Vacation Property Resales, Inc
Paid big bucks to sell my condo, never sold, no refund given

Traveling & Tourism

Owned a timeshare condo with ex-husband. He did not take my name off the deed so to avoid future "maintenance fees" headaches and phone calls about non payment, I contacted a company to sell the condo for me cuz I did not want anything to do with it or my ex anymore.

In Oct I decided to go with Vacation Property Resales Inc. They charged me $539 to list my condo with their advertising company. I was promised my condo would sell in 3 months, but it could take up to 6-12 months to sell. They only needed one name (mine) to list the condo, even though there were 2 names listed on the condo deed (mine AND my ex-husband's). Once my condo sold, the check would be made out to both our names. That should have been my first clue right there...

Well as of April nothing sold. No contacts by them, I always had to contact them. When I asked why the condo hasn't sold yet, I was always given the same dumb answer "Maybe you should lower your asking price." I kept lowering it to the point that it wasn't even worth it anymore.

I filed a complaint with the BBB in May. The company gave me their lame rebuttal and refused a refund. How can they sell my condo without BOTH names on the contract (i.E. Permission from BOTH parties listed on the deed)? It is a real estate deed, and I believe it is ILLEGAL to sell property without all names present! I'm currently waiting for arbitration from the BBB to settle my case. And then I was even told by the BBB that if I DO win my case, the BBB can't make the company pay me back! Grrr
