With an enrolled Marriott week, two Sheraton weeks at mandatory resorts, and a Hyatt week, I have plenty of "corporate" Interval International memberships. I also own a resale EOY Sheraton Desert Oasis (SDO) week. Question: Can I add my SDO to one of my many corporate II memberships? Or do I need to pay II for another membership to trade SDO?

Won't be able to add it to a corporate account unless you get it qualified to participate in VSN (Star Options) through an additional retail purchase, in which case it would be added to the same account as your mandatory Sheraton weeks. Barring that, yes, you'll need to pay for a separate II account.

A few in S and VA, a single resort in NC, MD, PA, and UT, plus Jamaica and the Bahamas
Basic answer is without spending thousands more on another developer purchase, you will have to maintain and pay for a separate Interval account for your non enrolled SDO weeks if you want to exchange them through II.

Thanks for the advice. Sounds like it's time to let this TS go.
SDO is a popular week to own as a trader, but for an EOY week the economics aren't all that great. You basically have to carry an annual II membership which increases the overall cost of exch exchange...

True, which is why it would work great for someone who already had an individual Interval International membership. No additional II costs.
