How to sell a Bluegreen Vacations timeshare

You can sell Bluegreen Vacations points or a deeded week privately. Once a buyer has signed, you submit Bluegreen's title transfer form with the contract; owners report a $500 transfer fee, and a broker says the contract goes to Bluegreen, now owned by Hilton Grand Vacations, for its right-of-first-refusal review. Resale owners can use Bonus Time only at their home resort and do not get Premier status. Bluegreen also takes some ownerships back, but owners report that this usually costs about a year and a half of maintenance fees.

What you are selling

A licensed resale broker lists the paperwork Bluegreen sellers need: the home resort name, the ownership contract, the deed or other proof of ownership, ownership details such as the point allotment and use year, and the latest annual maintenance fee statement.

Owners selling Bluegreen points recommend stating the resort, the number of points, annual or every-other-year use, the points remaining for the current year, the anniversary date, any deeded week and unit, and the trust fund and sales type, which Bluegreen Owner Services can confirm (2025 report).

What a resale buyer receives

Owners report that resale buyers can use Bonus Time only at their home resort and do not receive Premier status. No official Bluegreen rule on splitting a points contract was found, so ask Owner Services before you offer only part of your points.

Your options

  • Sell privately. Advertise the points or week, agree the price with a buyer and submit Bluegreen's title transfer form with the signed contract. The sale price is yours.
  • Ask Bluegreen about an exit. Bluegreen says its Customer Care Specialists offer exit solutions tailored to each owner's circumstances, on (844) 757-6932 or through its online form; it publishes no eligibility rules or fee. Owners report that taking back a paid-off ownership that is current on dues costs about one and a half years of maintenance fees and takes about three months (2024 and January 2025 reports), and that points contracts were taken back for 18 to 19 months of fees plus signed, notarised paperwork (2024). In July 2025 owners reported a deeded week at Blue Ridge Village taken back with no fees after about four months.
  • Mind the fee calendar. Owners report that starting a give-back less than 90 days before maintenance fees are due means paying the next year's fees as well (2024 and 2026 reports).
  • Bluegreen's own resale options. Owners reported in January 2024 that Bluegreen offered to list an ownership with its authorised reseller for $49 or to process a title transfer to someone else for $500.

Price and timing

Resale prices are set by what buyers pay today and are usually far below Bluegreen's direct price. Owners report that Bluegreen resale listings should state who pays the transfer fee, which sellers usually cover (2025 report).

Any outstanding maintenance fees must be paid before the ownership can be transferred, and a broker advises sellers to keep paying until Bluegreen confirms in writing that their name is off the deed.

How the sale works, step by step

  1. Gather your ownership details

    Collect the contract, the deed or proof of ownership, the point allotment, use year and anniversary date, and the latest maintenance fee statement.

  2. Pay any outstanding fees

    Bring maintenance fees up to date: the ownership cannot be transferred while fees are outstanding.

  3. Advertise your timeshare

    Publish a listing with the resort, the points or week, the use and your asking price, and say who pays the transfer fee. On BidMyTimeshare.com buyers contact you directly, and you decide which offer to accept.

  4. Agree the sale in writing

    Sign a contract with the price, the costs and the timetable. If you offer to cover fees, a broker advises making that conditional on Bluegreen waiving its right of first refusal.

  5. Submit the transfer to Bluegreen

    Owners report that the seller submits Bluegreen's online title transfer form with the signed contract and pays the $500 transfer fee at that point (December 2024 report). The contract then goes through Bluegreen's right-of-first-refusal review.

  6. Keep paying until it is confirmed

    Keep paying the maintenance fees until Bluegreen confirms in writing that your name is off the deed.

Avoid resale and relief scams

The US Federal Trade Commission warns that resale scammers guarantee an easy sale or say they already have a buyer, then ask the owner to pay thousands of dollars upfront (September 2025). Bluegreen warns that many unscrupulous resale and 'relief' companies contact owners with deceptive offers, often posing as attorneys or law offices and asking for large sums in advance for services they never provide.

  • Call Bluegreen on (844) 757-6932 or use its online form before you make any decision about your ownership, as Bluegreen asks.
  • HGV's fraud protection page has timeshare fraud education tools specifically for Bluegreen owners.
  • Before you pay or sign anything, search the company's name together with the words 'scam' or 'complaint' and get every promise and fee in writing, as the FTC advises.
  • On BidMyTimeshare.com you pay a one-time fee to publish your advertisement. We do not deal with buyers for you, take part in the sale or promise that your timeshare will sell.

Bluegreen offers exit solutions through its Customer Care Specialists on (844) 757-6932 but publishes no rules or fee. Owners report that it usually charges about one and a half years of maintenance fees and takes about three months, although one deeded week was taken back free in 2025.
