Inheriting a Timeshare
Written by Nelli Margolit
Inheriting a Timeshare At sales presentations, one of the advantages often highlighted is that a timeshare is a piece of property that can be passed on to heirs. And this is indeed true. A timeshare, like any other asset, can be inherited, meaning heirs receive both the rights and the obligations — including annual fees and legal responsibilities connected with ownership. To formalize the inheritance, the heirs must go through the official inheritance procedure in accordance with either a will or inheritance law. It is important to note that heirs may also refuse such an inheritance by submitting an official…

Written by Nelli Margolit
Several dozen families have recently decided just that — reaching out to us to help them restore their timeshare, lost due to unpaid maintenance fees, with the least possible expense. Why is this important? If you have an active timeshare, you are free to use it — something that has become particularly valuable now.

Timeshare Tuning: How to Fine-Tune Your Timeshare to Make It Perfect
Written by Nelli Margolit
From time to time, we hear people say: "We’ve travelled enough with our timeshare. It’s been wonderful — we were very happy, we travelled a lot. But now, we vacation differently." And it’s not always because they’ve bought a second home in Italy, Spain, or Cyprus over the years — something that usually puts a pause on global travel for just a couple of years. Often, after two or three years, these happy owners of a seaside or lakeside property find themselves combining extended stays in their second home with one- or two-week trips to other countries, and suddenly their…

The role of famous Hotel Groups and Brands in the Timeshare Industry
Written by Nelli Margolit
One of the prospects for the development of the timeshare industry lies in expanding the participation of hotel groups, which is significant today and has serious growth trends. Hotel groups have almost initially joined the timeshare system as they are the main champions of creating a loyalty system. Timeshare from the point of view of loyalty is its most extreme form, since the purchase of long-term ownership of a vacation within the system of a specific resort or within a group of resorts is actually a vote with a tourist's dollar for a specific hotel complex and for the brand…

GETTING YOUR MONEY BACK FOR A TIMESHARE: Selling a Timeshare Through a Third Party, Using Intermediaries: How Specialised Agencies Handle Timeshare Sales
Written by Nelli Margolit
Timeshare resale agencies are independent entities that aim to profit from facilitating transactions between timeshare owners, typically private individuals, and potential buyers. Their operations closely resemble those of real estate agencies, with one key difference: they do not arrange viewings of the properties for buyers. This is because potential buyers usually have prior experience with the resort in question or already own a week or points there. These resale agencies do not conduct presentations or employ primary sales techniques; instead, they work exclusively with buyers who are already familiar with the timeshare system. After receiving a request from a potential…
