Private purchases at Club Paihia
Holiday bettter than the millionaires for a fraction of the cost!
Why purchase a second-hand timeshare:
Traditionally kiwis owned a bach or similar
near a lake or water.
This was relatively simple, was used only partially during the
year and had a relatively high maintenance & rates burden.
The capital costs associated with full ownership have also become
excessive over the last few decades, making it uneconomic for the
average person to purchase.
Timesharing a resort holiday home means that
you only purchase the number of weeks you actually need.
Maintenance costs are proportional to the percentage of weeks you
buy..
The best timeshare resorts themselves are built to a much higher
standard in terms of facilities than any private house or
commercial motel.
All maintenance, cleaning & other costs are taken care to a
high standard by professionals.
As in all private property a timeshare owner
may utilise his week(s) himselves, let friends or family utilise
it, or rent it out privately.
Additionally there are alternatives to swap your accomodation
with other timeshare owners at different resorts either in New
Zealand or overseas.
Purchasing secondhand timeshare directly from other timeshare
owners means that you can buy at a substantial discount to the
resort property replacement value at present.
Why purchase at Club Paihia:

resorts in New Zealand.
Club Paihia has the biggest range of on site facilities of ay
timeshare resort in New Zealand.
Club Paihia units have recently completed a major overhaul /
refurbishment and the resort is in superb condition.
Club Paihia is owned by the owners, run by the owners (who vote
for a body corporate committee) - the management work for the
owners.
Maintenance & rating costs etc are levied equally and costs
as per NZ unit title law - there are no organisations in between.

over the next decade.

weeks have an associated legal title.
Club Paihia timeshare weeks can only be purchased secondhand from
exisiting private owners - there are no agents involved.
Club Paihia timeshare weeks are presently in surplus as there are
a large number of owners who purchased around 30 years ago who
are now reaching retirement age.
Due to this Club Paihia units can currently be purchased very
cheaply on the resale market - once this backlog has cleared the
second-hand resale value is expected to rise.

Purchasing a second hand timeshare at Club
Paihia is a private real estate transaction between willing
buyers & sellers.
Each owner has an individual perspective and value that they
place on their unit ownership.
This year this is a surplus of sellers of one bedroom floating
units so resale prices are temporarily very competitive.
At present several unit weeks are available at a significant
discount to resort replacement value.
Floating weeks provide access for all except
the four Summer weeks after Xmas Day.
Fixed weeks limit access to a particular unit and week normally
in January & are rarely available.

& unit, whether multiple consecutive weeks,
and what sellers personal expectations are.

total seller & buyer legal fees of c. $863 to $1400):
One bedroom floating weeks - c. $100-$1000.
Two bedroom floating weeks - c. $2000-$4000.
