Where Should I buy RCI points Time Shares, What should I know first? (by Micah O.):
My wife an I want to buy a timeshare (or timeshares) that we will primarily use to book last minute get-aways using the RCI points system... I think.
I have been trying to learn more and have talked to several time share resale brokers. But I know NOTHING really. I can not access the RCI site to see what I could really get with points until I have joined (maybe I should do that first).
I need some help. I have a big family (7 kids and my wife and I) so when we go away, if we are bringing the kids we would need a very large place, or several rooms. I want to get enough points to take a family vacation once a year for a week or so, and 3 to 4 get-aways.
Where should I go to buy RCI points timeshares? I have looked at some, and have started comparing maintenance fees, and annual fees. What else do I need to consider? Is there a broker that would be willing to spend the time to educate me? Everyone I have talked to seems to be in a hurry, I am assuming, because their commission is probably pretty small.
Please help me not make a mistake when I buy! Thanks!
