Selling a timeshare is a relatively simple process, provided that the seller puts in some preliminary effort and spends some time developing a strategy. With just a bit of work, the timeshare can soon be the partial property of an energetic, new owner.
Preparation for Sale
At the outset, obtain and review timeshare documents, such as a purchase agreement or contract.
Check to see if there are any restrictions or conditions for selling the timeshare. For example, there may be a "right of first refusal," which is the right of the original seller of the timeshare or resort to buy the timeshare. In addition, research the selling prices of similar timeshares. Check local real estate records, the resort's records and real estate broker records.
Advertising Strategy
Next, determine where to advertise. If your timeshare is highly desired by people living in another region, be sure to include advertising in that area. In addition, check into whether the timeshare's resort has advertising options, such as an online site or a newsletter. In addition, visit timeshare sales Websites, such as www.SellMyTimeshareNow.com.
Photographs and Descriptions
Take the best possible photographs of the timeshare. Include all seasons, if possible. Hire a professional photographer to provide the pictures. Also, determine if there is a target consumer and if so, include photographs and descriptive information which will appeal to that particular person. For instance, if the person would enjoy water sports and your timeshare includes these activities, be sure to highlight this information.
