Financing Your Dream: A Guide to Co-Ownership
Co-ownership, also called fractional ownership, offers a practical solution for those looking to share the joys of owning a luxury vacation home without bearing the full financial burden alone. This model, especially popular for high-value assets such as vacation homes, boats, and planes, allows multiple individuals to co-own a property and share its usage rights.
The Appeal of Fractional Ownership
Fractional ownership in New Orleans’ iconic French Quarter through Slyce Properties makes the dream of owning a luxurious vacation home more accessible. By sharing the purchase price and associated expenses with other owners, you can enjoy a high-end property without the steep costs. Unlike timeshares, fractional ownership provides actual real estate ownership, allowing your investment to appreciate over time.
Financing Options for Fractional Ownership
While deciding to purchase a share in a Slyce Properties residence, one of the primary considerations is financing. Here are several viable options to help you make this dream a reality:
1. Cash Payment
• The most straightforward method, paying in cash eliminates the need for financing applications, contingencies, or monthly mortgage payments. However, this option may not be feasible for everyone.
2. Mortgage
• Some banks and credit unions now offer mortgages for fractional ownership purchases, though qualifying can be more stringent than for primary home mortgages. Expect to need a higher credit score, a longer employment history, and a down payment, often around 20%.
3. Home Equity
• If you own a home and have built up significant equity, you can leverage it to finance your fractional ownership share through:
• Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC): A revolving credit line secured by your home’s equity, typically offering lower interest rates than other loan types.
• Home Equity Loan: A lump-sum loan with a fixed repayment schedule, secured by your home’s equity.
• Cash-Out Refinance: Refinancing your home for more than you owe, withdrawing the difference in cash. This option is best when current interest rates are favorable compared to your existing mortgage rate.
4. Special Financing through Slyce Properties
• Slyce Properties offers special financing options in partnership with banking institutions, allowing you to finance up to 70% of your purchase price with below market rates and a simplified application process. Contact us for more details.
