|
How will a
traveler contact me to rent or buy my timeshare? |
|
| There are several different
ways that a traveler may contact you. The most common method is by
sending you an email. We pride ourselves on the privacy we provide our members, therefore your actual email address will never be seen.
If a traveler wants to contact you via email, they will fill out a brief on-line
form which will then send you an email in a matter of seconds.
However, your email address will never be known to them until you reply to
their initial email. By not allowing web surfers to view your email
address, you will never receive spam email from someone who searches from
site to site to add email addresses to their spam list. Be very
careful about which sites you give your email addresses to. Be sure to
never give your email address to a site that openly displays your email
address. You never know who is viewing it! We will never give
your email address to a third party, nor will we ever allow someone to send
you spam from our site. Another way a traveler may contact you is by
calling you using the phone number that you listed during the sign-up
process. They may also send you a fax if you choose to list a fax number
during the sign-up process or by later
editing your contact
information.

kept private? |
|
| YES! All personal
information is stored on our secure server during the sign-up process and
during any process of making changes to your listing(s). Be very
careful when giving any website your personal information, especially credit
card information. Always make sure that the web address (http://www.WebAddress.com) starts with "https://". If you do not see the 's'
at the end of the "http", then you are not on a secure page!
It is possible that someone may collect what you have entered! At VacationTimeshareRentals.com, all credit card
information is stored in a secure database on a secure and different server than the
server we use to store our normal web pages. This ensures that your personal

What is "Automatic renewal"? |
|
| When listing your timeshare
rental and paying via a credit card, you will be asked if you want to
automatically renew your listing each year. This simply means we will
add another year to your listing's expiration date without you having to do
anything and charge your credit card the current yearly listing rate.
We will send you an email notice at least 7 days before we actually renew
your listing to let you know that we will be making a charge to your credit
card. This will give you enough time to contact us in the case that
you want your listing deleted or want to skip the current year. It
works exactly like a subscription.

|
What is a "Featured Listing"? |
|
| A "Featured Listing" is our
premium listing. It includes a direct "pay-per-click" Sponsored link
(we pay the search engines every time someone clicks on your link) from the
12 largest search engines in the world (Google, Yahoo!, MSN, AOL, AltaVista, Lycos, CNET, InfoSpace,
Overture, DogPile, Compuserve, and Netscape) directy to your listing!
We are the ONLY timeshare rental website to offer such a feature! All "Featured
Listings"
also appear at the top of the
VacationTimeshareRentals.com search results for your particular
Country/State/Island and/or City. The cost of a "Featured Listing" is
an additional US$20 a year. We can assure you that a "Featured Listing"
is well worth the added cost!

Can I advertise my timeshare
for sale? |
|
|
Yes, you may advertise your timeshare available for sale
and/or rent. The cost is exactly the
same whether or not you advertise your timeshare for sale. |
| |
|
What is a timeshare rental? |
|
| To define a timeshare
rental, we must first define a timeshare. A timeshare is basically a
pre-paid vacation agreement between the vacation resort and the timeshare
owner. While several involve recorded deeds, others are simply
contracts guaranteeing the owner a number or amount of time (usually a week
or several weeks) at the particular resort. Owners typically pay a contract
price for the timeshare, in addition to the annual maintenance fees. Most
resort properties that sell timeshares will affiliate themselves with
associations that facilitate exchanges of weeks between different resorts.
Therefore, a timeshare rental is simply the owner of the timeshare allowing
a particular traveler or travelers to rent out his vacation time (usually a
week or several weeks) at the resort for a fee. You do not have to pay
any maintenance fees, only the agreed upon price between you and the
timeshare owner. (back to
