Can someone tell me why some timeshares hold their value (relatively speaking) or at least have some value while others are worthless as soon as you drive it off the lot?
Thanks!
Thanks!
It can be resort specific. Our Winners Circle unit has maintained it's value well, since we bought it for $900 in 1999. Factors that are significant.Amenities, location, weather and cost are factors that keep some resale values higher than others. For the most part, single location resorts are not as flexible to use as a multi-destination resort system giving single location resorts less resale value, imo.
None of the developer bought timeshares hold the new value and most have very little resale value.

Timeshare System Points Comparison Chart

We did this comparison a few years back, and it may be a bit outdated, however the last line of the comparison is resale value. That still holds true, so take a look there.
This is the first time I viewed this. I feel kind of good for having WM and didn't realize the huge difference in mf of WM and some of he others. Hard to follow that Hilton mf's are less than WM's for a two bed unit.

Depends on what you mean by "hold their value." If you paid very little, there's not much to lose. That's one of the nice things about buying many timeshares resale.Can someone tell me why some timeshares hold their value (relatively speaking) or at least have some value while others are worthless as soon as you drive it off the lot?
Hilton is higher than WM. 1200 vs 1150. Now these are averages in term of required points and MFs for Hilton. WM is just an average points and overage MF although they do vary by the amont of points owned.
But while generally these is still a valid comparison, Prices have changes and so have points (like Hilton). It was a joint effort to get this comparison done, it would have to be again to update it.
