The Owners Exchange Program 

The SkyRun Owners Exchange program allows two owners of properties both under contract with SkyRun to exchange their properties at little or no cost except for cleaning.  Owners can search the SkyRun Owners Exchange for other owners who are interested in properties similar to theirs, or for a property you would want to exchange for. Owners can also create their own offers on this website for what they are willing to exchange, or for what they would like to get in exchange so other owners can search and find your exchange offer. This Owners Exchange website facilitates getting two owners together much like a bulletin board or 'craigslist.com' does.

How can I post and offer or request? 

Anyone can view the offers and requests on the website without logging in (so DO NOT INCLUDE private information on your post).  In order to post a new request or offer, you DO need to be signed on.  Your normal SkyRun owenrs userid and password can be used, or you can request a new userid by registering as a new user for just this website by clicking 'register' to the left.

How does the Owners Exchange work?

When exchanging properties, the standard of exchange is the current price on the SkyRun website.  When you and another owner agree on dates for the exchange, you look up the current pricing (not including tax or booking fees or any other add-ons) for both units, and the owner of the more expensive property will get a reservation for the net difference (to be treated as a normal SkyRun reservation for a much reduced amount)

  For example:

• Owner A has a 1 bedroom that rents for $1,000 for 4 nights from 1/5 - 1/9
• Owner B has a 3 bedroom that rentsfor $2,000 for 7 nights from 2/15- 2/22
• Owner A and B find each other on the SkyRun Owners Exchange, and work out an exchange by email or the phone where owner B would pay nothing to use Owner A's property, and Owner A would pay the price difference of $1,000 plus applicable fees and taxes to use Owner B's property that normally rents ofr $2,000 for the dates being used.

How to complete the exchange:

• Owner A would put in an 'ownerfriend' reservation on behalf of Owner B for Owner A's 1br condo for 1/5 - 1/9.  there is no charge except for cleaning (same as any owner friend reservation).  Owner A could ask that Owner B pay for the cleaning also.  This can be done by check between owners, or SkyRun can charge the clean to Owner B's accountand credit owner A's account for the clean.
  
• Owner B would put in an 'ownerexch' reservation for his property from 2/15-2/22 and type the price difference and the condo being exchanged for.  The price difference MUST EQUAL the price difference on the SkyRun website at the time of the reservation.
  
• SkyRun will validate the proper amount and contact owner A and get payment information such as a credit card to cover the cost.
  
• The rental at the reduced amount will be treated like a normal SkyRun reservation and the reduced rental amount will be taxed, charged a booking fee, and split with Owner B according to Owner B's contract.

Notes

• BOTH SIDES of the exchange must be reserved at the same time.  So you cannot 'bank' a future exchange by using a property now in exchange for a future rental to be defined.
• You CAN arrange and exchange with a property in the same resort as your property (for friends and family).

Questions

Any questions can be posted on the Owners Exchange Forum so that other owners can see the answers.  Private quesitons should be addressed to barry@skyrun.com.
