Our Closing Process: Step-by-Step
Every timeshare transfer is handled with precision and care. Once you request a quote or start your transfer online, our team begins by preparing and verifying all necessary legal documents. Both parties then review, sign, and notarize the deed to ensure it’s legally binding. We handle the next steps on your behalf—recording the deed with the county and notifying the resort of the ownership change.
Throughout the process, all funds remain safely in escrow until every condition of the transaction is fulfilled. Once complete, ownership is officially transferred, and your closing is finalized. Most timeshare closings are completed within four to six weeks, depending on the specific resort’s requirements.
Legal and Security Protections
Resort Closings proudly completes timeshare transfers and closings in all 50 U.S. states, as well as Mexico, Canada and the Caribbean. No matter where your timeshare is located or which resort you own with, our team ensures that every detail is handled correctly and securely – whether you’re buying selling, or gifting a timeshare.
Choosing Resort Closings means working with a licensed, bonded, and insured escrow company that’s recognized nationwide for its accuracy and integrity. Every document involved in your closing is reviewed by experienced legal professionals, ensuring compliance with both resort and county recording laws. All funds are protected in escrow and only released when every term of the agreement has been met. From documentation to disbursement, your closing is handled with complete transparency and legal oversight.
Transferring a timeshare without professional assistance can lead to costly mistakes, unverified buyers and even fraudulent activity. Errors in deed recording or incomplete resort notifications can delay or invalidate the transfer entirely – we completely eliminate those risks by using verified escrow procedures, attorney-reviewed documentation and thorough title checks. Our Timeshare Scam Hotline provides an added layer of protection, helping you confirm that every part of your transaction is legitimate. From the first document to the final signature, we keep communication open and transparent so you always know where your closing stands.

Our pricing depends on your resort and the level of service you choose, but most timeshare transfers range between $200 and $500. We never charge upfront fees, and all payments are held in our licensed escrow account until the closing is complete. This ensures your transaction is secure, transparent, and fully protected.
How long does a timeshare closing take?
Most timeshare closings are completed within four to six weeks, depending on the specific resort’s requirements and how quickly both parties sign and return documents. Our team monitors your transfer every step of the way and keeps you informed until the process is finalized.
What does Resort Closings do during the transfer?
Resort Closings manages every step of the legal transfer process. We prepare and review all required documents, hold funds safely in escrow, record the deed with the county, notify the resort of the ownership change, and confirm that all conditions have been met before releasing funds.

Can I complete a timeshare transfer on my own?

Jason M2025-04-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very legit and great with communication. I have now purchased two Hilton Grand Vacations timeshares through this company. We negotiated a fair price, I paid a small deposit, and once everything went through to closing I paid the remainder. They updated me at each stage and took about 1.5 months from start to finish. Timeshares get a bad rap and rightfully so, Hilton sells these things for thousands and upon thousands of dollars and then you pay annual costs. That is why you should ALWAYS pay from a reseller like Resorts Closing Inc instead of the developers. I paid pennies on the dollar. I know I know, I sound like an advertisement, but I went to timeshare sales presentation in Hawaii a few years ago. I was wooed and signed on the dotted line. I then started researching and found Resorts Closing with a listing on eBay. I reached out to them and got the ball rolling and immediately exercised my right to cancel on the timeshare purchase from Hilton. I got a timeshare out of Vegas because taxes are lower, but I can stay anywhere. In the end, not only did I pay 80% less than what I had been sold by Hilton, but I get more points, more often, and I pay much lower annual fees. No brainer. Ok, off my soap box...if you are hesitant, don't be. Brad V2025-02-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Resort Closings Inc. provided excellent service for both of my timeshare purchases. John and his team were professional, knowledgeable about the market, and offered a reasonable price. They efficiently handled the transfer, escrow, and closing for both a timeshare I found independently and one I purchased directly from them. I highly recommend Resort Closings Inc. for anyone looking to buy timeshares on the resale market or in need of escrow services when selling your timeshare. They are a great company to work with! George B2025-01-16Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. One of the best days of the year when I found Timeshare Specialists (TS) and their sister escrow and closing company, Resort Closings (RC). I found Andrew at TS via an ebay search where I noticed a continuous stream of timeshare sales occurring within a week and a 100% rating @ ebay. I built up the nerve to contact them after Hilton told me they would take 18 months to sell while issuing nonstop warnings about scams. Best decision I ever made. 100% truth and honesty at every turn including incredible clarity on all fees (and who was responsible to pay them) which were identical to what Hilton told me they would be if sold through Hilton. Additionally, they were much faster than they indicated and provided almost immediate responses to my questions along with regular updates. In contrast, Hilton answered questions every 7 days. Took 6 weeks from signing with TS to finished transfer via Resort Closings. Danni at RC was the best ever. So efficient, quick, and CLEARLY knew exactly how the Hilton transfer process worked which allowed her to answer every question with confidence and accuracy. Knowing that my funds and title transfer would be handled through a certified escrow company made the process all that much better. Thank you to the whole team for being so wonderful. Stephen W2024-01-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We recommend Resort Closings to get rid of your timeshare wholely and completely and professionally.

We would like to recognize Resort Closings but, more importantly Michelle W for the outstanding job she did in transferring our time share in Mexico. Her professionalism and attention to detail is second to none. She was diligent, kept us informed trough out the whole process. She literally took our transfer like we were her own family. Michelle it has been an honor to have met you and we will always be appreciative of your diligent work to get the job done. Thank you! We definitely recommend Resort Closings and specially Michelle W. Job well done! Manuel and Juana Costales Tylar Y2023-03-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I do not typically do reviews however, resort closing was honestly so helpful with my timeshare closing. Even though, it took a while to get things figured out that were not their fault, the company was willing to support me throughout the process and eventually helped me get everything I needed. Craig C2023-03-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Closed recently on a timeshare transaction that was handled by Jinger and the entire process was super smooth. Kudos to Jinger for the outstanding, professional service she provided. Meir S2022-11-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was a professional and fast transaction. Communication was superb. Jinger Jewell over delivered, she promised to finalize in 8 weeks but did it in 3 weeks time. Every call or email was promptly answered. I would use them again and I highly recommend using their services. Darrell H2022-10-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I wish to thank John Kushman of Resort Closings, Inc for his professionalism and efficiency in handling my purchase of timeshare resale points in Fiesta Americana Vacation Club (FAVC). He is very experienced and knowledgeable about the timeshare market and works with you throughout the transfer process. I highly recommend him and his company and intend to use him again in the future. Rick K2021-08-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Want to thank Kelly, John, and the rest of the staff for really helping close our For Sale By Owner purchase. They offered great direction. Always returned calls and emails. We had considered a couple of other timeshare closing companies who would only work with you if you paid an upfront retainer fee. Resort Closings was fine getting paid on the final product at the end. We had a few wrinkles which took a fair amount of time to iron out that were out of RCI's control. Thanks for your patience and great service. Would use again. RK
