Thanks all for your feed back. I read in our TS package that our home resort does not guarantee that our unit for rent; so if I put it in the rent and if it can't rent out my week, what will happen with it?

It will probably stay empty that week.....or it should. That is why the exchange companies have grown....if you can't rent or use your own place....at least you can trade it...for another time. Sometimes, if you deposit the week right, you can wait for several years .

Sometimes (if your flexible with vacation time) you might be able to use two weeks you gave in for exchange for a two week vacation back to back. It takes planning, but can be done. ( Like 2 weeks in Mexico, Key West.....or see if availability is there for a first week in Orlando (an easy trade) with a beach front unit in Ft Meyers or Ft Lauderdale.

====== Yes, with the "cost of getting there" being a big part of many vacations, staying longer is a good plan if you have that option. In Mexico last year we traded two white time Silver Crown Bransons for two consecutive November weeks at two different Gold Crown resorts in Puerto Vallarta. Got to know different parts of town! RCI? Yup. MD
