How to rent out your Hilton Grand Vacations points
Two paths to rental income from your Hilton GV hgv points: self-rent for maximum upside, or use a buyer service for zero-work cash. We cover both.
Option 1
Self-rent on Airbnb or Vrbo (highest upside)
The classic move: book a peak-season week at a desirable Hilton GV resort using your annual hgv points, then list the reservation on Airbnb or Vrbo at market rate. Typical Hilton GV owners with 26,000 points net $260–$650 per year via self-rental.
The work involved:
- Book the peak week the moment your booking window opens (13 months out for most Hilton GV contracts) — peak weeks sell out within hours
- Take quality photos of the unit (or use property-listing photos with permission)
- Write the Airbnb/Vrbo listing, set pricing, respond to inquiries
- Manage check-in instructions and the reservation itself
- Handle the no-show or cancellation risk if anything goes sideways
Plan on 10–20 hours of work over the rental cycle. The upside: you keep more of the per-point spread.
Option 2
Sell points to a buyer service (zero work)
Services like Timeshare Rental Pros pay you cash upfront for your annual hgv points — typically within 48 hours of accepting the offer. They handle the Airbnb/Vrbo booking, listing, and all rental management. You take a slightly lower per-point payout in exchange for zero work and guaranteed payment.
HGVC points trade at $0.01–$0.025 on the secondary rental market. A typical 7,000-point allocation might rent for $700–$1,750 per year. Vegas and Orlando resorts dominate the HGVC portfolio, both of which have strong year-round rental demand on Airbnb and Vrbo. Self-renting peak weeks at the Las Vegas Strip resorts captures the highest value. Buyer services like Timeshare Rental Pros pay $0.008–$0.018 per point upfront — useful for owners who want guaranteed cash without managing rental bookings.
