The timeshare had a clean free deed. There was no loans. I defaulted on the maintenance fees.The timeshare week will go to foreclosure auction. In most cases, the HOA (or developer if foreclosing on a timeshare loan) will bid what they are owed for the timeshare. If no one else bids then the HOA (or developer) takes over title. What happens after that can depend on the state where the property is located. In a recourse situation they could try to get an additional judgement for the deficiencies owed or write off the debt. In a non recourse state, they can't go after any deficiencies. If they write off any deficiencies they can possibly issue a 1099-C (usually the case in a timeshare loan) which could have certain income tax implications.

Certified mail from law firmwhat state is the timeshare in?
given the cost of actual forclosure, id bet the resort actually reaches out to offer you to sign the deed back over to them vs going thru the legal process of obtaining it back via forclosure.
was the letter you got just a form letter from the resort? or delivered via certified mail from an lawfirm?
Was there a minimum bid in place for them?My first few timeshares were purchased on the "courthouse steps" after they were foreclosed on. I paid the purchase price and a small fee for document creation and filing. I then started paying annual maintenance fees on the intervals. None of the arrears.
