IMHO a buy back program would clearly be in about everyones best interest and would force upfront fee scammers to more lucrative endeavors after publicity! Likewise, when word got out PCC guys would move on as no knowledgeable person would pay them when ?????? will give owner few bucks for.
The problem is who will unwrite. Clearly HOA, which is us owners, does not have the expertise, time, inclination and resources.
So, by default it has to be Developer. As we all know, one seldom purchases a new virgin TS. Once it has been slept in, it is used.
But, developer has to establish a difference in his "brand new superior units" and owner used unit to justify his price.
This is done by impairing value of used merchandise. Like Wyndham, no VIP bennies or Plus Partner, others no day use, others extra fees, restricted booking parameters, etc.
No matter how you slice it when Developer sells $200K condo for $2 million, like tulip bulbs at some point like touter of older bladder buster beer stock for $10 a share when company is virtually bankrupt(out of alcohol) there are no buyers just belated sellers
Just take property taxes on $200K condo are very ball park $1, 000-$1,200 while if a 2 million dollar TS $2,500 to $3,000.
While I am over simplifying since current sales model is working no change on horizon. However, appears to be a significant increase in rescissions which at some point will force Developers to rethink as resale info becomes more readily available.
Major retailers have bargain basements, outlet centers, 1/2 price racks , etc. that allow to get rid of impaired merchandise without tainting image. Limited selection but if right for you, go for it!
