Inc is another of their firms (alias more like it) who requested the recording, although I never understood why.
The amount to the county is not large and I have motivation to pay it and likely will. Of course I'm really paying it twice as part of my fee's to Time Share Freedom were to cover this. This was an inexpensive purchase via Ebay. The week was $200. The fee's were around $800 combined and the maintenance fee's they held onto during this process was $442. Add in the $247 in late charges and now another $43 I'll end up paying again, and this $200 week is more like $1665 now. Again not huge sums, but it adds up.
I write this as a warning to others that you should avoid purchasing a week through Resort Access Network or have any further closings associated with Time Share Freedom &/or Time No More, Inc. as they simply are all much more trouble than the purchase is worth.
I've purchased all my weeks resale and via Ebay from other sellers & closing companies without issue up until now. My advice would be to stay clear of these folks in the future.
