Timeshare Advertiser BuyaTimeshare.com Announces Increased Offer Amounts for Q3

Online, October 27, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Continued growth for online timeshare advertising leader BuyaTimeshare.com was supported by third quarter 2013 offer amounts from consumers seeking to buy and rent timeshare through the company's internet-based timeshare marketplace.

Inbound offers to buy timeshare increased 24 percent year over year to just over $27 million in total for the quarter just completed on September 30, while offers to rent timeshare were up 64 percent to exceed $1.7 million. The offers were placed by prospective timeshare buyers and renters through the company's website at http://buyatimeshare.com and emailed directly to owners advertising their timeshare for sale and for rent.

The offers are reflective of the increased desire for potential buyers and renters to look toward the secondary market to satisfy their travel accommodation needs according to BuyaTimeshare.com president and CEO Wesley Kogelman.

"We know that the resale sector has increased its market share, which has grown to 32 percent of overall timeshare sales according to a 2012 study conducted by the ARDA International Foundation," said Kogelman. "We have put significant resources into our online marketing and search engine optimization efforts in order to market to those consumers and attract offers to our advertisers, so we are very pleased to see these results."

"Consumers are also confident in the system we provide through our streamlined offer process, where buyers and renters can place offers through a secure system which protects their data and allows offers to be emailed directly to owners," Kogelman added. "Because their information is never compromised, owners can negotiate an agreement with buyers and renters in a safe environment which is supported by our industry-leading customer service team."

BuyaTimeshare.com provides a full service customer service support program for owners advertising their timeshare for sale or rent, with representatives available 70 hours per week to answer questions and help owners manage their accounts.
