Hi, my mother and sister are both on a deeded Wyndham (140,000 annual points). My mom and dad bought this developer (she believes) and a little over 20 years ago (2003), she removed my dad and added my sister.
Here is the in from her account:
Home Resort: Club Wyndham Patriots' Place, Williamsburg, VA
Membership Type: CLUB WYNDHAM® Plus
Additional Programs: PlusPartners®
Contract Type: CLUB WYNDHAM® Select
Contract Details: Converted Fixed Week
Ideally, both mom and sister want out of the timeshare. My mom is terminal and we have a limited time to deal with this, so I am trying to figure the best course of action. My husband and I would like to take it over (my understanding is it would be my name only bc I am the relative?), but have a few questions. We were at Emerald Grande this past week and in talking to a guy, he said none of her benefits would transfer and we would lose Plus Partners and any other added benefits if she transferred to us.
They have active RCI weeks and RCI Points accounts. The RCI weeks has over 500 points currently. Both my sister and I jointly owned one timeshare each with our mom, but we gave those up a couple years ago, so the RCI weeks is no longer attached to a timeshare (despite still telling us we can deposit weeks for both). Will this transfer to me with the full 500 points or is it possible to separately create my own RCI membership and transfer points for the fee (I haven't checked if there is a limit of points per transfer). I am ok not having access to the points during the transfer, I just don't want to lose the points. Similarly, she has 320,000 in RCI Points that I'd need to book before transferring and then extend the rest. Would those be lost?
Is the best course of action to quit claim and then contact Wyndham for the transfer or go through their free transfer program (since this will be parent to child)? The transfer money costs aren't an issue, I would rather whatever is quickest before this becomes an estate issue.
Is there any benefit to keeping my sister or my mom on the account and adding me vs transferring to me? I am trying to see our best option(s) overall, including long-term since my mom is terminal. A few questions: If I was added vs a transfer, would her passing create issues with the Wyndham account at any point if she stayed on? If it is better to add me, can we also remove my sister during this time or would she need to stay on? Sister is more adamant on being completely off the timeshare if I were to be added, but I wasn't sure the downfalls to keeping my mom on since she's terminal if adding if better.
Any advice is appreciated! Thanks.
