Hello,

I am currently in the process of purchasing a diamond Resorts timeshare from another member from this forum. I was told the week is 1-52 float but on the estoppel I received today says "fixed" and the season is "diamond".

The seller assured me that the week is in deed a float week.

Should I be worried?

Thank you!!

Many resort systems originally sold fixed weeks that were later "upgraded" to some kind of point program/ float status -via an additional payment
This could very well be the "history status of your resale purchase.

This is quite common within Wyndham. It is also likely common with Diamond ; since Diamond grew
by acquiring smaller TS systems and upselling owners of fixed weeks.

What season is Diamond and what is the name of the DRI resort?

Please do not pay full retail price for the resort.

This is a resale purchase as T-Dot-Traveller mention in the above post #2.
