Timeshare
points explained
We
are often contacted and asked how can we use our timeshare points? Well this
often depends on what timeshare points you have accumulated. Should you belong
to a timeshare resort affiliated to one of the timeshare exchange organizations
such as RCI (Resort Condominiums International) or Interval
International/Sunswop, your unit that you own with the resort has a certain
number of points allocated to it depending on the size of the unit and the time
of the year or week in which it is situated in. Obviously points accruing to
you should you decide to space bank your unit will be more if your unit is in a
high season as apposed to a unit in an out of season week. Also the number of
points that you will accrue depends on the size of the unit which you own.
There are other points that are allocated for timeshare in South Africa, these
being for ownership in holiday clubs.
If
you are approached to purchase points in a holiday club, one should always ask
questions such as what happens if I wish to dispose of these points in the
future, and how easy will it be to
obtain a holiday in a school holiday season. If the answers are vague and
cannot be substantiated by hard facts, one should seriously consider an
alternative such as a purchase in a timeshare project offering ownership of a
particular unit in a particular week which you can see, feel and appreciate the
view from and most importantly which you see yourself using each year.
Points
can be accrued for a period of current year + two years and enable you through
the reputable exchange organizations mentioned above to exchange through the
150 plus timeshare affiliated resorts in South Africa and up to 5000 plus
resorts world wide. Obviously there are exchange fees involved with exchanges
in South Africa costing between R350 and R1000 whereas overseas exchanges using
your points may cost you up to R3000. These exchanges however will often prove
to be just a small percentage of the normal cost of a holiday should you not be
benefiting from the value of the points you have accrued by banking your unit
with the exchange organizations.
Should
you wish to find out more about exchanges and the versatility of timeshare in
South Africa and overseas, contact Quantum Sun by visiting our website
