As Ken stated the escrow is a safe way to go but many owners like myself would never agree to it!
I have one of our two Lake Tahoe unit for rent for Labor Day Week this year. If rented we will probably be renting at a different resort from another owner for a second vacation so rental money will be used. Only reason to rent is we have both units in even years and will already be up for our July 4th week.
Many owners have this same kind of plan and others just paying maintenence fee and taxes just need the money. So you can see if you rented now from a owner like myself I would have to wait until mid Sept to see my money and it would be no use to me for my vacation.
Someone with a week earlier in the year might do it because they would still have most of the year for their vacations.
Hope this helps! PHIL
