Converting to Points

[gonoles Junior Member Find all posts View Profile Close gonoles]

I have owned at DRI Scottsdale Villa Mirage for about 10 years. I have a deeded week that I trade through RCI. I want to convert to points, but was told at a presentation today that I would get 5500 for my week and would need to buy 5000 points to have it converted. For the 5000 points it would be $14,000! (but I would get free roundtrip airfare to Hawaii as in incentive - what a bargain. ) My question is do I have other options and what is a resonable price to convert?

Thanks!

You are in the right place for advice ... read the thread at the top of the forum entitled "Latest Conversion info ( 1 2 3 ... Last Page)" You should be able to get a no hassel conversion for $2995 from any sales office is what I understand.

What is your ownership, size, fixed week# or floating weeks, tell us and we can verify the value.

My ownership

I own an annual one bedroom and the week is floating. I pay about $600 in MF a year.

Thanks

Then, 5500 is the correct quote, if you read the sticky posts that were referred to, do you now have any questions?
