My timeshare refused to take the deed back. It is often the case that a timeshare will not take a deed back. I then tried selling my timeshare with a timeshare broker. That was a miserable experience as the broker kept sending me potential buyers who disappeared. Finally I found an attorney who specializes in timeshares and she successfully got it deeded back to me, in a month. They do respond to attorneys. Now, I will tell all of you Don will attempt to convince you my attorney is a scam. I have no idea what his basis is for believing his assertion. He does not know the name of my attorney, and has never been represented by my attorney. There are scams in this industry, plenty of them. I am happy to have found an attorney who has successfully gotten many people of of timeshares, and am happy to pass along her name to anyone who is in the same position I was in.

Below is what I wrote under another of your posts concerning your socalled attorney ..... if that attorney did get you out of the contract it was because it was the Manhattan Club in NYC ..... low in supply and high in demand .... they could easily turn around and sell it to someone else .... that's not the case with the vast majority of timeshares out there.

"You evidently owned a floating week and not a fixed week. With floating weeks (especially for timeshares that are in popular locations such as NYC) you have to make your reservations up to a year in advance in most cases. Owning such a floating week in such a popular location is not for the last minute vacation planner. IF (and I say IF) an attorney took your case and was successful in getting you out of your contract then the Manhatta Club evidently had someone waiting in the wings they could sell it to. NYC is a very expensive city for rental accomodations".
