Did you purchase a timeshare membership interest from Split Rock, Bell Air Collection Resorts & Spas, and ThyCollection, including the Willowbrook at Lake Harmony resort? Were you charged a 2% Pennsylvania real estate Transfer Tax even though you were not sold any real estate ownership interest? If so, you might have grounds to take legal action.
The Purchase & Security Agreement for the Timeshare Membership Program notes that the interest is a “form of ‘right to use’ timeshare interest.” Furthermore, it says that “you will not receive a deed to any interest in real property.” This language confirms that no real estate interest is conveyed. Nevertheless, many people were given a Purchase & Security Agreement that also included a 2% Pennsylvania real estate Transfer Tax as if they had been given a deed.
If you were charged a 2% Pennsylvania real estate Transfer Tax as part of your Purchase & Security Agreement for a Timeshare Membership, then you might be entitled to compensation.
