Should rental listings perhaps expire on the day of checkin vs. 90 days from when it gets listed?
the problem with that is that so few owners come back to mark a rental or resale as completed, thus resulting in complaints from people where they reached out to a TUG member for a listing only to discover it was sold/rented long ago. (heck we even get these complaints with the 90 day rule)
Thank you for reminding me. I have tried posting and renting here in the past with no luck.
I went back to look at some previous rentals and found they all expired after 90 days? We would hope that a rental still available would be renewed so it could continue to be listed on the marketplace.
To answer your question regarding the 90 days... I try to rent if I realize I wont use my unit. Usually after 90 days its too close to losing value in a trade with II , so I end up banking it with II and then have 2 years to trade into something else.
I learned this the hard way. I decided I didn't want mine (death of my spouse, financial changes, etc) and got a company to tell me, "We will cancel your timeshare." Based on that statement and a 3 year money- back guarantee I paid a large sum for their services. After 2+ years of them writing horribly accusatory letters (mostly untrue) that I copied, pasted, and sent to my timeshare with my name attached, I finally said "uncle" and called off the hounds.
