Procedure to sell Timeshares
- Please review Peterson’s Waterfront Timeshare Transfer and Resale Policy. Due to several fraudlent timeshare selling companies your association has adopted a Timeshare Transfer and Resale Policy. We apoplogize for any inconvenice but fraudulent transfers contribute to the large sum within our allowance for doubful accounts. This measure is to protect other owner’s who are diligent in paying their fees but end up ultimately having to pay for non-payors.
- Check with Peterson’s Waterfront for balance on account. Balance must be paid in full prior to or out of sales proceeds at escrow closing.
- Understand your obligations to any vacation clubs you belong to or are involved in that are tied to your unit.
- Prepare a Purchase and Sale agreement to be signed by both buyer and seller.
- It’s recommended you Contact First American Title of Chelan 509-682-5623 to order title and open Escrow.
