Is the maintenance fee for your timeshare due? Now is the time to get help and look at your choices.
When you buy a timeshare for the first time, it is easy to get excited about the promised vacations and nice rooms that come with it. But as time goes on, many people find themselves in a situation they are all too familiar with they are paying for something they are not using and keep meaning to fix it but never do. If this sounds like you, now is the best time to look at your timeshare situation and think about what you can do.
The yearly maintenance fee looms.
The end of the year is fast approaching which means that many timeshare owners need to pay their yearly maintenance fees. These fees are often in the hundreds or even thousands of pounds, which is a lot of money. If you do not use your timeshare very often or at all, it can feel like a burden, a steady reminder of a promise that doesn’t make you happy or give you value. Right now, before you send that payment, you should really think about some important things.
What Do You Really Own?
It is very important to know the details of your timeshare ownership. Timeshare agreements can be hard to understand legally, and the rules for who owns what can be very different. Do you have a set week at a certain property, or do you need to book ahead of time for a floating week? Are you a part of a system based on points that lets you use different network properties? Or is it a share of ownership? In each of these situations, your rights and responsibilities as an owner will be different.
If you are not sure what you own or how your timeshare ownership is set up, now is the time to talk to a professional. The expert team at Sarah Waddington Solicitors help timeshare owners understand their legal situation every day. We make it clear what you signed up for and what your options might be going forward. We often see timeshare owners who do not own what they believe they own or what they were told they own. Now is the time to find out exactly what you own and what your future options are.
Are you getting your money’s worth?
You should also think about whether you are getting good value for your money. If you do not use your property often, the costs can quickly become greater than the benefits. They may have changed the way you travel, or you may have found more open and cost-effective ways to take a vacation. The resort might not be as nice as it used to be, or you may have lost interest in the place. No matter what the reason is, if your property no longer fits your needs, you should think about what else you can do.
What can you do?
You have a few choices for becoming timeshare free, but it can be hard to figure out which is the best option. The first thing you should do is talk to a team who are experts in this area of law. Sarah Waddington Solicitors can look over your contract carefully, tell you what your rights and duties are, and help you decide what to do next.
You could sell your property, but there are a lot of things that can make the resale market tough. You could also try to work out a way to leave the contract. Each company is different, and the routes/ options are not always easy.
You could also donate your property, but this can be hard to do, especially if there are ongoing fees involved. For some, walking away may be the best thing to do, but this should be considered very carefully because it could have legal and financial effects.
This is why we want you to get in touch with us so you can talk about your options with professionals and get the right help.
Why Now?
Since your maintenance fees are due soon, now is a great time to think again. Instead of paying for something that isn’t enjoyable anymore, use this chance to get professional help and make a smart choice about your future. Sarah Waddington Solicitors can help you through the process, making sure you know your rights and make the best choice for your situation, whether you decide to keep your Timeshare Ownership or cancel it.
