May 31st 2018 Posted by: SellMyTimeshareNow SMTN Category: For Buyers, For Owners

Advice for Timeshare Owners Looking to Advertise Their Unit at the Right Price

Similar to regular real estate, timeshares have fair market values depending on a variety of specific characteristics, and it’s often best to stay within those price range parameters to sell a unit in a timely manner. For those who have been searching for guidance on how to value timeshares for resale, our team would love to help.

To start, SellMyTimeshareNow wants our customers to know this important, specific truth about the timeshare they purchased from resort developers: you’re not likely to make back what you paid for it. It’s a frustrating reality, but it’s one we express to all who contact our specialists. Unlike the regular real estate market, timeshares do not have the same monetary appreciation you will find with houses, condominiums, and townhouses. It can be helpful to understand more about the market and what you could potentially list your unit for. Here are just a few tips for finding a ballpark value:

1) Collect as much information about your timeshare as possible

This information includes and is not limited to specifics about your resort and unit type, ownership information, and potentially other small details regarding your timeshare. The more information you know, the easier it will be to narrow in on a good value. Here is a list of factors that will help you determine your advertising price:

  • Resort Name and Location
  • Brand Affiliation
  • Unit Type and Size (Number of Bedrooms/Bathrooms)
  • Maximum Occupancy
  • Week Type (Fixed, Floating, Points)
  • Timeshare Season
  • Usage Frequency (Annual, Biennial, etc.)
  • Type of Ownership (Deeded, Right To Use, etc.)

2) Browse secondary marketplaces for listings of similar units

One of the best parts about the Internet is that you have access to so many websites that offer similar services. Websites like SellMyTimeshareNow can help you learn more about your potential timeshare value by using search features to find similar units for sale at the same resort. You can specialize your search by all of the same information you have gathered about your unit above to gage how competitive the market is. From here, you can get a decent vision for how much you might want to price your unit.
