There are many companies, particularly on the internet, offering Villa del Palmar Timeshare Resales. It is difficult to know if these agents are offering a genuine product, particularly as The Villa Group does not endorse the resale of their units on the Internet. It would be wise to carry out a little research into the operator before buying a resale timeshare or reselling your unit.
It is important to know about the possible scams involved with timeshare resales, and there have been a number of fraudulent offers regarding the resale of Villa del Palmar units. It is worth noting that these resale scams have NOTHING to do with The Villa Group or the sale of genuine timeshare units during Villa del Palmar timeshare presentations.
Beware Villa del Palmar Timeshare Resale Scams
A common timeshare resale scam happens when owners are considering selling their timeshare, perhaps to buy another timeshare property or because they inherited a timeshare. There are some companies that charge an upfront fee for timeshare resales and then appear to be unable to sell your property. They keep your money and never sell your timeshare.
Another example of how Villa del Palmar timeshare owners have been scammed in the past is by an offer that is too good to be true. Happy timeshare owners receive a phone call or a letter telling them that there is a buyer interested in their Villa del Palmar unit. If the offer is good most people would consider selling, knowing that they could buy another unit with the money. The trick is that owners have to pay an introduction fee and then the buyer suddenly pulls out and your money is gone.
Alternatives to Villa del Palmar Timeshare Resales
Rather than selling your timeshare if you are no longer interested in returning to the same place, you could swap your Villa del Palmar unit for another of The Villa Group’s destinations: Cancun, Puerto Vallarta, Cabo San Lucas and Loreto. Alternatively, you could join a vacation club, like Interval International, RCI or UVC.
You could also rent out your Villa del Palmar timeshare unit, which could actually make you a profit and still give you the option to enjoy your property now and again.
Do not let their wonderful words lure you away, read the contract before signing, the contract clearly estates that any verbal promises made to the buyer that are not on the contract are invalid and that the purchasing of a membership at Villa del Palmar is not a financial investment, it only other way of saving for future vacations, it also states that if you wish to purchase the membership for the solid purpose of renting for profit, that you should reconsider your purchase of the membership.
