Charitable Transfer Worked Perfectly
Marriott Vacation ServicesI 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.
Frustrating Experience
Marriott Vacation ServicesI worked with this company for approximately 17 months to complete my timeshare resale. The initial consultation took about 3 weeks, during which they reviewed my ownership documents and explained their 2-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 17 months instead of the 4 months they initially quoted. I'm still waiting for resolution after 17 months and have filed complaints with the BBB. Total cost: $4900 (higher than the initial quote of $1600). I cannot recommend this company based on my experience.
