We found a company to help
After 10 years of timeshare ownership, my wife and I decided it was time to give up the timeshare. There were a variety of reasons to get out, none of which were dissatisfaction with the beautiful resort which was our "homeweek" facility. Our only real issue throughout the 10 years was the constant phone calls trying to talk us into purchasing more "points", especially after telling the salespeople that we were NOT going to buy more! We starting looking into how to get out of our timeshare by talking to the ownership of the timeshare. No dice. They would not even take back our obligation if we gave it to them! So, fast forward to about 8 months ago. My wife showed me a web site that listed possible companies that would help you get out of timeshare obligations. When I contacted the second company I spoke with Mr. Kushman with Timeshare Specialists. He was patient, informative, straight-up, and VERY prompt responding to our questions over the 6 months it took to complete the paperwork. Yes it cost money to get out, but the amount paid will be evened out after three years of paying the timeshare yearly "fees, taxes. etc. to the timeshare if we were still obligated. No, we did not get any of our initial investment in the timeshare, but we knew that two years ago. Timeshare Specialists require NO up front money. Many do, and STAY AWAY FROM ANY THAT DO! It did take about 5 months to get out of our obligation, but looking back it was well worth it. All in all, the team at Timeshare Specialists was great!
