Renting out your points ?

[WDWLODGE]

I am in the process of renting out some of our points through a reputable site that you often see on the pop-up menus here. For those of you that have done this before, how long did it take this company to rent your points?

It depends on demand. There was no demand for my resort at 11 months and because I listed them at the premium price. I had no offers for a month.
Once I removed the premium and offered my points for use at other resorts at the 7 month mark, I was getting an email a day until my points were used up.

If your talking about Daves, then you could have them rented the same day to two weeks. They send an email out to many people and the first one back gets the deal. When I used to rent with them I would have mine rented in under one week.
Good luck

Thanks for the responses. We are using Dave's. I have our points listed as premium right now. They have been in the queue since November 4th and I haven't gotten any emails yet. Our home Resort is VWL, so I am wondering if the construction might be having an affect on bookings there. I think I am going to wait until early February to change from premium to non-premium.

VWL is in demand during the holidays. I'd expect your points to command a premium in January when next December reservations open up. Otherwise, the demand for VWL seems low.

I agree. We moved our VWL points over to the non-premium category with them. I do think that a lot of people are staying away this year and next due to construction.

I agree, I am hoping to get the premium rate for December reservations. If I don't get anything by early February, I'll accept the non-premium rate.

How about transferring your points instead of renting them? I had two people requesting to transfer my VWL points. I think owners maybe preparing for when the construction ends.

Out of curiosity why not post on this site ?

Have you ever tried renting yourself? The board on here is very easy, and you can have your own rate that you want. I now only rent here and find it easier and better for me then with Dave. No offense Dave

 

[briand1023]

Agreed. This site makes listing very easy.

Where on here can I find people renting out their points?

There is a rental board here in the DVC section of the DIS. You do need to be signed in to see it.

Thank you. I did find it. I don't know how, but I did.
