Write ReviewCharitable Transfer Worked Perfectly
I used this company's charity transfer program to dispose of a timeshare I inherited. Since I had no interest in keeping it and the resale value was essentially zero, donating it made sense. The process took 12 weeks from start to finish. Weeks 1-2: Consultation and document review. They verified the timeshare was eligible for donation. Weeks 3-6: Coordination with the receiving charity and preparation of transfer documents. Weeks 7-10: Resort approval process for the ownership transfer. Weeks 11-12: Final signatures and confirmation. Total cost: $1,500 flat fee plus I got a tax deduction for the donation.
The process was straightforward and well-explained. The receiving charity was legitimate and the tax documentation was handled professionally. My case manager was responsive and knowledgeable.
Not Worth the Money
I worked with this company for approximately 7 months to complete my timeshare deed-back. The initial consultation took about 3 weeks, during which they reviewed my ownership documents and explained their 3-phase process in detail. Communication dropped significantly after the first month. Despite multiple attempts to get updates, I often went 2 weeks without hearing anything. The process took 7 months instead of the 5 months they initially quoted. I'm still waiting for resolution after 7 months and have filed complaints with the BBB. Total cost: $1800 (higher than the initial quote of $2000). I cannot recommend this company based on my experience.
Very little went well in this process. The initial sales pitch was convincing but the follow-through was severely lacking.
Regret Signing Up
I worked with this company for approximately 3 months to complete my timeshare resale. The initial consultation took about 3 weeks, during which they reviewed my ownership documents and explained their 3-phase process in detail. Communication dropped significantly after the first month. Despite multiple attempts to get updates, I often went 3 weeks without hearing anything. The process took 3 months instead of the 4 months they initially quoted. I'm still waiting for resolution after 3 months and have filed complaints with the BBB. Total cost: $2500 (higher than the initial quote of $1700). I cannot recommend this company based on my experience.
