How Can I Determine the Resale Value of My Timeshare?

Whether due to mounting fees, an inability to use their interest, or some other factor, many timeshare owners eventually reach a point where they wish to get out from under their obligations. Inevitably, should this time come, owners will look to a few different solutions – including the timeshare resale market.

This is a logical impulse! After all, countless consumer goods retain significant aftermarket value, and can be bought and sold on a thriving, easily accessible secondary market. Ideas that come to mind include cars, boats, art, furniture, and other valuable goods.

But is the same true for timeshares? Do they retain resale value? And, if so, this beggars another question: “How can I determine the resale value of my timeshare?”

Our own Michael Finn recently took on this common consumer FAQ in a video interview.

Here’s what he had to say:

And here’s a transcript of his remarks:

“There is an easy thing that you can try.

Number one, get ahold of your maintenance fee statement, and get an idea how much you paid last year for your maintenance fees. Then go on a travel site: Travelocity, Expedia, whatever one you like. Find a comparable resort similar to yours, and see what it’s going to cost to stay in that resort for a seven-day period, what the advertised price is.

Compare that to your maintenance fees. If they’re pretty close to the same amount of money, that pretty well tells you that your resort probably doesn’t have much residual value, because you can have a comparable vacation experience without spending any upfront money.”
