Fractional real estate ownership developed in the 1990s as a spin-off of the fractional ownership of private jets. The concept is not derivative of vacation clubs or timeshares as some assume. It simply means investors own a specific part of a deeded development in partnership with a group of other owners. Fractional ownership is a sensible option to the formidable cost of a 24/7 vacation home - not just in the saving of money, but in the wiser use of it.
For example, by owning part of a vacation home in more than one location rather than a full vacation home in a single location, investors are purchasing and thus enjoying more than one prime destination. The money saved is applied against other lifestyle benefits. Fractional real estate has proven to enhance in value in the same way as any other form of real estate. |
