Q: Are there any hidden risks involved when purchasing a WorldMark® Ownership that has been previously owned?
A: No. Wyndham® is a wonderful company with friendly service. WorldMark's Transfer Department will not complete the transfer unless everything is in order, ensuring the security of both the seller and buyer.
Q: How do I know if the seller still owes money to Wyndham Resorts or WorldMark, and if so, will these liens be paid off before closing?
A: This information is part of the contract we send to you. If you are a cash buyer, we will pay off any dues, principal, or miscellaneous charges as part of the transfer process. If you are assuming a membership with an active loan by taking over the payments of the seller, our contract will clearly detail your responsibilities.
Q: How long does it take to complete the process of buying or selling?
A: Generally it takes WorldMark 4 weeks to audit the seller's account and 8-9 weeks to issue transfer documents. Once issued, all parties must sign, notarize and return original notarized documents to Timeshare Angels Transfers Department. The combined documents will then be shipped to WorldMark for processing. Processing time varies due to WorldMark's current workload, but can generally take between 4-7 months to finalize. All WorldMark processing times are subject to change at any time, and without warning.
Q: If my new ownership includes 6,000 credits, can I increase the credit level?
A: Yes. You can actually buy an additional Ownership contract and combine the two, thus paying only one maintenance fee which will be less than the two single fees. WorldMark will keep your existing owner number and anniversary. Once the transfer goes through the Maintenance Fees will be prorated and then adjusted to fit the maintenance fee tier level based on the total amount of Annual Credits you own at the end of the transfer. You can even purchase credits in blocks of 1000 from Wyndham® through their upgrade department. Example, if you own 6000 credits, you can easily jump to 8000 through a purchase of 2000 additional credits.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Owners may only combine one membership per calendar year regardless of the number of memberships they hold, per WorldMark policy effective February 2013.

Q: What is WorldMark by Wyndham (formerly Trendwest®)?
A. A WorldMark® ownership is like having a vacation home at the lake, the mountains, and the beach at a fraction of the cost of a second home with none of the headaches. Comparable in price to traditional timeshares that offer only one location, for one week at a time, a WorldMark ownership gives you more than 60 locations to choose from. WorldMark is a points-based (referred to as Vacation Credits), recurring membership which is renewed in perpetuity and may be willed to one's heirs.
1. You are not given a set period of time to use the Club, but rather may book any dates available in the resorts network
2. You do not own in any given property - instead, you have the right to use all properties within the Club
3. Each year your credits are renewed and deposited into your account on the first day of your anniversary month - all you need to do is to pay your maintenance fee, book your usage dates, and enjoy!
4. WorldMark may be willed to your heirs - a lifetime of vacations for you to enjoy, and then you may give it to your children, friends, or a charity for them to utilize as well.
WorldMark also allows traveling owners with families the extra space and privacy, while avoiding the expense, worry, and inconvenience of having to split up the family into two or more rooms. The kitchens eliminate the need to eat every meal out, further saving money and stretching precious vacation dollars. What's more, when you can go on vacation easily (and economically), you'll simply go on vacation more often. It's time that you can use to reduce stress, relax with loved ones, or participate in your favorite activities more often.
Q: What is WorldMark by Wyndham resort timeshare ownership?
A: Wyndham develops markets and manages WorldMark resort properties worldwide. Wyndham transfers ownership of these resort properties debt-free to WorldMark who ends up owning, operating and maintaining them. The WorldMark by Wyndham ownership program offers more than 75 resorts around the world to owners that purchase credits. The reason Wyndham entered the timeshare market was because it found traditional timeshare ownership to be too restrictive.
Q: What's the difference between annual credits and available credits?
A: Good question. Annual credits are the credits that make up a WorldMark membership. If you have a 6,000 credit membership, you have 6,000 Annual credits. Available credits, on the other hand, are the credits that are added to your account on your anniversary and then exchanged for your vacation accommodations. If you think of your account as a bank of credits, your available credits are what you have left to spend.
Q: What are Available Credits?
A: When you purchase a WorldMark® Ownership contract from a previous owner, there are often unused credits leftover. You inherit all unused credits or reservations unless otherwise negotiated.
Q: When do credits expire?
A: Credits are good for two years in a WorldMark membership and then up to 13 months when applied to a reservation.
Q: What do I need to know about Bonus Time?
A: Currently the price is $0.063 cents per credit with a minimum fee of $65 per night. You can use 1-4 days per week, 52 weeks per year. You are allowed one weekend per quarter. Bonus Time restrictions may apply, please call WorldMark Reservations at #800-457-0103 for information.
Q: What is an exchange?
A. An exchange is the depositing of your week with an exchange and then the requesting of a week to use in place of the week you are depositing. The exchange company does not have to find someone to use your week before they will give you an exchange. Once you deposit the week you are done with it. It is very important to deposit your week early to have more power with your week. Each exchange company has slightly different rules for exchanging. There is a fee involved in exchanging your week. What an exchanges can do for you:

Q: What is a "season" in timeshare?
A. Seasons are depicted by the exchange companies in colors. RCI color codes are red, white and blue pertaining to exchanging during certain times of the year for each resort based on how high the demand is for time of year.
Red time = greater demand
White time = average demand
Blue time = lesser demand
For Interval International, the same concept applies, but the I.I. colors for the same seasonal demand periods, are Red, Yellow, and Green.
Q: Do you recommend that I combine memberships or keep them separate?
A: This is a decision you need to make alone. Combining memberships allows for lower annual dues and simplicity of ownership versus keeping two separate accounts. However, keeping them separate may save you an occasional housekeeping charge or allow more than one quarterly bonus time weekend.
Q: Can I exchange with RCI if I purchase from you?
A: Yes, but as with all WorldMark memberships, you must also belong to RCI. We now offer the Opportunity Club, to make exchanging your WorldMark credits easy and fun. Membership in the Opportunity Club comes with a membership to RCI, however can be purchased separately by calling WorldMark Owner Services directly! Read more about the Opportunity Club to get more details.

For Interval International, the same concept applies, but the I.I. colors for the same seasonal demand periods, are Red, Yellow, and Green.
Q: Do you recommend that I combine memberships or keep them separate?
A: This is a decision you need to make alone. Combining memberships allows for lower annual dues and simplicity of ownership versus keeping two separate accounts. However, keeping them separate may save you an occasional housekeeping charge or allow more than one quarterly bonus time weekend.
Q: Can I exchange with RCI if I purchase from you?
A: Yes, but as with all WorldMark memberships, you must also belong to RCI. We now offer the Opportunity Club, to make exchanging your WorldMark credits easy and fun. Membership in the Opportunity Club comes with a membership to RCI, however can be purchased separately by calling WorldMark Owner Services directly! Read more about the Opportunity Club to get more details.
Q: What is the Adventure Club?
A: The Adventure Club is an incidental benefit offered by Wyndham Resorts, Inc. to owners of WorldMark, the Club. Participation in the Adventure Club program is separate from membership in WorldMark, the Club and can be modified or discontinued at any time. Please call WorldMark Owner Services for additional information.
