Contact me if you are looking for HICV points units - the list I maintain has quite a bit of updates including new units, 2018 maintenance updates, and new market value structure that takes increases in maintenance fees into account

I recently helped my dad setup his HICV account - here's the process:

After the unit is gone from the previous owner's account, have the new owner call HICV Deeding at 407-239-5170 and given them the previous owner's contract number - they will verify identity and give you the new owner's HICV ID, which you can enter online to setup a new account. When he first tried the online setup, it wasn't working, but a couple of days later it worked. I'd estimate 1-2 weeks from transferring out of the old account to being able to make online account - not sure how quickly you can call HICV and get the new owner account number, but if you start checking regularly in these timeframes, you should be able to get it setup before you get HICV letter in the mail.

Do Orlando owner/guest reservations require a daily resort fee? Hotels.com shows $7.95.

My wife and I own units in Florida and Virginia.

My wife and I own units in Florida and Virginia. I noticed that some of the deeds are owned jointly as JTWROS and others are owned as Joint Tenants in common. I would like to change the deeds on those units so that all units are JTWROS. I would also like to include my adult children on at least one of the deeds. What is the simplest way to do this?

What is the best way to guarantee that our kids inherit our club status?

What is the best way to guarantee that our kids inherit our club status? Eg, we are Premier owners, but if we just leave our weeks to them, they would not get the points or perks. The disclosure guide explicitly says you can transfer your membership (not just weeks to family members, but if you are still using the club (and expect to for another 20 years or so) and if you have 4 adult children, how do you set it up so that they can get the free upgrades etc when we are finished using it? Thank you!

Anyone ever had an issue where your account is suspended for maintenance not paid on a newly transferred unit that they have not generated a statement for? I called in to get details on a suspended account and told them I would pay maintenance as soon as they could provide a copy of the maintenance statement and they said it would take up to 2 weeks and that my account would be suspended until I paid. Any way around this other than paying whatever they say I owe before I see a statement?

Hey guys!

Hey guys! I am an owner of 96k points at the Orange Lake Resort. Anyone know much about selling your timeshare? Not a lot of resources out there.

Hello!

Hello! I am a new club owner. I might not have gotten a deal, but I think I am good with it. We bought a Piney Shore unit for 120,000 points for 0.15c/point with $790 maintenance fee ( I intend to finance my purchase with a low interest credit card). For me to get the value of the maintenance fee and membership fee, I think I have to use my timeshare at Signature places once a year, but I know the 120,000 points will not suffice. So I am looking to buy more points eventually. If I buy points, do I have to have another maintenance fee?
