Rescission Letter Generator
If you recently purchased a timeshare and are still within the rescission (cooling-off) period, you may be able to cancel without penalty.
What is Rescission?
Rescission is your legal right to cancel a timeshare contract within a short period after signing — typically 3 to 15 days depending on your state.
During this "cooling-off" period, you can cancel for any reason (or no reason at all) and receive a full refund of any money paid.
This is the easiest and cheapest way to exit a timeshare — but the window is very short.
Important Notes
- !The clock starts when you sign the contract
- !You must send the letter via certified mail
- !Keep a copy and the certified mail receipt
- !The postmark date counts, not the delivery date
- !Some states have different rules — verify yours
