Sell My Timeshare NOW Says FL Attorney General Is Making the Right Moves

Sell My Timeshare NOW, a leader in timeshare resales and timeshare rentals, supports Florida Attorney General as he works to increase consumer awareness about timeshare scams.

Dover, NH - March 12, 2008 -- Florida's Attorney General, Bill McCollum has stepped up his focus on consumer education, targeting scams in timeshare sales as among the top ten most problematic areas. His timely actions have drawn the support of the timeshare resales and timeshare rentals advertising company, Sell My Timeshare NOW.

Jason Tremblay, CEO of Sell My Timeshare NOW, says, "Timeshare resales offer a great way to own affordable vacation property and they give timeshare owners better control of when and how they buy, rent, or sell timeshare. But people must make informed decisions about the companies they use to help them sell."

In conjunction with National Consumer Protection Week, the Attorney General of Florida (the state that leads the nation in both timeshare units and timeshare sales) identified timeshare sales as an area in which better consumer education is essential. Recommendations from the Attorney General's Office for improving consumer transactions when selling timeshare include selling timeshare by-owner or selling through a licensed real estate broker. McCollum's recommendations are intended to protect timeshare owners who want to sell timeshares from potentially dealing with unethical companies that promote themselves as timeshare sellers but do little or nothing to market the sale of individual timeshare units or weeks.

Sell My Timeshare NOW, a recognized leader in timeshare resales and timeshare rentals, recommends that people who prefer to handle their own timeshare sale work only with an established timeshare advertising and marketing company that can prove its ability to attract a large number of prospective timeshare buyers and timeshare renters. They suggest when selling timeshare by owner that you use a timeshare resales advertising and marketing company that can clearly identify for you: (1) what steps it takes to attract timeshare buyers; (2) how it matches buyers and sellers; (3) and what services the timeshare seller pays for and which ones fall to the timeshare buyer.

When working with a licensed real estate broker, Sell My Timeshare NOW points out that you gain the advantage of a broker who is commission motivated and that you pay no fee until your timeshare actually sells. Jason Tremblay explains, "Different solutions are needed for timeshare sales, depending on the circumstances of the particular property. A licensed timeshare broker, such as our sister company Timeshare Hot Deal, is the best choice for some transactions, while others can successfully be by-owner timeshare sales where a timeshare advertising company assists the seller. Either way, the consumer must be sure he is working only with reputable timeshare companies that have a proven track record."
