The worst timeshare is one that someone doesn't use. I had someone comment on a video on my channel that had also bought Westgate, but learned about rescission in time to be able to cancel. Great to know people are saving tens of thousands of dollars by the information we put out there.

I've only watched a few of your videos so far and get good info each time. Just a suggestion that you change either the angle of the camera or angle of your lights so you don't see the light circles reflections in your glasses. Don't recall if this was in other videos or if this one was an exception, but thought I would mention it...keep up the good work!!

Thank you for the support and feedback! Ive actually only started wearing glasses in my videos thus the new problem! Ill see if i can find a way to adjust it so the front light does not reflect as much!

Most of the tens of thousands of owners on TUG love their timeshare! however we bet you would love it even more if you got it for free on the resale market instead of paying full price for it!

Timeshares in general are awful to buy from a developer. Unfortunately, unlike most timeshares, Westgate timeshares are bad to buy resale as well. However; if you bought from the Westgate developer it's probably just best to learn how to enjoy and appreciate that overpriced purchase. 😅 It isnt the end of the world. A lot of people bought a timeshare from a developer and learned to use it well. ❤

We agree, buying from the developer is almost always a mistake! Sometimes it can be very difficult to get over the anger and disappointment to learn you were taken advantage of by a salesperson making learning to use it effectively even more difficult for so many! However taking vacations is the reason you bought in the first place! Using TUG to maximize your ownership to take those vacations moving forward is a fantastic option!

What if the cancelation time is over? What are my options?

unfortunately once you are out of your rescission period your options are limited to rather poor choices. you can still try to convince them to end your ownership by becoming a squeaky wheel, but this is only effective if you can prove you were misled or lied to during the sales presentation or other similar extenuating circumstances. you are not able to give back, or give away a timeshare if it still has a loan balance attached leaving you with default as a final option (and this is the strategy utilized by exit/cancellation companies) but it comes with the expected potential consequences of defaulting on any other loan/agreement. tug2.net/timeshare_advice/how-to-get-rid-of-timeshare.html

if you are still within your rescission period yes, all money you paid is refunded when you exercise your right to rescind.

the instructions for cancellation should be included in the sales contract you signed! read over it very carefully as westage is pretty famous for not making it super obvious! here is one address in response 3 of this post for rescinding, but you want to make sure you send it wherever it says in the contract using whatever method is specified in the contract! tugbbs.com/forums/threads/just-got-a-timeshare-at-wgmb-and-i-need-out-please-help.353407/

I’m screwed because I bought Westgate 17 years ago (it’s completely paid off). I used it 3 times and due to circumstances I can’t afford the maintenance fees. So they took me to collections. The only way out is to let them foreclose on the property due to non payment of the maintenance fees and screw up my credit.
@TimeshareUsersGroup
@TimeshareUsersGroup Жыл бұрын
foreclosure is the end result after defaulting and comes with the risk of being reported to the credit bureaus, though low chance, certainly not zero. Had you made efforts to give it away on the resale market for free or give it back to westgate using their surrender program before stopping payment? unfortunately now that you are already in the foreclosure process those options are no longer available :(

@@HalNeeham its certainly part of the process yes. foreclosure is simply the process of getting the deed/ownership back from the delinquent owner. have you reached out to them to inform them that you are willing to simply give it back to them and be done with it? they certainly hope that you will continue to pay. if you have made an effort to give it back, or give it away you could present that evidence as a dispute to the credit agencies!

We are looking to be put on my mother in laws deed for westgate. She owns hers and the maintenance fee is $1,600 a year. 3 weeks. Is this a good move for us? It seems reasonable to us

would not suggest adding yourself to your mother in laws deed unless you truly understand the westgate system and are ok with paying those maintenance fees forever. westgate has zero resale value and are extremely difficult to give away (though they do have a deedback program). have you checked out other systems that might be a better fit?
