I have a 2 Br unit in Mauii. Redweek evaluation is 2684 Pts. I forgot to mention that it is a lock off unit .Do they give more points for lock off ? I think also that they should mention that unit as a 2br , studio or 1br for exchange because some people just need a studio or 1 br , and not 2br.
=============== If you deposited a 2BR, it is irrelevant to Redweek whether or not it is a lock-off. RedWeek should not split the unit. If you own a lock-off, you may want to request valuations for each part of your unit.
================ Isn't the number of persons a unit will sleep relevant in Redweek evaluations? Usually, a 2BR sleeps 6 private and a full 2BR lock-off sleeps 8 private because there are two living rooms with sleeper sofas.

It occurs to me that RedWeek has an advantage over RCI/II in that to deposit a L-O with RCI/II as two 1BRs means you will pay two exchange fees to use your deposits and can't re-combine them. Since RW gives you points, you can make two exchanges OR combine the points from these two 1BR units to snag one larger unit and do it with a single exchange fee. More options are a good thing. MD

=========== For what it's worth, if someone owns at an RCI Points resort and does a Points For Deposit using an RCI weeks unit, they will also get more points to deposit the L/O separately then if they did a PFD of the 2 BR as a one unit.
