Are timeshare resales always cheaper than the brand new timeshares purchased through the developer?
A. Generally yes. Developers timeshare prices have to include the costs of advertising, presenting, free gifts, etc., which are 30% to 40% of the total cost of the timeshare! This alone can easily exceed the cost of the timeshare resale. If you buy a timeshare through a resale market, expect to pay for the timeshare 50% to 90% less.
