Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Mississippi
Time Share Maintenance Fees
I purchased a time share Condo in 1977 for cash. I have paid my Maint fee for over 30 years but never have used the property. The annual Maint Fee has grown to over $400,@year. I have spent a lot of money to list this property for sale. I have also contacted the company for relief by them taking back the property for free. What can happen to me if I just refuse to pay the annual fees anymore.

Have an attorney read your contract. Also look at the following 4/3/02 CNNMoney article
