Considering a timeshare exit company? Before you agree to a fee, compare what the service includes, what its refund terms require, and whether a less expensive option could fit your situation.
I’m Wayne C. Robinson, a former timeshare executive with 15 years of experience in sales, marketing, contracts, and management. I now help owners understand their contracts and cancellation options.
This guide compares timeshare exit company costs and explains the questions to ask before paying. I also offer a document-preparation service, so you can compare that option alongside the companies discussed here.

Before You Pay Thousands to a Timeshare Exit Company, Watch This
I’m Wayne C. Robinson, a former timeshare sales and contracts executive. Over the past decade, I’ve helped more than 250 families pursue cancellation of their unwanted timeshares.
After spending 15 years inside the timeshare industry, I know how these contracts are sold and why so many owners struggle to get out of them.
In this short video, I explain my experience, why I began helping timeshare owners, and how my document-preparation service offers an alternative to expensive timeshare exit companies.
Before spending $5,000, $10,000, or more on an exit company, take a few minutes to learn about your options.
Why Timeshare Exit Companies Don’t Publish Pricing
Here’s the part most owners never get told. When a company doesn’t publish a price, that price isn’t fixed — it’s flexible. It gets set during a phone call, based on what the salesperson learns about you: how many years you’ve owned, how much you still owe, how upset you sound, how desperate you seem to get out.
Two owners with nearly identical contracts can be quoted very different numbers depending on how that conversation goes. A published price list would make that harder to do. So most exit companies simply don’t publish one, and they route everyone through a “free consultation” that’s really a sales call with a quote attached at the end.
I’m not saying every company that does this is acting in bad faith. Some of these firms do real, legitimate work for their clients. But you deserve to know how the pricing game works before you get on that call, so you’re negotiating from information instead of pressure.
What Wesley Financial Group Actually Charges
Wesley Financial Group is one of the best-known names in the timeshare exit business, and it advertises heavily. Based on what owners report after going through the process, Wesley Financial Group’s actual cost typically falls somewhere between $4,000 and $14,000. That’s a wide range, and where you land in it depends on your specific contract and situation.
Wesley does not publish pricing on its website. You’ll need to go through a consultation to get a number, and that number is not guaranteed to be the same as what the next caller hears.
What Resolution Timeshare Cancellation Charges
Resolution Timeshare Cancellation follows a similar model. There’s no published price on the site — you go through a free consultation, and what Resolution Timeshare Cancellation charges is determined case by case after that call.
Because I don’t have a relationship with Resolution, I can’t tell you their exact internal pricing tiers. What I can tell you is that “quote-only after a consultation” is the industry norm, not the exception, and Resolution is no different from most of the field in that respect.
What Vacation Ownership Consultants (VOC) Charges
Vacation Ownership Consultants, often shortened to VOC, tends to run somewhat lower than the bigger, more heavily-advertised names. Based on available reporting, what Vacation Ownership Consultants charges generally falls in the roughly $2,800 to $5,000 range.
Like the others, VOC doesn’t post pricing upfront on its website. You’ll still need to go through their intake process to get a firm number for your specific contract.
The Industry-Wide Range You Should Expect
Across the exit company industry as a whole, pricing commonly runs from about $3,000 to $15,000 or more, depending on the company, your loan balance, how many timeshares you’re trying to exit, and honestly, sometimes just how the sales conversation goes. If someone quotes you a number wildly outside that range in either direction, that’s worth a second look before you sign anything.
Side-by-Side Cost Comparison
| Company | Typical Cost | Pricing Transparency | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wesley Financial Group | $4,000–$14,000 | Not published; quote after consultation | Owners who want a large, well-known firm to handle the whole process |
| Resolution Timeshare Cancellation | Not published (quote-only) | Not published; quote after free consultation | Owners who want a full-service company but haven’t compared quotes yet |
| Vacation Ownership Consultants (VOC) | ~$2,800–$5,000 | Not published; quote after intake | Owners looking for a full-service option below the top-tier price range |
| Wayne’s Document Preparation Service | $1,495 (up to $3,500 with a balance owed) | Published upfront, on this site | Paid-in-full owners who want professional help without exit-company markup |
| Wayne’s “Break Free From Your Timeshare” DIY Course | ($199) on Udemy | Published upfront | Owners who want to understand the process and handle it themselves |
A quick note on that table: my own services aren’t a fit for everyone. The document preparation service is specifically for owners who are paid in full — if you’re still financing, that’s a different conversation, and I’ll tell you that directly instead of trying to make you fit a box you don’t fit.
Why the Cheapest Option Isn’t Always the Cheapest Path
It’s tempting to look at that table and assume the lowest number wins. Sometimes it does. But cost only tells part of the story — you also need to know what you’re actually paying for.
Full-service exit companies like Wesley, Resolution, and VOC typically handle the entire process for you: contract review, negotiation, communication with the resort, and follow-through until the timeshare is out of your name. That convenience is part of what you’re paying for, and for some owners with complicated contracts or years of missed payments, that hands-on approach is worth it.
DIY options — whether mine or anyone else’s — put more of the work on you, but they cost less because you’re not paying for someone else’s labor and overhead. Whether that trade-off makes sense depends entirely on your situation: how complex your contract is, how much free time you have, and how comfortable you are handling paperwork and phone calls yourself. If you want a fuller breakdown of the lower-cost paths available to you, I’ve written about the cheapest way to cancel a timeshare in more detail elsewhere on this site.
Questions to Ask Before You Pay Anyone
Before you commit money to any exit company — mine included — ask these directly:
- What exactly is included in this price, and what would cost extra?
- Is any part of this fee refundable if the exit isn’t completed?
- Who is doing the actual work: your staff, or a third party you’re outsourcing to?
- Can I get this quote in writing before I pay anything?
If a company won’t answer those questions clearly, or gets pushier the more you ask, treat that as useful information.
