Darrell(and Stephanie), Having "researched", years ago, the merits of our embarking into fractional shares in French r.e., your current article affirms that a judicious "must" in this arena may definitely be in the best interest of potential buyers. Later regrets can be(financially) costly. Thanks for another, updated insight(s). Bernard G.

Almost everyone recognizes that owning a vacation property fractionally is a good idea. But that recognition is generally not enough to generate a signed contract and a closed sale. For sales prospects to really assess their level of interest, they need specifics. The fractional ownership sale least likely to close is the one where a group of prospective co-owners gets together and then tries to figure out how to structure their co-ownership. If the main elements of the offering are not fully developed, it is impossible to distinguish real buyers from those who are simply intrigued by the concept. As a consequence, you will end up wasting time on prospects that will not close, and paying insufficient attention to others because you mistakenly believe you have more interest than you really do.
