It seems sketchy as hell.

They sell an apartment, that apartment in resort. The price is about typical normal apartment.

They said that I own that apartment, and can visit the resort few days a year, enjoying staying at that apartment. Just book your day and they handled the rest. I still not fully wrapped my head about this concept yet, but why not stay there forever but "book" ?

My aunt said this seems good deal. But I feel something fishy.

Is it a good investment compared to normal apartment in residence building ?

Can someone tell me more details on this type of real estate?

Nope, there's whole industries out there that are built around helping people escape their timeshares. To make it resellable .. there have to be other people who want to buy it...
