Location, Location Location: There are only three things that you need to look at when buying a timeshare, and these are it.

This statement is not only false but it is misleading, location, yes in deed, is the number one aspect of buying any piece of property, simply because you cannot move real estate (unless it's a mobile home) you are stuck right where you bought it.

However, utility is probably second in importance, the more utility that you have the greater the trade value, and the resale possibility you'll have. The utility is the size, number of beds and baths, and amenities like decks, balconies, etc.

Next lets look at financing, are you being trampled on by your mortgage lender? This is highly unattractive and will only make your use of the timeshare for all of your days to come and heartache.

Fractional Ownership

A fractional ownership is much like a timeshare in the sense that you only owner a portion of a piece of property, however fraction owner may come with more responcability depending on the terms of the agreement as well as liability. You may own the property , which could be a house, as well as a condo unit, with a limited number of other parties, and you would be the HOA of home owners association, in charge of making rules for the association.
