The New Era of Second Home Ownership in the Heart of New Orleans
The Old Versus The New: A Financial Perspective
Traditionally, owning a second home in sought-after locations like the French Quarter has been a privilege accompanied by significant financial burdens. Consider the conventional route: a charming 1-bedroom unit could set you back $650,000. After the $130,000 down payment, you're looking at hefty monthly expenses (including mortgage, condo fees, taxes, insurance, and maintenance) of approximately $5,700—all for a residence that, on average, sees about 45-60 days of use per year.
Enter the innovative model of co-ownership by Slyce Properties. Picture the same 1-bedroom condo, now transformed into an accessible dream through a smart ownership structure. With a $125,000 purchase price for a 1/6 share and no additional monthly burdens of mortgage expense, the shared all-in monthly cost of embracing the New Orleans lifestyle plummets to around $570 per month—a mere 10% of the traditional ownership costs. This model includes all necessary expenses, such as real estate taxes, insurance, condo dues, replacement reserves, and maintenance, wrapped into one. The only additional cost? A market-rate cleaning fee to ensure your home is pristine for your next visit.
Why Co-Ownership Makes Sense
The average second home owner utilizes their property for approximately 45 days a year, yet shoulders the financial load of 365 days. Slyce Properties challenges this inefficiency through co-ownership, dividing all costs among six owners. This structure aligns perfectly with usage patterns, ensuring that owners pay only for the time they truly need, without compromising on the luxury and convenience of a second home in New Orleans.
