Best Reasons to Finance Your Next Hyatt Resale Purchase

Fidelity Resales is the best timeshare resale company to help you sell your timeshare

Financing your next Hyatt Residence resale package might not be on your radar; however, paying cash up front may not be the best financial decision either once you discover reasons you may want to finance your next Hyatt purchase from the experts at Fidelity Resales.

Why Finance Your Timeshare                                                                                                Hyatt Sunset Harbor Resort

Having cash in hand and sending it to the escrow company at closing is great if you can afford it, but the fact is that many people scrimp and save for several months or even years to pay for their Hyatt resale purchase.  If saving has been this difficult for you, it’s not a good idea to pay with your savings in full.

Financing allows you to spread out some of that cost, so you aren’t parting with all of your money at once.  You can use a hefty chunk, or as little as 20% of the purchase price, as a down payment, but wiping out your savings is ill-advised.  This is because it’s a much wiser decision to leave an emergency fund in your savings account for those unexpected expenses that may arise.

Furthermore, you could use some of that pay-in-full cash to actually go on vacation with and enjoy what you just purchased. This is called “balancing the fun with the funds”. Why pay $10,000 today for 10 years of future accommodations when you can pay $1,000 each year (plus a small amount of interest) for ten years and enjoy the same accommodations for the same amount of time?  Remember, the shorter term the loan the less interest you pay, so we recommend loans of five years or less.

This doesn’t mean you should take on a loan bigger than you can afford.  Your agent here at Fidelity Resales can provide you with a few options and price ranges on the vacation package you want.  Use this Easy Payment Calculator to see prices vs. down payments which result in different monthly payment amounts.  You should pick the one that you are most comfortable with without stretching your budget.

Timeshares Are Not Investments

Although this factual statement is true, investing in your family’s happiness is priceless.  If you are planning on vacationing as often as your lifestyle and careers allow, purchasing a Hyatt Vacation Ownership is a great choice.  It’s well known that the superior accommodations over hotels will bring many happy memories and avoid those discomforts of sharing small spaces with little amenities.

Building Good Credit Helps

It’s implied in the “cash is king model” that all debt is inherently bad. This is not wholeheartedly true.  If you paid cash for everything you would not build any credit and this can hurt you.  Having good credit when applying for car insurance or a job can verify you are responsible and able to follow through on your commitments.  You also earn lower interest rates on large purchases by having credit established.

Financing a Hyatt resale purchase can also help increase your credit score.  By using a lender that reports to credit bureaus you will benefit from making those payments on time.  Contact Vacation Club Loans for a free credit evaluation and quote if you want to learn more.

Save Even More Money!

benefits of timeshare financing: save money vacation now pay laterRegardless of the price and down payment you choose, make sure your loan does not have additional monthly fees, unnecessary closing costs added, or a prepayment penalty.  These all add to the total cost and can erase all the savings you made on your original purchase through the resale market.  You should be able to make your monthly payments on just the principle and interest plus add additional principle payments anytime you like without penalty.
