Was getting worried because my last few GO gold weeks weren't getting much interest, and I thought my ownership/rental plan was going to start to suffer because of the economy.
Well I'm please to report that things aren't as bad as they appear. It was Redweek again that came through for me, and actually on the same day no less. And the next day someone express serious interest in my Maui week.
What I'm seeing is people are waiting longer to pull the trigger on rentals, but are still planning on taking one no matter what the economy. I just purchased two NCV for usage and rental purposes. Let's see how they fit into my portfolio.
As a sidenote, Ebay again proved to be ineffective for sellers as it is just a low-baller's market in my opinion. I was panicking alittle and lowered my price on ebay to try to rent and only got low ball offers. I listed them severals times. I almost took $700, but didn't bite.
Then on Friday, bang two serious renters from Redweek surfaced, and we agreed by Monday on prices $450 more than any offer I received via ebay.
Marriott and Redweek is a good combination!!
Regards.
