What is a Timeshare?

A number of resorts and campgrounds in Michigan offer accommodations on a timesharing basis: vacationers lease or own a week's stay each year at a specific vacation property or resort. In most cases, leased timeshares are sold on a right-to-use basis for a period of 20 years or more, whereas deeded timeshares are owned outright (usually indefinitely). Timeshares are usually sold in weekly increments, although points-based ownership-which offers more flexible usage options-is also a vailable from many resort companies.

Timeshare Resales

Timesharing was invented to make vacationing simpler and more cost-effective for vacationers and resorts alike. However, many potential owners are discouraged from purchasing these vacation properties, because many resort groups and developers employ elaborate, high-pressure tours and presentations to make these sales. Almost everyone knows someone who has sat through a five-hour sales pitch for timeshares simply because they wanted the free dinner or show tickets offered as an incentive. And wh ile taking a timeshare tour is helpful for those eager to learn about the different amenities at a particular resort, it is important to remember that attending one of these presentations is NOT the only way to buy a timeshare. Keep in mind that you can us ually save 50-70% off a timeshare resort's asking price by buying timeshare resales directly from an owner.

Some resorts do sell resale units, weeks, or points, but for the most part, these properties are still more expensive than what you will find on the secondary market. Why? The value of a timeshare decreases dramatically the moment after it is s old for the first time, much in the same way that a car drops in value significantly as soon as you drive it off the lot. Furthermore, resorts have to mark-up the cost of their weeks in order to cover the expenses generated by their promotional giveaways a nd sales pitches. Individual owners, on the other hand, do not have to cover such expenses.

If you are looking for a timeshare in Michigan, an online resale company is one of the best ways to compare a variety of properties. Online resellers provide a marketplace where you can get in touch with sellers directly in order to facilitate a smooth sales process. Furthermore, the high number of properties and weeks available on the resale market helps to keep the costs in line with the actual market value of these properties.

Rent a Michigan Timeshare

Though timeshares are an affordable way to travel to your favorite resort in Michigan every year, there are times when it's just not possible to vacation. When that's the case, many timeshare owners opt to rent out their week to someone else so they can cover their annual maintenance fee. This is an extremely great way for travelers to experience a full week in a luxurious Michigan timeshare for less than most hotels can match.

By renting a Michigan timeshare, you'll be able to enjoy all of the fabulous amenities timeshares provide - such as full kitchens, spacious living rooms, balconies with gorgeous views, and a full array of exciting on-site activities - even if you're not a member, it's a great way to try before you buy. You can find a huge selection of weekly rentals at such resorts as Harbor Cove in Harbor Springs, Mountain Run at Boyne in Boyne Falls.
