Get Your Hawaii Timeshare in Front of Interested Buyers

If you’ve decided it’s time to sell your timeshare in Hawaii, there is a great market for Hawaii timeshare resales. Hawaii is a highly attractive location for prospective buyers as it is filled with beautiful vacation destinations from more well-known places like Waikiki Beach and Lanai to lesser-known gems like Niihau Island and Papohaku Beach.

What’s the Market for My Hawaii Timeshare?

Hawaii is an extremely popular vacation destination that is home to many top-rated timeshare brands, including Marriott, Hyatt, Hilton Grand Vacations, and even the Disney resort and spa Aulani. If you own a timeshare in one of Hawaii’s sought-after destinations, there are absolutely buyers out there looking for your property.

However, you should understand that it is a buyer’s market, so using a professional to help you sell your Hawaii timeshare is the best way to successfully and responsibly move on from your ownership. Additionally, be aware that you should not go into the timeshare sales process expecting to make back what you originally paid for your timeshare.

While you will likely make money selling your Hawaii timeshare, you’re unlikely to find a buyer who will pay full price. The original price of your timeshare included marketing fees and sales commissions, so you paid more at the resort than the true value of your timeshare. Buyers know those fees and commissions aren’t factored in to resale prices, so buyers will be expecting to pay only a fraction of what you originally paid.

The benefit of selling your Hawaii timeshare is being able to make a responsible exit from your timeshare and its maintenance fees, and selling on the resale market allows you to make some money in the process. 

How Hawaii Timeshare Resales Work

To put your Hawaii timeshare on the resale market, you should have all of the ownership documentation you received when you initially purchased the timeshare. This documentation should include the deed or trust certificate and original purchase and sales agreement.

You’ll also need to know specific information about your Hawaii timeshare to make sure prospective buyers can easily see what they’ll be getting with their purchase. This information includes:

• Your resort brand, if applicable, and where in Hawaii it’s located

• The time of year and season in which you own

• Whether your Hawaii timeshare is a fixed week (the same time each year) or a floating week, which enables flexible booking

• The unit size and basic bedroom/bathroom layout details

• Whether your ownership is annual or biennial

• The number of points you own, how many points the buyer can purchase, and if your points will transfer

However, even if you have all of the necessary details and documentation, you still need an effective method to sell your timeshare to a qualified buyer.
