Do they own a week that gives them points in RCI or is it a week they would have to deposit to trade to stay at a different resort? If it's points then how many points do they get every year or every other year? Do they even really understand what they have?
It's a shame to walk away from what they spent. I can pretty much guarantee they are overwhelmed trying to learn the RCI system or may not even know where to start. We owned at our first resort in RCI for a couple of years and had points we couldn't extend again before I finally forced myself to buckle down and really learn a second timeshare system. Once I leaned to use the RCI system we were using it so much I started looking for something else to buy to get more points. That's when I found us a resale points week at Grandview at Las Veags, a different Vacation Village property, which gave us benefits we didn't have with our first resort in RCI.
Since they bought directly from Vacation Village at Parkway they may have the Vacation Village Plus program. That's something that doesn't come with resale and as far as I know doesn't transfer with resale either. That gives them additional benefits that they're likely missing out on.
I've mentored other people here on TUG helping them learn to use what they own through RCI. I'd be happy to help them too. If they're interested you're welcome to private message me and I'll give you my phone number to have them call me.
Yes, she does get RCI points.
I'm meeting up with her later today to go over her paperwork.
Yes they bought direct .
She told me last night she just wants to get rid of it.
Nothing is owed, no mortgage, maintenance fees up to date. She going to list it for $0 and she'll pay closing costs and transfer fees.
She just doesn't want it.
I believe because it's a mistake she made and having it reminds her of it.
We've all been there, done that.
But helping others, helps them feel like their not alone.
