Selling Tahiti Village - need help

[ajperez52408]

I have read the articles here about selling already. My only question now is pricing. I want to recoup a little money, like $500 or $1000 for the timeshare but I'm not sure if it's worth it or just price it for $1.

I currently have a Royal Tahitian (2bed/2 bath, annual) unit at Tahiti Village in Las Vegas. I see other people have placed ads here and they want thousands for their Tahiti Village timeshare and it's only for the one bedroom/one bathroom unit.

Will people actually pay to buy this timeshare?

I just don't want to lose more money for the timeshare since I have to spend money to transfer the timeshare to the new buyer, e.g. recording fee, transfer fee, general fee, etc.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

You can have the buyer pay closing costs, fees etc. check to see if others are selling for more than fees...good luck!

Don't get confuse over what people are asking and what they are getting. On TUG we like to look at recent eBay sales to see what's going in over there.

The ones in green are the only ones that got bids.

SilentG gave you good advice. Offer the unit for what you think it may sell at and say that the buyer will pay closing and transfer fees.

You can always lower your price than offer to pay those fees.

I you want out bad and you want out now, offer to pay it up front.

The real deal killer on any Consolidated (now Soleil) managed property is their OUTRAGEOUS transfer fee of $550. It's the highest I know of. They say some of it is for the "replacement fund," or something. That's garbage. The company just keeps it. And if they replace furniture in the units, we get increases in our fees to cover the furniture. They don't have any kind of replacement fund.

They are a terrible management company, but the people actually at the resorts are awesome.

I've seen some independent resort xfer fees at $1000! I think HGVC just upped theirs to $499-500/ contract. In all these cases, the amounts involved are ridiculous and only help to depress resale values further.

I have just purchased two timeshares at Tahiti village for $1 with the seller paying all transfer fees and 2015 maint, fees. I know that's not what you want to hear but seems to be the going rate.

Where and how you sell it influence the price. If I were you I'd list it for $1000 plus fees and market the heck out of it. For example, post ads everywhere (TUG, craigslist, eBay classifieds, redweek, plus all the other up and coming online classifieds as well as zillow, etc). I'd write up a great description that really highlights all the positives of the ownership (everything nice about the resort such as the lazy river, Sandy beach pool, location on las vegas Blvd, proximity to great shopping at the outlet mall and town square, etc etc etc plus the exchange options detailed with specific examples). I'd post a ton of pictures of the resort and a few symbolic of Vegas. Then I'd wait 6 months (refreshing the ads once a week). If no action. I'd lower the price. If after 6 months still no real action then I'd put it on eBay auctions. If it didn't sell there I'd give it away on TUG for free.

Coral resorts in Hilton head charge $1500. $500 goes straight to Reba, the management company and the rest go to future mf's. The fee is the same for annual, biennial, and triennial deeds. Grrr.

Tahiti village truly is a nice resort and an oasis in the desert with reasonable maintenance fees. The pool and lazy river are the nicest places to relax in the Las Vegas area in my opinion.
