Resort Closings

What Resort Closings does

Resort Closings, Inc. is a privately held, licensed, bonded, and insured escrow company founded in 2002 and headquartered in Bozeman, Montana. The company specializes in timeshare transfer and closing services on the resale market, providing document preparation, escrow fund handling, deed recording, resort notification, title searches, title insurance coordination, and Quit Claim Deeds for individual owners and small resellers transacting across all 50 US states, Mexico, Canada, and the Caribbean. Its core technology is an escrow-based transaction management workflow backed by licensed, bonded, and insured fund custody, with funds released only after deed recording and resort confirmation of ownership change. Adjacent offerings include the Timeshare Scam Hotline, a searchable scam database, a fixed-weeks calculator tool, and three sister brands — Timeshare Specialists, Buy and Sell Timeshares, and Timeshare Scam Hotline — that together address exit, listing, fraud prevention, and closing across the resale journey.

The business operates a direct-to-consumer plus sales-assisted GTM, with customers initiating transactions via online self-service portals, quote requests, a toll-free number, and email, and named agents handling closings end-to-end. Revenue is generated on a per-transaction basis at $200–$500 per closing, with a la carte attach on title search, title insurance, and Quit Claim Deeds; the company does not charge upfront fees, holding all payments in escrow until the transfer is recorded. The company claims more than 55,000 completed transfers at 2,500 resorts, holds a BBB A+ rating, is an ARDA member, and has received earned media coverage on NBC and USA Today for its fraud-prevention work.
