I know you are looking for a detailed, specific rule, but there are plenty of reasons for Disney to prefer to keep it vague. If they designate a number of rentals that owners are allowed to make, any “professional” renters would do that exact number of point rentals year in, year out, safe in the knowledge that they would never be questioned. While a member who has owned points since 2010 to take his extended family on a GV trip every year, never renting out points, might be unable to travel one year due to health reasons and rent his points out instead, accidentally exceed the limit, and be flagged as “commercial”, even though someone like this should clearly be cut some slack. You can tell Disney that they “need to be specific” all you like, but I suspect that they prefer to use a “we know it when we see it” approach.
And I am perfectly okay, and I think most owners would be okay with having clear guidelines, even if it means those renting know what is okay…that’s the whole purpose.
I don’t want ambiguity when it comes to decided if what I am doing is okay. If I know that I can’t use a rental broker to rent, then that should be said. Don’t let me do it and say, whoops, that’s a no no.
I think you still have to go back to the 2007 language as insight into DVCs level of reaonsableness in setting standards.
To tell me, well, go ahead and rent and will let you know if you are in violation just can’t work…unless there is no risk to me as an owner to violate.
At least in the 2007 language, you know you were capped at 20 reservations total in a 12 month span unless you provided proof none were rentals…
That is what we need today if those are not still the level of triggers…
