As an owner of a time share (in Orlando Florida), week 26 which is the WEEK of JULY 4th in Orlando at West Gates "The Lakes", right near Sea World Orlando.
How often do we use this actual unit? Only ONCE since we've owned it. However, we have exchanged it for some GREAT vacations, in many other places!
The key to buying a time share is this:
- Getting a Great week (Like 4th of July week)
- A great location that's EASY to exchange, sought after, a great place to visit.
- A community that has lots to do for the kids, activities for adults, and says "FUN is here at the resort" (you don't even have to leave).
- Choose an area that is considered "RED" which means it's peak season for that destination.
- Ideally in an area, and at a resort, where people visit from all over the world visit (find out when those 'times of the year are'
- Do your HOMEWORK! Research well the area, company and location as well as when that area gets the MOST visitors.
- Nice Facilities, with GREAT rooms, that people will feel comfortable in.
- Get ownership with a DEED (vs. 30-40 year ownership concept ~ what Disney offers)
These things will make "your week" and location easy to exchange for where-ever you want to go... ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD!
Once your time share is paid off, you only have minimal taxes and maintenance for a week of ultra fun on your vacation!
So tell me:
- Do you own a Time Share?
- Would you or Have you ever, considered the purchase of one for your families vacation options?
- Where would you buy? or Do you own at? (the place)
- All in all, what's your OPINION of these?
If you want more information on Time Shares, or are considering owning one, call me because I have connection for your in Orlando that can give you a tour at no cost or obligation and a free night or possibly even a full weekend here!
