Confusing
From posters you would think that trading your timeshare weeks or points to experience different places is a benefit of timeshare. You do not have to be concerned with always travelling to the same resort. In addition if you buy a timeshare with trading value in peak season not only can you trade for another locale but you can also trade for more time. One poster suggested that if I bought a 2 bedroom lockout I could trade for 3 weeks in non peak times. That would make the purchase more reasonable.
Others have suggested that we should define our vacation preferrances over the next 5 years and only then should we look at the differences between purchasing or renting.
What if we like a variety of vacations, not preferring to stay at the same hotel/resort every year. Isn't that what the majority of timeshare traders do? Is it worthwhile to do just that? Are you saving or at least breaking even in comparison to renters? Can you trade as easily as rent? Are there added costs in addition to the Management fees and membership fees in RCI, II, etc? Along the East coast what are the best traders? Is it the popular areas like Myrtle Beach , HH, or Orlando, or the out of the way places like St. Augustine, or Charleston or where?
