Terms and Conditions
ResortVP is a consumer advertising company that is not a real-estate broker. The advertising programs promote the
sale and rental of luxury timeshare properties through a variety of different creative solutions. The main goal is to
promote maximum exposure and increase usage from new buyers and renters at substantially discounted prices.
ResortVP is not involved in any negotiation for sale/rent, closing, or procuring of buyers. ResortVP forwards all
inquiries about vacation properties advertised on its network directly to owners and allows the owner to negotiate
the sale/rental of his/her vacation property.
ResortVP cannot and does not appraise the value/rental price of vacation properties. The sale/rental price is
established by the property owner, and ResortVP will make no representation as to the sale/rental price that an owner
may receive.
Although vacation properties advertised on our network will be exposed to millions of potential buyers/renters as
a result of the ResortVP advertising program, ResortVP does not have a specific buyer/renter at the present time. We
do not specifically go to resorts or vacation homes to show properties.
ResortVP is not affiliated with any resort, personal vacation home, or other third party organization representing
such. ResortVP is not a Real Estate broker. ResortVP is a consumer advertising company.
ResortVP has made no representations as to the period of time that it will take for you to sell/rent a vacation
property, the success rate of our advertising program, or the sale/rental price that an owner may receive. Because we
are an advertising company and are not involved in the sale/rental or the negotiation of the sale/rental, we are
unable to provide owners with statistics of the percentage of sales/rentals as a result of our advertising program.
When a vacation property has a rental or sale offer as a result of appearing on our network, the owner can choose
to go through an affiliated or recommended transaction broker/closing company or handle the transaction on his/her
own. If an owner chooses to have the offer handled by a third party referral, there may be fees associated with the
sale or rental that ResortVP has no control over and does not participate in any revenue share.
ResortVP is a consumer advertising company that does extensive advertising via brochures, radio, print, flyer distribution,
regional home shows, fairs, business networking events, personal in-office presentations, and videos, as well as national
timeshare magazine advertising and direct marketing to current owners, classified online and print advertising, and local and
international community newspapers. There are also planned programs in place to drive and increase traffic to our website.
Our current corporate headquarters are located in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. In this showroom, guests can view videos,
read printed material and view our online inventory. Our sellers’ vacation properties are available to be viewed on
our website at our location.
Owners are entitled to a refund if they provide ResortVP with notice of cancellation of their advertisement within
three (3) business days from the day their signed contract is received in our office.
Pursuant to F.S. § 721.20(9)(a), the ratio of the number of timeshare interests for sale versus the number of
timeshare interests sold by ResortVP is zero for each of the previous two calendar years. Because ResortVP is an
Advertising Compoany and does not sell or rent or promise to sell or rent properties it does not as a normal routine
obtain, track or keep records of sales resulting from its timeshare property advertising.
