What is my Timeshare worth & what price would it sell it for?
If you are considering selling your Timeshare, the obvious first question anyone asks is "What's it worth"?
Unfortunately this answer is going to be different for every single owner. However with this article and owner can learn to determine the price and value of your Timeshare on the resale market for free!
The sad truth is that most timeshares only sell for between 0 and 10% of their original retail purchase price. If you want to know more about why that is the case check out our article here: Cold Hard Facts about Selling your Timeshare
However getting a good estimate on the value of your timeshare is fairly easy and you can do it all online!
Step 1: Pretend you are a buyer for your own timeshare!
If you are looking to sell your timeshare, pretend you are a buyer for your timeshare and see exactly what current resale ads exist for the resort/points/etc you own! If you can find 20 resale listings for your XYZ Resort timeshare all offered for $1 on TUG/ebay etc, then your chances of finding a buyer if you ask hundreds or thousands of dollars are slim to none!
Step 2: TUG Listings and Sales History Records
TUG has thousands of active resale listings for timeshares! Browsing the TUG Marketplace will show you current asking prices, and TUG also provides a detailed Sales History section on each and every Timeshare Resort Review page that allows members to view a list of all SUCCESSFUL resale and rental transactions TUG has recorded for that resort!
These entries are automatically updated with successful resale and rental listings within the Timeshare Marketplace! This combined with the entries from some very hard working TUG volunteers and their careful tracking of EBAY completed listings and other popular timeshare resale sites or brokers, the TUG sales history database now gets hundreds of new entries each month...it has become a leading source for owners to see what Timeshares have sold and rented for in the past!
This of course is just one of the features provided to TUG members with their membership! an invaluable tool in finding out what your timeshare is worth! To look at other sales history records, you can go here to search for your resort:
