Claim: "Paying for hotels while on vacation is a waste. Over the next 10 years of weekly vacations, you'll spend thousands more than if you bought a time share here." Reality: A big expense is sometimes left out of this equation. When doing this time share vs. hotel price comparison, they may point out, for example, that 10 years of hotel rooms will cost you about $18,000 after inflation. Meanwhile the time share costs a few thousand less over that same period of time. But make sure interest on the time share loan — and hundreds of dollars in annual maintenance fees — are included when they do the math. Suddenly a much different picture may emerge.
Use your time share to travel anywhere:
Claim: "You can exchange your time share week here for one at any resort you want … and visit Hawaii in the winter, Paris in the spring, anywhere, anytime." Reality: Exchanging your time share week for one at another resort, anywhere in the world, is one of the biggest attractions of time sharing — and potentially the source of its biggest disappointments. That's because many people find that the "anywhere, anytime" claim is an exaggeration. Top vacation spots such as Hawaii can be very hard to exchange into, especially if the week you own is not during high season and in a top property. But if you're willing to be flexible about dates and locations, you could do very well for yourself.
We have a special price for you:
Claim: "The value of a one-bedroom-for-one-week time share is $28,250. We'll give you a $4,000 discount." Reality: Typically you'll first be quoted a false high price, which is then dropped automatically. That way buyers are led to believe they are getting a bargain, when the truth is the salesperson doesn't really expect anyone to pay that inflated first price. If you keep bargaining though, you can usually get them down much further.
It's now or never:
Claim: "If you don't buy today, you'll have to pay full price." Reality: Insiders say that if you come back the next day, chances are you can still get the same deal. Still, this is one of the most common misrepresentations. In fact, some South Carolina resorts go so far as to have you sign a piece of paper warning that, according to state law, the offer is only good that day. But this is just another bogus pressure ploy — the state Real Estate Commission says no such law exists.
