Timeshare Resales - How to set your asking price
Realize that you are in competition for the buyer's money with every seller on the
Internet.
If you are serious about selling your timeshare we strongly suggest that you
take the time and effort to do a little research, it will make all the difference,
and here are some suggestions to help you:
1. Get on the net and go to Google
or Yahoo and put your resort name in their
search box.
You will get a good idea of what other sellers are ASKING
This
does not mean that what they are asking is what they sell for because timeshares
generally sell for less than the asking price. The lowest prices you find
are what you are looking for, if you want to be competitive to other sellers,
because buyers obviously pick off the bottom prices, not the top prices.
2. Find out from your home resort what the current selling price is for a unit
identical to yours. Realize that the developer price is generally far higher
than resale prices, but the developer price will give you an idea of the extreme
top end of what a typical timeshare would sell for on the resale market.
the resale market is a completely different arena than the arena enjoyed
by the developer.
3. Your asking price should fall somewhere between the lowest
price you find from other sellers, and the developer's price, depending upon
how quickly you want to sell. A caveat is that if you price yours only a little
bit too high, it may not sell. If you have a Premier Ad on our website, you
