The resort charges a lot more than the resale market. Why is that?
A. Much of timeshare resort developer costs are sales and marketing related. When you purchase directly from the resort, unfortunately you are paying to absorb all of the administrative and marketing costs associated with the sale of the property. When buying on the resale market, you only pay for the market value of the property.
