RCI 89K Regal Vista
Previous: Travel Advantage Network (TAN)
Sat through a WestGate Mrytle Beach presentation the other day. It was a hard sell, starting at 150K down to buy a week at $1,000 before we said "no mas"
The condo look fantastic which lead me to here to check out the resale market...
Looks like that does not exist for WestGate or they make it so retail buyers cannot offload it since resale value is completely cratered by WestGate.
Should I look a Wyndham? I like how the maintenance fees for a 2 br is $1028 but I think others might be much higher.
Thoughts?
