There is a lot to watch out for in the world of timeshares. If you are going to become – or remain – a timeshare owner and have a good experience, you need to be sure to watch out for some of the scams that revolve around this industry. By knowing what to watch for and what to expect, you can make decisions that will protect yourself and your family.

The article below highlights some of the things to pay attention to with regard to timeshares. You’ll have to make the decision for yourself if you want to get involved with a timeshare, or if you want to stay involved with one you already own, but arming yourself with the information below should make it easier to arrive at a balanced, reasonable decision on this matter.

1. Upgrade Offers

This first one on our list actually applies specifically to people who are already timeshare owners. Once you purchase a timeshare and start to pay your ongoing fees to maintain that account, you likely think that you are done with your purchases from the developer. That’s not how it often goes, however. In many cases, the first purchase to buy into the timeshare is only the starting point, and plenty of other sales pitches will be made moving forward in an attempt to get you to upgrade your membership to unlock additional perks.

Those perks can vary from one situation to the next, but will often include things like access to nicer rooms or different properties, preference with regard to booking, or even reduced fees on your account. However, as with so much in the timeshare world, all is not always as it seems, and you might quickly find that you regret paying for this “upgrade” shortly after the deal is finished. Rarely do the benefits of upgrading your account add up in terms of what you had to pay, so you’ll probably feel like you would have been better off keeping your money all along.

2. Resale Scams

There is a whole ecosystem around the timeshare industry that extends far beyond just the timeshare developers themselves. Included in that ecosystem are companies that offer to sell your timeshare to get you out of the contract and earn you money at the same time. While not all resale offers are scams, it’s wise to be quite wary when entering into an agreement that offers this service.

The primary risk here is paying an upfront price to a resale company that won’t wind up being able to sell the timeshare in the end. If that happens, you are out the money that you paid to the reseller and you are still stuck with the timeshare. If you are going to agree to have a third-party attempt to sell your timeshare, it’s important that you do so without paying anything upfront for that service. Only consider working with a company that is going to get paid on a percentage or fee basis after the deal is done – and even then, be cautious and do your homework just to be safe.

3. Bait-and-Switch Presentations

This is perhaps the biggest complaint that people have about the timeshare industry as a whole. The experience that is presented to potential timeshare buyers as what they will enjoy after they become a member commonly turns into something very different once the membership experience gets started. Some presentations are more honest and forthright than others, but many people feel what they are told while the developer is pursuing a sale is not what they find after making a purchase.

One example of this issue is the trouble that many owners have finding available times to book after they purchase a timeshare. In the presentation, there is rarely – if ever – talk about how competitive it will be to book a spot at the best properties during the best times of the year. All of the images and videos show people having fun in the sun at a beachfront resort, but will you be able to get that spot year after year? Or are there too many other owners in the system to make it realistic for you to get such a great reservation? Plenty of timeshare owners later try to get out of their ownership contract specifically because they aren’t able to make reservations easily when and where they want them.

4. Misleading Gift Offers

The standard method for getting people to agree to sit in timeshare presentations is by offering them a gift of some kind. In some cases, this gift is pretty straightforward, like a gift card to a restaurant in the area, or even a physical product. In other cases, the timeshare developer might be offering a couple of nights – or more – at one of their properties in exchange for taking the time to listen to their sales pitch. When executed fairly, there is nothing wrong with the exchange of goods or services for the time of people who might be interested in buying a timeshare.

Unfortunately, many people have had the experience of agreeing to sit in a timeshare presentation only to find that it’s not as easy as they expected to get that gift. These kinds of sales presentations can drag on for many hours, and when people ask about getting their gift, so they can leave, those questions will often be put off and drug out as long as possible. In some cases, the gift will prove nearly impossible to receive, or it will require that people jump through so many hoops along the way that they finally just give up and leave empty-handed.

5. Fraudulent Exit Companies

Good timeshare exit companies can provide an outstanding service for their clients – but they aren’t all good. Some companies in this space are only trying to make a quick dollar and won’t wind up providing any results for the money you spend. As we mentioned earlier with regard to resale companies, the key here is to avoid paying upfront for services that haven’t yet been rendered. Instead, work with an exit company that offers an escrow service to hold your money while they work on the case. That’s a better path and will prevent you from being scammed.

6. Rental Income Offers

The idea of renting out some of your timeshare vacation time to other travelers in order to cover some of the costs of owning that timeshare is very appealing. As such, some companies will promote their ability to find renters for you in exchange for some of the revenue. Again here, this is where timeshare owners are often left disappointed.

Despite the bold claims made by many of these companies, it’s often the case that they have far too much rental inventory and not nearly enough interested renters to bring in meaningful revenue. If you are going to try to take the rental route in order to make some money back on your timeshare ownership, do it cautiously and only work with reputable companies.

7. Unsolicited Sales Pitches

Sometimes, it seems like timeshare scams come out of the clear blue sky. You aren’t looking for information on timeshares, or even traveling to a place where timeshares are common – only to suddenly get a message on your phone or through an email that is trying to pitch you a timeshare purchase. Often, these unsolicited pitches come along with special offers or gifts, as we talked about above.

Of course, you are free to simply decline these pitches, but the salespeople behind them are often quite skilled and experienced, and it can be hard for some people to say no. Always think twice about agreeing to buy something – or even hear about something – that you weren’t interested in until an offer came to you out of nowhere.

8. Unnecessary Rescission Services

The last entry in our list of timeshare-related scams has to do with services that will help timeshare buyers use the rescission period to get out of their purchase. This period of time – which varies from place to place, but is often about a week – provides buyers with an easy way out if they have second thoughts shortly after buying a timeshare.

The problem with these services is this – they aren’t really necessary. Almost any buyer can utilize this cooling-off period on their own, simply by contacting the developer directly and informing them of their desire to cancel the contract. Paying for rescission services just isn’t needed in the vast majority of cases and will simply be a waste of money.

On the surface, the offer made by a timeshare company sounds pretty good. You get to invest in an appealing property or set of properties where you’ll be able to make countless memories with friends and family members for years to come. After looking at some great pictures, or even touring the facility for yourself, it will be hard to think of anything bad to say about the offer in front of you.

It’s especially tempting when you compare the cost of buying a timeshare to the cost of buying your own vacation property in the same area. Where you might not be able to afford a vacation house or condo, you can do the math and see that the timeshare will fit into your budget. What’s not to love?

The shiny exterior of timeshares is what causes so many people to sign on the dotted line, ignoring the dark interior that leads many people to determine that timeshares are a scam. Let’s take a closer look in this article to uncover what it is that should cause you to run in the other direction when anyone talks to you about an “exciting” timeshare opportunity.

#1 – The Hard Sell

As a starting point, we can look at the tactics that are used by timeshare industry professionals in an attempt to sell you on their timeshare product. These tactics are notorious for being some of the more aggressive – and potentially misleading – in the consumer sales world. Anyone who has sat through one of these “presentations” can speak to just how hard the salesperson is going to work to get you to sign on the dotted line.

While every industry employs sales professionals to close deals, you should stop and think about why they are having to work so hard to convince people to make a purchase. Why use so many tricky tactics? Why offer so many freebies along the way? If the product could stand up to its price in terms of being offered at fair market value, it wouldn’t seem like any of those steps would be necessary.

It might be most helpful to contrast this situation to the experience of buying a traditional home. If you are in the market to buy a house, you’ll likely work with a real estate agent to search properties in your target area – and the seller’s side will also be represented by an agent. To be sure, these agents have a vested financial interest in closing a deal. Yet they aren’t going to be using the aggressive tactics that timeshare industry professionals so often employ.

Instead, the agents in a potential home sale are just going to present the information to their client, answer any questions they may have, and help them find the right property (or accept the right offer, in the case of the seller). No hard selling tactics are needed because the value of the investment is obvious. The buyer will own a hard asset, and while that asset will go up and down in value over time, there is a tangible nature to the purchase that makes it more transparent.

With a timeshare, things are more ambiguous. There are points, maintenance fees, blackout dates, and on and on. What you own isn’t entirely clear, and it’s quite likely that the true market value of your purchase will never amount to what you paid for it – even on the same day that you write the check.

#2 – A Non-Investment

The nature of investing in anything is that the value of your investment can go up or down. This is true of traditional real estate, as we discussed above, and it’s true of the stock market, collectibles, and everything else. Investing is risky, even if the degree of risk that you take on depends on the nature of the investment.

It’s hard to say that timeshares are a bad investment, however, because they really aren’t an investment at all. With a true investment, there exists some possibility that what you purchased will be worth more than the purchase price when you go to sell it in the future. In the case of a timeshare, that just isn’t going to happen. Not only will you fail to make any money on this purchase, but it’s likely that you won’t even be able to sell it at all.

Countless people would be happy to give away their timeshare to anyone who would pay the closing costs and annual maintenance fees. If there was any potential investment value in a timeshare, you wouldn’t have a whole niche market of companies that exist solely to help people get out of their timeshares.

#3 – The Waters are Murky

So far, things aren’t looking great for timeshares as we dive into how they play out in the real world. Most people who purchase a timeshare are pressured into making that purchase, and once they do, it becomes clear that the hard-earned money they spent isn’t going to lead to any kind of positive investment down the line. As we continue to answer the question of why are timeshares scams, we now turn our attention to the confusing, murky pricing structure that they use.

If you make the decision to take part in a timeshare presentation, you might expect that you’ll be presented with a price relatively shortly into that presentation. After all, they are trying to sell you something – so shouldn’t the price of that thing be provided upfront? It should be, but it isn’t.

Instead, you’ll get nothing but fluff during the early stages of the presentation. You’ll be shown plenty of attractive pictures, maybe even tour the property, and perhaps be given a couple of hand-picked case studies highlighting families that have loved their timeshare experience. Nowhere in there will you find details about the actual cost of this purchase.

Then, when that point finally does come into the picture, the first price that you are shown will likely be more than they expect you to pay. This “start-high” strategy is meant to soften you up for offers that are going to come later. If you initially say no in your mind when you see the first price, the actual price that they hope you will pay by the end of the presentation will start to seem like a great deal (even though it isn’t).

The asking price for a timeshare can be so fluid because there really isn’t any firm underlying value. The “value” of the timeshare is only what they can get you or another buyer to pay for it – and a big percentage of the purchase price is going to go to the salesperson in the form of a commission.

In addition to an upfront purchase price that is never quite set in stone, you’ll also be committing to taking on the maintenance fee that is likely to continue climbing year after year. Even if you think that fee is reasonable enough at the moment, you can’t count on it staying there – it’s going to go up, and your experience as a timeshare owner is only going to get more expensive moving forward.

Finally, the ongoing costs associated with owning a timeshare don’t stop at maintenance fees. Special assessment fees can come into the picture as well, which may be levied when something like a natural disaster occurs and the property needs to be repaired or renovated. As an owner, you’ll be legally on the hook for these fees, even if you rarely – or never – use the timeshare.

#4 – Promises That Fall Flat

Perhaps the most frustrating thing of all for timeshare owners is simply that they often don’t feel like they wind up getting what they were promised. This feels particularly painful because timeshare industry professionals work hard to forge personal relationships at the start with their leads, so they can gain trust and hopefully make a sale. In the end, they often wind up betraying that trust by offering confusing or misleading promises that misrepresent the experience of becoming an owner.

They will paint a picture of you and your family spending relaxing vacations in glorious conditions, enjoying the nicest rooms in the building. But is that how it will play out in real life? Probably not – remember, countless other people have received this same sales pitch, and been given these same notions. How many of the luxury corner suites could possibly even be available? Does your specific ownership level entitle you to access to those types of rooms?

Even if you don’t care about getting to stay in the luxury rooms, you might struggle to find availability at all in the summer months when the weather is nice and everyone wants to travel. Those shiny timeshare sales brochures would look a lot different if the pictures weren’t taken on a warm, sunny day. You might look on a site like Expedia during the summer to see units available at the property you want to visit, yet you could be told nothing is open when you try to book through the timeshare.

So many people are disappointed with their experience as a timeshare owner because reality usually falls way short of expectations. Those expectations were set sky-high in the initial sales pitch, which is why people agree to spend their money in the first place. As the months and years pass, and small issues turn into big ones, the façade comes crashing down and many owners start to see this experience for what it really is – a letdown and a waste from start to finish.

Get Out Now

Las mejores compañías de salida de tiempo compartido

 

¿Está buscando una empresa de salida de tiempo compartido, pero no está seguro en cuál confiar? Ha llegado al lugar adecuado. Hemos revisado todas las diferentes compañías por usted, para que pueda evitar estafas.

Nuestra recomendación número 1 es trabajar con empresas que ofrezcan una opción de pago en depósito, de modo que la empresa no reciba el pago completo hasta después de la cancelación del tiempo compartido. Esto le permite controlar el proceso de salida de tiempo compartido, ya que usted decide cuándo se paga a la empresa. Aprenda más sobre el depósito en garantía y por qué es importante aquí.

6 BEST TIMESHARE EXIT COMPANIES

Centerstone Group es la mejor valorada por varias razones.

Nuestra cualidad favorita de esta empresa es su opción de pago por depósito en garantía. Cuando usted paga por un servicio de salida de tiempo compartido con fideicomiso, la compañía no recibe el pago completo hasta después de que el tiempo compartido sea cancelado.

También nos gusta cómo Centerstone Group utiliza múltiples estrategias de salida de tiempo compartido para que usted salga lo más rápido posible y al menor costo. Esto difiere de otras empresas que sólo ofrecen una estrategia de salida. Si una empresa de salida sólo ofrece una estrategia para sacarlo de su tiempo compartido, puede llevar a costos más altos y un plazo más largo para cancelar el tiempo compartido.

Centerstone Group cuenta con más de 30 años de experiencia en el sector del tiempo compartido, por lo que puede estar seguro de que estará en buenas manos con ellos.

Customer Reviews:


Wesley Financial Group es una de las mayores empresas de salida de tiempo compartido que existen.

Nos gusta esta empresa principalmente por su gran tamaño y su fuerte respaldo financiero. La empresa es lo suficientemente grande como para absorber cualquier tipo de problema legal que pueda surgir con promotores de tiempo compartido descontentos como Wyndham.

De hecho, el propietario de la empresa, Chuck McDowell, se enfrentó a Wyndham en los tribunales y ganó. Una hazaña impresionante teniendo en cuenta que la mayoría haría las maletas y saldría corriendo ante una demanda de una empresa multimillonaria como Wyndham.

Wesley Financial no ofrece la opción de pago en depósito, sino que ofrece una garantía de devolución del dinero. Nosotros preferimos el depósito en garantía antes que la garantía de devolución del dinero, pero en el caso de Wesley no nos preocupa demasiado debido a su tamaño y solidez.

A diferencia de nuestras tres principales empresas recomendadas para la salida de un tiempo compartido, Wesley Financial no utiliza abogados para cancelar los tiempos compartidos. En su lugar, la empresa tiene su propio método para sacar a los propietarios que no requiere el uso de un costoso equipo legal.

Pros

    ✔ Garantía de devolución del 100% del dinero
    ✔ Alta calificación de Dunn & Bradstreet
    ✔ Excelente servicio al cliente
    ✔ Más de 300 empleados
    ✔ Calificación A+ en BBB
    ✔En el negocio desde 2012

Contras
    ✖ No hay opción de pago de depósito en garantía

Customer Reviews






Resolution Timeshare Cancellation es otra de las mejores empresas que nos gusta recomendar.

Esta empresa es mucho más pequeña que nuestras otras empresas mejor valoradas. Esto les permite ser ágiles y mantener sus precios bajos.

Resolution es una de las empresas más honestas que existen. La compañía tiene una estructura de precios de tarifa plana y no tiene agentes de ventas comisionados.

Timeshare Specialists

Timeshare Specialists opera de forma diferente a muchas de las otras empresas de salida. En lugar de utilizar abogados para representarlo, Timeshare Specialists aprovecha su experiencia y sus relaciones con el sector para encontrar receptores dispuestos a vender su tiempo compartido. Esto suele ser mucho menos costoso que recurrir a un abogado para intentar deshacerse de su tiempo compartido y será mucho más seguro para su crédito en general. De hecho, su crédito no se verá afectado de ninguna manera si decide trabajar con Timeshare Specialists.

La empresa se especializa en la búsqueda de personas que están interesadas en la propiedad de tiempo compartido, pero no están dispuestas a pagar el gran costo inicial. Esto no es fácil si se tiene en cuenta que muchas propiedades en régimen de tiempo compartido son extremadamente difíciles de vender en Internet, incluso por un precio tan bajo como un dólar.

Pros

¿Qué ocurre si dejo de pagar las cuotas de mantenimiento de tiempo compartido?

Al igual que cualquier otra factura, si deja de pagar probablemente habrá consecuencias. Muchas veces, el encargado del tiempo compartido ejecutará la hipoteca y su puntuación de crédito se verá afectada negativamente en 100 puntos o más.

Cuando su puntuación de crédito baja, puede ser más difícil obtener un préstamo para comprar una casa o un vehículo. Si consigue obtener un préstamo, es probable que el tipo de interés sea más alto que el que habría tenido si no hubiera dejado de pagar las cuotas de mantenimiento del tiempo compartido.

En algunos casos raros, los encargados han llegado a demandar al propietario en un intento de cobrar el pago. Si se dicta una sentencia en su contra, es posible que se embargue su salario hasta que se cobre el saldo pendiente. Sin embargo, esto no suele ocurrir.

Obtenga más información sobre lo que ocurre cuando se aleja de las cuotas de mantenimiento de tiempo compartido.

¿Cómo salir de un tiempo compartido sin arruinar el crédito?

Esto es exactamente lo que una empresa de salida de tiempo compartido puede ayudarle a conseguir. Las empresas buscan la manera de sacarlo de su tiempo compartido sin arruinar su crédito. Si su crédito se fuera a arruinar, no tendría sentido contratar a una empresa de este giro.

Las empresas de salida de tiempo compartido han estudiado normalmente cómo funciona la forma de operar de cada uno de los diferentes promotores para saber qué hacer para sacarle de su tiempo compartido sin arruinar su crédito.

Las estrategias para conseguir su salida variarán dependiendo del, pero normalmente se utiliza una de estas tres estrategias.

  1. Presionar al promotor de tiempo compartido mediante reclamaciones públicas.
  2. Transferir el tiempo compartido a un receptor dispuesto.
  3. Contratar a un abogado para que amenace al promotor de tiempo compartido con emprender acciones legales.

Otra opción para deshacerse de un tiempo compartido sin arruinar el crédito es vender el tiempo compartido en el mercado de reventa.

¿Cómo salirse de un tiempo compartido?

Salir usted mismo de una multipropiedad puede ser difícil si no está familiarizado con el proceso.

Normalmente, tendrá que seguir los siguientes pasos.

1. Rescindir la compra de tiempo compartido para obtener un reembolso completo. Tenga en cuenta que la mayoría de las propiedades en régimen de tiempo compartido sólo pueden rescindirse para obtener un reembolso completo entre 3 y 15 días después de la compra.

2. Pida al promotor de tiempo compartido que se lo devuelva. A veces, los promotores de tiempo compartido aceptan la devolución de su tiempo compartido si necesitan inventario.

3. Regale el tiempo compartido a un amigo o familiar.

4. Anuncie el tiempo compartido en venta por 1 dólar y espere que alguien se lo quite de las manos. Ebay y Craigslist son buenos lugares para anunciar un tiempo compartido en venta. Tenga en cuenta que no debe esperar vender su tiempo compartido por más del precio de compra original. Las empresas que le llaman de improviso y le dicen que tienen un comprador que quiere comprar su tiempo compartido son casi siempre una estafa.

Estafas en la salida del tiempo compartido

A la hora de buscar soluciones para la salida del tiempo compartido, hay que tener en cuenta algunas cosas:

“7 Ways to Avoid Timeshare Exit Scams

  • Asegurarse de que la empresa que está considerando tiene algún tipo de garantía de devolución del dinero o una opción de pago en depósito. Una empresa que ofrezca una opción de pago por adelantado de baja cuota es su apuesta más segura, pero no muchas empresas ofrecen esta opción de pago.
  • Evite las empresas que no tienen presencia en Internet. Si la empresa no tiene un sitio web, es probable que sea una estafa. Las calificaciones y reseñas en línea de las empresas de salida de tiempo compartido pueden ayudar en esta investigación.
  • Evite las empresas con una mala calificación del BBB o sin calificación.
  • Evite las empresas que no tengan un historial de éxito en la salida de los propietarios de tiempo compartido de su contrato.
  • Pida todo siempre todo por escrito.
  • Compare siempre los precios.

Las empresas de salida de tiempo compartido funcionan de varias maneras. Algunas exigen que se pague por adelantado y otras le permiten pagar una parte del costo del servicio con una opción de pago de depósito en garantía de bajo costo por adelantado. No todas las empresas que exigen el pago por adelantado son una estafa, pero hay que tener cuidado porque algunas empresas de salida en el pasado han tomado el dinero del cliente por adelantado y luego nunca cancelaron el tiempo compartido. Por eso nos gusta recomendar la opción de pago por adelantado cuando se trabaja con una empresa de este giro.

¿Qué es la salida de tiempo compartido?

La salida del tiempo compartido es el proceso de salir de su tiempo compartido y dejar de pagar las futuras cuotas de mantenimiento. Salir de un tiempo compartido no es lo mismo que venderlo. Cuando se sale de un tiempo compartido, no se debe esperar recibir ninguna ganancia por la venta. En cambio, debe esperar pagar a un equipo de especialistas y/o abogados para que le ayuden a deshacerse del tiempo compartido y a detener las futuras cuotas.

¿Por qué el tiempo compartido pierde valor?

El tiempo compartido no es similar a los bienes inmuebles tradicionales porque no suele aumentar su valor con el tiempo. De hecho, en algunos estados como Florida, es ilegal que un vendedor de tiempo compartido afirme que un tiempo compartido es similar a un bien inmueble porque, sencillamente, no es cierto. La mayoría de los tiempos compartidos pierden casi todo su valor en el momento en que se compran.

La mayor parte del costo del tiempo compartido se compone del costo de los regalos gratuitos que se le ofrecen para atraerle a la presentación y de la comisión del vendedor que le ha vendido el tiempo compartido. El costo del tiempo compartido no suele reflejar el valor del producto que se recibe. Por eso, el precio del tiempo compartido suele ser mucho más alto al principio de la presentación de ventas, pero luego disminuye drásticamente al final de esta. Los vendedores se inventan el precio sobre la marcha y tratan de sacarle todo el dinero posible. Nunca confíe en un vendedor que trabaja a comisión. No tienen en cuenta sus intereses.

Mentiras comunes de los vendedores de tiempo compartido

Si le dijeron alguna de las siguientes mentiras durante la presentación de ventas, puede ser un buen candidato para una empresa de salida de tiempo compartido.

Mentira 1. Puede rentar el tiempo compartido para obtener beneficios

Algunos vendedores dicen a los posibles compradores que el tiempo compartido puede alquilarse para obtener beneficios, pero esto suele ser mucho más difícil de lo que el vendedor hace parecer. En primer lugar, muchos centros turísticos no permiten alquilar el tiempo compartido. En segundo lugar, aunque se pueda encontrar un arrendatario, el alquiler suele conllevar unos gastos que convierten todo el proceso en una enorme pérdida de tiempo.

También hemos oído historias de propietarios de tiempo compartido que han alquilado sus unidades y luego han tenido que pagar varias tasas adicionales debido a que el inquilino ha causado daños a la unidad.

Por último, es probable que tenga que pagar tasas a un sitio como Redweek o Craigslist para anunciar el tiempo compartido en renta.

Mentira 2. Puede vender el tiempo compartido más adelante cuando ya no lo quiera

Muchos tiempos compartidos han adquirido una mala reputación con el paso del tiempo, y esa mala reputación ha hecho que sea aún más difícil venderlos en el mercado de reventa, incluso por 1 dólar. Por eso muchos promotores de tiempos compartidos se refieren a sus productos como “propiedad vacacional” en 2021 en lugar de “tiempo compartido”. Incluso si puede vender el tiempo compartido, probablemente no será por mucho más de un dólar. ¡Muchos propietarios ni siquiera pueden regalar su tiempo compartido!

Además, si quieres vender el tiempo compartido, es probable que tenga que pagar tasas adicionales a un sitio como Redweek, Craigsist o Ebay para anunciarlo. Si consigue encontrar un comprador, es probable que también tenga que pagar los costos de cierre y las tasas de transferencia al complejo.

Mentira 3. Si usted compra nuestro tiempo compartido, nosotros compraremos su otro tiempo compartido

Hemos escuchado que esta mentira la dicen los vendedores en México más que en los Estados Unidos, pero hemos escuchado de varios propietarios que esto es lo que les dijeron al comprar el tiempo compartido. Los complejos de tiempo compartido no están en el negocio de comprar su otro tiempo compartido. Están en el negocio de vender la mayor cantidad posible de sus propios tiempos compartidos.

Mentira 4. El tiempo compartido es una buena inversión

Esta es una de las peores mentiras de la industria del tiempo compartido. Un tiempo compartido nunca es una buena inversión porque casi todos los tiempos compartidos pierden casi todo su valor en el momento en que se compran.

Mentira 5. Podrá utilizar el tiempo compartido cuando quiera

Esta despreciable mentira suele decirse verbalmente durante la presentación de la venta y rara vez aparece en un contrato. Un vendedor puede prometerle que puede reservar el tiempo compartido durante la temporada alta, pero cuando vaya a hacerlo, descubrirá que las fechas no están disponibles. Irónicamente, esas fechas de temporada alta estarán probablemente disponibles en sitios como Expedia para que otras personas que no son los dueños las reserven. Esto se debe a que los complejos pueden ganar mucho más dinero del que no están obligados a pagarles, independientemente de si pueden reservar durante la temporada alta o no.

Salida de Tiempo Compartido vs Reventa de Tiempo Compartido

La mayoría de los propietarios de tiempo compartido que recurren a un servicio de salida de tiempo compartido han intentado primero vender su tiempo compartido o devolverlo al complejo sin éxito. Puede ser extremadamente difícil vender un tiempo compartido en el mercado de reventa porque ya hay muchos disponibles para la venta en línea en sitios como Ebay por 1 dólar.

Algunos propietarios han tenido éxito vendiendo su tiempo compartido a través de un agente de reventa, pero estos agentes normalmente sólo trabajan con tiempos compartidos de alto valor porque trabajan a comisión. Si su tiempo compartido sólo vale 1 dólar, un agente de tiempo compartido no tendrá mucho interés en trabajar con usted porque su comisión será demasiado baja. En la mayoría de los estados es ilegal que un agente de reventa de tiempo compartido cobre una comisión por adelantado, razón por la cual se utiliza la estructura de comisiones para la compensación de un agente.

Costo de salida del tiempo compartido

Hay un montón de abogados y empresas por ahí y algunos pueden ser significativamente más baratos que otros. Algunos pueden cobrar 10,000 dólares mientras que otros sólo 4,000 dólares. Ninguna empresa de salida de tiempo compartido le dará un precio hasta que pase por una consulta gratuita. El abogado de la empresa debe evaluar su situación y determinar la cantidad de trabajo que va a tomar su caso.

Preguntas Frecuentes

 

¿Qué debo hacer si me ha estafado una empresa de salida de tiempo compartido?

Muchos propietarios de tiempo compartido se encuentran en una situación en la que han pagado a una empresa para que les ayude a salir de su tiempo compartido, pero la empresa no ha cumplido sus promesas. Esto suele ocurrir con más frecuencia a los propietarios que deciden contratar a una sin opción de pago de depósito.

Normalmente, lo mejor que puede hacer en estas situaciones es presentar una queja a la BBB y presentar una queja al fiscal general del estado en el que operaba la empresa de salida de tiempo compartido. En algunos casos, se están montando demandas colectivas que pueden ayudarle a obtener un reembolso.

Si ha contratado alguna de las siguientes empresas de salida de multipropiedad, le han estafado:

¿Qué ocurre si dejo de pagar las cuotas de mantenimiento de tiempo compartido?

Al igual que cualquier otra factura, si deja de pagar probablemente habrá consecuencias. Muchas veces, el encargado del tiempo compartido ejecutará la hipoteca y su puntuación de crédito se verá afectada negativamente en 100 puntos o más.

Cuando su puntuación de crédito baja, puede ser más difícil obtener un préstamo para comprar una casa o un vehículo. Si consigue obtener un préstamo, es probable que el tipo de interés sea más alto que el que habría tenido si no hubiera dejado de pagar las cuotas de mantenimiento del tiempo compartido.

En algunos casos raros, los encargados han llegado a demandar al propietario en un intento de cobrar el pago. Si se dicta una sentencia en su contra, es posible que se embargue su salario hasta que se cobre el saldo pendiente. Sin embargo, esto no suele ocurrir.

¿Cómo salir de un tiempo compartido sin arruinar el crédito?

Esto es exactamente lo que una empresa de salida de tiempo compartido puede ayudarle a conseguir. Las empresas buscan la manera de sacarlo de su tiempo compartido sin arruinar su crédito. Si su crédito se fuera a arruinar, no tendría sentido contratar a una empresa de este giro.

Las empresas de salida de tiempo compartido han estudiado normalmente cómo funciona la forma de operar de cada uno de los diferentes promotores para saber qué hacer para sacarle de su tiempo compartido sin arruinar su crédito.

Las estrategias para conseguir su salida variarán dependiendo del, pero normalmente se utiliza una de estas tres estrategias.

  1. Presionar al promotor de tiempo compartido mediante reclamaciones públicas.
  2. Transferir el tiempo compartido a un receptor dispuesto.
  3. Contratar a un abogado para que amenace al promotor de tiempo compartido con emprender acciones legales.

Otra opción para deshacerse de un tiempo compartido sin arruinar el crédito es vender el tiempo compartido en el mercado de reventa.

Primo Management Group, Inc (PMG) headquartered in Orlando, Florida, is a consumer advocate, timeshare exit company. The company was formed in 2015 and was co-founded and previously owned by Sean Chesser. Israel Sanchez Jr. is also a co-founder and the company’s current CEO.

An Analysis of Primo Management Group ‘s Website

We like to provide an overview a company’s website and offer our perspective with the intent of helping to educate our readers to they can make an informed decision about which timeshare exit company to hire.

First, when searching for this company, be sure to add “timeshare share exit company” in addition to the company name as there are other companies that share the same name but are not related.

Once we clicked on the website, we immediately noticed the site offers a free chat option powered by “Live Chat”. This is great for anyone who wants to communicate quickly with an agent to get immediate answers to their questions. We encourage you to utilize the “Live Chat” feature if you are ready for a free consultation and if not, be prepared to see the “Live Chat” appear every time you visit a page which can be a little annoying if you are simply trying to read information.

Another feature we noticed that is subtle and helps to enhance the site is a “pop-up” that appears on the bottom left every so often that shows how many times someone interacted with the website. It is a nice way to share with other site visitors that they are not alone in their dilemma.

We like websites that offers various formats to display and share information such as articles, blogs, reviews and especially videos that include the owners or founders of the company. This gives us a sense about who is behind the company and why they formed the timeshare exit company and it is always great to see videos versus reading a lot of text.

On the “Home” page, we watched a video (also listed on the company’s YouTube channel) from Lifetime’s Morning TV show, “The Balancing Act” with hosts Montel Williams and Olga Villaverde interviewing Isreal Sanchez, CEO and a former client about the company. The video is informative and shows the company does invest a bit in marketing efforts as “The Balancing Act” operates much like infomercials in which the company featured does pay for a spot on the program. We cannot confirm if Primo Management Group paid or not to be featured, but we thought it was worth mentioning “The Balancing Act” business model.

While it was great seeing and hearing Isreal Sanchez in the interview, we viewed the “Our Company” page under the “About Us” navigation to see if we could learn more about who is on the Primo Management Group team. We found a short blurb about Isreal, also known as “Izzy”, but no information about who else is part of the team. We typically like to see names, faces and titles listed on the company’s “About Us” pages.

Unfortunately, we did not see any of this information about the core team but under an additional page titled, “Our Attorney”, we read about Catherine Medling who is an attorney that represents Primo Management Group as General Counsel, but not the direct clients as Primo Management Group is not a law firm.

Of course, we clicked the “Learn more about Catherine” link which took us to the Florida Bar website in which we learned she is in good standing and is also a criminal defense lawyer.

This is not an indication that Primo Management Group is in constant need of a criminal defense lawyer. It is important to understand that a “timeshare exit” attorney does not exist, however many lawyers sometimes from various law practices, help in fighting fraudulent sales practices and misrepresentations we see far too often in the timeshare and vacation ownership industry.

We think it is great that Primo Management Group has legal counsel, and the company has a page dedicated to the company’s attorney. Her name is also listed on the company’s BBB profile.

Also found under the “About Us” navigation was a “In the News” page which as you can tell by the title of the page, is dedicated to various articles where the company may have been featured or is referenced. We clicked through a few and of the few we checked, they appear legitimate and link directly to the articles and not additional pages on the company website.

On the “Proof of Performance” page, the company lists some of the company’s customer testimonials along with an image of the letter the former client received confirming timeshare termination. The customer testimonials also include a picture of the reviewer in addition to their full name.

We would encourage you to visit the frequently asked questions section on the home page or also accessible from the top navigation under the dedicated “FAQ” section. In this section, the company covers the basics such as cost, how long is the process and how Primo Management Group operates.

Contained in this section, we learn that Primo Management could help you exit your timeshare even if you still owe a mortgage and your name will be permanently removed as owner from timeshare “guaranteed”. If you have additional questions, the company encourages you to contact the company using the “Free Consultation” service whether through the “Live Chat” feature or by completing a client contact form accessible on the website.

Cost and how long is the process is always contingent upon the client’s case, so we did not find specifics which is a good thing. We cover length and cost later in this review.

Overall, the company website’s is decent in that the layout is simple and information is found easily. There is a nice balance of types of information and a focus on providing just enough information to the visitors of the site.

In addition to conducting an analysis of the company website, we also like to research to see if the timeshare company we are reviewing has additional websites or otherwise a web presence in addition to the standard reviews and company website.

While not linked from the company website, we discovered the company’s You Tube channel that has some informative videos along with a Facebook group that does have almost 4,000 likes and appears to have frequent, recent activity.

We did not find much information on Sean Chesser who helped co-found the organization other than according to the BBB and his LinkedIn profile, he also owns a landscaping company in addition to a company that sells blinds. It seems like he very much as an “entrepreneur” mindset.

Primo Management Group Reviews

We read many positive reviews about Primo Management Group. According to the reviews, many were successfully exited from their timeshare contracts and received frequent, friendly communication from the Primo Management Group team.

At the time of this review, we were not able to view any reviews on the Better Business Bureau (BBB) site.

When accessing their BBB profile, we received an alert stating that the business was currently updating its profile and that we would not be able to read any existing reviews.

This may mean the company is truly in process of updating the company profile or may have decided to remove the company profile all together.

If you check out the company’s YouTube channel, you will find a video titled, “New Video Regarding Timeshare Scams and the BBB” in which they describe how the BBB rating system is flawed. While it sounds like they are harshly criticizing the BBB, the person speaking in the video does describe some tips on how to spot scams whether through reviews or information on a company website and within the BBB. It is also worth noting that some of the customer testimonials on the company’s “Proof of Progress” page were from the BBB (circa 2018), the company definitely had a profile at one time.

While we are not able to view the company’s BBB rating and we may never see one, we did locate a profile on Business Consumer Alliance (BCA).

For our readers who may not be familiar with the BCA, BCA is a non-profit organization that started in 1928. They were formally known as the Better Business Bureau of the Southland. The company uses a sophisticated formula to provide a grade based on several factors such as government actions, length of time in business, complaint history, type of business, licensing information, advertising review and background information. A triple A (AAA) is the highest rating the BCA provides. The BCA currently rates Primo Management Group an A.

Primo Management Group has been a member of the BCA since February 2019 and the company has a 5-star rating (out of 5) based on 163 reviews and only 1 complaint. The company’s most recent rating and review was provided February 25, 2021.

Here is a review written by Jennifer Paluck.

She describes the “Owners Review” which is a tactic that timeshare developers use to entice timeshare owners to upgrade their existing timeshare for additional fees.

Primo Management Group has a Yelp presence and as of this review, the company has a 4.5-star rating (out of 5) based on 8 reviews.

We looked at the “1 star” and while many people complimented Primo Management Group on timely communication, this one person didn’t agree, however it appears that they person was still successfully terminated from their timeshare contract and never updated their rating.

We were not able to locate a profile for Primo Management Group on TrustPilot.

The company’s Facebook page does have “reviews” activated so we were we able to review. The company currently has a 4.9-star rating (out of 5 stars) based on 44 opinions (or reviews).

The most recent review at the time of our review is from February 18. In the review, the person mentions Primo Management Group will help if the person’s credit score dropped during the process of timeshare termination. We didn’t see any specific information on the company website that offers credit repair, but this is a common service that timeshare exit companies offer.

How Long is the Primo Management Group Process?

Under the company’s FAQ section on the website, the company states the process is “usually less than 12 months” but encourages people to call in for a free consultation as every situation is different.

A Yelp reviewer mentioned the time frame to be less than a year while a BCA reviewer stated they started the process in October 2017, and everything was finalized in September 2018. One person stated they were successfully released from their timeshare in less than 3 months.

Every case is different so it would be difficult to for any timeshare exit company to provide an exact time range for the client until the team understands the specifics of your case. Be wary of any timeshare exit company who does so and only use timeframes mentioned in reviews as a guideline.

Primo Management Group Cost for Services

There is no mention of cost on the company website, but we did find a few reviews that mentions the costs of services. The review below posted on Yelp, from March 2019 compared the costs to 1.5 years’ worth of maintenance. It is not clear if the reviewer had to pay up front or if this the person utilized escrow.

We encourage you to read through the reviews to gain more insight and understand that every case is different so while you may see mentions of specific costs, use the information as a guideline only.

Primo Management Group “100% Money Back Guarantee” and Concluding Thoughts

While Primo Management Group appears legitimate and provide great services to the company’s clients, we see in the multiple reviews that the company does ask for fees up-front. One reviewer on Yelp even mentioned “being apprehensive about paying an up-front fee.”

The promise of a money back guarantee is also prominently displayed on the company website’s home page and on the “About Us” page.

We like to recommend timeshare exit companies that offer an escrow payment option, so the exit company is not paid in full until after the timeshare is cancelled. No money is released to the timeshare exit company until the successful termination of the client’s timeshare contract. Learn more about escrow and why you should care here.

If you want to find out more about low up-front fee escrow payment options or timeshare exit companies, engage in our live chat or fill out our contact form.

Vacation Village is a timeshare resort developer that offers stays in some of the U.S.’s most popular vacation locations, including Orlando, Las Vegas, The Berkshires, and more. They are headquartered in Madison, NJ.

These destinations may be why you were drawn to join Vacation Village. But now, you may be considering selling or trying to cancel your timeshare. People often cite several reasons for wanting to get out of Vacation Village timeshare, including high maintenance fees and difficulty booking their stays. Whatever your reason, keep reading for advice and tips on how you can cancel your timeshare completely.

Vacation Village Timeshare Reviews

While looking into timeshare owners’ reasons for wanting to get rid of Vacation Village timeshare, we found a number of online reviews from the BBB, Consumer Affairs, and TripAdvisor. Across the board, these were from 1 to 3 stars at most, and included a number of significant complaints. The following are just a few examples of those reviews:

    • “We purchased a 5-day / 4-night VIP vacation from Vacation Village, after having it recommended by my parents (they are owners in this time-share nightmare). After multiple emails and phone conversations, we elected to spend the vacation at the Parkway location (Kissimmee, FL). Even with their excessive (outrageous) processing requirements – can’t check in before 4pm, must check out before 10am, must spend 3+ hours in a high-pressure sales lecture – we figured that we’d still have 2 full days to enjoy Disney. Not so. After accepting our money for a 5-day vacation, they changed it to a 4-day stay…without telling us. When we checked out on the 5th day, they had already charged our credit card for a ‘late check out’ fee. Do NOT stay with these criminals. Avoid them at all costs! Do not, under any circumstance, give them your credit card information. Please learn from our nightmare.” (TripAdvisor)
    • “When they called I purchased a $99.00 package, my life has been busy so I forgot about it, this was in 2019. They charged my card, I never used the vacation and now in 2022 they tell me no refunds and that I need to purchase a new package for $169.00. What a good scam and legal, wish I would’ve thought of it before they did.” (Consumer Affairs)
    • “Vacation Village is running a high dollar scam, I’m not sure how it is legal or how they stay in business. My husband and I bought a timeshare in 2018 and found out that we were told nothing but falsehoods during the sale. We spent almost 8 hours in a presentation that was supposed to be an hour long. A credit card was opened in our names WITHOUT our consent. Sales staff did not inform us of our right to cancel or major financial details like the interest rate or that our debt was about twice the amount of the purchase price that was agreed upon. There was no mention of all the extra fees that are charged on top of the outrageous amount we already pay. For all this trouble, can we even take a vacation? No! Nothing is ever available. We are just throwing money down the drain with Vacation Village.” (Consumer Affairs)
    • “We were promised that the reservation system was simple and flexible. Simple and flexible to them is having to book upwards of a year in advance. Being in the military, I simply don’t have the luxury of knowing my schedule that far in advance, but who really does?? Also, when we tried to refinance the high-interest loan they gave us with banks to get a lower rate, that’s when we found out that what we were sold as an asset to our family, turned out to have no value at all. The vacations are expensive, the fees are never-ending, and the customer service is abysmal. Be smart, when they approach you to take one of their presentations, turn your back and WALK AWAY!” (BBB)

Vacation Village Timeshare FAQs

  • Who owns Vacation Village Resorts?

Vacation Village is owned by a company called The Berkeley Group. You might also have noticed online that their timeshares are available through RCI.

  • Has Vacation Village been involved in any lawsuits?

Yes, there have been a few notable lawsuits involving Vacation Village. Leber v. Berkley Group Inc. was brought in 2011, based on claims of the company violating the Fair Labor Standards Act. It resulted in a class action settlement. Berkley Vacation Resorts, Inc. v. Sussman was a more recent lawsuit, in 2021, wherein the company sued a timeshare exit company owner.

  • Does Vacation Village have a deedback program?

Yes, in a sense. Contacting Vacation Village to see if they will take back your timeshare is an option. But this is only on the table if you are a new timeshare owner. That’s because you could be eligible for a process called rescission. In most states, rescission laws mean that new timeshare owners can return their timeshares to Vacation Village and get fully refunded. Since this is a state law, Vacation Village has to honor your request to rescind your timeshare purchase, and must take it back with no questions asked. The caveat is that rescission is only available for one to three weeks after you’ve purchased your timeshare. If you’re past this window, you will have to explore other options.

  • Is Vacation Village close to Disney World?

Believe it or not, this question comes up quite often. While the answer is yes, given the reviews noted above, you’d be better off booking a regular hotel if you’re headed to Disney World. There are several that are just as close, and that won’t put you in a no-win situation like a Vacation Village timeshare would.

Vacation Village Timeshare Exit vs. Resale

You may have heard that you can get rid of a Vacation Village timeshare by selling it on the resale market. While you can certainly try this route, there are many problems with it. The biggest obstacle is just how difficult it really is to get anyone’s interest, much less a buyer. If you go to eBay and look up “Vacation Village timeshare” right now, you’ll see that several of these timeshares are already posted for sale for just $1, and have zero bids.

This makes it all too apparent that Vacation Village timeshares are extremely difficult, if not impossible, to sell. If you do choose to go down this road, be careful of companies that want to charge you a fee (especially a high upfront fee) to “help” you do so. Instead, just stick to websites like eBay and Craigslist to sell your Vacation Village timeshare.

If you’d rather explore other options, consider what working with a timeshare exit company could do for you. In this situation, a third party – i.e. the company – gets in touch with the resort on your behalf, and works to cancel your timeshare for you and have your contract canceled. As long as you find a reputable company that does not require a high upfront fee, choosing this method is probably your best bet.

Working with a Timeshare Exit Company

Overall, when it comes to Vacation Village timeshare cancellation, you do have options. We have researched several timeshare exit companies that have solid reputations, and can potentially help you with your situation. All of our recommended companies use escrow for payment, so you can be sure they are trustworthy. Learn more about our recommended companies on this page.

What is Escrow and Why Does it Matter?

You might be wondering why escrow is so important. Escrow means that whatever company you work with only gets paid in full after your timeshare is out of your name. It means they do not demand upfront payments, and that they have extra incentive to do their best to get you out of your contract with the resort. You can learn more about escrow and why it’s important here.

Royal Holiday Club is a vacation club membership program based in Mexico. Their claim is that people who sign up to become members get access to exclusive offers at over 180 resort properties. These resorts are located in the USA, Mexico, and the Caribbean. It is speculated that the company has as many as 80,000 members in this club.

Royal Holiday Club actually has a bit of an interesting history. In 2008, ABC News did an investigative piece looking into the company’s sales practices. According to this report, Royal Holiday sought to bring in new customers and get them to attend timeshare sales presentations by offering free meals and special offers at the airports local to the resorts. But once those people attended those presentations, they were told they only had one day to sign up for the program; otherwise the offer would expire. One couple interviewed for the piece, Doug and Karin LaClair, reported being shown a suite during the presentation. However, when they redeemed their membership the first time, they were placed in a Motel 6 caliber room.

So if you’re seeking to cancel your Royal Holiday Club timeshare, you are definitely not alone. This kind of scenario – one filled with false promises – has proven to not be a rare one. We’ll explore more about that below.

Royal Holiday Club Timeshare FAQs

The following are some of the most frequently asked questions people have about Royal Holiday Club Timeshare / Vacation Club.

    • How much does it cost to be a member of Royal Holiday Vacation Club? According to the aforementioned ABC News story, “A typical member pays roughly $11,000 to join the club, plus a yearly fee of about $465.”
    • Who owns Royal Holiday Vacation Club? Royal Holiday Vacation Club is a subsidiary of a company called Park Royal Hotels and Resorts.
    • Can I cancel my Royal Holiday Vacation Club contract? Yes, but how you go about this depends on your situation. If you are eligible for rescission, it is easier to cancel directly with the resort. However, if it has been over 3 weeks, your road to cancellation may be more difficult. Keep reading to learn more about how you can work with a timeshare exit company to cancel your Royal Holiday Vacation Club timeshare.

Royal Holiday Club Timeshare Reviews

There are several negative experiences and complaints to be found when it comes to Royal Holiday Vacation Club and Royal Holiday Club timeshares.

  • “The Park Royal is a nice hotel. I have a major problem, however, with the Royal Holiday Club. They sell vacation club memberships at this hotel. We bought a membership in 1993. We traveled to Cozumel for the Christmas holiday in 2014 with our family of 13. The reservation department lied to us about the cost of the all inclusive fee for the resort. We ended up paying an additional $1232 american dollars for the children traveling with us. Member services at the Park Royal agreed to settle the dispute while we were at the resort while we were there, once we left they now refuse to honor the agreement. I can not get the member services manager to call me back or respond to email. Royal Holiday is dishonest and can not be trusted.” (TripAdvisor)
  • “We purchased a points membership in 2016 from the sales group stationed out of the Grand Park Royal Cozumel resort. The sales person explicitly pointed out clause 10 in the contract stating that the contract could be terminated by either Purchaser or Seller at his or her discretion. After submitting a written notification to the Corporate Office, all we get is you can’t cancel your contract. This appears to be in direct violation of what we were told. It’s stated right in the contract. We have been current in all payments up until present. All we are talking about now is the yearly maintenance payments. we notified them that we are forfeiting any accrued points and are not requesting any funds back.” (ComplaintsBoard)
  • “To be direct and to the point, my husband and I have paid for something and have received absolutely nothing in return. We have never been able to use it. Royal Holiday used unethical business practices to get us to sign an agreement with them. We were promised by this company that they would take over a previous timeshare that I owned with my ex-husband,however, it was not immediately taken over by Royal Holiday as they promised. I continued to get past due statements, and after several years and many disputes, we were finally rid of that previous timeshare. We have no desire to be connected with Royal Holiday and we have asked to be terminated.” (BBB)

We should note that, although the company has over 115 complaints with the BBB, it appears to somehow have a B+ rating. This does not at all change their track record, of course, nor does it change the fact that they are unaccredited. In addition to all of this, Mexico’s consumer protection agency, Profeco, reported over 1,800 complaints about Royal Holiday Club back in 2008. Clearly, there is little in the way of return on investment that you can expect with a Royal Holiday Club timeshare.

So what can you do if you are still saddled with one of these memberships?

Cancel Your Royal Holiday Club Timeshare Using Rescission

If you own a timeshare with Royal Holiday Club / Vacation Club and want to get out of your contract, the first thing you should do is get in touch with the timeshare company. That way you can find out if they offer any programs that will let you out.

You should know that, if you made the timeshare purchase within the past five days, you can legally rescind it for a full refund without any questions asked. This is a Mexico consumer protection law – all timeshare or vacation club purchases must be allowed to be fully refunded within five days of purchase. You should be able to find more information about rescission and its process among the documents you received when you bought your Royal Holiday Club timeshare.

Royal Holiday Club Timeshare / Vacation Club: Resale vs. Cancellation

If rescission isn’t an option because you’ve passed the 5-day mark, and you haven’t been successful getting directly in touch with Royal Holiday Club, you might be considering the option of timeshare resale. The resale market can be tricky to navigate, but if this is something you’re looking into, consider the following websites that will allow you to advertise for a low fee:

  • Ebay
  • Craigslist

However, you should be aware of how difficult it is to sell a timeshare or vacation club membership this way. Even people who list for $1 find that they often cannot sell their timeshares at all. You should also be cautious of timeshare resale companies who claim they can sell your timeshare, but then ask for an upfront fee before doing so. Typically this will just end with you paying the fee and still being stuck with your timeshare or vacation club membership.

Timeshare cancellation, on the other hand, occurs through a timeshare exit company. This is when a company gets in touch with the resort for you, often with lawyers at the helm, and puts sufficient pressure on them that they cancel your contract and all associated fees. While this process can take awhile, it can ultimately be more fruitful, and save you the trouble that comes with going the resale route. However, it is incredibly important to find a trustworthy timeshare exit company, since there are so many scams out there.

Find an Exit Company to Cancel Royal Holiday Club Timeshare / Vacation Club

How can you choose the right timeshare exit company to get out of Royal Holiday Club timeshare? You should always be sure to look for one with a track record of success, with a strong body of positive reviews, and with an excellent online presence. You should also be sure to find one that does not require upfront payments, and instead uses escrow. In fact, our #1 recommendation when choosing a timeshare exit company is to find one that offers an escrow payment option. We have analyzed several companies that have these qualities. You can learn more about our recommended companies on this page.

Why Escrow is Important When Canceling a Timeshare

We always recommend escrow because of what it implies for you and the timeshare exit company you choose. It means that the company does not get paid in full until the timeshare has been canceled and you’re completely satisfied. It also means that they have more incentive to do the job completely and well. Learn more about escrow and why it’s important here.

How TimeshareExitCompanies.com Can Help You

There are more options than ever before for people ready to get rid of Royal Holiday Vacation Club timeshare. You should know that it’s smart to contact the timeshare company first, before getting in touch with anyone else, to see what your options actually are. Once you’re sure where you stand with the company, it’s easier to move forward. And if Royal Holiday Vacation Club won’t help you, a reputable timeshare exit company may be able to help.

We created this website to help people like you find the right timeshare exit companies for their situations. If you want to schedule a consultation or learn more, get in touch today. You can do so by initiating the live chat, submitting the contact form on the right side of the page, or giving us a call at 833-416-8796.

GeoHoliday is a vacation club that offers timeshare memberships, and that claims to offer a credits-based system that gives members even more travel opportunities. They have about 4,500 different resorts that timeshare holders can travel to, including in Mexico, Europe, and Asia. Their claim is that this membership allows members to travel to a variety of locales, varying from the mountains to beaches. However, from what we have learned about GeoHoliday, your choices may not be as flexible as advertised.

If you’re here because you want to get rid of your GeoHoliday timeshare, this could be your reason why, or you could have another situation on your hands. Maybe you’re tired of the expensive membership and maintenance fees, or you’ve found ways to travel on your own for far less money. Maybe you’re just one of the many timeshare owners who’ve realized your timeshare was not truly an investment in the first place. No matter what you’re facing, you can keep reading to learn more about why people often find themselves wanting to cancel GeoHoliday timeshare, and how you can get started doing so yourself.

GeoHoliday Timeshare Reviews

We found several reviews from past customers speaking to their experiences with GeoHoliday. Notably, many of them were 1- and 2-star reviews, including with Yelp, BBB, and ComplaintsBoard. Among the most common complaints were issues with redeeming points, and constantly escalating maintenance fees. The following are a few examples of those reviews:

    • “THE most ridiculous timeshare out there. Not much to choose from, heavy fines for cancelling, even if you do so as much as a whole 90 days prior to arrival, and you even lose the points you used when you cancel!!!I spent 10,000 dollars plus financing interest, paid all my maintenance fees which went up almost every three years, (now is $550.00) for absolutely nothing. I just keep it so it won’t affect my credit. I wish there was a way to get rid of it 🙁 Unfortunately, the system won’t allow me not to put any stars, so I have to put the one star, but even that is way too much.” (Yelp)
    • “We purchased ten years ago and it was Geoholiday. Turned into Sapphire. Since we purchased (paid in full) all the rules have changed. Never have dates available unless you want to rent. Changed the points system so now the initial points we bought will not pay for anything. They lied about the points, said we could use them for Las Vegas anytime which is where we bought because that was our favorite. Also, they said we could vacation every year and transfer our points to save for big vacation which is a lie. The whole saw pitch was a complete lie with no way to use it now. Our points are basically useless and now they are trying to get us to pay for a gray card. We want out. We will pay the transfer fee to give it back but we want OUT!” (ComplaintsBoard)
  • One of the biggest regrets of my life is buying this timeshare. I have been paying thousands of dollars since 2009 and have never used any of my points. This company is a complete scam. (Facebook)

When it comes to the BBB, there have been 529 total complaints in the last 3 years, and as of 2022, GeoHoliday is unaccredited with them. All of this together paints the picture of a company that leaves people without much of anything to show for the money they’ve spent. With this in mind, here’s some more information you might want to know about GeoHoliday timeshares and their practices.

FAQs about GeoHoliday Timeshares

GeoHoliday has gone through a great deal of changes over the years, so it can be tricky to find background information on them. We did some research to help give you the big picture about GeoHoliday and their associated timeshare membership clubs. Some of the most frequently asked questions on the Internet about GeoHoliday timeshares are below.

    • What are my GeoHoliday points worth? Since GeoHoliday is part of RCI, we can say that their points are worth the same amount as RCI points. RCI Credit Card points are worth 1 cent each, on average. That means 10,000 RCI Credit Card points have a value of roughly $100. Of course, that said, many people have said GeoHoliday refuses to honor these points, so be sure to keep that in mind.
    • Is GeoHoliday known by any other names? Yes. We found that GeoHoliday’s offerings are listed under Sapphire Resorts as well as The Jockey Club. They are all part of the same Las Vegas-based timeshare ownership company, and part of the RCI network.
    • Has GeoHoliday been part of any lawsuits? Yes. We found one class action lawsuit that includes GeoHoliday as a party to the main defendant, Starpoint Resort Group (which is part of the Jockey Club). Brunton v. Starpoint Resort Group, Inc. was a 2011 case brought by former sales agents. While this case was not about timeshare ownership per se, it is worth looking into to get a better idea of how GeoHoliday operates.

Timeshare Exit vs. Timeshare Resale: an Overview

People who need to cancel a timeshare often find themselves wondering whether the resale market is a good option for them. But the truth about resale is that most timeshares and travel club memberships decrease in value by at least 50% after they’ve been purchased directly. If you check eBay for evidence of this, you’ll find GeoHoliday timeshares for sale for $1, with zero bids or buyers. This is simply because timeshare owners are usually willing to try and get rid of their timeshares as fast as they can, rather than wait for an offer anywhere near what they paid.

That’s part of the trouble with resale: unfortunately, demand is not remotely as high as the supply. This makes resale agents far less likely to engage with or help timeshare owners. You may have been told that it’s easy to go this route and find a buyer, but in fact, the opposite is true. If you’re only considering resale to get rid of your GeoHoliday timeshare, you will probably be stuck with it and your contract for the foreseeable future.

So how can you get out of this poor investment? You know that your timeshare isn’t at all what was promised. But you’re now part of a legally binding contract that GeoHoliday, in all likelihood, won’t help you get out of. There is the option of timeshare exit. This is when you work with a company who is experienced in this industry and have them get in touch with the resort to cancel the timeshare on your behalf.

When selling a timeshare membership – or giving it back – becomes impossible, this is a great route to explore instead. Reputable timeshare exit companies can serve and help you when you have no other options. But it’s important to learn about which companies have a track record of success. To learn more about the timeshare exit companies we recommend, you can visit this page.

Why Escrow is Important to Safe Timeshare Cancellation

One of the key qualities we look for in timeshare exit companies is whether or not they offer an escrow payment option. Escrow is crucial because it is a means of keeping your money safe, and ensuring it goes only to your timeshare being canceled. It keeps the company accountable to you and to the promises they made. Companies who use escrow do not get paid until you are free from your timeshare, it is no longer in your name, and are no longer responsible for any payments or fees.

Anyone can pay lip service to a money-back guarantee, but this in no way ensures that you get anything back if things don’t go as planned. Escrow is the best, most realistic way to move forward with timeshare exit. Learn more about escrow and why it’s important here.

When you’re ready to get out of your GeoHoliday timeshare for good, be sure to get in touch with our team. We can help you find the right solution for your situation.

So you’ve decided you’re ready to cancel your Bluegreen timeshare. You might have one or several reasons for wanting to do so – whether it’s because you’ve stopped vacationing like you used to, or you’ve had a major lifestyle shift. You should know that, no matter what your reasoning, you aren’t the only one wondering how to get out of Bluegreen timeshare. Keep reading to learn more about what your options are.

Bluegreen Timeshare Reviews

There are several reviews that speak to why people want to cancel their Bluegreen timeshares. The BBB, Consumer Affairs, and TripAdvisor pages for the company all include several 1-star reviews, including the following:

    • “If it’s possible to give 0 stars, I would. We were enticed to purchase a new ownership package, that seemed too good to be true! And of course it was. We sent a certified copy of our cancellation in writing as advised by Bluegreen within 10 business days. We were then told we had 30 days as new owners so we should be good to cancel. Then we called again to follow up on the status of our ownership- we were then told it had to be canceled within 5 days because we purchased a package out of WI. We have called Corporate, spoken to management and it took us over 2 weeks to reach an actual person willing to look up our account. We were advised by a Bluegreen manager to hire an attorney for cancellation, as we are too late. … DO NOT WASTE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY-NOT EVEN 1 CENT … We were misinformed and stories change every time you call and talk to someone different.” (BBB)
    • “We agreed to the Bluegreen promotion before the pandemic. Of course, we could not go during that period. Then I developed a painful back issue and my mother now has serious health issues. We cannot leave her for an extended period. Then we started getting threatening emails giving us a deadline to make a reservation. I asked, due to these unforeseen circumstances, if I could get a refund of the deposit. The person on the phone refused to listen. I told them to keep the money and assured them I would warn others of their pressure campaign and heartless business practices.” (Consumer Affairs)
  • “Blue Green Resorts is like any other timeshare resort developers out there. They exist solely to part you from your hard earned money, by hook, crook and any means necessary. They don’t care if you can afford their over-priced and undervalued units, they just want to get your money. … What I found out about Blue Green really frightened me. There is documented proof that the income and credit qualification form used at check-in is used to applied for a Blue Green credit card in your name, whether you want one or not. The weeks you buy are worthless. A quick search on Ebay shows you can buy some poor soul’s weeks at The Fountains for pennies on the dollar. I couldn’t believe it until I saw it for myself. Whereas buying directly from Blue Green, you are charged from 10-25K for the unit, then several hundreds to thousands per year for maintenance fees.” (TripAdvisor)

In addition to these reviews, well-known travel and finance blogger The Points Guy has an in-depth article about their practices and sales presentations. A quick search for “The Points Guy bluegreen timeshare” should bring it up. It’s worth a read, especially if you want to know more about the lack of value you get with Bluegreen timeshares. Overall, it’s clear that many people are in the same camp that you are probably in when it comes to this timeshare company.

Canceling a Bluegreen Timeshare

What you can do to cancel your Bluegreen timeshare depends on the details of your situation. If you purchased a timeshare in the last few days, you should proceed with your cancellation using state rescission laws. These laws typically allow people who own timeshares to rescind a purchase within the first few days afterward. If you adhere to the rules around these laws, Bluegreen will have no choice but to refund your entire timeshare purchase. While you won’t get cash back from this process, you will get a full refund. Since most timeshares decrease in value by around 50% after they’ve been purchased directly, this is the best route to go, if you’re able.

For those who are outside of the window of time dictated by rescission laws, it is possible to try and use the resale market to get rid of Bluegreen timeshare. However, if you owe any kind of mortgage on the timeshare, selling it will be nearly impossible. People who are in this situation should look into reputable timeshare exit companies that offer escrow as a payment option. You can learn more about escrow and why it’s important on this page.

FAQs about Bluegreen Timeshares

You are probably wondering, at this point, “What else should I know about Bluegreen timeshares?” Here are some of the most frequently asked questions about this timeshare company, which could help you make a decision about canceling a Bluegreen timeshare.

    • How much does a Bluegreen timeshare cost? While the cost of a Bluegreen timeshare annual fee depends on the type of membership you have, generally, the consensus is you can expect to pay anywhere from $800 and upward. Maintenance fees will depend on the kind of accommodation, so that would require a more specific listing search to determine.
    • Have there been any lawsuits against Bluegreen? Yes – a simple Internet search will show that there have been several lawsuits involving Bluegreen. One of the most notable was a 2017 class action lawsuit brought to Florida’s U.S. District Court, in which timeshare buyers sued Bluegreen for selling to them under false pretenses (Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc. and Bluegreen Vacations Corporation v. Timeshare Lawyers P.A., et al). A similar class action lawsuit was brought in 2018 (Burgess v. Bluegreen Vacations Unlimited, Inc.).
    • Who owns Bluegreen? As of 2021, Bluegreen is a wholly owned subsidiary of a holding company called BBX Capital Corporation. This includes all three of their branches: Bluegreen Vacations, Bluegreen Resorts, and Outdoor Traveler (which is marketed through Bass Pro Shops).

Can You Sell a Bluegreen Timeshare?

It can be challenging to sell your Bluegreen timeshare on the resale market. If you look into how well others are doing with this approach, you’ll probably find many owners trying to basically give away their Bluegreen timeshares on eBay for as little as $1. Oftentimes, timeshare owners who go this route even offer to pay for all closing and transfer fees, just so they can get rid of the timeshare. This certainly indicates that it’s not just difficult to sell a Bluegreen timeshare – it’s nearly impossible.

Timeshare Exit vs. Timeshare Resale: an Overview

As noted above, it can be incredibly difficult to sell a timeshare on the resale market. When it comes to going this route, value is everything, and if you find that your timeshare is worth little based on the research you do, it will be even harder to sell. Even if you look into working with a resale agent – which is how some owners successfully sell their timeshares – chances are you won’t find someone suitable (or with a great deal of interest) unless you have a high-value timeshare.

Timeshare exit, on the other hand, can be a better option; it means that a third party gets in touch with the timeshare developer for you, and proceeds to get you out of your contract. Choosing this method will require you to do some investigating. There are several companies out there that are little more than scam operations when it comes to canceling a timeshare. You want to be sure to find someone with a solid background in the industry, and with a great track record of successful cancellations. Find out more about our recommended companies on this page.

Is a Bluegreen Timeshare a Good Investment?

The short answer is no. Bluegreen, like any other timeshare, is not a good investment. Why is this the case? Because as soon as you purchase a timeshare, you start losing money. It’s not uncommon for timeshare owners to lose up to 90% of the initial price.

In fact, it is actually illegal in some states to claim that purchasing a timeshare is an investment. These kinds of laws exist in order to stop real estate agents from misrepresenting what a timeshare is. The fact of the matter is, if you can purchase a Bluegreen timeshare on eBay for $1, there’s no way that buying a Bluegreen timeshare directly from the developer for $10,000 could be a good investment for you.

Pay attention to which timeshare owners, developers, and sales agents try to reframe the question of whether a timeshare is an investment. They may try to tell you it’s an “investment in your happiness,” or something of that nature. While there is some truth to this statement, it’s little more than another sales pitch, especially since you can plan a fun vacation for you and your family without a timeshare. You could say the same thing about literally any other product.

About TimeshareExitCompanies.com

Our website is meant to help you find the right timeshare exit company for your situation. Our team does not sell timeshares, nor do we perform cancellations ourselves. TimeshareExitCompanies.com is simply here to give you the advice you need to get out of Bluegreen timeshare on your own. To schedule a free consultation, initiate the live chat (on the bottom right corner of the page), or submit a contact form.

Avoid Paying High Up-Front Fees

The TimeshareExitCompanies.com team recommends that you avoid working with any company that charges you an upfront fee. Even if they have a money-back guarantee, this in no way ensures that you will actually get a refund in the case they aren’t successful. Furthermore, it fails to hold timeshare exit companies accountable for doing well in getting you out of your timeshare. Instead, we encourage people to work with companies who have an escrow payment option.

How Escrow Payments Protect You

Using escrow involves a third-party holding account that keeps your money safe while a company cancels your timeshare. It means that, if they do not complete their service as promised, you will get your money back directly. This is important because not only does it offer you financial security, but it also gives the timeshare exit company incentive to cancel your timeshare. You can learn more about escrow and why it’s important here.

We have heard too many stories of timeshare owners who paid a resale or cancellation company upfront, only to realize months later that the timeshare is still in their name, and was never canceled at all. Don’t let this be you! Be sure the company you choose doesn’t demand any high upfront fees.

Timeshare Discharge is another company that may be able to help you get out of a timeshare. They are located in New Port Richey, FL, and have been in business for over 10 years.

Timeshare Discharge Website

Regarding both their website and social media pages, Timeshare Discharge has a fairly average online presence (at least, in terms of the typical timeshare exit company). Their website adheres to this pattern: starting with the Home page, the design and copy alike are very spare and basic. Judging from the language used, they work with lawyers in order to release people from timeshare contracts; their claims are being able to do so within 60 days, and “100% guarantee or you pay nothing.” Essentially the Home page gives a summary of the content across the rest of the website. In terms of grammar and quality, it’s a bit below standards, with a glaring typo in the main landing page image, which plays out in the rest of the copy and is a bit difficult to ignore.

The Process page seems to be pretty cut-and-dry. It explains the three steps of their timeshare exit process in simple terms. It also cites the different kinds of professionals that would work on a given case – meaning, it says that Timeshare Discharge works with specialists and lawyers to complete timeshare cancellations. This page also gives a lot of lip service to paperwork, but overall, it does not offer much in the way of specifics.

The Services page is also pretty spare. Like the title states, it notes Timeshare Discharge’s different services – timeshare cancellation, mortgage cancellation, tax preparation, and credit protection – while giving a general overview on what situations generally get people saddled with timeshares they do not need or want. There isn’t much in the way of information about the secondary services (meaning, everything that is not timeshare exit). There is also an FAQ page, as with many companies of this nature. This one is probably the most unprofessional, in that the drop-downs they use are very responsive, but the grammar is off and the information offered is vague.

Based on digging deeper to find more about this company, since there wasn’t much on the website (or Timeshare Discharge’s generally inactive Facebook page), it appears that they are part of another company called Fair Market Services. Both are located at the same address and owned by the same individual, Allen Johnson. The interesting piece about this connection is what Fair Market Services is known for, which is timeshare sales and rental. Their website is very clear about this, and limited to those services, making no claim to working with clients on timeshare cancellation. Needless to say, we thought this was quite interesting, given the claims that Timeshare Discharge makes.

Timeshare Discharge Reviews

Searching for reviews of Timeshare Discharge brought us first to the BBB page for Fair Market Services. There, they have middling feedback – 3.69 stars out of 5, and no accreditation. Their more recent ratings are the lowest (1- or 2-star reviews). A few notable comments included:

  • “Fair Market Services represented themselves as a resale agency for timeshares, and that my timeshare would sell quickly. Never got any offers at all. Now they recommended a discharge for $2800.00., which I can do myself for nothing. I do not recommend Far Market Services. They are misleading in their sales pitch.”
  • “I received many assurances from Don that my time share with Worldmark would be an easy sell, but received no offers in 13 months. AND NO REFUND. VERY DISAPPOINTED. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND. THEY THEN WANTED $2800.00 to discharge or exit, which I can do thru Worldmark at no charge. DO NOT RECOMMEND.”

They do have a few more positive reviews which also confirmed that this company is connected to Timeshare Discharge, including:

  • “Had a great experience with Allen at Timeshare Discharge. The process went quickly and now we don’t own our timeshare anymore. Thank you Allen!”

However, further investigation showed that ComplaintsBoard and TripAdvisor had more negative outcomes listed than positive. A few additional ComplaintsBoard comments were as follows:

  • “This company is horrible! All lies. I paid more than $1000 to sell and rent my membership of timeshare. Nothing happened for months. So, I tried to get refunded. But they insisted “No Refundable”. In the beginning, the sales agent told me that if another company sold my membership, they would refund the service charge. Actually, my membership was transferred by another company. I called and told this, but they just told me ‘No refundable’, again. Be careful, everyone!!!”
  •  
  • “Stay away !! they took my 700.00 dollars and i never heard from them again .all i have to say to people is, number 1 is, dot [sic] buy a timeshare to start with and then, dont use these people to try to sell it. either way you wasted alot of money.”

The TripAdvisor discussion on this company (as well as other, similar companies) stated the following:

  • “I contacted a firm called Fair Market Services, they are out of Florida. They resell timeshares. They want $699.00 to sell my timeshare, It was suggested I sell my timeshare for less than half of what I paid for it (if it sells), but I only have 13 years left on my timeshare.”

Ultimately, based on these claims, we have to evaluate Timeshare Discharge as a fraudulent operation that is tied directly to Fair Market Services’s timeshare resale operation. After charging customers exorbitant amounts to get them out of their timeshares, they relist these timeshares, starting the cycle all over again and profiting off of it.

Timeshare Discharge Cost

While specifics about costs were not listed on Timeshare Discharge’s website, aside from a free consultation, the reviews listed above cited a range of fees from $699 to $4000 for getting out of a timeshare. So if you decided to work with them, you could expect to pay an amount within that window to do so. That said, this appears to be a situation wherein the company requires upfront fees rather than using escrow to process payments. While this is not surprising, given Timeshare Discharge’s business model (as noted above), it remains that we never recommend working with a timeshare exit company that asks you to pay upfront. We always suggest finding one that uses escrow instead. You can learn more about why escrow is important on this page.

What to Look for in a Timeshare Exit Company

Given what we could find about Timeshare Discharge and their practices, it’s important that we note what you should look for in a timeshare exit company or law firm. Businesses like theirs are not uncommon in the timeshare exit industry – meaning, it’s easy to find companies that appear to be highly professional but don’t have a great track record.

So what green flags should you look for? What indicates that you’ve found a trustworthy timeshare exit company? To begin with, whatever company you choose should have a solid reputation, and they should also use escrow for payment. This means that the company does not get paid until your timeshare has been completely canceled. You can learn more about why escrow is important on this page.

A few other qualities you should look for in a timeshare exit company include the following:

  • An A (or higher) rating with the BBB, accreditation, and few (if any) complaints
  • Several years in business
  • A physical office address rather than a PO box
  • A professional-looking website
  • A written contract for any services rendered

There are several companies that can speak to having these qualities, and we are committed to researching them thoroughly and featuring them on this website. You can review a list of our recommended companies on this page. All of them have a great track record of success in getting people out of their timeshare contracts, and have proven themselves to be legitimate

Summary

To recap, Timeshare Discharge is an offshoot of a company called Fair Market Services, which unfortunately is anything but fair: they sell and rent timeshares after they have charged people high fees to “release” them from those properties. This is ultimately a scam and something we cannot remotely recommend.

That said, while scams are quite common when it comes to timeshare cancellation, there are several companies we have reviewed and can recommend when it comes to your situation. All of these companies have been thoroughly vetted, and use escrow for payment, so you can trust that you won’t owe them anything until they have come through for you. Again, you can learn more about those companies on this page.

Still have questions about this or another timeshare exit company? Feel free to get in touch with us. You can do so by giving us a call at 833-416-8796, initiating the live chat, or filling out the contact form on the right side of the page.

J&T Solutions is another timeshare exit company that may be able to help you get out of a timeshare. They are located in Destin, FL and have been in business for 5 years.

J&T Solutions Website

Starting with J&T Solutions’s online presence, they seem to have a fairly basic website. It is not particularly outstanding or unique in terms of design, but it is fluid and responsive, and easy to navigate. The content is solid as well as straightforward.

The Home page cites that: “We have partnerships with several companiesthat allow us to answer all of your travel needs.” This could imply that J&T Solutions only works with certain resorts and timeshare companies, so if you wanted to find out if they could help you, it’d be important to figure out which companies are included in this claim.

The About page offers a brief description of the company’s activities, and alludes to their having experience in the legal field and timeshare industry. The content is, again, clear and cohesive, and well-written. However, there is not much in the way of specifics about their process, or how J&T Solutions go about releasing people from timeshare contracts. This is interesting in light of their positive testimonials and reviews (the latter of which we will address later in this article). We should also note that the companies with which they supposedly have partnerships are not listed here (or elsewhere on the website), so prospective clients would have to schedule a consultation to learn more about that.

Their Timeshare Cancellations page does not say much more about their process. They talk about having a 100 percent guarantee for either canceling your timeshare or giving you a full refund – presumably in the case that they are not successful. They also refer to having several different options for dealing with your situation. However, it is all very vague, and overall typical of what the average timeshare exit company has on their website, so we would not say it’s a great source of information or means of determining whether J&T Solutions is trustworthy.

One thing that is clear after reading through the whole website is that they are specific about who they work with – meaning, they claim to have partnerships with several companies on their Home page, and on the Timeshare Cancellation page they note, “We do not handle every resort property.” So, of course, this is something to bear in mind if you are considering getting in touch with this company.

Additionally, all of that said, it is still not clear who these companies are, or how J&T Solutions enacts their overall timeshare exit process. This makes it difficult to evaluate how well they would serve you in releasing you from your timeshare contract.

J&T Solutions Reviews

In terms of online reviews, J&T Solutions is accredited with the BBB and has an A+ rating. There is one review – and zero complaints – listed on their BBB page:

  • “I was concerned about using any company to get ride of my timeshare. And I have been burned before. At my current stage with T&J Solutions they have been great. During the initial stages our representative answered our questions and phone calls. After we decided use T&J Solutions and paid there fee, the next stage went very smoothly. They asked for key documents and we provided them them in a reasonable amount of time. Our representative at this stage responded with-in 1/2 day. About 3 business day later the next person in process reached out to us and made sure everything was correct. We are still in the starting stages, but everything seems to be legit and T&J Solutions is honest company. As of today, i am glad that we are using them. I will keep blog/posting on my experience with T&J Solutions during the next steps.”

They also have a handful of positive Google reviews, all of which put them at five stars; one notable review is as follows:

  • “I Went to a seminar while on vacation with my mother in Destin, Florida. I was very impressed! We’ve looked at other companies similar to this, but J&T Solutions had the best pricing and they were by far the best I have come across and we felt more comfortable than we ever have. They even have an escrow option for the funds paid. Looking forward to not having to deal with this timeshare my mom and I have.”

Meanwhile, they also have five out of five stars on Facebook, with – again – a single review. While their reviews aren’t very active, the company itself appears to be quite active in terms of posting and sharing articles and other information.

Since there was so little information in terms of reviews and client experiences, we looked a bit more deeply into J&T Solutions’s official business information in an attempt to figure out who owns and operates the company. From what we could find, it appears that they are licensed in MO rather than FL, and owned by Tyler Soutee, who also owns Soutee Consulting Group and another timeshare exit company called Timeshare Breakup. However, neither of these companies have websites of their own, so we could not find further background information about J&T Solutions’s ownership, management, or timeshare-related expertise. (Timeshare Breakup has one BBB review, which doesn’t offer much information either, and is otherwise unaccredited.)

J&T Solutions Cost

Costs are not outlined on the J&T Solutions website. They also do not speak to a free consultation. However, many of the reviews, as cited, allude to their use of escrow for payment. While their website does not offer any information to confirm this, it does stand out as a good sign, if it is true. One of the main commonalities with the companies that we recommend is their use of escrow for payment. When a timeshare exit company uses escrow, it means that they do not get paid until you’ve been released from your contract and are completely satisfied with their work. To learn more about escrow and why it’s important, you can visit this page.

Advice on Avoiding Scams

One of the reasons we only recommend companies that use escrow is the amount of timeshare exit scams that exist. Because there are so many, it can help to know what to look for in order to find the most trustworthy companies. To avoid getting involved in a timeshare exit or any other kind of scam, here are a few tips to keep in mind:

  • Resist any pressure to pay for a service right away. A reputable company will never push you into working with them before you are ready. High-pressure sales tactics are red flags, and they indicate a business you want to avoid.
  • Ask about licensing, insurance, and identification with local businesses. To get clear about which local companies are legitimate, ask about licensing and insurance. You should also always check identification when it comes to anyone who will be dealing with your money and personal information.
  • Check the fine print and don’t believe everything you read. Most scams rely on common industry phrases to build trust, but they often fail to produce information that backs their claims. They can tend to exaggerate and make lofty promises as well. A responsible company will not do this; instead, they’ll give you details about how they will cancel your timeshare for you.

Summary

Given the lack of reviews and confusing information about J&T Solutions’s ownership, we cannot make a solid call as to whether or not they are trustworthy and worth working with to get out of your timeshare. Their use of escrow is promising, but further background on their process would be more helpful when it comes to evaluating them.

However, that said, there are several other companies who can certainly help you with your situation. As noted, all of these companies have been thoroughly vetted, and use escrow for payment. You can read more about those companies on this page. And if you still have questions about how to go about getting out of your timeshare, you can get in touch with us. Give us a call at 833-416-8796, fill out our contact form, or initiate the live chat to get started today.
