Having a second home is a very attractive option for many families, as it guarantees them a place to rest and disconnect from everyday life. In addition to providing a space for disconnection, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, second homes in co-ownership revitalize communities, bringing life and economic dynamism to rural or tourist areas.

It seems that we are regaining normality against the pandemic, we are also in the middle of spring, and telework is part of the new labor market reality. All of these factors contribute to the enjoyment and the relocation out of the major cities.

People are willing to combine their stays in their usual residence with the disconnection and change of scenery that involves moving to a house in the countryside or on the seashore. 

In Spain, we have already seen during this Easter how thousands of individuals and families took the opportunity to move throughout our geography. Many of these shifts have been made to homes listed as non-principal, which, according to data from the Spanish Government in 2019, are around 6.5 million properties.

But the benefits of second homes in these spots, surrounded by peace, tranquility, and nature, go far beyond the enjoyment of their owners. Due to their location away from urban centers, these properties are empty most of the year. As a result, the towns and communities in the areas where these assets are located are only revitalized during the vacation or holiday season.

This has an obvious impact on the local economy. Beyond having minimal maintenance and security services, the areas in which they are located have very little commercial activity, offering fewer opportunities and security to their neighbors.

On the other hand, facilitating access to a second home throughout the year, with flexible payments and complete maintenance service, would stimulate the economy and society of many areas outside the main urban centers, providing the life and activity they need for their survival. Welcome to the benefits of fractional ownership.

To achieve this goal, we need to consider a change of mindset related to the acquisition of real estate assets and take into account that there are other much more profitable and affordable ways to enjoy second homeownership.

For example, through Secconda homeowners can enjoy a co-ownership model for premium homes, with a layer of services and user experience that will make you enjoy your home to the fullest. For asimilar amount to what it would cost a single-family apartment in a holiday area, you can acquire shares in a company that owns a high-end property in a stunning location. Without the need to make a large financial outlay, we offer co-owners a streamlined process to enjoy a luxury home, paying only for the days they need to use it.

In sum, this is a much smarter way to enjoy a second home, without having to assume on your own maintenance & cleaning costs, taxes, set up of the home...etc.

With major flexibility, and with the ability to reach up to 8 co-owners or families per property, we could ensure more activity and enjoyment all year round in those vacation areas. Benefits of co-ownership impact, in sum, both the co-owners (and their family and friends) and the communities where the homes are located.
