Joint Owner rescission question

jayeshb · Dec 3, 2014

I signed a contract for a timeshare and want to rescind. I read the contract and am in the rescission period. My question is I signed the contract jointly with my wife. Do both of us have to sign the rescission letter? The reason I ask is she is out of town this week. I have already mailed a rescission letter to them as indicated in the contract signed by only me. Does my spouse need to sign it as well?

Thanks.

I believe that both of you will be required to sign.

I doubt if they will check the signatures against the original - If it were me, I'd have someone with similar handwriting sign her name on her behalf.

Or, have her write a letter, sign it and FAX it to you, and then you sign it, and mail it.

Either way - don't miss the deadline.

She also needs to sign a rescission letter within the allowed time. If you still have time have her send one from where she is also referencing the fact that you have already signed and sent yours.

I would not mail them separately - that is likely to confuse the heck out of the TS folks.

I wouldn't either but if the wife is out of town and he already sent one with just his signature, it's better to have two separate than only one with one signature. I doubt he would have time to get her to send a letter to him and then have him sign and send it in time. Depending on where she is it might be wise for him to meet up with her asap and send a single letter.

Ah - I missed that in his post. You are correct!

Thanks will try the suggestions above and send it as a second notice to them. The property is in Vegas but I signed the paperwork in Florida and what I understand of the legal language in the contract I have 10 rescission days instead of 5 allowed for Nevada.

Quickly, write up another RECISSION LETTER ...

Sign your name and then sign her NAME and put under "her" signature an the tale end and lower this being printed ... P.O.A.

POA is power of attorney .... she can do a POA via a scan in an email to and 2 witnesses ... have her include a photo copy of driver's license on the copy of the POA in YOUR CERTIFIED LETTER to TIMESHARE sales staff...

Or do as Denise suggests ... get someone who writes like her to just do the signature ....

If she is at a timeshare / hotel they have fax and or email service

If othing else both of you can use UPS store or Fed Ex Office (FKNA Kinkos) to get a signature back for mailing certified
