A couple meets with a real estate agent at a lake house to learn how to buy a house in another state.
The demand for second homes is growing, but so are the barriers. With limited inventory and rising prices, many buyers are hesitant to take on the full cost and responsibility of a second property. Others worry about leaving a home unused for much of the year or managing short-term renters.
That’s where co-ownership comes in. This modern approach to second-home ownership gives agents a powerful way to meet evolving client needs, earn more through commissions and grow your business in a changing market.

What is co-ownership?

With co-ownership, buyers purchase a share of a private, high-value home alongside a small group of other vetted owners. It’s an ideal solution for clients seeking more flexibility and accessibility than traditional second-home ownership, with greater equity and control.With Pacaso, clients benefit from a professionally managed LLC co-ownership model that offers true real estate ownership. While DIY LLC ownership has existed for years, it’s often difficult to manage. Pacaso simplifies the process by handling the management, maintenance and scheduling so your clients can enjoy their home for several weeks a year, minus the typical headaches of ownership.

Why it’s a win for agents

Co-ownership isn’t just a smart option for buyers, it’s a business-builder for agents. Whether your clients are priced out of full ownership or simply want more flexibility, co-ownership allows you to expand your reach and offer more tailored solutions.
“This is just another way for agents to step up and grow their business. We partner agents with our sales team, who handles the transaction: quick close, quick payments. It’s easy to introduce Pacaso to your clientele and give them options.” - Marnie Blanco, VP of Industry Relations.
No matter where you’re based or licensed, you can refer clients to thousands of homes nationwide and in select global markets and earn a 3% referral commission on each share your clients purchase. No extra work, just faster deals and greater earning potential.
