I just read on another thread that someone got a MMC platinum for $7100.00. this raised a question in my mind about why someone would sell on their own vs letting Marriott resales handle it. Now I know that marriott resales will only list it if the resort is sold out and a lot of people are listing units in non sold out resorts. I also know that sometimes even if Marriott resales will take it there is a waiting list of people ahead of you that want to sell. For example it took 18 months for my Barony Beach unit to reach the top of the wait list and for Marriott to send me a listing agreement but once they had accepted it for sale it sold within 45 days. I netted $13980.00 for a oceanview gold week.
A couple of months ago I contacted them and asked about resales on MMC and found out that they would accept my unit for immediate listing with no waiting list. Once they found me a buyer I would net $14250.00 for my platinum week. I have no hassles trying to find my own buyer and deal with all the negotatioins and low ball offers etc. etc. The seller of the MMC unit I mentioned only got $7100.00 for their MMC and they could have received double that if they had sold it through Marriott so what gives here?
