TL;DR

  • Disney Vacation Club leads significantly in value, ranging from 1300¢ to 1900¢ per point.
  • Marriott Vacation Club occupies the mid-high tier at 35¢ to 90¢ per point.
  • HGV and Diamond Resorts offer 10¢ to 20¢ value, while Bluegreen and WorldMark sit slightly lower at 8¢ to 16¢.
  • Club Wyndham and Westgate operate on high volume, valuing under 1.2¢ per point.
  • Resale buyers should verify if their target brand is in the buying network before purchasing points for exit strategies.

Timeshare systems are not interchangeable dollars. A point from one brand holds vastly different utility and cash value than a point from another. This disconnect confuses owners trying to sell or rent out their interest. Some programs generate significant annual income relative to maintenance fees; others rely on volume rather than individual unit price. We analyzed current secondary market rates for 2026 to create this breakdown.

Understanding these numbers helps you gauge what you are actually buying. It also informs exit strategies when you need to close an account or recoup costs.

The Value Disparity Explained

If you look at the raw numbers, DVC stands apart from every other program. A single DVC point commands 1300¢ to 1900¢ on the rental market. Contrast that with Club Wyndham, where a point trades between 0.5¢ and 1.2¢. This is not a minor variance; it is an order of magnitude difference.

This happens because the systems function differently. High-value brands like Disney Vacation Club rely on scarcity and brand strength. Lower-value programs compensate by offering massive resort networks. You need 1,000 times more Wyndham points to match the rental value of a DVC portfolio.

Maintenance fees also play a role in this math. While we do not publish specific fee schedules here as they vary by deeded week or point year, owners generally find it harder to offset costs on low-per-point programs without renting out almost every single point annually. High-value points allow for more flexibility. You can carry the inventory longer without losing your investment entirely in fees.

Top-Tier Rental Value: DVC and Marriott

The highest rental values belong to Disney and Marriott. These two dominate the resale conversation because they maintain consistent secondary market demand.

Disney Vacation Club (DVC)

DVC points hold the highest per-unit value of any timeshare currency. The secondary market prices 1300¢ – 1900¢ for every single point. An owner with a typical allocation of 100–500 points can generate $1,300 to $9,500 in annual rental income if they rent out the entire holding. Our worked example shows a standard 300-point allocation renting for ~$3,900–$5,700/year.

There are 16+ home resorts under this brand. The parent company is Disney (Disney Signature Experiences). This high value makes it easier to justify the upfront cost of resale points compared to other systems. If you own DVC, your exit options are more liquid because many buyers specifically want the rental value. Renting DVC points is a common strategy for non-members to access Disney properties without buying in.

Marriott Vacation Club (Marriott VC)

Marriott sits just below Disney but remains strong among industry leaders. Per-point rental value lands between 35¢ and 90¢ on the secondary market. Typical owner allocations range from 1,000 to 15,000 points.

A standard 8,000-point allocation rents for ~$2,800–$7,200/year. The parent company is Marriott Vacations Worldwide (MVW), operating over 90 resorts globally. While the per-point price is lower than Disney, the total annual dollar value often matches DVC due to larger typical allocations. This makes it a solid middle-ground for investors looking for higher point counts without entering the ultra-high volume Wyndham sector.

Mid-Range Programs: HGV, Diamond, and Bluegreen

The mid-range consists of several major players that operate on similar pricing structures. You will notice HGV, Diamond, and Bluegreen often cluster in the 8¢ to 20¢ per point range.

Hilton Grand Vacations (HGV)

HGV points trade between 10¢ and 20¢ per point. Typical allocations sit between 2,000 and 50,000 points. A common portfolio of 26,000 points generates ~$2,600–$5,200/year in rental revenue. The network covers 150+ resorts including Diamond Resorts properties following the acquisition. HGV operates as a standalone entity under Hilton Grand Vacations, Inc.

Diamond Resorts

Diamond sits very close to HGV in value metrics. Per-point value ranges from 8¢ to 18¢. Owners typically hold 2,500–100,000 points. The worked example shows a 51,250-point allocation renting for ~$4,100–$9,225/year.

It is critical to note the corporate history here. Diamond Resorts was acquired by Hilton Grand Vacations in 2021 and now operates under HGV Max. There are 70+ resorts remaining in this portfolio. The integration means you might see points mixed or consolidated, but secondary market pricing treats them as a distinct unit type with these specific ranges.

Bluegreen Vacations

Bluegreen values align closely with Diamond. Points trade at 8¢ to 16¢ per point. Typical owner holdings range from 4,000 to 60,000 points. A representative 32,000-point allocation rents for ~$2,560–$5,120/year.

In terms of corporate structure, Bluegreen was acquired by Hilton Grand Vacations in 2024. Despite this change, it retains its own point system and branding. There are 60+ resorts available to owners. Because the values mirror Diamond closely, buyers often treat them as interchangeable for value assessment purposes.

WorldMark by Wyndham

WorldMark operates under Travel + Leisure Co. but uses a distinct credit system called WorldMark Credits. Value sits between 7¢ and 14¢ per point. Allocations are generally 5,000–30,000 points. A typical 17,500-point allocation rents for ~$1,225–$2,450/year.

There are 90+ resorts within the WorldMark network. This system often appeals to those who want flexibility across locations without the complexity of Club Wyndham's exchange system. WorldMark ownership is distinct from the main Club Wyndham brand despite sharing a corporate parent.

High Volume, Low Value: Wyndham and Westgate

At the bottom of the per-point value scale are Wyndham and Westgate. These systems rely on volume. You need hundreds of thousands of points to match the rental income of a small DVC holding.

Club Wyndham

Wyndham is the largest network by resort count with 230+ locations. However, the per-point value is extremely low, ranging from 0.5¢ to 1.2¢. To generate meaningful cash flow, owners must hold massive allocations, typically 50,000–1,000,000 points.

A worked example of a 525,000-point allocation rents for ~$2,625–$6,300/year. This requires a significant initial purchase or resale investment to match the income of smaller holdings elsewhere. The parent company is Travel + Leisure Co. (formerly Wyndham Destinations).

Westgate Resorts

Westgate offers 22+ resorts and operates as a privately held company under Central Florida Investments. Value drops even lower here, with points trading at 0.4¢ to 1¢ per point. Allocations are high volume, often 50,000–500,000 points.

A standard 275,000-point allocation rents for ~$1,100–$2,750/year. While Westgate has value for personal use, the secondary market liquidity and cash-out potential differ from major brands. Buyers must be careful to understand that the low per-point price means you hold many units of currency for less money, but those units also burn fees annually until used or rented.

Vistana (Sheraton / Westin) Context

Vistana utilizes a unit called StarOptions. Value sits between 2.5¢ and 5.5¢ per point. Typical allocations are large (30,000–200,000). A 115,000-point allocation rents for ~$2,875–$6,325/year. The system covers 20+ resorts and is owned by Marriott Vacations Worldwide following a 2018 acquisition.

Resale Buying Network and Exit Strategies

When planning an exit or a resale purchase, you must know which programs allow points buying for exit purposes. Timeshare Rental Pros (TRP) buys from exactly these 7 programs:

  • Club Wyndham
  • WorldMark
  • Hilton Grand Vacations
  • Bluegreen
  • Disney Vacation Club
  • Marriott Vacation Club
  • Diamond Resorts

Do not assume all brands are eligible. TRP does not buy Westgate or Vistana/Sheraton/Westin points. If you hold a contract in those specific programs, your exit options rely on different channels than the standard resale network used for the other seven major brands. This is a critical distinction for owners considering selling their interest.

Calculating Your Specific Value

Numbers on a table give you the market average. They do not tell you what your specific contract is worth. A DVC point in a high-demand year like 2030 might rent higher than one in 2027 due to availability constraints. Similarly, Marriott points might fluctuate based on seasonality at home resorts like Maui or Orlando.

Use our [Timeshare Value Calculator] (/calculator) to input your specific points and usage needs. This helps you see if the resale price matches current rental potential. If you are looking to exit a contract, verify first if your brand is part of the active buying network before listing with an agent who promises instant payouts.

The best value for money depends on how many points you actually need for your trips. DVC wins on per-point efficiency; Wyndham wins on total resort variety for a lower entry cost per point (though higher absolute price). Decide based on usage, not just the dollar figure attached to a single unit of currency.
