Re: Same boat new captain
Perry - You may have hit on one of the biggest reasons the choices in weeks trades have become so much less desireable. As owners figure out how to maximize value they are using the better units and times for PFD, rentals, SFX or other ways they can be reasonably certain of getting a fair trade. Meanwhile the 1BR, offseason and lockoffs get dumped on II & RCI since, like Joey, they eat anything. The all you eat exchangers can only exchange what they get and more and more that is the dregs I'm guessing. So besides the fact that the cream is going to other places by owners choice and some is being used by RCI/II as rental there is no surprise that whats left isn't the easy trade up it used to be to get a 2 bedroo for that offseason unit or a studio/1 bedroom. The systems are evolving and owners had better adapt as well.PerryM said:Many 2BR units are now rented with just the scrap lock-offs dumped into the exchange companies for hopefully an upgrade back to a 2BR unit. As it gets easier and easier to rent via the Internet, this is just going to escalate. Join the crown and get all the high demand holiday weeks you want in a 2BR on the rental sites.
