She's now graduated from college so it's just us, and you can definitely find better rentals that are less than the maintenance fees along with the cost with RCI or II to exchange. Just needed to vent. Thanks.Remember, you will age and your income will probably decrease. It was fun and good when we had 3 children and 2 adults, but now with only 2 adults and the maintenance fees twice what they were in 1997 when we purchased, it feels more like a millstone around our necks that we are stuck with for life. I find excellent rentals through the vacation by owner websites, like vrbo and homeaway for less than my annual maintenance fees. We also have an aging dog that we don't like to leave so now rent pet-friendly condos and homes.
