Professionally, I am a California real estate broker with over 15 years of experience as an entrepreneur, giving clients that personal first-class customer service resulting in many millions of dollars of residential sales annually. My transition to timeshare resales was born both out of being a timeshare owner and my passion for real estate. The natural progression to timeshare resales is a result of finding what you love to do. When you love the work you do, it doesn’t feel like work at all!

Licensed Real Estate Agent - Timeshare Resale Specialist
I’ve been working in the timeshare industry for over 12 years. I started in the industry with timeshare resales at a Palm Springs resort. I was later offered a position as Director of Operations for a new sales development. Though I learned a lot working in new sales, I chose to go back to resales with Preferred Timeshare Resales which I find to be  more rewarding, as I'm offering Buyers and Sellers alike, a safe and professional environment to complete their timeshare transactions.

I have been working with Preferred Timeshare Resales for the past 8 years and have known my Broker, Karen Phelan, for over 30 years! I grew up in West Point California in The Gold Rush country. As a child, I enjoyed panning for gold, swimming in rivers and lakes, fishing, nature and the easy going country life. Right after high school I moved to Lake Tahoe, California and started in the timeshare industry. I have been in the timeshare industry since 1981 - over 38 years of timeshare experience for you!

Our office is not a high-pressure sales environment - In our no-pressure environment, it helps me to get to know my clients, so I can help them better.  A successful transaction requires listening to my client's needs, and there is nothing more gratifying to me than a happy client!

Being a timeshare owner myself, I give my clients the insight they need to make intelligent choices. I look forward to helping you with creating luxury, affordable timeshare vacations for you and your loved ones.

True Stories

"In a business segment with tons of shady characters, Preferred Timeshares Resales is a shining star and an oasis of stability. I recently completed a transaction for the sale of my timeshare and while it was for an amount much less than I would have liked, this was a function more of the saturated market for timeshare resales than anything else. As I was done with using our timeshare and paying the annual fees (escalating at a ridiculous rate), I just wanted out. Sue made this happen. The experience was easy, pleasurable and painless. Sue takes the time to explain the process, makes herself available for questions or concerns during the sale and follows-up to button everything up. I couldn't have asked for a better or smoother process. If I had to sell another timeshare, my first call would be to Sue and Preferred Timeshare Resales. You can definitely count on an above board business that isn't shady, slimy or not looking out for you. Even when I first called Sue, when she walked me through the sales scenario, she was very upfront about how little I'd be able to recoup from my initial investment and said she's understand if I didn't want to follow through with a sale. She didn't try to run a game on me and the whole time I felt she took my interests and concerns to heart."

"My husband and I sold our Marriott timeshare through Preferred Timeshare Resale. We spoke with an agent initially and she gave us very good information in regards to what we could expect. The info she gave us was very honest and useful in preparing us for the sale. We were contacted several months later by another agent, when she had an offer for our timeshare. Both agents were very professional and reliable. There were no upfront costs and all fees came out of the proceeds from the sale. The agents kept us informed as the sale progressed and we were very happy with the entire experience. I highly recommend Preferred Timeshare Resale for selling your timeshare."
