Frequently asked questions

Straight answers for timeshare owners

These general answers can help you prepare, compare options, and recognize the questions that require a review of your specific agreement.

What happens during a free timeshare exit consultation?

We listen to your situation, review the information you have available, and explain possible next steps. The consultation is free, and there is no obligation to move forward.

Can Freedom Ownership Group guarantee my cancellation?

No specific outcome should be assumed or promised before the agreement and circumstances are reviewed. The developer, ownership type, payment status, documents, state, and other facts can affect the available options and outcome.

How much does timeshare cancellation assistance cost?

Freedom’s service fees generally begin at $5,000 and may be higher depending on factors such as the mortgage balance, number of contracts, developers involved, and work required. Any proposed fee and payment terms should be provided in writing before you agree to service.

How long does the process take?

There is no guaranteed completion date. A working estimate may be discussed after the documents and circumstances are reviewed; some matters may take substantially less or more time than others.

Does Freedom Ownership Group provide legal advice?

No. Freedom Ownership Group is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. The initial conversation focuses on understanding your circumstances and discussing the available service process. Legal advice or representation must come from a licensed attorney, and the role and terms of any attorney involvement should be explained in writing.

Can Freedom Ownership Group work with timeshare owners nationwide?

Freedom Ownership Group reviews inquiries from timeshare owners across the United States. Availability and options can depend on the owner’s state, developer, ownership type, agreement, account status, and other facts, so not every matter will qualify for service.

What information should I have ready?

If available, gather your purchase agreement, latest maintenance-fee or loan statement, and recent correspondence from the resort. You can still request a consultation if you do not have every document yet.

What should I do first if I want to leave a timeshare?

Start by gathering your agreement, recent statements, loan information, and resort correspondence. If the purchase was recent, check the contract immediately for rescission instructions and deadlines. You can also ask the resort whether it offers a surrender or deed-back program.

Should I contact the resort before hiring outside help?

It is often worth asking the resort about direct surrender, deed-back, hardship, or other owner-exit programs. Eligibility varies, and some programs may require the account to be current or paid in full.

Is a refund provision the same as a cancellation guarantee?

No. A refund provision describes when money may be returned under specified contract terms; it does not necessarily promise a particular cancellation outcome. Read the conditions, exclusions, service-stage allocations, and client responsibilities in the written agreement because the agreement itself controls.

Do I have to pay the entire service fee upfront?

Payment terms depend on the written proposal and service agreement offered for the matter. Ask for the complete fee, payment schedule, responsibilities, and refund provisions in writing before signing or paying.

How can I evaluate whether a timeshare cancellation company is legitimate?

Confirm the company’s identity and contact information, read the entire service agreement, understand who will perform the work, and require the scope, fees, responsibilities, cancellation terms, and refund language in writing. Be cautious of pressure, vague promises, and guaranteed outcomes.

Is professional timeshare cancellation assistance right for me?

That depends on your agreement, ownership type, account status, available resort programs, goals, and comfort handling the matter yourself. Start by gathering your records and asking the resort about any direct surrender, deed-back, or hardship options before comparing paid assistance.

Should I stop paying maintenance fees or loan payments?

Do not make that decision based only on general website information. Missed payments may have contractual, collection, credit, or legal consequences. Review your agreement and consider qualified financial or legal advice before changing payments.

Could the process affect my credit?

Credit consequences depend on the account, payment history, actions taken by the developer or lender, and other circumstances. Freedom Ownership Group does not provide credit or legal advice. Ask specifically about possible reporting, collection, foreclosure, and tax consequences before making payment decisions.

Can I try to leave my timeshare on my own?

Yes. Some owners begin by reviewing rescission rights, contacting the resort about surrender or deed-back programs, or exploring legitimate resale or transfer options. The Timeshare Exit Options guide explains these starting points and when professional or legal advice may be appropriate.

Important: These answers are general educational information and are not legal or financial advice. Your agreement, state, resort, payment status, and other facts may change the options available to you.
