? Trading my 2 bedroom for a 1 bedroom and lock off and bonus week.

I have a questions about exchange value. I have a 2-bdr at a popular ski resort in Park City. It is a floating time (red week, not on points), although not in the holiday months of late Nov., Dec. and January. My question is this: If I direct deposit my 2 bdr and pay the exchange fee, is my share still being valued against what I want to reserve into? Am I automatically unqualified to find a 1bdr or 2 bdr in New York or DVC because someone thinks my resort is less valuable?

Generally, a 2bd week during ski season will have great trading power. But if the week is in "mud season" it will not have good trading power.

Once your week is deposited, the exchange company will assign it a "trading power" and that will not change.

You trading power will determine if you can get the resort you want. BUT the trading power to get a week will keep changing. As you get closer to checkin, the power need to get the week will generally get less and less till almost all deposited weeks can qualify for the week. ( your trading power will stay the same since it is locked as soon as you deposit the week)
