Purchasing a Timeshare

First my experience has shown to NEVER buy a timeshare from a developer especially while attending a "free" promotion. If you are a person who is unable to say "NO" then do not go!

Beware of envelopes bearing gifts. Many people have received happy news that as part of a promotional effort to sell timeshares, they were the lucky winners of a free trip to a tropical paradise. We all know it's hard to resist the lure of a dream come true for little or no apparent expense. Unfortunately, all that glitters is not gold and all that's promised is not delivered Often the free trip turns out to be a grueling trek from timeshare to timeshare, punctuated by endless sales talks, and topped off by a whopping bill for hidden costs and unforseen charges.

Now dont get me wrong there are reputable timeshare developers who do provide low cost vacations but they are selling timeshare units at ~ a 300% markup. If you don't care about money then this blog is not for you.

tomorrow I will cover way s to avoid the developer TS trap and better yet how to purchase a TS for pennies on the dollar
