Why Do We Matter?
There is no true consumer voice at the legislative level. While we understand that there are millions who use and enjoy their timeshare with no complaint, there are many who feel the industry needs fairer practices and greater disclosure.
The evolution from an estimated 1,590 Legacy, or single-site timeshare developments, morphed into a points-based timeshare system. This paved the way for ambiguity and confusion as to what a buyer actually purchases.
Timeshare and Resort Developer Accountability, Inc. (TARDA), seeks a legislative position through lobbying efforts spearheaded by current and former timeshare members. It is our belief there needs to be improvement on both ends of the timeshare sale – the purchase and exit.

About us
In February 2017 a small group of volunteers vowed to provide straight answers to timeshare members and owners who voiced concerns about unfair and deceptive sales practices, predatory lending, and the lack of a responsible exit. Since then, over 2,000 timeshare members and owners have reached out to us to seek help navigating the regulatory filing process.
