I've already posted this to the "Buying Selling Renting" thread, but after reading additional posts at TUG, just want to express my thanks to everyone who has contributed - there is a lot of intel on this sight and it really helps.
Like many before me (and many more after me) I attended the high-stakes sales pitch, in this case from Westgate Park City (yesterday). Two free lift tickets were on the line, and I had forgotten how painful my last "seminar" was with a marketer. Hours later, I was half-way into the buying process when it became time to catch a flight home and I left the resort - without having signed a contract or deed (or anything that the closing officers/notary) provided. Being half-way into the process, I did sign a "proposal review document" and a "1BR Type A Floor Plan." I saw the Property Report and the Receipt of Property Report document, but didn't manage to sign either one.
Westgate was touting a "Developer's First Time Incentive" program - and with the offer of 10 "Getaways" I thought I would rent those out and cover some of my costs (now I know it's probably unlikely to land availability). I've also come to realize (from TUG and Google) that Westgate is a horrific company to deal with or be associated with. It's a true shame, since Park City really is really nice and the allure of being able to exchange that timeshare for other vacation spots a good idea.
I'm assuming that since I haven't actually signed "the official document" Westgate will be mailing (they said they would yesterday) them to me for signature.
I'm thinking if I just write back saying "no" in addition to sending it to their cancellation address (which I think is Westgate Resorts at 2801 Professional Parkway Ocoee, FL 34761) as well, I'll be free and clear?
