As DeniseM mentions - there is often confusion about the terms StarOptions (SO = Timeshares, called StarOption Points by SVO/SVN) and StarPoints (SP = hotel, called StarPoints by SPG)
SPs are never transferrable upon resale. The resale week can be brought into SVN by a requal/retro upon buying a Developer week from SVO (prearranged upon agreement of the Developer/SVO purchase) - and then the week could be converted to SPs for SPG (Hotel usage).
What they are confusing is SOs vs. SPs.
With Mandatory SVO resorts (limited) - SOs do transfer upon resale (to use within SVN for SO exchanges).
SVV is a Mandatory resort - except the Amelia Phase & St. Augustine phase (careful there...).
It is easier to think of the resorts that do have StarOptions that transfer upon resale (Mandatory SVN):
Harborside
Westin St John (VG phase only)
SVV (except Amelia phase & St. Augustine phase)
Westin Kierland Villas
Westin Ka'anapali Ocean Resort Villas (both South and North resorts)
They are called Mandatory because the new owner must join SVN (Starwood Vacation Network) at a fee of ~$114 for the week and ~$33 for the 2nd week (3+ weeks have no additional charge) - no choice in this whether you want it or not (therefore mandatory).
The other resorts are Voluntary because you can choose to join SVN if you buy from SVO (Developer) - or as stated - you requal/retro the weeks with a SVO purchase, or SVO decides to allow owners into SVN if they choose. So... generally, SPs do not come with resale.
Caution: SVV is not SVR - SVR resorts are not Mandatory and SOs do not transfer upon resale.
confused...? you are not alone - but you came to the right place.
