• Diamond classifies Owners into three classes or groups:
1. Warrantee-Deeded Owners – Deeded owners, who deal directly with their home resort. If you sell this ownership, you are selling a deed. These owners exchange through Interval International and/or RCI.
2. THE Club Warrantee-Deeded Owners – Deeded owners who are part of Diamond’s THE Club and use their Club points through Diamond to access their home resort and other resorts within THE Club. If you sell this ownership, you are selling a deed, same as the Warrantee-Deeded Owners. You cannot sell THE Club membership. The new owner would have to purchase a Club membership separately. There is an inheritance exception to this.
3. Diamond Trust Owners – Trust point owners who use their trust points through Diamond to access the resorts in the specific Collection Trust they own. They have given up their deed to Diamond; they have no voting privileges at their home resort when they sell, they are selling the specific trust points only.
• Club points and Trust points are two different things.
• There is more than one trust; each trust has access to different Diamond properties.
• Availability is in accordance to the number of owners in each class or group. If 50% of the owners are Warrantee-Deeded Owners then 50% of the rooms are available to them. If 30% of the owners are Club members then 30% of the rooms are available to them. If 20% of the owners are Trust members then 20% of the rooms are available to them. As these percentages change, so do the number of rooms available to a group but also the number of owners vying for those rooms also changes. For example is the number of deed owners decreases to 45% there will be fewer rooms available to them but also fewer owners vying for those rooms. If the percentage increases for a group, there are more rooms available to that group but also more people vying for those rooms.
• Making reservations: Warrantee-Deeded Owners can generally make reservation 12 months in advance; Club Warrantee-Deeded Owners can make reservations at their home resort 12 months in advance; Trust Owners can make reservations at their home resort at 13 months in advance. This does not give Trust owners an advantage over other owners. Remember the 13 months only applies to their pool of rooms. The other two groups are making reservation from different pools.
Diamond Resorts International (DRI) generates income through management fees of its branded and managed resorts; and by selling timeshare ownership points through THE Club.
