Has anyone purchased a resale from the TUG marketplace? Is the buying process straightforward? How do you transfer ownership?

Regarding WorldMark, are there different types of ownerships available, such as points that aren't tied to a specific property and those that are linked to a property and designated weeks? I want to ensure that I'm acquiring the flexibility to travel to any location where there is a property and utilize my points. I understand that bookings can only be made within 13 months in advance, and I want to avoid being restricted to a specific week each year. Thank you, Laurie

Since WorldMark is a club, the transfer process is easy and quick.

The points will book any location. We love our WorldMark. We own 46,000 points. It's the most flexible and has a great selection of resorts, including some areas with very limited timeshares. Yellowstone, Estes Park, Anaheim, just to name a few areas where timeshares are scarce. You really have to book those three way ahead of time.

The owner (or broker, if applicable) requests the transfer paperwork from Wyndham and pays the $399 transfer fee. About 3 months later, a
DocuSign email is sent to the owner(s) to e-sign, then it is sent to the buyer to e-sign. About 2 months after that, the buyer is informed the transfer is complete. The process is easy, but it tests one's patience.

It is a club membership; there are no home resorts. All the credits work the same beginning 13 months before arrival. There are Canadian accounts and American accounts. They work the same, they just cannot be combined.

A brief overview is available here


and more in-depth information is available through the links here

Resell Worldmark has full access to the 90+ Worldmark Resorts, BonusTime, Inventory Specials, and Monday Madness. They get the same Housekeeping Tokens and Guest Certificates. They do not have access to Club Pass. Allows Worldmark Owners to Book Wyndham Resorts. You can join II and/or RCI on your own. With RCI your Account would be a Weeks Account and not a Points Account. I do not know about II.

Thank you for all your comments! It’s very helpful! Still wondering how if anyone has bought from the tag marketplace. I’m looking to buy but the cost is $1750 and I just wonder if that is upfront or once the transfer happens?

It depends on the seller. You can look for resale contracts at wmowners.com. wmowners.com is a dedicated forum for Worldmark owners, like TUGbbs.

Does resale also have access to non us worldmark locations such as fiji e.g. is there any difference in booking us and non us locations for resale or they work all the same

Thanks
