Posted by Bryan Connelly in : ARDA, Marriott Timeshares, New Features, News & Events, Timeshare Rental, Timeshare Resale, Timeshare Resource, Travel, Wyndham Timeshares , add a comment

Wyndham stock has witnessed a 10 month high this week. While appealing to our budgets with mid-level accommodation like Travelodge, Knights Inn the hotelier has been able to find earnings while the timeshare sector continues to rely on timeshare resales. Other brands, like Marriott, with a portfolio of high-end properties are witnessing fewer families spending more on elegant suites when a modest room along the way will do.

BuyATimeshare.com, a leader in the timeshare resale industry, remains the most effective and user friendly way to buy or rent a timeshare for less. With Marriott shelving their sales force the hospitality giant reported distressing news as their stock fell $1.36 earlier this week. Timeshares continue to deliver saving to travelers, and as the retail market states sales are down significantly, the resale market is witnessing a boom!

The only way that vacationgoers can buy timeshares is through the resale market, with the credit market frozen and the properties priced to sell. The advertising prices at BuyATimeshare.com have been attracting thousands of vacation property owners who are looking to sell off their timeshares fast.

The massiveness of Wyndham’s collection is what has kept their earnings up during this tough economy. “People are still traveling to go visit Auth Ruth, and they’re stopping along the way to stay at a Days Inn or a Super 8… The economy [level] and mid-scale hotels that we have, for the most part, are built for value for the consumers, and that’s what the consumer’s looking for now” said CEO Stephen Holmes in an interview with Bloomberg.

As a diverse arrangement of travel products have kept Wyndham afloat, Marriott has stumbled, offering only luxurious suites. At least for now while people are abandoning their infinity pools for a humble motel, the rental program at BuyATimeshare.com is bringing the posh Marriott vacations available to you at Super 8 prices.

Marriott Steps In For Historical Win July 27, 2009

Posted by John Copain in : Hilton Head Island, Marriott Timeshares , add a comment

Most timeshare resorts don’t have much history attached to their structures. Even resorts in areas that feature historic attractions – such as timeshares in Williamsburg;, Virginia or Hilton Head Island timeshares in South Carolina – are often very new buildings designed to resemble their aged surroundings. However, the Marriott Custom House in Boston is not your average timeshare resort. For starters, the building itself is one of Boston’s most recognizable skyscrapers and has been a staple of the Boston Harbor skyline for since the addition of the tower section of the building around 1910. To give you an idea of the age of the building, it was originally completed in 1849.

For many years the Marriott Custom House in Boston was the actual custom house that inspected cargo coming in to Boston Harbor. The customs department moved to a different building in the mid-80s leaving the building to city surplus property and then available to be purchased.

And the rest is history…

The move has been praised by both the city of Boston and the National Trust for Historical Preservation because Marriott converting it into a timeshare condo ensures the building will remain a part of Boston for a long time. The move also benefits Marriott as they can now provide the only timeshare accommodations in Boston proper and allow the owners to enjoy an unrivaled view of the city. The building is 30 stories and holds 84 timeshare units. Even in a city with more than 200 years of history it is a real treat to stay inside a piece of cherished history.

Ethical Timeshare Resales from BuyATimeshare.com July 25, 2009

As the courts have banned a few rotten apple timeshare sales offices from charging advance fees to advertise properties, BuyATimeshare.com must assure you that we are not to be mistaken for these types of unethical companies, charging a commission even after the have collected an advertising fee.

Some timeshare resale frims where charging not only the typical upfront fee, but were in fact taking a commission from unsuspecting customers, once the property sold. This blatantly illegal and unethical act finally caught up with the firm, unable to operate altogether in the state of Florida.

Advertising is, on the other hand, the only way to resell a timeshare. For sale by owner sales have been the most successful and inexpensive way to resell… anything. A resale market exists for every commodity, and one can buy advertising specific all of them.

Automobiles, watercraft, RVs, consumers buy and resale all of them. Advertising makes it possible for buyers to find it. Isn’t it true that the more people who know your timeshare is for sale the quicker it will sell?

Many consumers are caught up on the upfront fee and forget the cost effectiveness of a commission free sale. For sale by owner sales have been that reliable way to resell timeshare for decades, but recently so many people have taken advantage of the system that, consumers are scared and do not know who to trust.

These companies were charging a commission after they already provided a service. This is as if a phone book charged a commission for every phone call a business gets due to advertising with them—unfair and unethical.

Everyone at BuyATimeshare.com has been providing the worldwide exposure necessary to resell and rent timeshare properties, with no strings attached. Your advertising fee goes toward the support of this incredibly expensive task. Purpose-built advertising can get expensive, but is even more so to provide.

The truth is that the resale market and for-sale-by-owner advertising, aggressive pricing, a bit of patience is the best means of selling that timeshare property… or anything for that matter.

Ilikai Hotel Stays on the Resale Market July 15, 2009

Posted by Bryan Connelly in : ARDA, Timeshare Rental, Timeshare Resale, Timeshare Resource, Travel , add a comment

Ilikai Hotel, located on the shores of Waikiki, has closed its doors, shutting down as of July 9, 2009. After being acquired by iStar Financial Inc. for $51million at a foreclosure auction in May, economic woes and operating losses have forced this prominent hotel to deactivate nearly 1,000 units cut hundreds of employees after decades of loyal service.

Featuring nearly 210 guestrooms and timeshare suites, there are 1000 units overlooking the spectacular view of Honolulu and the beaches of Waikiki. A popular timeshare is the Shell Vacations Club at Waikiki Marina Resort at the Ilikai. This is Oahu’s first timeshare established in the luxury high-rise hotel.

Due to a pact with the labor union, iStar has agreed to reopen the hotel in the near future. This reopening will not only add value to the properties on the resale market, but without a sales office at Ilikai, BuyATimeshare.com and the resale market is the only economic way to rent or buy a suite at this iconic luxury hotel for a vacation on the shores of Hawaii.

NC Attorney General shuts down Florida operation for phony pitch July 14, 2009

Posted by Jason Dobbins in : ARDA , 1 comment so far

Attorney General Roy Cooper has won a battle against a Florida telemarketer who was making a phony pitch.

Cooper says Premier Timeshare Vacations, Inc., also known as Paradise Marketing Group, has been calling people in North Carolina who are looking to sell their timeshares.

The callers claim that they’ve found a buyer for the timeshare, but they need an upfront free before the sale can go through.

According to Cooper, the company charged the owners’ credit cards up to $5,000.

A judge granted Cooper’s request to temporarily ban the company from doing business in North Carolina.

Now, he will try to get a permanent ban.

Malaysia’s Palace Vacation Club announced that it will be appointing Resort Condominiums International as its exclusive timeshare exchange service provider. Palace Vacation Club has long since been regarded as a unique resort developer operating all over Malaysia. Palace Vacation Club has 11 resorts making up its internal network, including resorts in such notable areas as Selangor, outside of Kuala Lumpur; Borneo; Penang; and Sarawak.

Palace Vacation Club has gracefully taken advantage of the diverse Malaysian landscape by building distinct resorts in different areas that are accentuated by the surrounding environment. For example, the Perdana Beach Resort located in Langkawi, Kedah provides vacationers with oceanfront property on the tranquil and breathtaking Kuala Melaka Beach. The Kayangan Apartments provide the serenity of the Genting Highlands in Pahang as well as the exciting attractions of the town. Country Villas is a Mediterranean-style resort amid the rolling greens of Kajang and is still close to the major city of Kuala Lumpur.

This new agreement allows Palace Vacation Club owners to enjoy a higher level of flexibility as well as open up whole new possibilities for vacationing, not only in Southeast Asia but all over the world with RCI’s extensive network of timeshare resorts.

Well, if there is anything left to be desired Palace Vacation Club owners can now take advantage of RCI’s thousands of resorts in locations across the world.

BuyATimeshare.com is The Confirmed Leader in The Timeshare Resale Sector July 13, 2009

Posted by Bryan Connelly in : ARDA, Marriott Timeshares, News & Events, Timeshare Rental, Timeshare Resale, Timeshare Resource, Travel, Westgate Timeshares, Wyndham Timeshares , 2comments

Two quarters through the year of 2009 many companies have not been able to outlast the slow economy, even fewer have been able to break even, and the extreme rarity are those that have actually made a profit. So, in a stifling economy that has affected every socio-economic bracket and hit every sector of commerce how is it that a young company is able to flourish in the vacation and leisure industry?

The answer is simple, yet something you might not expect.

As the financial world evolves, more and more companies begin to rely on advances in technology. Consumers have seen brilliant inventions and popular fads that burn brightly, but fade out quickly. As well as new schemes and advertising tactics designed to squeeze money out of saturated markets. But none of these developments have the ability to last, especially not when money is tight and consumers are cutting what is not necessary out of their budgets.

Yet, among all the chaos BuyATimeshare.com has quietly been putting up strong sales numbers in the profit column. How, you ask? Diligence.

In the real estate industry one of the common tricks of the trade is inflated or “gamed” offer numbers. Consumers and potential clients look at the number of offers made, and the average offer amount boasted by a real estate company and use that as a way to judge if the company is successful or not. The problem is that there is an easy loophole to offer numbers. Online for-sale-by-owner property sites usually have online forms where anyone can fill out an offer on a property and submit it. This makes business easy and convenient, but the stats are not always accurate. Many times these offers made on for sale property are bogus and the person who entered the form has no intention or means of backing that offer up. But some companies still count these offers in their company statistics. And in the worst cases some companies enter their own bogus offers in order to inflate their numbers.

BuyATimeshare.com has just released their six month stats in confirmed offer numbers. This means that a specialist calls and confirms each offer that is entered and only the legit offers are counted. And these guys are no slackers either. BuyATimeshare.com is getting between 10,000 and 15,000 thousand unique visitors per day and receiving between 500 and 1000 offers every day. That is a lot more work, but it has paid off for BuyATimeshare.com as they are continuing to emerge as the timeshare resale company with integrity. Who would have guessed it would be old-fashioned hard work that drives commerce through the economic crises of the new millennium?

These confirmed offer numbers are even more impressive knowing that they can compete with the inflated numbers of other companies struggling to stay in the game. In a BuyATimeshare.com report you can see staggering statistics such as their total amount of confirmed offers in dollars for the first six months, which hovers around $35 million. You can also see evidence of the company’s resilience in these tough times as they still offer big name brands and are still getting the proper value for top-end property. For owners of popular brand name timeshares or for buyers looking for such property the report illustrates some comforting stats as their top seller is Worldmark by Wyndham which appear to be selling just as well as ever.

A big concern for timeshare owners lately has been that if they wanted to sell they would not be able to get money equal to the value of the property because no one can afford it these days. If that sounds familiar than BuyATimeshare.com evidently has the solution because they have high offer averages basically across the board for Marriott and Westin resorts properties as well as a couple top confirmed offers that you would never have guessed possible.

You can currently go on to BuyATimeshare.com and download the report in confirmed offers for free. Hopefully the release of this bi-annual report and the success of BuyATimeshare.com will urge other companies in the timeshare resale sector to focus on integrity and help BuyATimeshare.com bring a new reputation to the timeshare world.
