  1. Bob Diver Bob, I’m just speculating too, but I think Scott is right. When you buy from trust, you don’t own any specific property. You own a small portion of the trust that owns all the properties. That ownership is expressed as points. When you sell, you sell the actual points. The purchaser gets your points, but with those restrictions.

  2. Don Symons Hopefully that's the case.
    There are some documents available about the trust. They are very dense and I don't have the patience to read through them all. The link as posted in the fb thread - http://orangelake.com/legaldocuments/index.php

    Scroll down the left hand panel to the trust document section and the trust documents show up in the right panel.

    I searched the FL land trust document and found this about rentals...
    GAE means GlobalAccess Exchange, LLC, the owner and operator of the Club and its
    successors and assigns.

    v. Points Transactions. There are fees associated with various Club Points
    transactions as follows:

    Timeshare Period Expenses must be paid)
    Renting Bonus Points - To be determined by GAE from time to time, when available.

    13. Non-Recurring Club Points (Bonus Points)
    From time to time, GAE may, in its discretion, offer Members the opportunity to obtain
    by a variety of methods non-recurring Club Points. These non-recurring Club Points
    shall be referred to as "Bonus Points," or otherwise as determined in GAE's discretion.
    The method by which such Bonus Points may be obtained by Members and others shall

    Bonus Points at any time during the term of the Membership Agreement. Availability of
    Bonus Points in any particular Use Year is dependent upon the then current availability
    within the Club as is determined by GAE in its sole discretion.
