I am a current owner with Hilton. I am about to buy another deed from a family owner who needs to get out of it. I was told by HIlton that if I buy resale that I will not be able to qualify for the perks they offer. HHPoints, IRC etc... However, that if I ask current owner to add me to his warranty deed first, then call them to combine both properties into one for me, then doing another deed change to remove the previous owner.

Does this process make sense? They tell me is only about $100 fee each time we change the deed and it would be something they would do. Is this true?

What is the normal process to transfer ownership when I buy a resale property?
