Is It Possible To Legally Cancel A Timeshare Contract?
Yes, yes and yes! Please don’t let anyone
tell you different.
Timeshare companies and realtors in the
business will make it seem that the contracts cannot be canceled. Yes, it is a legally binding document and can be enforced
in the court of law, but there are always ways to get out of it or settle in a favorable manner.
Let’s look at the various options you have
in more detail –
1 Canceling within
the cooling-off period – each contract (depending
on the State laws) have a rescindment period. If you decide to cancel within
this time limit, then it is a straightforward process. Write a formal letter
and ensure that it is delivered to the company within the time period and in
the manner prescribed in the contract.
2 Canceling after the
rescindment period – legally canceling a timesharecontract after the cooling off period can end up becoming a long and
complicated process. If you are lucky, then in some cases the resort owner will
be open for negotiating a termination of the timeshare. However, in most cases, you will have to hire a timeshare liquidation company
(preferably with lawyers) to help you formulate a legal plan.
Legally cancelling a timeshare contract is
a sensible option if you are 100% sure you do not want to continue with the agreement, but if you are
sitting on the fence about the decision then you may want to look options such
as transferring or selling your timeshare ownership (this can also be handled
by timeshare liquidation experts) or renting your timeshare to other
vacationers.
Over 20 million households across the world
own a timeshare, but despite the continuing popularity of the concept, scams
are common! While you might not have been affected by dishonest practices, the
stringent contracts of the timeshare industry make it tough to change your
mind. In this world of online scams, it’s important always to ensure you have the right representation and expertise to
get you out of timeshare contracts legally and safely.
