Can I sell my timeshare and still keep my banked week with II or RCI or does that go to the purchaser of the timeshare.

If you have a private Acct. with II/RCI, then you will still own the Acct. and the deposits. Don't tell them that you sold the timeshare, and they will never know - you can keep it for rentals.

If it is a corporate Acct., that you pay for with your maintenance fees, then the Acct. will be closed when you sell your timeshare.

And just to flesh that out a little bit, you can transfer weeks with RCI using a form and a fee, if that is the deal you've made with your purchaser.

There is a way to transfer weeks with II as well, although previous threads about that have indicated that it's not the exact week that is transferred but a replacement sort of week, that would go into the purchaser's account, which may not have exactly the same trading power as the week being given up. It may be a bit better or a bit worse, as it's some sort of average of the weeks of that particular resort. There is a fee through II as well.

I'm wondering how people know that the week transferred in II is not the exact same "deposit". When I cancelled and received a "replacement week" the II rep entered all of the exact same details as my original deposit. There was not one thing different except it was missing the exchange history. Since II trading power is a mystery I am wondering how people know unless their replacement had a different label entered, and then it's still speculation.

With the OP's Starwood ownership, there is no "exact week," - it's just a deposit credit, anyway.

How can you tell if it is corporate or private?

If you pay II (directly) for a membership - it's private.

If your II membership is included in your resort ownership - it's corporate.

I have no direct firsthand knowledge, just what I've read here on TUG posted by others. Maybe it depends if the original deposit is an fixed week or not.

And there's probably no way to really absolutely know what you're getting, due to the mystery factor.
