The

Evolution of
Timeshare.
What is Timeshare?
Timeshare is a type of vacation ownership in which multiple
individuals share rights to use the property, each with his or
her own allotted time frame.

Timeshare today has a lot more flexibility in travel dates,


resort and accommodation than in previous years.

A timeshare is a way for several people to share ownership


of a property, usually a vacation property such as a
condominium unit within a resort area. Each buyer usually
purchases a certain period in a unit. Timeshares typically
divide the property into one- to two-week periods.
The first Timeshare
The first timeshare was built in Switzerland by Alexander Nette and was called Hapimag
since 1963. The idea arose from Alexander Nette’s desire for a rent-free holiday every year.

The same time, the French company The Société des Grands Travaux de Marseille began
offering timeshare. This company had a ski resort in the Swiss Alps called Super
Devoluy. Again, the accommodation was sold as a ‘right to use’ rather than as a purchased
property.

These two developments in Switzerland and France were the first times in history that the
concept of timeshare was introduced into the world.
Its reputation was badly tainted in 1974 when developers
capitalized on trying to offload unsold condos on the market
during an era of overdevelopment, high-interest rates, and

soaring energy costs.

Tricky sales tactics such as free show tickets, three-night


Timeshare getaways, and ‘all you can eat buffets’ were used to get
people to sit through presentations which included high-
changes pressure sales tactics. And the timeshare offered on

the market was very inflexible.

In a fixed unit, at a fixed location during the calendar

options for most people and so many people were left with a
bad first impression of timeshare.
Modern(New) Timeshare
Timeshare market has become much more consumer friendly and flexible, resulting in
increased popularity.

Timeshare owners can have the flexibility of spending a holiday at the beach in Queensland
one year and on the alps in New Zealand the following year.

Most of the timeshare programs are points/credits based. You buy a certain number of
points or credits and use them at one or more resorts within a brand. In a points-based
timeshare, the number of points you need varies according to the length of the stay, size of
the unit, location of the resort, and when you want to use it. The points-based systems
allow people to have a lot more freedom, flexibility and variation with their holiday and so
are popular.
