    Dennis Serpone started the forum topic IF EVERYONE IS SELLING TO THE 'FAMILY' BUYER, WHAT IS YOUR COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE? in the group Group logo of American Resort Development Association (ARDA)American Resort Development Association (ARDA): 1 year, 1 month ago

    At a time where the disposable income of the basic family unit is being decimated from a dozen different directions, what differentiates your project from the myriad of similar resorts? Why would a prospective buyer pick your project over someone else’s? Why would a buyer buy your pproject at ‘RETAIL’ when he can pick up a similar [...]

    Dennis Serpone posted on the forum topic What's the biggest change on the immediate horizon? in the group Group logo of Timeshare ForumTimeshare Forum: 1 year, 1 month ago

    FIVE YEARS? the product that is being sold now has to change in a lot sooner time than 5 yrs. There is a mentality in the timeshare industry that can only remember the recordbreaking years and doesn’t want to face the reality of what is coming. It like the stockbroker who keeps telling his new clients that [...]

    In reply to: Steve Luba posted an update in the group Timeshare: Timeshare delinquencies ended Q2 at 3.61%, down from 4.64% at the end of Q1, according to Fitch Ratings. Timeshare defaults were similarly down to .71% from .83% […] View

    I wonder if the delinquencies are down because owners sold their weeks or relinquished them back to the companies.

    “Where’s the next pot of gold?”
    It’s not going back to the past, cultivating the masses of family buyers. That market, for all intense and purposes, is DEAD. At least in the US. Obama, and his minions in the Congress, are crushing the family’s disposible income. Increases in taxes and fees on everything, increasing cost of energy, and the…[Read more]

      One additional point to consider – the next great Timeshare and Fractional markets are going to be the markets in India – China and Vietnam. Having been in the TS-Frac industry for 25 years now, and for the last two years in Thailand, I have seen it all beginning to move this way. The Asian countries ARE, the next great market.
      Unfortunately, the…[Read more]

    Dennis Serpone posted on the forum topic Costs Per Tour Are Escalating – How Much Do You Pay? in the group Group logo of Timeshare ForumTimeshare: 2 years ago

    Successful tours are down below 10% and cost per tour is escalating quickly. Families, in general, are experiencing unprecedented pressure on their disposable income. Buying a pre-paid vacation is not a priority. Your buyer-base is quickly diminishing. What group has more disposable income, more inclination to travel, and the time to take multiple…[Read more]
