Fractional Ownership
Fractional Ownership started in the aviation industry during the 1960’s and has rapidly spread as a concept to include high value luxury items most of us would only dream of owning. Fractional Ownership schemes for properties are popular in the United States, Caribbean and increasingly South Africa. Fractional Ownership is a rapid growth market particularly in the UK and offers a successful alternative to complete investment.
Unlike “Timeshare” Fractional Ownership is very different in its structure. Typical timeshares allow the purchaser to use a block of time for a limited number of years with no eventual return on investment. Timeshare schemes give the participants little or no control over maintenance or service charges and the developer or owner will always benefit from the asset value of the property.
Fractional ownership is based on the same rights as outright ownership on a freehold basis for as long as you wish. Unlike timeshare, your share of a luxury property in an exclusive location will benefit from capital growth and additional rental income, if desired.
