Is it hard to get rid of a timeshare?
Since the time period and terms of a typical timeshare contract are forever, and since they don’t usually include exit clauses outside a rescission period (more on that later), it can feel very hard to get out of your timeshare.
How much does it cost to terminate a timeshare?
The timeshare developer won’t pay much, but you can usually expect to receive between $1,000 – $2,000 depending on the timeshare, number of points, week number etc. Other times you’ll need to pay a fee. The fee can be anywhere from $500 – $3000, but it is usually less than a timeshare exit company or law firm.
Can I cancel my timeshare on my own?
While it’s usually not necessary to provide a reason for canceling the timeshare contract, you do need to explicitly state that the purpose of the letter is to rescind the contract. A statement like “I am contacting you within the rescission period to cancel this timeshare contract” will usually work.

What happens if I breach my timeshare contract?
Breach of contract, by law, may release you from obligations under that contract. Termination occurs when you end the contract for reasons other than breach.

Important features to note are: location, time of day, date, names of those present, misrepresentation of facts, and ways/instances you were pressured. Use the information you recall and have recorded to write a detailed and concise letter specifically asking for the rescission of your timeshare contract.
Can You get Your deposit back from a timeshare contract?
You may cancel the contract and get your deposit back during this time. Once that period is over, the company might have you believe that you cannot cancel the contract anymore and that you are perpetually bound to pay the increasing maintenance fees for ownership. This is not true.
