Re: How can I rent a timeshare? (by R P.):

Outright ask the renter if it's an exchange that you're interested in renting. It's your right to know. If they say yes, then tell them that you cannot rent it since it's against RCI or II's policies.

If it's an exchange that's being rented the exchanger will have to buy a guest certificate from RCI or II to put the rental in your name. If they have to buy a guest certificate that should ring a bell with you that the rental is an exchange.

Another way to make sure that the rental is not an exchange is to ask the renter to send you some sort of proof of their ownership of that week.
