Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Florida

Re: Time-share abandonment

Unless your initial contract prohibits you, try selling your share of the time share, contact a realtor or advertise....or just give it to a friend or family member.

My office also offers flat rate pricing and free consultations, for additional information please visit my firm's website at www.AlleghenyAttorneys.com or by calling my office at 412.731.0865.

Re: Time-share abandonment

I have seen advertisements for any number of firms that purchase timeshares. I would suggest that you do some research and attempt to sell the property and get some of your money out.

Re: Time-share abandonment

See previous answer. Or you can give it away. Where is it located?

Just a bit more info....there is a Century 21 division that specializes in timeshare resales. If you place the term in Google you will get over 500,000 sites. Check out the first several pages and you should be able to find a legitimate site or speak with a realtor in the area in which the timeshare is located and you may be able to list it with them. There is usually a buyer for everything. You have already paid for this year, so you have lots of time to market the unit. Frankly, I am surprised that the Seller will not take back the unit.
