Tips and rules for Resale and Rental
(especially with Anfi)
What has to be paid attention for with resale?
If you
want to resale private you must take care about all
necessary steps by yourself and follow proceedings that
insure that not only the buyer but also you get your right,
that means your money.
Pay
always attention to the relevant rules of the resort.
Even if
the use of services provided by notaries or trusted persons
will cost the buyer money this is recommended. Only then the
agreed step by step proceeding is granted. The only secure
alternative for the seller is cash in advance. As a buyer
you may certainly not accept that.
Please
inform the buyer for sake of fairness before the resale that
private bayed weeks currently have other rights than
original weeks bought from Anfi.
For example you currently cannot join the Anfi Vacation
Club.
The seller
normally does not pay transaction fees .
Be alarmed if
you trade dot directly with the buyer. As a rule with this
"deals for friends" there will be hidden provisions you
will not hear of.
You should always deal
directly with the buyer. Only then you really will learn
what value your week has.
Mediator
fees are acceptable if they are shown transparently or if it
is known that the service is a "business" to make money and
not a "friendship service" or a so called service of a
national timeshare club. Fees are normally not paid by the
seller.
You should
be especially cautious if so called honorary offices and
mediator services are mixed.
Anfi offers a
rental program. Before you rent out private you should inform
yourself about this program as an alternative.
If you want to
rent out or to rent private you must take care about the
necessary steps by yourself. In some cases you need an
additional and not cost free guest certificate.
Pay
always attention to the relevant rules of the resort.
For rent you
need the security that you can use the week without
restrictions.
If you want to use a week from a timeshare holder you need for
security a copy of the proof that the maintenance fee has been paid and the
written confirmation or guest certificate that you can use the
week as a guest. Of course you should carry these documents with you on
your travel to Gran Canary.
Be alarmed if
you get enquiries or offers from so called friends. According to
our experience this are hidden commercial deals with exceptional
profit. Serious
agents present
themselves.
The achieved
prices for rent out are extremely low compared with the market
value. If you are not sure about the market value of a 5-star
apartment you should consult travel catalogues or simply ask Anfi
del Mar for the cost of a week to rent. Please do not compare
apples with windfalls. It is a pity that realistic prices
cannot be archived due to the great offer and low demand. We take an 4-digit
price as realistic in medium-term.
An offer for
rent below the maintenance fee is not serious and should be
rejected. Such big gifts are only for the family.
