High-end second houses are becoming more accessible to those who aren't as rich thanks to a new tech-powered co-ownership concept.
It's difficult to resist the allure of the vacation house. The idea of owning a special location in a different country, a house your family can visit frequently, become friends with, and establish roots in, has a certain allure, says Joe Ricotta. Nevertheless, for many individuals, the cost is difficult to justify: why purchase a home if you only intend to be there a few weeks out of the year? In the past, timeshare was a solution to the issue of vacant vacation houses for a large portion of the year, but the concept has a poor image for valid reasons. A problematic system that gives neither flexibility nor return on investment, timeshare properties are frequently at the lower end of the market.

Co-ownership enables prospective second homeowners to purchase an eighth to a half of a property, which they can use for an equivalent number of days each year, as opposed to the rigid timeshare model, asserts Joe Ricotta, which requires customers to purchase the right to visit an apartment during a specific time of year without owning a stake in the property.

This has the effect of making having a second home more effective and responsible while also allowing a new set of would-be second house owners access to the upper end of the market. The usual starting price for an eighth stake is roughly £400,000, making opulent four- or five-bedroom houses in sought-after locations accessible to folks who are not super-rich. According to a study by EBP, Co-ownership relieves pressure on the mid-tier market by channeling owners to the top of the market, making more housing stock accessible for first-time home purchasers.

Its ground-breaking SmartStay system, which guarantees access to the property during busy periods of the year like Christmas, Easter, and the summer holidays is fairly distributed among the shareholders, has made co-ownership models conceivable. According to Joe Ricotta SmartStay is an intelligent system that learns your preferences and adjusts in accordance with them. It is based on a 24-month booking window. Due to the software's built-in "Sun & Ski Promise," everyone has access to the property throughout the peak season and it can be customized to fit a particular location, taking into consideration national holidays like Thanksgiving.

The initial collection of residences was specifically targeted at the American market and included opulent villas in Baja California for large family vacations, beachfront homes in Florida, and dramatic ski lodges in Wyoming. As a result of their success in the US, the business is currently growing throughout Europe. Early homes included a four-bedroom property in Chelsea, London, and a modernist-style estate in the hills above Marbella. Although Allison says there is plenty of room for growth, the company is currently primarily focused on expanding its presence in the core markets where it already operates. "We are certainly interested in expanding into top vacation home destinations across Europe when the time is right," Joe Ricotta says.
