Timeshare Exchanges

Deposit 2Bed LockOff or make 2 1 Bed Deposits?

Mar 25, 2010

Hi all,

I have a 2 Bedroom lock-off unit at Harborside Atlantis. I'm wanting to deposit that week with Interval International and my question is thus:

Should I deposit as 1 week for a 2 bedroom ? Or deposit as two separate 1 bedroom units?

When I eventually do exchange and find somewhere to use those weeks, it will normally be in Europe and there never seems to be much choice so I don't think I get full value if I deposit a 2Bed week as the properties that show up on searches when I've previously looked to exchange aren't nearly as good or as plentiful as those in North America / Caribbean.

I really don't know how the game works with exchanges and would appreciate advice from anyone who has thoughts on the issue.

Many thanks!

It depends on what you want in a future exchange .... if you want to exchange into a two bedroom, then I'd deposit it as a two bedroom lockoff (one bed on each side), but if you don't mind exchanging into a one bedroom, then I'd deposit the lockoff as two different units.

Did you ever think about renting your unit? You'd probably get enough $$ to cover your costs for a Europe trip. You could rent them together or separately (and deposit the other lock-off)
