Re: Selling Time Shares (by KC):

Jayjay has mentioned above that "RedWeek doesn't offer points for sale, only weeks".

An RCI Points week is, on paper anyhow, really just a specific "week" at some particular RCI Points resort. It simply has an RCI Points allocation associated with it ---and can still be used as a "week" at the home resort, if the owner chooses. Accordingly, a "RCI Points week" can be sold just like any other (non-RCI points) "week".

RCI Points can't be ever sold or rented out BY THEMSELVES by any RCI Points owner, except as part of the sale of the entire "RCI Points week" ownership (these are RCI rules, regardless of RedWeek practices). Unused RCI Points can be carried over from one year to the next by the RCI Points account owner (into his/her own account). A RCI Points owner can also "borrow" from (his/her own) next years' point allocation --- but that's it. Sale or rental of RCI Points alone, without actual sale of the entire underlying ownership, is prohibited and impossible to accomplish.

That all said, what I DON'T know is whether upon sale of a RCI Points week, any "carried over" RCI points (as already described above) can be transferred along to a new owner as a part of the sale. It MAY be that ONLY the underlying annual RCI Points allocation amount can actually get transferred in the course of a RCI Points week sale --- I just plain don't know. The answer, however, could certainly make a significant difference in the value of a "RCI Points week" being sold if there was a substantial number of "carried over" RCI Points in the account.
