Rent Question-What Do Those Dates Mean?
Hi. Trying to get knowledgeable before I take the plunge and post my week for rent here on Redweek. Some of the listings that I see have dates that run from as long as 1-1-07 to 12-31-08! That's a 2 year stretch! Does this represent a listing by an actual owner or is this redweek posting "code" that the listing is actually from a time share reseller organization hoping to attract would be buyers. I don't care, as long as it is legit, and will not hurt the market for my unit. Another listing that will affect the market for certain because it is so low priced is for dates that are Monday to Monday, and I know for certain that the resort (Sheraton Vistana Resort) involved does not book this way! So does a listing like this signify anything that I am missing, other than perhaps improper dating and below market pricing? Thanks for any thoughts!

Maybe so, jayjay, but I'd like to hear from some RedWeek.com "insiders" about it. Another example is how or why some rentals are advertised as 7 day rentals yet list dates as " 12-28-06 to 12-30-06" !!!! Is this just bad review or what?
