You can do much better on the price. Between now and Dec 31st you will find better opportunities. Grand Desert deeds can be bought at less then $100 all in maintenance fees little less at 4.73/1000 plus program fee on resale deed at .58/1000.203,000 annual points at Wyndham Kingsgate for $400 total. Maintenance fees are $103/month. No other fees or costs. Is this a good deal?
Where do I find these deals? The cheapest adds I'm finding are on eBay, and it seems these people are fishy or driving up the bid. Other deals I've seen maybe a cheap buying price, but then the buyer is responsible for the closing fees and transfer fee which can get quite expensive.You can do much better on the price.

We all know @dgalati isnt going to do that.But, if he would pay the transfer and closing costs, that would help her out a lot!

I know, but it sounds like the kind of deal he looks for!

@dgalati are you still giving away your Natl Harbor 105k EY and Grand Desert 105k EY next month? If you give to OP, her Monthly MF and PF goes down from $114/month ($11/month PF) to $89/month. Then she’d have 210k points instead of 203k points. Of course, it would cost OP $1000 total ($500 each) to transfer both deeds to her.
This is a advice forum not the marketplace to try and sell. That's why I gave the advice to look for a deal all in under $100! Between now and Dec 31st is the best time to buy at a purchase price close to $0 cost and no resort transfer and no closing fees . FYI the best time to sell or give away without paying maintenance and transfer fees March -Aug

See attached maint fee chart for comparision, as a few have stated it is cheaper over time to pay a few bucks more for a lower maintenance fee deed. I have attached a post from Drepublic it has a good chart to compare costs.@dgalati are you still giving away your Natl Harbor 105k EY and Grand Desert 105k EY next month?

Of course, it would take 2 years for OP to break even on the extra $600 before she starts truly saving $25/month.
Your question seems simple enough and it will get you many different responses on this forum. Everything from a simple yes or no to detailed financial breakdowns that make me want to drink. A lot! It will all be very good advice. There’s only one problem; it is all from our particular point of view! In my initial reply, I told you I thought it was a good deal and I would jump on it. I know that because I am currently closing on a similar deal. I had been looking for about a month, spending hours online every day looking for a deal that would work for me and my family. I’m retired and I have plenty of time to do that. However, it isn’t how I want to spend a lot of my time. So, I jumped on a deal in which the 2 contracts were given to me and I am paying closing costs and transfer fees, $900 total. The MFs are a little above average but that’s a few dollars a month and not anything that is going to bankrupt me or keep me from sleeping at night. In a couple of months, I’ll have my points and more vacation time. Meanwhile, I don’t have to spend hours every day continuing to look for that perfect deal.203,000 annual points at Wyndham Kingsgate for $400 total. Maintenance fees are $103/month. No other fees or costs. Is this a good deal?
Now that's a whole different subject. Lets stick to OP'S question.And, he can rent from VIPs!
Where did you purchase these from?Just play it safe and buy a Grand Desert deed. You can't go wrong with Las Vegas. No natural disasters causing special assessments. Cheap to maintain. I have multiple deeds and I will screenshot their costs. There's two different prices. $4.73 per thousand for tower 1 and 2, and $4.82 per thousand for tower 3. Both are worth it. CWA costs $5.99 per thousand so I save $204 a year compared to 168,000 CWA points.
I paid about $350 for both of these deeds last January.

IMO a fair deal. During December you'll probably find it for a bit less however, you wont have the points till spring.203,000 annual points at Wyndham Kingsgate for $400 total. Maintenance fees are $103/month. No other fees or costs. Is this a good deal?

What you were offering was not that great of a deal! It was a 126,000 odd year deed no points available until 2021 and buyer paid all closing costs $514. Buyer also would of paid maintenance fees after transfer for at least 8 months at $28 per month without use. With only 126,000 points you only recieve one transaction credit also. 154,000 points gives you 2.I was giving one away and I caught hell for it so I decided to keep it. Join TUG and then you can access the Marketplace. I'd much prefer to do business with a person and not an exit company.
And always remember, most of these resellers get their inventory from elderly people or those who may not be able to afford it and these people have paid them to get rid of their timeshares. And then we don't give it second thought as we send them SSN, driver's licenses, full names and addresses, account numbers, credit card numbers AND a notarized document as a buyer or a seller that can easily be used for fraud. That "cheap comes out expensive" quote can be painfully true.
I plan to hop on a flight to Hawaii next week to try and clean up a mess that a closing company has dumped into my name. I need to get court orders. My next stop will be Orlando to go to the closing company itself.
Be careful who you deal with.
