Re: renting a timeshare (by Don P.):
If a person owns a deeded week at a resort they can rent it to anyone they chose. If they own points at a resort or a vacation club there are usually restrictions to what they can do about using their unit. Some vacation clubs prohibit owners from renting out their weeks. You have to be careful and do some homework. Some owners try to sidestep the rules by claiming the renter is a guest but if they get caught they can be barred from future use. It's a buyer beware situation. Ask a lot of questions and buying renters insurance might be an option.
