Timeshare Secrets, Tips & Tricks for Cancellation

What the industry won't tell you — and what to check before you trust any exit company with your case.

TIMESHARE EXIT TIPS

What to Look For in a Legitimate Company

Work with a company whose corporate counsel handles the cancellation directly

Your funds can get stuck in escrow. A company that doesn't take any funds up front is a red flag for hidden fees and obligations — work with one that completes fulfillment themselves.

Insist on a written guarantee

Any legitimate firm should be able to offer you a 100% money-back guarantee in writing, as part of your signed agreement, not just a verbal promise.

You do not need a lawyer to cancel your timeshare

In most cases a law firm can't help. By law, an attorney cannot promise an outcome, so there's never a guarantee they can cancel your contract — and there's no "timeshare class" in law school. An attorney relies on general contract law to dispute an airtight resort contract and will keep charging you beyond the initial fee.

Resorts don't work with third parties

Once an attorney advises the resort they're representing you, the resort typically ceases communication — forcing the attorney into litigation, which means more legal fees for you.

Is your contract paid off?

First, try calling the resort directly and asking to voluntarily surrender your deed.

WHO CAN YOU TRUST?

Here's What They Won't Tell You

Reviews Can Be Bought

Good reviews can be purchased by any company. Focus on the complaints instead — a pattern of the same complaint reveals more truth than a five-star average.

Ask for Proof

If someone claims a company helped them, ask for proof. A real client will happily share their cancellation letter from the resort.

Nobody Gets Your Money Back

It's highly unlikely any resort will refund you — the deed has zero property value. Anyone promising to get your money back is a red flag for a scam.

BBB Ratings Are Purchased

Any company that pays the BBB to become accredited is handed an A+ rating. Read the actual reviews instead of trusting the letter grade.
