I am unfortunate enough to be the owner of a floating 1 week even yeared ownership with ARI, on which I have been paying maintenance fees on for almost 20 years and not used once. How do I get rid of this thing?

First and foremost, never, ever pay anyone a large, upfront fee to sell, rent out, market, or "cancel" your timeshare because all those operations are usually a scam.

First, try contacting the resort's Home Owners' Association, explain your situation, and ask if they will take it back. They might require you to pay one or two years' maintenance fees plus closing costs.

If that doesn't work, try listing it here in RedWeek's Bargain Basement to sell for $1 (or even free). My Resort Network and Timeshare Users Group are also good outlets to list your timeshare for sale or giveaway.
