Timeshares make it possible for you to secure prepaid, weeklong annual or biennial (every other year) vacations at the resort of your choice. They’re generally more convenient and cost-effective than renting a hotel room.  The units are generally larger and much better equipped than a hotel with many more amenities.

If you’re interested in timeshares, you might want to rent a timeshare property first to determine if the lifestyle is right for you. When you rent, you can reap many of the benefits of ownership without having to sign a contract. You can find great timeshare rentals on the online resale market.  You can also find great deals on timeshares for sale. 

Timeshare resale purchase 

The online resale market is generally the most widely accessible place to find great deals on timeshares for rent and for sale.  You will find sale prices to be as much as 65% – 75% less than purchasing direct from developers.
