Re: Has anyone purchased from Vallart Gardens? (by Sharon):

We did not purchase at Vallarta Gardens, we purchased at Puerto Bahia just North about 2 miles. We were promised that Mercury Property Management would give us guaranteed $2600.00 for our 10 weeks for 7 years. WOW, what a good deal..... TOO GOOD and it was NOT SO! Mercury is not out of business as of two weeks ago, but should be. It is run now out of a call center. The address on their letterhead is bogus, it's a vacant lot and they don't have a telephone number for their Customer Service, you can only contact them by email. Apparently these people are all connected and have 3 or 4 different "fly and buy" companies that they lie to you about. All you have to do is google some of names associated with the Vallarta Gardens, Miramer, Crystal and Puerto Bahia -- it's sickening. We have invested over $43,000.00 and just recently shut off our credit card so they can charge no more. We will pay no more to this group. We recently found out that the contracts that we signed to trade in equity for two other properties were lost. We have emails that indicate they did receive them and were in perfect shape, and all we had to do is sit back and wait to receive our money and then we could make the payments and pay more to them. No one ever notified us that they were gone and our agent is no longer with Mercury Property Management. They also are not listed with the BBB. What a mess!

So I was told by Vallarta Gardens 2 days ago that Mercury Property Management (the company that markets the weeks) went out of business. I contacted Mercury yesterday and they said NO, we are still in business and still with Vallarta Gardens. I don’t know who the hell is lying to me. I called Vallarta Gardens again today and they told me they found another company that can market the weeks. They no longer work with Mercury. I told Vallarta Gardens that I am sick of their lies and I want out of the contract. They said, you are out of luck because if you want out, you have to pay 50% of the price of the property. They also said I cannot dispute the charges because they have no affiliation with Mercury so I can't do anything. Are they really right? In the contract that we have with Vallarta Gardens, there is nothing indicating that they work with Mercury and that Mercury will market our weeks. We have a contract with Mercury and the name of Vallarta Gardens is on that contract. Any advice from anyone?
