Wyndham Points Timeshares - Are They Scam Or Not?

Do you think all timeshare deals are scams? Have you been told to stay away from them? How many times have you been told just to say 'no' to that long boring timeshare pitch you hear to get your free tickets to Disney World?

Well, like anything, timeshares could be bad or good for you, depending on the deal you get, timeshares quality and also how you use it. Most of the time if you buy a timeshare which is forced upon you after a 3 hour presentation from a pushing timeshare company, you're not getting a good deal. And yes, they will make you believe that buying vacation ownership is going to be one of your most valuable and important lifetime decisions...and yes, you could end up paying your second mortgage for your "dream vacation ownership" your whole life, if you did not get a good deal on your timeshare. Having said all that, let me tell you, timeshares are great! You can use them for your vacations, you can use them to make some extra money, and if you're tired of dealing with them, you can resell them! Of course, it's hard to resell your timeshare if you purchased it for ,000 and trying to resell for ,000, for example.

Wyndham (formerly known as Fairfield) timeshares are very popular among timeshare owners and timeshare exchange companies. They make your life very easy when you want to choose your vacation destination among Wyndham Vacation Resorts. The company makes it possible with their easy reward points program. You earn points every time you enjoy your vacation at a Wyndam resort. Think about people you know, your family, your friends... You could be sending off someone you know to a Wyndham vacation resort you really liked last time, also giving them an opportunity to have their dream vacation at a reasonable price while you're earning your Wynham reward points. Their points are exchangeable with another popular vacation ownership exchange point system - RCI. The reason I like Wyndham points time shares is for their structure, customer service, reward points, more than 6,000 worldwide locations around the globe, including Wingate by Wyndham, Ramada, Days Inn and Baymont Inn & Suites, available from Wyndham and Wyndham Worldmark. Their reward points can be used toward thousand of redemption options such as free nights, gift cards, car rentals and even airline tickets. Wyndham resorts have activities for the whole family. They even have babysitting service for the children so that you can enjoy going out late with your spouse, inside or even outside of the resort.

Of course, like any other timeshare, depending where you get your Wyndham timeshare, you could get a good deal or not. You can often find great deals on Wyndham timeshares for sale on the internet. Make sure you carefully read all the details about these deals. You don't want to buy a cheap deed for a Wyndam timeshare only to find out later there is a huge maintenance fee that you have to pay every year. Read all the details for the deals you find, no matter where you find them, and if you see something you like, go for it as it will not sit there forever!

Mexico Timeshares - What to Consider If You're Thinking About Timeshares For Sale in Mexico

So you've been thinking about buying a timeshare for sale in Mexico? There's a couple of things you need to know about timeshares in Mexico then before you go ahead and spend your money. So let's take a look at how Mexico timeshares work.

Right to Use Timeshares

DISNEY ENTERPRISE

Before you start shopping for your perfect Mexican timeshare you need to be aware of Mexican property law. Only Mexican citizens are allowed to own property in Mexico, so all of the timeshares in the country are set up as Right to Use timeshares. Now if you are a Mexican citizen, you should be able to buy a deeded timeshare, but since most timeshare buyers looking at Mexican properties are not from Mexico, I'll assume for now that you aren't as well, and therefore you will be looking at a Right to Use (RTU) timeshare.

What Right to Use means is that you do not own anything. It is more like buying a membership than real estate. For example, I own a Royal Holiday Club timeshare that is right to use (because they are based in Mexico) and my membership expires in 2024. So when the year 2025 arrives, I will no longer own my Royal Holiday Club membership and will stop paying maintenance fees and using my points. Basically, I will be done with it.

All Inclusive Resorts

Many timeshare resorts in Mexico and the Caribbean are what's known as all-inclusive resorts. Some are mandatory all-inclusive and some are voluntary. If you are looking at timeshares for sale in Mexico, I personally would avoid mandatory all-inclusive because this will add significantly to your vacation costs. You could be paying as much as 0 per day per guest on top of your annual maintenance fees for your vacation. This is no bargain.

If you are big spender and you love all-inclusive, by all means go for it, but I think most of us who are shopping for a good timeshare resale are looking for the most bang for the buck and I don't think all-inclusive represents that. I'd rather cook a few meals for myself and save some money so I can spend it on a few extra days vacation.

And finally, keep in mind that buying a timeshare is always going to be cheaper as a resale than if you buy from the developer, and in Mexico in particular, I strongly recommend against buying from the developer. If you do so though, you have 5 business days to change your mind. The cooling-off period is part of Mexican timeshare law, but you may have to press the issue if it comes down to it. So all in all, you'll have less hassle and less expense sticking to resale.

Mexico Timeshares - What to Consider If You're Thinking About Timeshares For Sale in Mexico

If you're looking for a good deal on Mexico timeshares resorts, you should take a look at Royal Holiday club timeshares. Based in Mexico, they have lots of resorts there, but they also have resorts all over the world so it's the best of both worlds.

Before you buy a timeshare from a developer, whether in Mexico or elsewhere, be sure to find out what your consumer rights are. Read my tips on the timeshare rescission period, also known as the cooling off period. This your main protection against predatory sales tactics.

Emma Martin currently owns Royal Holiday Club and Disney Vacation Club timeshares and always recommends buying resale.
