How Do You Sell A Diamond Resorts Timeshare?
If you’re ready to sell your Diamond Resorts timeshare, we recommend calling Hilton Grand Vacations or Diamond Resorts first. They can speak to you about your options that are specific to your ownership. It’s possible that Hilton might buy back your timeshare or provide great advice about what to do with it, so be sure to give them a call first!

For buyers looking to become an owner for less a Diamond Resorts timeshare resale allows them to do so. Before we dive more into the selling process, we want to provide you with a few suggestions to consider before selling. That way you can be sure selling is the best option for you.
How To Get Out Of A Diamond Resorts Contract
If you’re no longer wanting to use your timeshare or there is a reason you’re unable to use it, then you may be looking for your options. Getting out of a timeshare contract can be a complicated process, so it’s important to know what to expect.
Can I Cancel My Diamond Timeshare?
You may be wondering if you can cancel your timeshare. Generally, you cannot just simply cancel a timeshare unless you do so within the specified rescission period of your contract. The rescission period varies by state and is dependent on the state where your timeshare is located. Refer to your paperwork or call your resort to see if this period has already passed. As timeshares are legally binding contracts, you cannot simply walk away from your ownership. Deeded vacation ownership contracts are similar to homeownership contracts. Just like you can’t easily cancel a house deed, getting out of a timeshare contract isn’t always a simple task.

Beware of Exit Companies
There are timeshare exit companies and cancellation companies that will promise to cancel your timeshare contract. They may contact you out of the blue saying that they can cancel your timeshare or have a potential buyer for you. It is an illegal practice for timeshare companies to call unsolicited, so definitely be wary if you receive a random call from an exit company. Also, if someone ever suggests simply to stop paying your maintenance fees, do not listen to them. That is a really bad idea since timeshares are legally binding contracts and not paying the fees could negatively affect your credit. We suggest you be wary of such schemes because similar to other contracts, timeshare deeds cannot just be canceled.
Exit Your Diamond Timeshare Safely
The best way to avoid companies that aren’t trustworthy is to make sure they are approved by ARDA. ARDA stands for the American Resort Development Association. Headquartered in Washington D.C., the team at ARDA works to protect the timeshare industry and its owners from fraud and timeshare scams.

From live concerts to private parties, owners can take part in a ton of unbelievable (and exclusive) opportunities.
Diamond points are used to book vacations, but can also be used to make vacations better! Owners can use their points to book flights or rental cars, which is great when you’re trying to vacation on a budget. In addition, owners can use their points to book cruises! There are guided tours in various cities around the world that only Diamond owners can enjoy. What a great way to experience something new just by using your existing Diamond points!
Since Hilton acquired Diamond Resorts, Hilton’s portfolio of resorts has combined with Diamond Resort’s portfolio to boast over 150 resorts for its owners to travel to. Over time as they continue to merge the two companies together owners will be able to further enhance their ownership with new resorts and locations.
