Bluegreen Points Package Sold in Five Months After Three Years Going Nowhere

By the time we called JP Mutual Management, my husband and I had been trying to sell our Bluegreen Vacations points package for just over three years. We had listed it on every resale site we could find. We had priced it at what the forums said was fair. We had responded promptly to every inquiry, only to watch each one go cold after one or two messages. We were not desperate people — we had simply run out of ideas. A coworker of mine mentioned that her parents had sold a timeshare through JP Mutual Management and had specifically worked with a consultant named Christopher Newton. She said her parents had been in almost exactly our position — months of fruitless listings, a points-based product that nobody seemed to want — and Christopher had turned that around in less than five months. I called the next morning. Christopher answered promptly, which I noted immediately. Our first conversation lasted almost an hour. He asked questions I had never been asked before: what my ownership tier was within the Bluegreen system, what my historical booking behavior looked like, whether I had any outstanding club fees, and what my expectations were around pricing. He was not treating this as a generic listing. He was trying to understand exactly what I was selling so he could connect it with the right buyer. He explained that Bluegreen resales were a specific segment with its own buyer profile — typically families looking for flexible vacation options at mid-tier price points, often first-time timeshare buyers or people who had rented Bluegreen vacations and wanted direct ownership. He had active relationships with buyers in that category and believed my ownership would be an attractive option at the right price. Three weeks after our first call, he had a buyer showing serious interest. Five months after we signed with him, the sale closed at $33,400. The transfer was clean. The documentation was handled entirely by the JP Mutual team. Three years of frustration. Five months with Christopher Newton. I wish I had made that call years earlier.
