Owning a timeshare usually refers to owning a designated parcel of time for sharing vacation property (usually a week or more each year). A timeshare property can be something as common as a condominium or as exotic as a private jet or yacht. Here is how to resell or rent your timeshare without investing with the original property developer.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging

Things You’ll Need:

  • Computer with internet and email.
  • Timeshare Resale and Rental Websites such as: http://www.sellmytimesharenow.com/

Step1
Use your computer and the Internet to find the timeshare resale and rental website: http://www.sellmytimesharenow.com/ Then read all FAQS and information on the homepage that pertain to timeshare resale or rental.
Step2
If you wish to resell your timeshare first click on "Sell My Timeshare" in the right hand column of the homepage. Then fill out all information including your email. If you do not see the name of your timeshare resort in the "Resort" list then select "Other - Not On List" and click on the "Sell it Now! Click Here" button.
Step3
Next submit all information requested by the website. Remember your resort has the 'first right' to purchase the property, if they waive their 'first right' then you can proceed with the sell. After all business is completed, it will take 6 to 10 weeks to close the sale.

on 6/27/2008 Another good place to sell or buy a timeshare is ebay. They are listed in the real estate section. Good article, I enjoyed reading it.

on 3/2/2008 I guess we would also need: "A timeshare we own" ?
Was thinking this might show how to get into one for next to nothing - I am running into some that are fairly cheap, plus give great perks. Thought maybe you'd found a way to do those for free :) But still a great post - sent it to my sister and Mom who both own timeshares!
