When I first started in this business, I immediately experienced the sort of scams plaguing the timeshare industry. It was during my first weekend, while I was handling a Pueblo Bonito timeshare membership being transferred. I asked the girl at the front desk to make several copies of the contract, when she said Oh, that is a great resort. I asked if she owned a timeshare, to which she replied Oh no, my boyfriend and I just went online, and we rented a place for fifty bucks a night. At that moment, I realized I was in a much-needed industry. People dont really need timeshares, and they are getting scammed big time.
In the years since, I have seen countless such cases of owners being ripped off. All the customers that come to Safe Hands Transfers are skeptical, and understandably so; they have been cheated by their timeshare company, listing companies, and in some cases even by other owners and lawyers who gave bad advice. So when these people come to me, I pay close attention to what THEY tell me.
A short while back, I met a man in Columbia, MO who had $6,300 in annual maintenance fees. He had over a million points that he could use, but the predicament was that he had emphysema and had not been able to travel for a few years. As such, he was paying over $500 per month for something that has zero value to him or anyone else. He looked us up on the BBB and did some rental market research, as well as resale market research as we sat there at the table.
He discovered that he would be overpaying his vacation every year, if he did use every point available to him, instead of just renting a vacation condo (aka timeshare) through Expedia or Orbitz, or any number of internet travel sites. He also saw that his resort had an equivalent batch of points for less than $5 on eBay. It had no bids on it. He determined that his timeshare was therefore valueless to him and to the impersonal forces of the free market economy.
Spanning the years, I have met people who have done the homework. This includes Senators, state Attorney Generals and other prominent figures. Very intelligent and educated people agree that there is no reason to own a timeshare, and that anyone buying a timeshare today is being ripped off, scammed, and sold a lie.
Whether people own a timeshare in Mexico that has a real expiration date, or a perpetual contract with Ultimate Escapes or BlueGreen, they need not be mired anymore. Safe Hands Transfers has been helping hundreds of timeshare owners every week, thousands every month!
