New to system. Is it possible to rent out the 600 pts. my nephew has left for use year 2025, or should he just let them go? He does not want to bank them. TIA.

You can not rent out HGVC points per the rules. 600 pts is only worth ~$60 so IMO not worth the cost to save them.

very specific use case to think about for next yr: say you're booking a resort where your Pts are worth $0.25 each. The 600 = $150. If you had a wk booked at a place that goes on "special" sometimes, Black Fri or other, you could cancel the week and rebook 8 nights using the +600 pts. If no status, it is an extra $79 (I guess) fee but you got a night worth at least $150. small stuff but that is a "use case" if I get yoru question

As others have mentioned:
  • wait for a point sale > some studios can go very low points at different times of the year
  • grab something interesting and possibly borrow from 2026 points if needed to get the booking
By way of pretty relevant example, we head to Vegas this weekend to see Tears for Fears... we have a 3 night studio at Elara for only 750 points! (this was part of their year end special)

Let it go, let it go
Can't hold it back anymore
Let it go, let it go
Turn away and slam the door
I don't care what they're going to say
Let the storm rage on
The cold never bothered me anyway
