The cost of owning a timeshare

Timeshares are one way to go on vacation and invest at the same time. Also called “vacation ownership,” it is a type of real estate purchase that lets the buyers pay only a portion of the property, thus making the investor a part owner of the place.

The bought share allows its owners to use the property for a particular period of time every year, while the rest will be allotted to other shareholders.

The cost of timeshares is based on different factors, which include the property’s share size, location, and the time of year the property will be used. Other variables include condition of the property and market value of the timeshare at the time.

Today, timeshares can cost approximately between $500 to $40,000 for one week and are commonly sold from resorts in tourist spots around the world. Apart from this, owners are also charged annual fees for maintenance, utilities, and taxes, which usually cost around the $300 to $400. Many people believe that owning a timeshare is a permanent ticket to better vacationing as it offers both affordability and security. But before purchasing one, investors must take time to expand their choices in terms of accommodations, amenities, pricing, and use plans, among others.
