I already have Tuscany 5800 pts. He offered another Tuscany 5800 for $25,220 .... plus 17,400 bonus points but would have two maintenance fees. All great, if I didn't know about the resale market and could get so much cheaper if I wanted...
Hi Everyone!
I'm back at it again and looking at a 7K two bedroom platinum week at the above property. I was thinking about purchasing it for $7500 with the only "closing cost" being the $562 Hilton activation fee. The maintain will fees including everything except the club dues are $821.83. Do...
Hi All,
Hilton recently exercised ROFR on the HGVC Sea World property. I'm looking for 14K platinum points. I don't really care about the destination per say since my goal is to travel everywhere. Please contact me if you'd like to discuss, or forward my thread to someone looking to sell.
Thanks!
Hello all, first post, so be gentle!
Here is my situation: my wife and I recently bought into The District in DC directly from HGVC. Here are the details:
Club points: 7,200 Platinum odd year (exchangeable to HHonors at 1:50)
One-time bonus club points: 20,000 (exchangeable to HHonors at 1:25)...
Hello Everyone,
I just signed paperwork and made a deposit for two 7K point platinum weeks at Sea World for $12,500 on one deed with all seller paid closing costs including activation fees. The maintenance fees are about $2,300/year starting in 2018. What do you think?
As I was reading through...
I own two weeks with HGVC.
I no longer want my unit and would like to give it to my friend (non-relative).
If its a gift will it get through ROFR? I would like the paperwork to reflect what we are really doing and prefer not to say I'm selling it for $x just to get through ROFR.
Thanks in...
Im oh so close to my buying into his program. Thanks for all the amazing threads, comments, and feedback. I'm buying this timeshare with my mom, and we'll need a minimum of 2 double beds. I'd hate to always have to book a 2 bedroom, even though they're fantastic, because we are only getting 14K...
Hi all,
I have about 15,000 bonus points set to expire at the end of June that I haven't been able to utilize yet. My options seem to be 1) convert to Hilton Honors points at 1:25 or 2) deposit with RCI. I have a lot of HHonors points already so not sure I want to convert, plus the value isn't...
Hello,
I have a every other year 4,800 points with HGV. It's fully paid for and I want to get rid of it. We bought it Feb 2016. Can anyone advise on how to do this w/o A.) paying an attorney 3,000-5,000 B.) waiting 21 days for an automated email from HGV resale C.) I don't want to rent it...
Hello,
I attended a sales presentation and ended up purchasing a VIP package so that I could really spend some time doing some research to understand all the moving parts. Needless to say I'm glad I didn't buy. I'm thinking about making a purchase for $10,500 for 14K points and $2100...
Hello All! We recently stayed at the Hilton Club in NYC for a promotional weekend to hear the offer. We already own weeks at Massanutten in VA and are very happy with what we have. We get Christmas week every year and deposit into RCI for the maximum amount of trading power. I was really...
I entered RCI via the HGVC portal and searched for #3622 for Hacienda Del Mar and it does not show up. Are HGVC participants not able to access the full RCI portfolio? Do we have to call this in?
If this is not visible but available, it makes me wonder about other properties on RCI.
I have never understood why some sellers use private eBay listings (where you can not see, or even figure out, other bidding action). I have heard sellers say it protects the bidder privacy but don't buy that given the bidder name scramble. I have heard buyers say it is done to allow fake bids...
Hi there,
My wife and I are from the UK. We stay at HGVC Tuscany on a regular basis but have never gone through official owners site.
We are thinking of buying a resale at HGVC Marbrisa aiming to go to there annually 20th (ish) March to mid (ish) April and possibly again late summer.
Any...
We just purchased while in DC. My husband is convinced that we can make the most out of this deal. For $25,000 we got 7500 Club Points every other year with a maintenance fee of around $1300 biennial. We got 20,000 bonus points and signed up and will pay with the American Express card for which...
I have a 3 bedroom on hold at HGVC Oceans 22, and we have a few questions:
1- Do exchangers have to pay the $10.80/day parking fee I see on the hotel website? It isn't mentioned om RCI fees page.
2- The girl who answered the phone said all 3 bedroom units are oceanfront. Does anyone know if that...
Quick question: I am new to timeshares and I am planning on rescinding my contract this week with HGVC. I am wondering if I plan to buy resale in the future if I would have access to RCI last call?
I am considering buying at The Hilton Club in NYC on the resale market. I can buy 5,000 pts at The Hilton Club for $12,000.
1. Can anyone tell me if this is a good deal.
2. I recently discovered that The Hilton Club may not actually be part of Hilton Grand Vacation Club but are a separate...

Hello all,
My wife and I loved our HGVC points for a while, but with three young kids now there isn't a lot of travel in our near future. I'm looking to sell back to Hilton for their admittedly low prices - something is better than nothing. I have 4800 points at South Beach and 4800 points at...

Hi Guys!
I'm debating purchasing a timeshare on ebay for the HGVC. I've been researching this forums for days (great info!!) but can't seem to find the answer to this question. When people state the 7000 point timeshares go for ~$1/point does that mean for everything including the closing costs...
Please advice, Im new to TUG!! I did go thru how to sell your time share and am planning to use a professional service to close. But otherwise is there anything else needed? Im really not sure about the whole process could someone please advice?
Thank you!!
