The timeshare industry is ideal for inexpensive vacationing and access to the world’s finest resorts. Throughout 2008 and 2009 straits in the U.S economy have triggered companies to pare staff by the thousand. US unemployment has increased, and in the aftermath of a tough credit market, companies like Marriott, Wyndham and Consolidated Resorts have shed sales departments of their hospitality industry.

BuyATimeshare.com is the leading timeshare resale firm. Due to an increase in the demand for selling and renting timeshares, this resale market is witnessing a boom. Vacationers are finding affordable trips during economic hardship, and the timeshare owners are getting their properties sold.

Contrary to current conditions, BuyATimeshare.com, a New Hampshire-based timeshare reseller and marketing firm has recently expanded its office in Merrimack, New Hampshire and in Tampa, Florida to handle the flood of buyers and renters looking for affordable rates at luxury suites.

Wes Kogelman, President of BuyATimeshare.com explains “We have the most aggressive marketing program to bring buyers and seller of timeshare properties together; we’ve shown success with all timeshare properties throughout the world and want to offer people a worry-free way to sell or rent their timeshare properties.”

As a timeshare property ownership can bring years of affordable vacationing, likewise it can become a liability. While annual maintenance fees pile up for some owners, others are unable to even enjoy their timeshare year after year. A growing number of people are liquidating assets and scurrying to pay their inflated home mortgages,

BuyATimeshare.com has created the resale marketplace on their website to help in their efforts. Advertising is a significant tool in a world driven by internet technology. More and more owners cannot afford, do not use, or are just looking to sell or rent their timeshare properties. “We’ve listened to our consumers and want to do everything possible to help. We are providing the best worldwide exposure to get timeshares sold,” Kogelman said.

High End Hotel Company Introduces New Points System Option

Ritz Carlton has been well known as one of the leaders in luxury hotels for what seems like forever. While leading the pack in one hospitality sector they have only dabbled in timeshares – compared to other major hotel/timeshare resort entities such as Hyatt and Marriott – reserving certain very well appointed resorts for timesharing, like the Ritz Carlton Club Saint Thomas and the Ritz Carlton Club Aspen Highlands. However, Ritz Carlton seems geared up to make some expansions in their timeshare sector asthey roll out the new points system for Ritz Carlton timeshare owners.

On April 28th Ritz Carlton announced their brand new points system in order to add options to ownership packages other than fixed, deeded ownership. While many timeshare resorts looking to expand their operations introduce a right to use ownership option, Ritz Carlton has opted to go with the points system plan because it will give current owners and future owners optimal flexibility with the ability to access to the worldwide Ritz Carlton family of resorts. This new ownership option is called the Ritz Carlton Destination Club.

The points membership is currently available to members of Ritz Carlton’s Home Club, but other Ritz Carlton owners may see programs created specifically for them too. According to David Short, the regional vice president of sales for Ritz Carlton Destination Club, “We’re spending a lot of time working on programs for our existing customers, it’s good for them, and it should allow us to grow a little more quickly in the future.” The Ritz Carlton Destination Club membership has been named Portfolio. Look for forthcoming innovations from this high end resort company as they focus more and more on their timeshare properties around the world.

All Marriott Vacation Club Owners will now have access to the very successful Marriott Rewards. Timeshare Owners will now be entitled to Marriott’s Fifth Night Free Program. The program requires that the guest book a 5 night vacation and the 5th night will be free of charge.

The company is moving in a direction which will assign hotel category levels to the Marriott Vacation Club Timeshare Resorts. The Timeshares will be ranked in number categories (5,6, and 7) under the Marriott Rewards system. This level will determine how many points will be required for a 1 night say. Typically it will be 25,000; 30,000; or 35,000 points respectively. These will be based on a deluxe guest room and will depend on the ranking of the timeshare property.

Resort Developers Fight Suffering Financial Market Sign of Good Things to Come May 22, 2009

Timeshare Companies Prevail Despite Languishing Financial Economy

The United States’ economic recession and the subsequent global credit market decline has affected nearly every commercial business and every industry on every level. Finding a light within this dim economic time is not easy, especially for business owners – and in the timeshare industry, resort developers. But news from the timeshare financing sector of a couple major developers is just that, a bit of optimism amidst the unrelenting negative talk of recessions and depressions.

The collapse of several American and international banks have thrown a wrench into the real estate markets and lending institutions. Interest rates have gone up and property values have gone down. Amazingly, this did not immediately affect the timeshare industry. It wasn’t until the fall and winter of 2008 that the timeshare financing, property loan, and timeshare mortgage systems of major timeshare resort developers began to slip. All of a sudden timeshare companies weren’t making money from selling their product because there was no way to monetize consumer debt – in other words selling timeshare units based on money lending was no longer profitable. This meant that timeshare companies were looking for cash transactions, which is unrealistic for most prospective timeshare owners.

The good news arrived last month when it became evident that both Starwood and Marriott were going to continue to offer financing for new timeshares, which is a lot harder for resort developers to do than it is for timeshare resale companies to do because the units are so much more expensive – this is one of the reasons BuyATimeshare has managed to evade the financial market crash.

For giant corporations there is a higher risk because this type of property financing relies on mortgage-backed securities this is a sign that the left-for-dead securities market is starting to move again. That is quite a bit more positive than most economic news you’ve heard today, isn’t it? No one has predicted a full recovery overnight, but if this is a sign of things to come than the ailing property and financial markets may finally begin to recover.

It’s going to be a long road to recovery for the US economy, but it has to start somewhere. If Plato was right then once we’ve seen the light we will be reluctant to return. Let’s hope he was talking about vacation ownership!

Marriott International Inc. sold $205million in timeshare loans earlier this month. Who know how much the sum of those notes was, or what company bought them? This gain has fueled the opening of another Marriott resort in the timeshare sector once again.

Opening the first phase of Crystal Shores on Marco Island off the southwest coast of Florida, this will be Marriott’s first property to reach the Gulf of Mexico. With 71, 2 and 3 bedroom suites that can accommodate up to 10 guests, the plan is to build up to 219 units. All suites will be greater than 1,100 square feet, with 2 pools and of course the bar attached.
