  • Fractional Ownership in the UK - Can it Work? - Fractional ownership is an established concept in the USA and Caribbean, but can it work in the less than ideal climate of the UK? This article was triggered by reading a report that was very negative about fractional ownership in the UK. What's the Problem? The suggested problem seems to be that fractional ownership is only suitable for resorts with year-round warm climates or places with a very long season for other reasons, e.g. Summer/Winter use of an apartment in the French alps or a city-break location. This long season would mean less pressure on the time allocation and allow smaller fractions to be practical. Of course it does help if the season is longer, but I think that what is really being said is that fractional ownership in the UK (outside of London) is not really suitable for developers looking to make huge profits.

  • What is Fractional Ownership - Many people ask "what is fractional ownership?" and the closely related question "Is it timeshare? In this article I will attempt to answer these questions. This article is concerned exclusively with the fractional ownership of leisure/luxury assets. However most of the principles would apply equally to the fractional ownership of a practical item (e.g. for business). Definition of Fractional Ownership In its broadest definition, fractional ownership is any arrangement where a group of people (numbering from 2 to 10 or more) share the ownership of an asset and also share certain rights to use the asset.
