Question about how to best get rid of a timeshare

[Guest]

Hello, I have been a lurker for awhile and now have a question that

hopefully someone out there can help me with.

Two years ago, my husband and I went on a kind of honeymoon trip.

While on this mini vacation, with stary eyes we were suckered into

purchasing a vacation club membership, a.k.a. a timeshare. While the

benefits of club membership are quite attractive, my husband is in the

military and we are not going to have any opportunities to use this

membership for about the next 10 years or so. Meanwhile, we are paying

maintenance fees, etc. So, we would really like to sell it. Looking

back I know it was not a wise decision to make the purchase in the

first place, and I don’t want to make an equally hasty decision in

paying a company to advertise it for sale. Every company I have talked

to charges about $600 upfront to advertise. Has anyone dealt with a

company that they would recomend? Or have any other advice on this

topic?

Thanks In Advance, Joanna
