Do I lose any privileges if I buy a resales listing I found on Ownertrades.com?
If you buy a resale property from a Broker / Real Estate agent or directly from an owner, you are not eligible to participate in the Marriott Points program. Of course, you usually are able to make the purchase for less $$ than if you purchase from Marriott, so that compensates for not getting the Points program. If you purchase a resale unit, but purchase it thru a Marriott saleperson, then you get all the privileges of ownership, including points. There may be some resales units listed on Ownertrades.com that indicate the Points program is available. That means the Owner is offering to sell it via a Marriott salesperson.
