I am the executor of an estate following a death.

My client had a French timeshare with Clubhotel and I understand that there is a French law where whoever inherits it can cancel the timeshare within 2 years of that inheritance.

My client died on 27 February 2021 and the estate is now ready for closing.

My client had very little in possessions and the small amount of money he had in the bank did not require probate to be granted to access it.

My client was receiving maximum UK benefits during his last 10 years of life including guaranteed pension credit.

There was no specific person to inherit the timeshare in his will and the person who would naturally inherit it would be his 77-year-old son who has Parkinson’s disease and other complications. Dealing with this timeshare problem in the next 18 months could create enough stress to shorten his life.

I would be grateful for some guidance as to how to deal with this problem.

We bought two one week timeshare units on Mc Donalds Dona Lola on private re-sale in 2002. We paid our service charges and used our weeks until 2019, we paid 2020’s charge but could not use due to Corvid, we didn’t pay for 2021 as restrictions still applied. Mc Donalds continued to peruse payment and have now instructed solicitors who are being very heavy handed, Ideally we would like them to write off the disputed weeks and do a deal relative to handing back our weeks.

I have an offer on my Vida Vacations timeshare that is nearly twice the investment cost. The offer is from a middeman organisation called Tradingconnection.online, Sarasota, Florida, USA. They have a working phone number and a web site. Sent me a poorly drafted semi-legalise sale agreement that looks shady. Ever hear of them? Thanks , Lloyd Sanford,
