Why did RW end DIY rentals?

I manage timeshare rentals. I pay owners when I provide a guest, I need to be paid when a guest commits to the rental. I won't wait 2 to 12 months to receive the money on RW, if I'm going to wait for the money I want to be paid more, such as I earn on other sites like TripAdviaor.

Also, while I do pay RW for some of their managed listings, usually because your managed listing has the dates I need, you guys charge way too much for your services and I usually book direct with owners because paying via PayPal costs me or the owner a lot less money.

You are currently the primary DIY timeshare listing website and you will drive owners to other websites now, creating a competitor.
