I think I just landed a cherry of a deal!!!

Congrats! Is Going to the Sun Road normally open this time of the year? If so, it is really a prime week and you should have no problem in case you would like to rent it.

Yes, under normal circumstances it opens at least a couple weeks prior to This week (26)

Check with the resort and RCI points, sometimes you have to make them aware of the ownership.
Good Luck!

Yes, I called the Resort yesterday and confirmed everything with them. I also spoke to them regarding the RCI Points transfer and they are going to follow up with RCI and get back to me. My closing agent is also going to follow up with RCI and get back to me

RCI has a points transfer form that the closing agent should have had you and the seller fill out. Hopefully they did that and all you're waiting for is RCI to process the form.

Yes, that was one of the first things I did a couple weeks ago. Just waiting on the seller/agent, the resort, and RCI to communicate so the Points account transfer is completed so I can setup and start using my account

Just wanted to give a post purchase update. I'v been able to use my first use year points to book 2 weeks in NOLA at Wyndham Avenue Plaza in March, 5 nights in NYC at The Hiton Club of New York in August, and 1 week in Belgium at Residentie Van Gogh in October. After that, I still have 10k 2017(Good til Aug 31, 2018) points left! I am beyond happy with my purchase so far ☺

In case you didn't catch it when you booked...many locations in New York City charge daily 'resort' and/or 'housekeeping' fees when booked thru RCI. I think the one you booked has a $40 daily fee, which may include breakfast. I haven't been in a while, so things may have changed. Others may chime in, or you could just call to confirm.

$200 for Hilton Club ... small penalty/fee. Just don't bring a car into the city ... parking fees are really HIGH. Use public transportation.

I live in South New Jersey ... 100+ miles from 'the city'. I drive up to Princeton Junction, take the TNJ commuter train into Madison Square Gardens station ... and either walk with my rolling bag or grab a cab. TNJ train is around $20RT, TNJ parking lot is around $20 for a few days ... cabs are cheap compared to parking.

I drove into the city 5+ years ago .. Parked across the street from Hilton Midtown 45 with my Ford Focus card when I took my 89yo aunt to stay with me .... THEN, $60 plus (tax + tip) a night fee without IN&OUT access.

It's actually only $40 per stay(housekeeping) at this location fortunately. There is only a daily fee for parking, which I definitely won't be bringing a car. I definitely paid attention to those details. Manhattan Club would've been ridiculous between the hefty points cost and the daily fees.
