    Be better for forumites to comment once you've spoken to your sister.  Speculation and conspiracy theories help no one.

    Sometimes, when people die with a timeshare, the cost of charges and getting rid of it can eat up the whole of the rest of the estate.
    Yes, I think we had a thread here not so long ago about an estate which couldn't be settled because the timeshare was creating an ongoing liability and seemed impossible to dispose of.

    I'd be buying her a case of Port Ellen just to say thanks for taking it off the estate's hands...
