How Timeshare
Works
Timeshare developers sell vacation ownership interests
typically in either one-week intervals or as packages
of points that can be used to reserve resort accommodations.
Members share in the occupancy rights of a development
and therefore pay an annual maintenance fee after
the initial purchase.
Why
Own a Timeshare?
With vacation ownership, consumers have the opportunity
to purchase condominium-style accommodations at
quality resorts offering an array of amenities
in popular domestic and international destinations.
Millions of owners have found timeshare's spacious
floor plans and home-like amenities very attractive
when compared with traditional hospitality products.
Timeshare amenities
rival those of top-rated resort properties and
may include children's activities, swimming pools,
tennis, Jacuzzi, golf and bicycles as well as
spa and exercise facilities. Other features may
include boating, skiing, restaurants and equestrian
facilities on-site or nearby.
Purchasing
a Timeshare
When purchasing a timeshare, buyers may pay cash,
use a credit card or use the loan services of
a finance company. The cost of a timeshare depends
largely on location, the unit size and season.

$12,000-$14,000.
Types of
Timeshare Ownerships
Today's timeshare industry offers numerous purchase
options to meet consumers' desire for vacation
variety and flexibility, the most common:
