Re: How can I rent a timeshare? (by John F.):

Hi All,

Sorry to disappear, made the mistake of forgetting I'm not 18 anymore and the back has been killing me since Saturday afternoon.

Yes, we will do a rental escrow for a total of $69.

The TS today rental forms are good and are fairly worded for all. I too recommend them.

Proably the biggest value we add is taking a few minutes to make sure that the renter FULLY understand what is being rented, understands their obligations, and their expectations match reality. Frankly, spending the extra time to verify the details makes life easier as we avoid escrow disputes.

I have rented units I own since 2002 and find this "full disclosure" approach to be the way to make sure both parties are very happy at the end of the day.

Thanks for reading !!!

John

I'm not Jennie, but you can download or have snail mailed a rental contract from www.tstoday.com for a small fee.

This is the same rental contract that Jennie uses.

------------------------------------------------------------------ I, Jennie here. I have used the Timesharing Today Magazine "Document Kits" for years. It contains three complete sets of fill-in-the-blanks lease forms, with worksheets, detailed instructions, and model letters to send to the renter, and notifying the resort. These forms were prepared by the owner of the magazine, who is a practising attorney in New Jersey.

When you arrive at the home page at www.tstoday.com look in the left hand column and you will see "Document Kits" (bright green box). Click on the link to the rental kit there, or go directly to: https://tstoday.com/shop/docKits.aspxand

The cost, if delivered by regular mail, is $10. for 3 kits. The price is even lower if you choose to download it instantly.

(Timesharing Today also sells a "Resale Kit" for $35.00 Use the same link: https://tstoday.com/shop/docKits.aspx)

While you are at the website, you can order a free trial issue of their magazine, which is published 6 times a year. They have great articles that you will not find anywhere else. Their logo is: The Trusted Independent Voice of Vacation Ownership since 1991."

Better yet, consider ordering a one year subscription, which comes with a 100% satisfaction refund guarantee. If you become a subscriber, you will receive a user name and password (which changes every 2 months) that will give you on-line access to all of the articles they have published over 10 plus years.

I have no financial or other connection to this company. I have just been a happy subscriber for 12 years.
