She should be able to submit a “potential” unit for evaluation and then if she wants, she can then book the unit with Sunterra and complete the deposit. I have previously done this with one of my timeshares. Unfortunately, with 4500 points, I don’t think Jessica can book much more than a studio, during a high demand period.

(Fellow posters...do any of you know if depositing a unit booked with Sunterra Points is permissible or would it have the same restrictions as depositing an RCI or II exchange?)It's my understanding that you must book a week before submitting to Redweek. Redweek doesn't take points from other groups. I would suggest she book a holiday week, spring break week in Florida or a week in the Colorado Rockies during ski season or any other week that's in high demand.
In this day, depending on the supply and demand of a resort, one does well to get their maintenance fees in return when renting their week contrary to what a slick developer timeshare salesperson may have told you.
