Pacaso vs. timeshare: What sets us apart
If you’re looking for a second home that offers luxury, convenience and flexibility, you might be tempted by the idea of a A But before you sign up for a timeshare contract, you should consider a better alternative: Pacaso. We enable you to co-own a stunning second home with a small group of like-minded people.  Unlike a What is Pacaso? The Pacaso second home ownership model is a revolutionary way to buy, own and sell a luxury second home in a world-class vacation destination. We simplify the Pacaso owners enjoy all the benefits of second home ownership without the hassle of maintenance, scheduling or resale. All of our homes are professionally designed, fully furnished and impeccably maintained, offering a consistent and luxurious experience every time.  Buyers can also take advantage of competitive What is a timeshare? A The time increments may be fixed or flexible, and may be based on weeks, months or a point system. Timeshares are often sold through high-pressure sales meetings that claim to offer low prices and long-term benefits.  Timeshare companies can provide you with a predictable vacation setting in a professionally managed resort. Still, they have some drawbacks, such as lack of flexibility, difficulty in reselling and risk of scams. Pacaso vs. timeshare: 5 key differences If you are looking for a way to own a luxury vacation home in a desirable location, you might be wondering about the differences between a Both options allow you to share the cost and use of a vacation property with others, but there are some key distinctions that make Pacaso a better alternative for many buyers. Here are five reasons to consider LLC co-ownership of a second home.  1. Each Pacaso listing is a one-of-a-kind second home Not just any home can be a Pacaso home. We seek out the best homes in the best locations — each one is different, and all have plenty of wow factor. Then our professional interior designers A Pacaso home is a luxurious home away from home. A timeshare is almost always a unit at a hotel or condo complex. Think cookie-cutter floor plans and typical hotel-style furniture.  2. A small group of co-owners enjoy the home Because we limit the number of shares per home to eight, you and (at most) seven other owners will have access to the home. (Only one owner will occupy the home at a time, of course.)  Plus, Pacaso homes are reserved for the exclusive use of owners and their guests — rentals aren’t permitted. We vet potential owners who agree to a common sense code of conduct to ensure they will treat the home as their own — because it is! Plus, you won’t feel like you’re “sharing” your home. We conduct a thorough inspection and cleaning after each stay so your home is pristine when you arrive.   A 3. You own real estate, not time One of the most significant differences between a timeshare vs. vacation home is what you actually own. With Pacaso, your share is real property, not simply a block of time — you own a real estate asset. And because it’s a real estate asset, its value will move with the market, meaning any realized equity is yours.  When you purchase a timeshare, you typically own the right to use the property for a period of time, not the property itself. That’s why you can’t usually get a conventional home loan to purchase a timeshare — there’s no “home” as collateral, only time.  Financing is offered through the timeshare company, often at a high interest rate, and some buyers secure funds through a personal loan or home equity loan. Since even the best timeshare property is not a real estate asset, you are likely to see the value depreciate, much like a new car begins to lose value once it’s driven off the lot. 4. You can use your home year-round Pacaso’s When you purchase a timeshare, you’re often locked into a fixed week, year after year. You may have a “floating week” option, but your choices are still restricted to a range of dates. With either option, you can only check in on certain days, and you typically must book a full week.  There are exchanges and point-based systems that allow you to choose different resorts, but you’ll often pay extra for more desirable locations, and availability can be limited. If you have a fixed-week schedule, you may never get a particular holiday week if another owner already locked it in.  5. The resale process is streamlined We think you’ll love your Because our homes are thoughtfully selected and located in some of the most desirable second home markets, we’ve experienced strong buyer demand for Pacaso shares.  On the other hand, selling a timeshare can be extremely difficult. There’s an entire industry of timeshare exit companies that will help you offload your timeshare for a fee — and, unfortunately, many of them have been known to take advantage of sellers.  Pick the right choice for you Keeping your second home goals in mind while comparing Pacaso vs. timeshare opportunities can help you find exactly what you’re looking for.

Tenancy in common: What it is and how it works
If you’re exploring different Since this type of So, what is tenancy in common, and how can it help you purchase a primary or second home? Continue reading to learn about the pros and cons of this ownership model, plus the difference between joint tenancy and tenancy in common. What is tenancy in common (TIC)? Tenancy in common is a home ownership model that allows multiple individuals to own a single property, each holding a distinct share. Unlike joint tenancy, these shares don't have to be equal, making TIC a flexible option for diverse groups of varying income levels or investments. TIC agreements are usually very detailed, addressing various potential conflicts through comprehensive operating agreements. These documents outline financial obligations, maintenance responsibilities and exit strategies. In 2025, as housing costs rise, TIC is increasingly seen as an attractive path to homeownership since it enables individuals to pool resources. Each owner can independently sell, mortgage or will their portion of the property, offering significant autonomy. How a tenancy in common agreement works A tenancy in common agreement is a form of Here is how home buyers can become co-owners within a tenancy in common: It’s important to note that no one person or company is in charge of a TIC. This means that, for example, while one owner might have a 50% interest share in the property, they have the same usage rights as a tenant with 10% ownership.  How to finance a tenancy in common Although a tenancy in common is a form of fractional ownership, you still have access to traditional funding opportunities like loans.  When it comes to financing a tenancy in common, you have two options: Simply put, the main attraction of Tenancy in common property taxes In general, a tax jurisdiction may require property taxes to be paid as a unit. This may be because If your TIC receives a single tax bill, your tenancy in common agreement will determine how the property taxes are paid. Pros and cons of tenancy in common real estate As an arrangement that enables multiple individuals to share ownership of a single property, TIC brings a set of distinct advantages and challenges that prospective homeowners must consider. Understanding these key factors is essential in making informed decisions and forging successful co-ownership partnerships. Let’s dive into the pros and cons of tenancy in common. Tenancy in common advantages Here are the core advantages of opting for a tenancy in common agreement: Tenancy in common disadvantages Although a TIC agreement can be an easily customizable and flexible ownership arrangement, it also has its drawbacks, such as: Tenancy in common example  Now that you understand the basics of how tenancy in common operates, let’s see how this ownership model plays out in a real-world example.  In this scenario, three families enter into a tenancy in common agreement: The story above illustrates how Tenancy in common vs. joint tenancy  The major difference between Let’s break down both co-ownership types: Comparing the different types of tenancy  To understand property ownership, you have to differentiate between the various types of tenancies — and there's more than just the two we've mentioned already.  Ultimately, the type of tenancy you should choose should be determined by your personal situation, legal status (like whether you're looking to buy as an individual or as a How to dissolve a tenancy in common agreement Dissolving a tenancy in common is relatively straightforward and easy to accomplish, assuming all co-owners wish to end the agreement.  Additionally, seeking legal advice, drafting a formal dissolution agreement and adhering to the legal procedures required in your jurisdiction are crucial steps in the dissolution process.  If the co-ownership aspect of a tenancy in common appeals to your real estate goals and you’d like to skip property management altogether, Pacaso offers

What is a property manager and what do they do?
A Understanding property managers Owners typically hire a property manager to help them achieve their goal of building a steady investment income while reducing the burden of daily property operations.  Property managers specialize in all operational aspects of ownership Every property will come with unique needs, and the property manager’s responsibilities are outlined in their contract with the owner. Owners with multiple properties might seek out a property management firm to coordinate all operations and oversight.  Because property management involves adherence to housing laws, some states require a license to manage a property, either as a real estate broker or as a licensed property manager. Property managers enforce federal, state and local requirements dealing with screening tenants, evictions, lease terminations and handling deposits.  Takeaways Property managers share these characteristics: In more detail: There are three primary kinds of property managers: commercial, multi-family and single-family. Some property management firms work with a blend of property types. Commercial property management focuses on office buildings and industrial spaces.  Multi-family property managers specialize in spaces with many units, most commonly apartment complexes. Similarly, single-family property managers work in residential housing, but they focus on renting out single-family homes versus large-scale complexes.  Every property has different needs, but generally, property managers: No, property managers do not own the property they manage. Property owners outsource the daily operations to a property manager because they specialize in finding new tenants and know the legal specifics of leasing.  Most property managers work for a property management firm that coordinates the needs of several individual properties. In turn, the property firm works directly for the property owner.  Pacaso's in-house team of experienced, local property managers to handle the day-to-day needs of each home, including: With Pacaso, you own the home, and we manage everything — it’s that simple.

What is fractional ownership in real estate? (+ pros and cons)
What is fractional ownership? For instance, if you invest in a fractional ownership of a holiday home, you're essentially purchasing the right to use that property for a predetermined number of days or weeks annually. This approach allows individuals to enjoy the benefits of owning premium assets without bearing the full financial burden alone. In this post, you’ll learn what fractional ownership is, explore its pros and cons, and get answers to some frequently asked questions. Understanding fractional ownership You’ll typically find fractional ownership for real estate like vacation homes. However, fractional ownership can also come into play for art, stocks and fashion items. When owners purchase real estate assets with fractional ownership, they are issued deeds representing their fraction of the property.  Fractional ownership is a great way to buy and own a property or another asset without purchasing it alone. It means all owners of an asset have divided percentage shares of a specific item or property. While families sometimes share ownership, fractional property owners can be unrelated. Types of fractional ownership There are two main types of fractional ownership structures:  Fractional ownership through an entity Some properties split ownership by using a structural entity like an Tenancy in common (TIC) means each tenant holds an individual deed for a fraction or percentage of a commercial or residential property. However, no one person or company is in charge. With a TIC, individuals can own different percentages of the property but share it equally. Some TIC agreements are self-managed. Fractional ownership vs. timeshares Fractional ownership Timeshares may be shared by as many as 52 owners (one person or group for every week of the year) while fractionally owned properties can have as few as two owners.  Fractional ownership advantages There are several advantages to owning a property through fractional ownership. Expanded opportunity to own Fractional investments allow you to own a portion of Deeded ownership Unlike a timeshare, fractional ownership gives you a deed to a fraction of the property itself (sometimes called a fractional interest). This means that the value of your share in the property increases or decreases in line with the property's real estate value. Any increase in value is divided equally and becomes gained equity for all fractional owners. Usage rights Unlike short-term Shared upkeep and maintenance costs Using the fractional ownership model, you're also responsible for only a fraction of the upkeep and Lower upkeep and maintenance burden Most fractional ownership agreements include provisions for long-term property management, with owners deciding how to handle any issues. Maintenance of When you have fractional vacation home ownership through an entity, it will include preventative and routine maintenance, cleaning and property management in its Potential rental income A fractionally owned property can be rented out as a long- or Fractional ownership cons Though fractional ownership has its advantages, there are a few drawbacks to consider as well. Fewer financing options Fewer banks provide mortgages for those looking to buy properties fractionally. You may need to shop around or consider other ways to finance your fractional ownership property, like special Less flexibility and freedom All decisions about maintenance, repairs and decor must go through all ownership partners, which Some fractional ownership clubs also require you to maintain an agreement with the club or property management company associated with the home, with no option for self-management or management outside the company.  Limited travel opportunities While it's not unheard of to own shares in multiple fractional ownership properties in different locations, investing in fractional ownership also means investing in the location you’re going to revisit. Of course, you can still vacation elsewhere, but it's something to factor into your travel plans and budget.  An alternative to fractional ownership Where fractional ownership falls short, Pacaso steps up. Pacaso's professionally managed LLC co-ownership model gives you all the perks and lower co-ownership costs with key differences that set it apart from fractional ownership resort clubs.  Unlike fractional ownership resorts, Pacaso offers LLC

What is considered a second home for tax purposes?
A property is viewed as a Understanding tax laws and your second home A second home is a personal residence for part of the year. The rest of the time it may remain vacant or be rented out to guests. Here are other common characteristics of second homes: Vacation homes are typically located in Buyers may purchase a second home for retirement or to vacation in another part of the country. It’s not required for a first home to be paid off before buying a second home, however.  Reserving your second home for family-only use rather than using it as a rental property keeps things simpler at tax time. Like a primary residence, you can deduct a portion of your second home’s mortgage interest and property taxes. Tax benefits of second homes Second homes come with a host of possible tax benefits from the IRS, but they depend on two key factors: whether you’re living in your second home more than you rent it out and how much money you’re taking in income from tenants. Let’s dive into the specifics: If you rent out your home for less than 15 days a year, it’s considered a personal residence and you’re eligible for itemized deductions like any other homeowner. You can deduct mortgage interest up to $750,000 on principal for properties purchased after 2020. Rental income (under the 15-day limit) is also exempt, so you don’t need to report earnings to the IRS.  Staying 14 days per year means your second home is considered a residence. In addition to deducting mortgage interest, you may also be able to write off interest paid on a home equity loan. To qualify, you’ll need to have a mortgage on your second home and use the home equity loan for property improvements. You can Takeaways In more detail: If you change your mind about your property and want to rent out your second home, you can change your occupancy status. It’s best to do this after you’ve owned property for at least a year, and you’ll need to report any new rental income to the IRS.  Selling a second home is a different experience than selling your primary residence. Your first home earns you capital gains exclusions: Single tax filers can exclude $250,000, and couples filing jointly can exclude up to $500,000 on their return. That isn’t the case for second homes. The IRS sees secondary properties as investments, meaning that unless you’ve lived there for an extended period of time before the sale, you may pay up to 20% in capital gains tax. Yes, because your Pacaso is a single-family residence that you own. By buying a share in a property-specific LLC, you

How to finance fractional ownership
Fractional ownership allows multiple individuals to purchase property together and share usage rights. It’s a common practice among people buying big-ticket items like second homes, Because each party is only responsible for a portion of the full purchase price, Unlike timeshares, fractional ownership provides you with the benefits of actual real estate property ownership. If the value of your second home appreciates over time, your share appreciates proportionately to your ownership stake. Plus, you'll share expenses like repairs, insurance and taxes with the other owners.   While a lot of factors go into deciding if fractional ownership is right for you, one of the most important considerations is how you’ll pay for it. Here are a few options for financing fractional ownership of a second home.  Types of fractional ownership financing Cash Of course, paying for your second home in cash is the most straightforward option — there's no financing application, no contingencies and, best of all, no monthly mortgage payment or interest charges. However, not all buyers have the amount of cash required to purchase shares in a property without Mortgage While not every bank or credit union offers mortgages for fractional ownership purchases, an increasing number do. It’s important to note that qualifying for a second home mortgage can be more difficult than qualifying for your first mortgage. You may need a higher credit score, longer employment history and a down payment of 20% or higher.  If you’re buying in a new vacation community, the property developer may offer financing through a banking partner as a way to encourage purchases.  Home equity  If you already own a home and have a significant amount of equity, you may be able to tap into it to purchase your second home.
