Need help to Rent or Sell my T/S in Hawaii using RCI (by Debbie C.):
I own a 2 bdr every year floating week thru RCI at The Point at Poipu (frmrly Embassy Vacation Resort) in Kauai. I have found it almost impossible to be able to exchange for a specific area (ie: Vacouver or Victoria in BC for Jun-Aug 08) and am now looking for alternative ways to use the week. If I want to rent the week should I reserve a specific week (summer, Christmas, etc) and then list that week for rent or list the entire year Jan-Dec 08 and let the prospective renter select the date that they want and then call the resort and book that week?
If I reserve a specific week and find a renter what are the procedures that I need to follow for a smooth transaction for both parties?
If I don't reserve a specific week, and list the entire year, once a potential renter is found what are the steps to follow?
Also what is the most common procedure for deposits and contracts?
Is there somewhere I can go to get a step by step "playbook".
I am new at this and all help would be appreciated. I also do not use the internet much and am totally lost with all of this. thanks
