We have recently gone to a couple of free dinner presentations where groups want you to sign over your timeshares to them and then buy, (for a number of thousands of dollars), what I would call a "destination club" membership. They, "of course" say that for $299/week you can go to all the resorts you now go for without paying any maintenance fees. We didn't bite since we know that what they are selling is left over inventory and would couldn't get, say, Honolulu anywhere as often as we do or want.
However, their main selling point is that you get rid of your timeshare ownership and maintenance which they claim your estate CAN'T get rid of even if it is or is or is not in your will or estate. They claim that your dependents will have the burden forever due to a new national law that was passed a couple of years ago that says you can't give or will your timeshares to someone who doesn't want them and won't pay the maintenance for them. I know that there will be a lot of comments on this subject about what "might me true", but is there any accurate information on this subject that we all can learn from.
