Fractional ownership (joint ownership)


Fractional ownership (joint ownership, shared ownership, co-ownership, group ownership, multiple ownership, interval ownership, asset sharing, partial ownership or part ownership, to name but some of its many terms!) is a well established idea.

For years groups of families and friends have clubbed together to buy properties, boats, cars, horses and other valuable assets. Now some real estate developers, boat manufacturers and brokers, aircraft manufactureres, and a few specialist brokers are offering to put strangers together to buy assets in syndicates.

Below are links to extensive guidance about creating the perfect sharing arrangement. The most important aspects usually apply to any asset; so although the example might be a different asset type to the one you are considering sharing, the principles may well be relevant to you. Templates for sharing property, aircraft, horses and boats are already available.

So if you can't afford or justify the expense of owning the property, boat, car, necklace etc outright, and/or the large fractional schemes and syndicates don't really fit your requirements, and/or you haven't got any appropriate family or friends to buy with, then it may have been hard to make fractional ownership work for you. Now yours2share allows you to find like-minded people with whom you can share exactly what you want, how you want and where you want.

The information on this page, and the whole of the yours2share website, is based upon the laws in England and Wales only. However the law in Scotland and Northern Ireland is similar.

The laws on joint ownership and renting, both of property (buildings and land) and possessions (chattels or personal property) vary from country to country. You need to get independent professional advice on both legal and financial aspects specific to that country. Make sure that there is a legal and financial framework for the sharing agreement you are contemplating that protects you properly.

For professional advice about fractional ownership property in the UK or overseas, yours2share has arranged a special price with industry leader Best Group for an initial consultation. For further information, please contact us.
