Share your trading power RCI TPU & Maintenance fees

[decadude]

I am just trying to share and see if there are better options out there. From what I have seen a week 52 lockoff in the Orlando area seems to have the highest be value for TPU trading.

I own a Vacation Village at Parkway week 52 that nets about 80 to 90 points locked off with RCI in two separate deposits and the maintenance is at around $950 I believe somewhere in there I don't remember the exact number I paid this year.

Also the grandview deed I have that is annual is 122,000 points at around $850 maintenance.

Just curious what if anything else is out there that is better than what I have.

It's hard to top the grandview deal. I pay the same as you for 98K points, but I was able to acquire it for $250 out the door, while at the time the 122K units were going for $3000 plus fees.

I've found 98K points is plenty for my needs, but some may want more.

I have seen some 151,000K Regal Vistas units at around $1,000 a year in fees.

That's all I know.

Thanks for the reply Regal Vistas I never knew about them good to know there is another option I wonder if there is anyone that will let us know about other TPU traders versus points units everyone in this space knows about Grandview

I have a Regal Vistas unit in July week and get 185k RCI points for $1,000 in fees.

bumping my post I hopefully we can get more activity on this post the regal vistas ownership is a good one that I did not know about.

I have a eoy and an annual studio - $300 a year in fees for both and usually 13 tpus for each studio deposit, so it’s about 19 tpus per year averaged out.

Regal vista is by far the best value. 4 bedroom redweeks are worth 178K points with a low MF. The 2 bedrooms which are technically 4 bedrooms EOY are 89k points annually for $550 MF.

woodstone will also be high in TPU or points compared to the GV units. The only thing I can say for certain is the MF at GV has been pretty consistent. Even if the massanutten fees increase, there is still some time for the ratio to balance out compared to the GV units.

What is the value of 80K RCI points?

I see a Las Vegas resale of a fixed week #5 2BR/2BA lockoff MF $850 with 80K RCI points....I don't know a thing about RCI....what would 80K RCI points do for me each year?

TPU's for me at Pres Villas, weeks 24-32, $948 for 59 TPU's. That is pretty good. Used to be 101 TPU's.

I have a week 13, 2-bedroom lockout unit at Quarter House in New Orleans, total of ~70 TPUs for $685 in maintenance fees. Not too shabby.

I get 86 TPUs (45 + 41) for splitting my 3-bedroom lock-off into a 2 bedrooms unit and 1 bedroom unit at Silver Lake Resort for this year, 2020, for $1046 in MF dues. I am getting the same 86 TPUs (45 + 41) for next year, 2021, as well, but need to see what the new MF due will be, as I only prepaid MF estimates for 2021. Hoping it will stay that same, as the MF only went up once this year about $31 over the last 6 years of ownership, which pleasantly surprised me. All my other timeshares, the MF dues goes up every year.

While I love all the TPUs I am getting, the truth of the matter is, I simply don't have enough vacation time, even with 7 weeks of time off ever year, since I own too many other timeshares (HGVC / WorldMark / and 2 DVCs). While it's a good problem to have, having more TPUs than you can ever use, I am forever paying combine / extension fees so that that extra boatload of TPUs don't expire.

If my Silver Lake Resort is my only timeshare, it would be perfect, or if I am retired, it would be awesome too. So, yes, I love my Silver Lake Resort ownership, but will probably need par down on my timeshare ownership in the next couple of years, as I got almost 300 TPUs saved up still, while having already taking 9 weeks of RCI Weeks vacations, and 2 more weeks coming up next year, 2021, to the HGVC Bay Club.

Cheers,

Is this a fixed or floating week? If floating what week are you reserving to deliver the 86 TPUs?

Wish you could sell some of those TPU's. I could surely use a few.
