My mom got roped into buying a Wyndham timeshare on a trip and procrastinated herself out of the grace period. Is there anything she can do to get out of it now?

They are amazing, for only 12K [1] it is like owning [2] a place in the resort. You can book any time [3] on our easy to use site [4]. Once you have had enough you can simply sell your timeshare back to us [5,6] or to someone else [7].

  1. Plus 700 a month for maintenance.
  2. No, you don't own a stake in the unit.
  3. If you book between the previous solstice and the closest new moon to your preferred holiday time.
  4. Online booking only available in the pro package or beyond.
  5. No guarantee we will buy it.
  6. A fee equal to 2 years worth of maintenance costs will charged on dissolution of the contract.
  7. You receive no proceeds from sales to third parties
