Closing will be through LT Transfers of Cornelia, GA. Their price is around $300 total, including Marriott transfer fee. Buyer will pay closing.You pay half of the maintenance fee each year, odd and even years, but usages is in even years.Second, nothing at Sheraton Broadway Plantation is mandatory, meaning that staroptions do nto transfer in resale. This is a voluntary resort. Even if someone is advertising the number of staroptions, you won't get the staroptions The sellers that are advertising this way do not know the difference between mandatory and voluntary. These are just deeded weeks that float spring-summer and into early fall, week #'s 9-43 and 47.This is a lockoff 2 bedroom. There are two full kitchens. Check the pictures on Marriott's website. The small one bedroom even has its own washer/dryer unit. The small one bedroom has a separate bedroom, so it's not a studio. It's got one big room with a living area, kitchen on one wall, but a full-sized refrigerator, stove/ oven and dishwasher. It's a great little unit for two people, but it sleeps four with the sofa sleeper and the queen bed in the bedroom.Use the full two bedroom unit for two couples with small kids, and stretch your vacation dollar and still have the privacy door between the units.The only thing the small side lacks is a balcony, which the premium one bedroom side has. The premium one bedroom has a king bed, a nice big living room and kitchen with island and a bathroom with a nice whirlpool tub.You can use this week for 2025, if you reimburse maintenance fees. I have several reserved for 2025 and can add your name to one of them. You can then add the Bonvoy number to your Marriott account and get the points and the credit for the stay toward your status.This resort is not on the beach, it's by Broadway by the Beach, a nice little shopping/restaurant area with a lot of activities and things to do, including Ripley's Believe It or Not and a little area with rides.These units are super traders in II. Both sides of the lockoff will get Disney weeks, so two Disney weeks for two one bedroom deposits. We mostly Old Key West (our personal favorite) and Saratoga Springs. We love Disney resorts.We own too many of these. We have rented these weeks in the past but we are getting older and don't like the stress of renting. We own quite a few standard 2 bedrooms that do not lock into two one bedrooms. I am selling several of those as well.

More information on our formula...
Hotels usually sleep 2 adults per room, whereas the average timeshare units offer multiple private bedrooms, sleeper sofas and sometimes even bunk beds - adding value not calculated here. Timeshare properties are condo style units that contain all of the comforts of home... and then some!
Hotel total cost includes a 10% hotel tax whereas the average U.S. hotel tax is currently around 13.4%.
Timeshare total cost includes an increase in maintenance dues each year of 3%, as well as an estimated $1,000 in closing and transfer costs. These are estimated and will vary by state, county and resort.
Total savings does not take into consideration the added benefit of a timeshare unit having a spacious living room, washer and dryer, dining room and full kitchen, all of which add value and potential savings when you have the option to do your own laundry and enjoy a home cooked meal instead of dining out.
