TIMESHARE REALTOR® = ETHICAL. EDUCATED. LICENSED. PROFESSIONAL.
What exactly is a "Timeshare Realtor" anyway? Well let's take a closer look...
Time · share - noun - a form of ownership in which parties share the ownership or right to use a property, normally a condominium, hotel-resort, or vacation home. Each party owns an allotted period of time in which they can use the property. Timeshares are also known as "Vacation Ownership", "Vacation Clubs" and "Fractional Ownership".
Re·al·tor - noun - REALTOR® is a trademark of the National Association of REALTORS®. In order to use this trademark you must be a member of the NAR and adhere to their strict code of ethics. The code establishes an expected conduct of behavior that may even be higher than what is required by law. You must have an active real estate license regulated by the state in which you operate and be affiliated with your local board. Not all real estate brokers, agents or salespeople are members of the NAR and thus not all are REALTORS®.

Therefore our definition of "Timeshare Realtor" would be as stated below:
Timeshare REALTOR® - noun -A licensed real estate agent who is a member of the National Association of REALTORS® and specializes in the buying and selling of timeshares. A Timeshare REALTORS® business is regulated by the state or states in which they are licensed.

Why is it important to use a licensed real estate broker?
When you use a licensed broker you are working with a professional agent who met the education, training, experience and background check requirements of the state in which they are licensed. Furthermore, you are working with an agent who's activities are monitored by a broker. Both the agent and the broker are then regulated by the state's Division of Real Estate.
The biggest reason to work with a licensed real estate broker is so you have recourse should you be mislead, misrepresented or flat out scammed. A licensed agent or broker is held accountable by the Division of Real Estate and can be fined and even jailed for unacceptable business practices.
Is it necessary to use a Timeshare REALTOR®?
No, you do not have to use a Timeshare REALTOR®. However, it is highly recommended. Working with a licensed agent who not only specializes in timeshares but is a member of the National Association of REALTORS®, gives the client the added protection of working with an agent or broker who adheres to the NAR's Code of Ethics and is further regulated by a local board of REALTORS®.
