Question about Disney World time share rental (by R P.):
bethl143 wrote:We are researching renting a time share for Disney World this summer. We are considering renting from an individual owner but we prefer to use escrow - not a big hit with the owners and I'm concerned with scammers. Are there any other ways to go that will protect us? Is paypal a good option? Credit card? It looks like escrow offers the best protection but it might be a pain for the owner since they don't get their money right away.How does the Disney meal dining plan work with a Disney rental? Does the owner have to make the request?
Has anyone dealt with DVC rental store or another company that rents out Disney World time shares? We would pay a higher premium for the rental but it might be worth it if it's a reputable company. I would prefer to go through redweek but I want to keep my options open. Thanks for your help. -Beth

As long as there is a rental contract in place, you should be able to trust an owner with an ad on Redweek.
You can 'search forums' for a rental contract that you can send to the owner to fill out and then send back to you or the owner may have one of his/her own.
Don't know anything about the Disney Dining Plan.
