What is a post card company
To most people “We will make you an offer on your timeshare” means “We will offer to buy your timeshare from you” - but that isn’t what a “postcard company” (PCCs) means.
What a PCC means is you will pay them cash money if you agree to turn over the title to them.
In most cases, you will give the PCC a power of attorney (POA) which they will then use to attemt to sell your Timeshare. If they suceed that is likely the end of it and you are out a few hundreds or thousands of dollars – it's if they fail to sell the timshare the real problems can start.
More than a few "clients" of the PCC's have found out much to their chagrin months or years later that they still own the timeshare and are still liable for the maintenance fees because the PCC didn’t sell it, didn’t transfer the title, didn’t do anything other than collect the "clients" money.
In some other cases the PCC simply deeds the timshare back to the resorts a step the owner could do themselves usually for free or at least a lot less than the PCC charges.
Many PCCs list the timeshare on eBay at rock bottom prices, usually if they fail to sell they simply quit trying and having never actually transferred the title you the client find out the hard way that you still legally own it.
They are named PCC because they used to send out post card's to prospective "clients" - now they send internet spam.
