Your Timeshare can be used obviously after you have purchased it. Each year your maintenance must be paid up before you can utilise your week(s).

After you initial purchase, each year you must pay a fee for maintaining your timeshare resort. Each resort is different, so it pays to find this out when you are buying, but prices usually range between $100 and $700 In some cases, the resort will ask for a "Special Assessment" fee. This is usually for a major remodeling project and we advise you to check the history record at the Resort for past amounts and times.

If you are buying timeshare for the first time it is important to understand that most resorts have different categories of timeshare weeks. Some timeshare weeks may only be used in non-school holiday periods while others may only be used during a particular week each year and this will be reflected in your initial purchase price, so we advise you to check with your resort.

After your initial purchase price, you own your timeshare either as a deeded property or on a right to use basis depending on the individual resort. It can be passed on as a gift or sold. When on holiday, you can enjoy the use of all the equipment for FREE and make use of activities and tours that are pre-arranged and also usually FREE. If you can't use your week, simply rent it out or gift it to a friend or relative. For the same money as a couple of holidays in a hotel, you can own your holiday accommodation forever. The resorts are top quality and self-contained with full or part kitchens, so you can save money by not dining in expensive restaurants for every meal. Unlike a hotel, there are no charges for extra people. The maximum number of people permitted to occupy a villa can vary from 2 to 8 depending on the size of the villa. .
