Timeshare complexes were all the rage a few years back and everyone was keen on them ,however they don't seem to be so popular these days, and are selling really cheap down under.

Personally i have toyed with the idea from time to time, but figure with the cost of maintenance i could have a weeks holiday somewhere different every year anyhow, i know with some you can transfer to different timeshares worldwide, but i also had heard it is often hard to get your particular week where you want.

It really is up to you, i am not against them, but just feel i would rather not be tied into something that may be hard to get out of and of course the maintenance fees will go up as time goes on, and you can stay anywhere without any fuss or bother for that fee for a weeks holiday probably if you look around and choose to go in the low seasons, anyhow just my two cents worth.

Good luck with your decision.
