FRACTIONAL OWNERSHIP - PROVIDING THE LUXURY OF
A SECOND HOME AT A FRACTION OF THE COST!
Q. HOW IS FRACTIONAL REAL ESTATE OWNERSHIP DIFFERENT THAN TIMESHARE
OWNERSHIP?
A. Fractional real estate ownership differs from a timeshare in that the owner actually owns a
percentage of the property and the properties are generally larger and more luxurious than
timeshare accommodations. Deeded fractional real estate ownership is evaluated as an
alternative real estate purchase by the educated investor who enjoys that specific location and
would like to take advantage of the flexibility of using the residence as their needs dictate.
Letting family or business associates enjoy the additional time or take advantage of the rental
management option are attractive alternatives to the owner’s personal use of the property.
Q. ARE THERE ANY DIFFERENCES BETWEEN FRACTIONAL OWNERS AND WHOLE
PROPERTY OWNERS?
A. No; other than the fractional owner has specific deeded ownership use rights during
rotating or specific times throughout the year. Each owner has access to every feature and
amenity the property has to offer when they are in the residence property. Best of all, real
estate equity value of the investment is yours. As the property increases in value, your
percentage of equity increase belongs to you.
Q. CAN FRACTIONAL OWNERS RENT THEIR UNUSED TIME?
A. Yes, fractional owners can be rented through a property management company or on their
own. Additionally, their unused allocated ownership time can be gifted to friends, family or
business associates.
Q. HOW DO FRACTIONAL OWNERS RESERVE THE USE OF THEIR RESIDENCE?
A. To avoid the uncertainty of first-come, first serve reservation process, owners are typically
provided with a calendar detailing their reserved allocated use for several years in advance, or
the time periods can be specified in the contract at time of purchase.

Q. WHAT IS FRACTIONAL OWNERSHIP?
A. Fractional real estate ownership is designed so that each owner is deeded an interest (fraction)
of a specific property (vacation house or condo). They then pay a monthly or annual maintenance
fee and annual real estate taxes based on their ownership. All other related concerns of vacation
or second home ownership including maintenance and furnishings replacement may or may not
be left to the property management company – the choice is yours.
Q. WHY SHOULD I PURCHASE FRACTIONAL REAL ESTATE OWNERSHIP?
A. Most people recognize that spending more than a couple of months a year at their vacation
home is impractical. With fractional ownership you get the quality and level of luxury you want and
only pay for the time you actually plan to visit the property. You never have to be concerned with
finding renters for the months you’re not there or worry about maintenance.
