Taking in the sunrise over the ocean from your balcony, maximizing your time on the slopes with ski-in ski-out options, enjoying incomparable resort-like amenities and finding comfort in familiar settings are just some of the advantages of owning a timeshare. But when you can’t use your allotment, renting out your unused weeks can be a great way to offset your annual costs—and even earn some additional revenue. To maximize your chances for rental success when posting your units, you should look for a platform that understands this unique accommodation type.
A purpose-built platform
The RedWeek marketplace, designed specifically to help timeshare owners rent out unused weeks, is perfectly positioned to highlight the best aspects of a timeshare property. The marketplace brings together owners and travelers interested in this type of accommodation—timeshare rentals–and ensures that both parties have a positive experience. How? Travelers gain access to RedWeek’s enviable portfolio of trusted brands and hotel-aligned vacation clubs like Marriott, Disney and Hyatt and can book with confidence, while owners can draw on RedWeek’s decades of expertise to rent their property efficiently and quickly.
DIY or full-service: the choice is yours
When you offer your timeshare week for rent on RedWeek, you can manage your posting entirely on your own, get a little help, or go completely turnkey. With the do-it-yourself basic option, RedWeek advertises your rental to its community of over three million travelers through e-mail alerts and on the website for up to six months while you finalize the contracts, details and payment.
For a little more support, you can opt for DIY & Verified. Your posting gets a verified label, which ups the trust factor, and you gain access to RedWeek’s online booking platform, which allows the renter to pay online via credit card and digitally sign an online agreement. Owners simply need to accept an offer when it comes in and add the guest’s name to the reservation.
If you’d rather have the entire process managed from end to end, RedWeek’s full-service package might be your best bet. With it, you get genuinely unmatched support, including pricing review and guidance, dedicated phone support and professional inquiry management. All payments are processed by RedWeek online so both you and the renter feel extra secure, and RedWeek promises to advertise your rental until it’s been booked.
Ultimately, whichever option you select, when you choose to rent your unused timeshare week with RedWeek, the chances of successfully matching with a renter are extremely high. That’s because RedWeek is the largest online marketplace for “by-owner” timeshare rentals and attracts travelers who understand the value proposition of this type of accommodation. For owners looking for a hassle-free way to offset their annual costs for unused timeshare weeks, renting has never been easier or more secure.
