CRDA Conference and the Receptive Canada Timeshare Market

With a great Canadian Resort Development Association Conference wrapped up and a lot of enthusiasm perking throughout the Canada timeshare industry, let’s look more closely at where vacation ownership actually stands in Canada.

• 89 percent of Canadians surveyed in a recent study say their opinion of Canada timeshare either is the same or better than it was ten years ago.
• 80 percent of Canadians know about timeshare but 72 percent have not been exposed to offers for vacation ownership products.
• 68 percent of the Canadians surveyed have never attended a timeshare sales presentation.

These stats about Canadian timeshare reveal a large, untouched market of people who could be future timeshare owners if only they are exposed more directly to the benefits of timeshares and timeshare resales.

What Canada Timeshare Means to the Timeshare Market

For US timeshare owners looking to sell timeshare they no longer need, Canada offers a large population of vacationers, many of whom already travel south for their holidays, and who may want to buy a timeshare. And for any vacationer who loves winter sports, amazing scenery, mountain hiking, cosmopolitan urban areas and plenty of great outdoors, Canada timeshares and Canada timeshare resales provide a wonderful vacation ownership opportunity.

As Jim Madrid, keynote speaker at CRDA’s conference last week in Vancouver, explained: with change comes both challenges and opportunities.

Right now, the economy is changing; so are the ways people vacation and the ways they shop for vacation ownership products. Both the timeshare industry and the vacationing consumer have an opportunity to be part of this change in real and measurable ways.

Here are just a few of the many beautiful Canada timeshare resorts: Marriott Residence Inn Gravenhurst Muskoka Wharf Timeshare; Shell Vacations Club At Carriage Hills Resort Timeshare; Whistler Resort & Club Timeshare and all the great Aviawest timeshares and WorldMark timeshares.
