What is a Float Pool?
This is a group of units, with the same size, occupancy and general location, who have the same float period. If a week an owner requests is not available in his own unit, but is available in another unit, then the owner can “float” into another similar unit. (See below) Can you give me more details about this choosing? Each week is assigned a Priority Number out of the “Float Size”. For instance, if there are 30 weeks in a float (three units, 10 week float pool), then each owner will have a number between 1 and 30. Each pool has an “Advance Number”. (about 1/3 of the pool, say 9 or11 for a pool of 30- not 10) Let us say they were choice number 24 this year, then next year they would be choice number 13, and the next year choice number 2, and the next year choice 21, and so on. Isn’t this complicated? Float systems are used world wide in many timeshare resorts to allow the owners to vary the time they stay at their home resort. The major detraction is that it is difficult to explain to
