The Truth about Timeshare Offers to Buy

Timeshare Offers to Buy or Rent at SellMyTimeshareNOW.com

The truth about timeshare offers to buy that are published on our website is as transparent as we know how to make it. Yet it still doesn’t always “click” with some people. On our SellMyTimeshareNOW.com website, we publish in real-time, the live feed of timeshare offers to buy as they come into our company. You can check these out for yourself at Up-to-Date Offers to Buy.

But before you follow this link, you need to know and understand what you are seeing. The page, which looks like the picture you see here, is a continually updating list of the offers that come into our company through our SellMyTimeshareNOW.com website. At any given moment, day or night, 24-7, you can view the activity generated on our website by offers being made either to buy timeshare or to rent timeshare.

The information is simple to follow. The left column of the chart shows the “AD#.” This is the ad or advertisement number assigned by Sell My Timeshare NOW to each timeshare unit, interval, or points we advertise, whether it is advertised to buy or advertised to rent.

The second column of information is the “RESORT NAME,” while the third column is called “TYPE OF OFFER.” The “TYPE OF OFFER” simply defines whether an offer is the bid (also called the offer) by a prospective buyer to buy a timeshare or it is a bid by a prospective renter to rent a timeshare. The last column on the right of the chart shows the “AMOUNT” which is the amount of the offer and the “TIME,” which is the hour of the day that the offer or bid was placed.

What’s Right (And You Might Not Understand) about the SellMyTimeshareNOW.com Offers to Buy Page

On our Offers to Buy timeshare page, you can see what dollar amount people are offering to purchase or to rent timeshares. Let’s be very fair. This list does not tell you the final price a timeshare owner accepts for the sale or rental of his or her timeshare. Because people ‘test the waters’ by presenting low-ball offers, you will see offer amounts that are simply too low, but that doesn’t mean that the buying and selling negotiations ended; in fact, a low-ball offer is often where negotiations begin.

Another aspect of the information that can’t be taken at face value is the fact that some prospective buyers begin their process to buy a timeshare by making offers on several properties, again in the process of testing the water to see which owners are negotiable on selling price or other terms of the sale or rental process.

But on the other hand, what’s so very RIGHT about this page is that the information here is as real as information can be. The SellMyTimeshareNOW.com offers to buy or rent page is live, real time, and unedited… and most importantly of all, it is proof that people do buy and rent timeshares every single day.

Wyndham Vacation Ownership Timeshare Sales Goes Techie with iPads

Wyndham Vacation Ownership Timeshare Sales Goes Techie with iPads

Last week Wyndham Vacation Ownership (Wyndham timeshare) announced it was updating its sales practices with the use of an iPad platform. By equipping all of its sales associates with a timeshare sales “tool center,” the Apple iPads become dedicated sales tools for the Wyndham timeshare sales team.

Utilizing some 3,000 iPads, Wyndham Vacation Ownership timeshare sales associates can now serve prospective timeshare owners with real-time data and information that is accurate and consistent no matter where the Wyndham team member is based. Not only will the iPads upgrade the timeshare sales process at Wyndham timeshare, but their use also reduces the company’s environmental footprint.

Jeff Myers, chief sales and marketing officer for Wyndham Vacation Ownership explains, “I’m proud to be part of a company that continues to raise the bar by consistently emphasizing the importance of innovation. We are always looking for what we can do to be better because a company standing still is falling behind.”

Wyndham Vacation Ownership, the World’s Largest Vacation Ownership Company

With over 15,000 employees globally, more than 23,000 individual Wyndham timeshare units, over 900,000 Wyndham and World Mark timeshare owners, Wyndham remains a worldwide leader in vacation ownership. As of December 31, 2012, Wyndham Vacation Ownership had developed or acquired more than 185 vacation ownership resorts throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean and the South Pacific.

Companies that invest in their employees demonstrate that they not only care about the service their clients receive, but they care about the team of workers delivering that service.

Wyndham Vacation Ownership and Q1 Report for Wyndham Worldwide

Wyndham Vacation Ownership and Q1 Report for Wyndham Worldwide

Yesterday The Timeshare Authority blog reported “Profits Rise at Marriott Vacations Worldwide.” Today’s story is about positive momentum shown in Wyndham Worldwide’s Q1 performance. The report includes a look at Wyndham vacation ownership.

Wyndham Hotel Group posted first quarter 2013 revenue of $222 million, which is an increase of 20 percent over the same quarter in 2012. During this same period, adjusted net income at Wyndham was $98 million, or $0.71 per diluted share, compared with $90 million, or $0.60 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2012.

Wyndham reported that the increase in adjusted net income reflects stronger operating results primarily in its lodging and Wyndham vacation ownership businesses, which showed revenues of $549 million in the first quarter of 2013. This reflects a 10% increase over the first quarter of 2012 for Wyndham vacation ownership sales, but excluding the acquisition of Shell Vacations Club, Wyndham vacation ownership revenues increased by 2%. Similarly to what Marriott Vacations Worldwide reported for its first quarter 2013, the increase in profitability for Wyndham timeshare does not necessarily come from increased timeshare sales.

Wyndham Vacation Ownership reported:

  • Service and membership fees at $569M for Q1 2013 versus $504M for Q1 2012.
  • Vacation Ownership interest sales at $263M for Q1 2013 versus $271M for Q1 2012.
  • Franchise fees at $122M for Q1 2013 versus $118M for Q1 2012.
  • Consumer financing at $105M for Q1 2013 versus $103M for Q1 2012
  • Other: $74M for Q1 2013 versus $40M for Q1 2012.

Summary: Wyndham Vacation Ownership net revenues of $1,133M for the Q1 2013 versus $1,036M for Q1 2012.

Stephen P. Holmes, chairman and CEO of Wyndham Worldwide, observed, “We’re off to a great start this year, with an 18% increase in adjusted earnings per share. Our operating momentum is strong and our capital allocation philosophy is disciplined. This winning combination will continue to enhance our growth and shareholder value, this year and in years to come.”
