5 Simple Steps to Turn Your Timeshare into Extra Income in 2025

Owning a timeshare can be a rewarding experience, but there are times when you might not be able to use it. Instead of letting it sit idle, why not turn it into a source of extra income? With KOALA, listing and renting your timeshare is straightforward and secure. Here’s how you can get started:

- Dec 31, 2024

 

  1. Evaluate Your Timeshare’s Rental Value

    Begin by researching similar properties on KOALA – and other websites – to understand current rental rates. Factors such as location, resort amenities, and seasonal demand play a significant role in determining value. This insight will help you set a competitive and attractive price for potential renters.

  2. Select a Popular Timeshare Reservation to List

    A key to getting booked is to ensure you have something someone else wants. While pricing competitively can make shoulder season inventory much more appealing, nothing beats having a high-demand stay secured and ready-to-go. This usually requires either booking far in advance, or just being lucky enough to grab a cancelled reservation at the right time. If you’re not sure which dates and resorts are the most popular, you can always assume holiday weeks (Spring Break, Presidents’ Week, Christmas or New Year’s etc) should perform well–assuming you follow step 3. Also, we’ve expanded that research for you. Check out our VIP Memberships and Suggested Listings which offers suggested dates and pricing on high-demand inventory across several of the most popular vacation club brands.

  3. Determine a Competitive Rental Price

    Setting the right price is crucial. KOALA provides tools and a Comprehensive Pricing Guide to assist you in pricing your timeshare appropriately. Offer lower rates during off-peak seasons or discounts if you want to rent it quickly.

  4. Respond Quickly to Potential Renters

    Earlier this year, KOALA announced Direct Messaging. Now, vacationers can message you directly about your listing. Prompt, informative and courteous responses to inquiries can increase booking chances. While our resort pages share a plethora of information, be ready to answer questions about the property, resort facilities, nearby attractions, and any other details that might assist renters in making an informed decision.

  5. Enjoy the Benefits of Additional Income

    Unlike other timeshare rentals websites, every transaction on KOALA is Verified & Protected for free. We verify every listing, princess payments securely and provide customer support from booking to check-in. Earning extra income with minimal effort, maximizing the value of your timeshare ownership.
