First time Redweek member here and could use your advice. Two years ago my sister and I bought a timeshare at The Grandview in Las Vegas but haven't been able to use it. My sister lost her job a year ago and now the company I work for is going under, we live in the Caribbean and the exchange rate is killing us. We have tried selling our timeshare with timesharesonly.com and sellmytimesharesnow.com but to no avail. They have just taken our money up front and you don't get any feedback. The maintenance fees are not up to date. My question is do we have any other options? At this point we just want it off our hands we don't need to get any money from it. Thanks

First and foremost, pay up your maintenance fees. Noone's going to even take a unit for free if there's a mortgage or MF owing on it.

Once that is done, I recommend going to tug2.net and advertising in their bargain basement section. The ad is free with a one-year $15 membership. If, after a while, you find no takers, offer to pay the closing costs and the following year's MF.

Whatever you do, do NOT pay another post card company (PCC) $2000 and up to "take it off your hands" because they will take your money and not your timeshare unit.

Hope this helps.
