My first thought was that a Time Share would be (as Jesse Friedman
suggested) a type of Offer (a way to sell something), while the Real Estate
itself would be a type of ProductOrService (a thing that can be sold,
rented, let out, etc). So you would Offer that House on the Beach via Time
Share.

 

So... in your thinking... we probably want or need an Offer Type property
under http://schema.org/Offer

 

to account for TimeShare | ForSale | Rental, etc ?

 

If YES, then we would additionally need another property called "price
measurement" or "priceRate" to note that:

 

<span itemprop="price">$1500.00</span> 

 

<span itemprop="priceRate">monthly</span>
