UPFRONT FEE RESALE COMPANIES ILLEGAL IN FLORIDA ???? (by R P.):

According to the latest AARP Bulletin publication in the Ask Our Experts advice section, upfront fee reale companies are illegal in the state of Florida. If this is so, then why hasn't the law intervened and shut down the hundreds of timeshare upfront fee resale companies in that state?

Quote from AARP...."Or if you want to try to sell the property (timeshare), use only a timeshare broker who takes a commission after the property (timeshare) is sold. Some outfits want an upfront fee before listing the property, but that would be a big mistake (AND ILLEGAL IN FLORIDA) ........"
