My first TS purchase was 77k Wyndham (then Fairfield) points with an affiliate resort in Mexico. Unlike the usual Wyn contract, this was a RTU contract expiring in 2021. I figured it was a good way to get into timesharing because if we didn't like it we wouldn't be stuck with it forever.
It seems to me that this reasoning is even more appropriate now as the resale value of timeshares has, if anything, declined further.
I am interested in acquiring more Wyn points and I'm thinking getting another RTU contract is the way to go ($1 or free).
Most ads on Ebay boast that they are selling a deed that does not expire. I think that a contract that does expire is preferable. That way I don't pass on the MFs to my kid!
I'd be interested in y'all's thoughts on RTU versus deeded.
Happy New Year!
