Fixed week, floating week and Points

You have quite a few options when buying a timeshare. When looking ,you should decide if you would like to own a week that is a fixed week ( which means you own that particular week each year). This could be great, if you are happy going to your resort at the same time each year. It also saves you the hassle of picking a week and calling your resort each year to see if a particular week is available. A floating week can be 1-52 (the whole year or can be different times depending on what you own. An example of this would be I own a Red week in Palm desert, my floating weeks are 1-21 and 51 & 52. You could own blue or white which are less popular travel times due to the heat. It is all what you want to own and are willing to pay and how flexible you are.
Many people and resorts are opting for points. Points are suppose to make it more flexible for the owner. You have the option of staying the week or several days. You can get more days by staying during non peak time and use less points if you do not stay on a weekend night. Marriott has just introduced a new points system and is giving the option to existing owners to join or stay in the weeks progtram. All future sales of timeshares in Marriott will be Destination Points. There are many established points systems, Wyndham, RCI, Worldmark, Staroptions, Hilton, Hyatt and more. I do not have any experience with them but you can once again learn from the experts at (http://www.tug2.net/).

Trading

I would like to remind you that owning a timeshare is great but also an expense. Maintenance fees continue to go up, and airfare is also on the rise unless you find the deals out there. In my experience owning a timeshare has been awesome. It makes you take a vacation which we all need. I have talked about Marriott's, because that is what I own, but there are many other top notch resorts. Sheraton, Hilton, Hyatt and Wyndham are some of the other top resorts. There are also many other resorts that are beautiful that don't have the big name. You can search timeshares on ebay and you will see how many different resorts there are out there. There are several different trading companies. The two biggest are RCI and Interval International. I have always used and love Interval. If you want opinions from people who have experience with both please go to www.tug2.net. There is also an excellent book on trading with RCI  Click Here
Next we will talk about Points compared to weeks.

Trading with Interval International ll

I went against all the experts advice and bought my first Marriott resale to trade. It is a two bedroom lockoff low season, which means you can split it into a one bedroom and a studio and get two weeks vacation. My kids love disney and that was the main reason I bought it to trade into Florida. Florida is over populated with timeshares so trading in has never been a problem. For the last 5 years I have traded my studio  for a two bedroom Marriott. We have gone in August, May, November, and October. We have never tried a school vacation week, this would be harder to get. In order to trade with Interval you must first reserve your week and decide to lockoff or not thru Marriott. Once you have your week booked, you can deposit it into Interval. Being a Marriott owner you get a preference to trade into another Marriott resort. We always decide when we want to go and then check to see availability. If nothing is available you can put a request into Interval. They will continuously check for a match and notify you if they get one. While trading into Florida has been no problem, if you own a low season week you will have problems getting prime weeks into other resorts unless you are flexible. Marriott, thru Interval has what they call flextime. At 59 days or less all inventory is seen by all weeks. If you are flexible you can get some great weeks. I have had no problems going where my family had wanted outside of flexchange. We have traded a one bedroom for California in October, we exchanged a one bedroom for a 3 bedroom in West Palm Beach (Right on the ocean) If you would like to check out a great book on using Interval International Click Here

Advice on Buying a Timeshare and avoid the timeshare pitch

It is difficult to watch many families on vacation getting suckered into attending a timeshare presentation. Timeshares are great but you should never buy from the developer. Families are enticed to attend a presentation buy being offered discount tickets to dinner or a park . Once in these presentation you are pressured into buying and don't realize that you paid way too much. There are many resale sights that sell timeshares for much less. I bought all my timeshares on Ebay. I currently own two Marriotts, One in Utah and One in Palm Springs. I want you to understand that I could never afford owning a Marriott. My Desert Spings is a Red week which is the prime weeks to own. This timeshare would have sold for over $20,000 dollars, I paid $500 dollars. You really can get good bargains resale, hence never buy from the developer.
There is a website that is really great, Timeshare Users Group, (http://www.tug2.net/) I check it everyday. I strongly recommend that you visit this site, if you are thinking of purchasing a timeshare. You should also be aware that there are maintenance fees that come with owning a timeshare. The advice from all the experts is buy a timeshare where you want to go each year. I can only tell you my experiences and you can decide what is best for you. The first timeshare I bought is my Marriott in Park City,Utah. I have no intentions of going there, but I wanted to get into the Marriott system to trade into other Marriott resorts. It has worked out unbelieveably well. I will tell you about my trades in my next report. In the mean time Please check out the links above on trading.
