Press Release: Stroman Realty
April 23, 2004
CONROE, TX -- "Our first quarter numbers for Stroman Realty were the best in our 25-year history," reports
President Wayne A. Stroman, CIPS. There were several reasons why an increase is taking place in the Resort Real
Estate Market. He said, "The timeshare resale market has come alive, and buyers are looking to specialized
agents to help them through the sales transaction process."
"More resort and second home buyers throughout the globe are thrilled about purchasing timeshares in the resale
market and are motivated to take advantage of the ownership opportunities that resale pricing affords," said
Stroman. "Our first quarter is traditionally the most productive of the year, and this year we are receiving
an increase in interest from almost every marketing effort."
Stroman anticipates the trend of resale buying activity to continue for the next 10 years while baby boomers are
becoming empty nesters and have more vacation time and disposable income to purchase vacations. "Another factor
is the transfer of family wealth which will be the largest ever in the world's history! This could drive demand
toward purchasing more of the current inventory of resale units. We have experienced a steady rise in resale prices
in the past 10 years and predict them to continue to follow behind the pricing of new sales by developers from
this point on," said Stroman.
Stroman believes there has never been a better opportunity for Timeshare Ownership. More timeshare resorts are
being developed and branded by the best hoteliers (e.g., Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt, Disney, etc.) This has improved
the product image and helped all timeshare sales.
"There is much information publicized about the benefits of owning a timeshare condominium with a bedroom
and kitchen instead of renting a hotel room for vacations. Consumers recognize the value and additional amenities
obtainable through vacation ownership," said Stroman. "It is our job as REALTORS(R) to let the buyers
know that resale beats retail anytime." See animated comparison at www.TimeshareLink.com/timeshare-hotel-comparison.asp.
Stroman Realty was founded in 1979 and is staffed by over 120 agents and support personnel. Stroman has closed
sales in over 1,000 different timeshare resorts worldwide. The company promotes the VacationWay(C) Program to one
million plus members of the National Association of REALTORS(R) and offices in a purpose-built facility in a Houston
suburb on Lake Conroe.
