I had never looked into one but did before the presentation and it doesn't seem to be a good fit for a lot of people as you are required to make monthly maintenance fees for the rest of your life.
We did say no a few times and were able to leave with no sale made 
p.s. we also believe that an older couple were in the sales presentation as 'plants'. |
You'll end up paying THOUSANDS (and in many cases, TENS OF THOUSANDS) of dollars. If you are really interested in a timeshare, do your due diligence on where you want, how often you may use it, annual maintenance fees and then buy one off of eBay for as little as $1.00 with no closing fees. Quite often, you'll find nice timeshares where the seller is now older, the kids are grown and the seller no longer uses it. They'll sell it for a low price just to get out of paying the annual maintenance fees. And quite often, the seller will also pay closing costs, just to get rid of it.
