I bought at Shadow Ridge Enclaves (platinum) recently. From the developer which I know now wasn't the greatest idea but of course I discovered all the info about resales too late (guess they were hoping just that!) Anyway in spite of that I am really excited to start TSing. I already booked 2 platium weeks for 2010 at Shadow Ridge. I used the lockoff so I now have 2 to trade.
Here's the question: What can I even see offered to me with my studio? Only studios? What if the place I want to go doesn't have them? Can I even try for them? I can't get on II yet so I can't run a test but from what I have read here it seems there are some choices you can't even put yourself on the list for when trading up. Here are the places I would like to trade for next year: Williamsburg, HHI (Barony or Grande Ocean which I know are popular) or Timber Lodge Lake Tahoe. All in July/August, the hardest time to get. I think my 1BR won't be as hard to trade. The point of buying the lockoff was to have 2 weeks but they don't tell you you may not get anything you want with them! Also, what chance is there to upgrade to a 1 BR after making the trade for a studio? Sorry, lots of questions from this Marriott newbie!!
