What is equity sharing? A complete guide to Pacaso’s shared ownership model

Thinking about a second home, but hesitating because of the math, the upkeep, and the “is co-ownership worth it?” questions?  With fluctuating interest rates, rising insurance and maintenance costs, and the general hassle of owning a property far from your primary residence, The catch is that a lot of people are still evaluating co-ownership through old, misleading mental models: random strangers, timeshare rules, rigid weeks, complicated logistics, and messy exits. That’s not how modern co-ownership works, and it’s definitely not Myth #1: “Co-ownership means sharing your homes with random people.” This isn’t an open-door situation; it’s a limited set of co-owners who each have a real stake in the property. And because everyone owns, the incentives are aligned: owners treat the home like an asset and a retreat, not a revolving rental. Want to see what that looks like in real life? Myth #2: “This is basically a nice timeshare.” The comparison between With Pacaso, each co-owner holds a When it comes time to sell, owners can list their interest on the open market rather than being limited to selling back to a resort company at unfavorable buyback terms. There are no points systems, no resort affiliations, and no sprawling fee structures disconnected from the actual costs of running that specific home. The proof is in the structure itself, and any prospective buyer who wants to understand the legal and practical distinctions in detail is welcome to walk through them with our team. Myth #3: “You’re stuck with fixed weeks every year.” Pacaso is built for real life — plans change, calendars shift, and flexibility matters. Owners use our proprietary Myth #4: “Home management sounds difficult with multiple owners.” You show up to a well-kept, ready-to-enjoy home. When you leave, you’re not stuck coordinating vendors, troubleshooting issues, or worrying about whether the place is being cared for properly. Part of what makes that possible is thoughtful design. Pacaso's co-ownership model is built for people who want the experience of a second home without the complexity of managing shared relationships directly. Most owners choose Pacaso precisely because they value privacy and prefer not to coordinate with co-owners on day-to-day matters, and the model is structured to make that the default. That said, hands-off doesn't mean left out. While Pacaso handles the day-to-day so owners never have to, the decisions that genuinely matter require owner input. Major choices go to a vote, with approval thresholds that scale with the significance of the decision, from a simple majority to unanimous consent.  On the financial side, owners review and must approve the annual budget before it takes effect. It's a structure designed to give owners exactly the right level of involvement: none of the operational headaches, and all of the meaningful control. Myth #5: “Co-ownership can be messy. What happens when someone wants out?” Selling is straightforward. Owners list their shares directly through Pacaso's marketplace, where we provide pricing guidance based on current market conditions; though each owner ultimately sets their own price, just as they would in a traditional real estate transaction.  Pacaso acts as the listing agent, supporting the process and connecting sellers with qualified buyers. When multiple shares in the same home are listed simultaneously, pricing can vary by owner. Buyers have full transparency into all available shares and can choose based on price or preferred calendar availability, so outcomes are driven by a combination of pricing, timing, and buyer demand. The numbers tell a compelling story. Across several hundred resales since inception, Pacaso shares have averaged 99 days on market, a meaningful advantage when you consider that luxury homes in the $5–10M range (the tier most comparable to Pacaso's portfolio) typically take 120–200+ days to sell, with significant variation by market.  Research from the Concierge Auctions 2025 Luxury Home Index found that ultra-luxury homes take roughly four times longer to sell than the average home, and that properties sitting beyond 180 days tend to close at around 20% below their original listing price.  Pacaso shares, by contrast, have averaged 6% price appreciation at resale, with 73% of all completed resales closing above the original purchase price.  That said, Pacaso markets its properties as luxury second homes, not investment vehicles, and we are deliberate about that distinction. Real estate values fluctuate, and we don't represent otherwise. The primary value of co-ownership is access to a high-quality property at a fraction of the cost of sole ownership, and we encourage buyers to conduct their own due diligence and consult independent advisors when evaluating a purchase. So, is Pacaso worth it? How Pacaso simplifies co-ownership Pacaso owners get the second-home lifestyle without the traditional second-home hassle. Instead of “booking weeks” or rolling the dice on vacation rentals, they build real ownership in a luxury home, alongside a small group of co-owners and a scheduling system designed for flexibility. Unlike Our focus has been on improving the fundamentals of the business: driving more efficient sales, maintaining disciplined inventory levels, and expanding our resale marketplace to enhance liquidity and long-term owner value.  We continue to see strong demand across both domestic and international markets, and we're scaling in a way that balances growth with financial discipline. As a Regulation A reporting company, we provide detailed financials through our public filings, and we're committed to ensuring all investors have equal access to information. If you want a place that feels like yours (because it is), with the freedom to use it throughout the year and the confidence that everything is taken care of, co-ownership through Pacaso is the easiest path. If you’re ready to take the smarter path to second-home ownership,

You’ve decided it’s time for a second home — a private retreat where you can escape, recharge, and make memories with loved ones. But traditional ownership can be overwhelming, with high costs, maintenance, and scheduling challenges. Short-term rentals are often impersonal, and timeshares can feel restrictive. So, how does Pacaso work? Pacaso reimagines second-home ownership through fully managed What is Pacaso? Pacaso, Each Pacaso home is held in a How does Pacaso work? Owning a second home can be expensive and stressful, with unpredictable maintenance and scheduling conflicts. Pacaso simplifies the process by combining true property ownership with Here’s how Pacaso co-ownership works at a glance: One of the most common questions prospective co-owners ask is: what exactly am I paying each month? The short answer is that Pacaso monthly fees cover everything it takes to maintain a luxury second home at the standard you'd expect, and then some.  There are no mystery line items, no surprise invoices. Just a clear, shared cost structure designed to make ownership as effortless as it is worthwhile. Pacaso budgets for each home's operating expenses annually, then breaks the total into 12 monthly payments. Costs are shared among co-owners on a pro rata basis, meaning you pay only for the share you own. Those payments are deposited directly into the property's LLC account, and Pacaso uses the funds to cover expenses as they arise. Every budget is fully customized for the property and grounded in actual spend, not estimates pulled from thin air. Each budget is reviewed and approved by the homeowners themselves before taking effect, so it always reflects the true cost of maintaining the home. And every quarter, expenses are reconciled. If a home comes in under budget, owners receive credits back. Pacaso monthly fees typically cover: Like any real estate market, operating costs for luxury second homes have evolved. Since 2021, the broader cost of owning and operating a second home in the markets where Pacaso operates has risen roughly 40–50% on average, driven by inflation and rising costs for insurance, labor, and services, particularly in high-demand destinations where skilled vendors are harder to source for large luxury properties.  Across the Pacaso portfolio, actual operating expense increases have tracked closer to 30% over that same period, generally in line with, but slightly below, broader market trends. The biggest individual drivers have been rising insurance premiums and property taxes. Insurance in particular has seen steep increases over the past five years, especially in states like California, Florida, and Colorado, where many Pacaso homes are located.  Carriers have exited markets, reduced coverage, and raised premiums across the board for residential properties, a well-documented industry-wide trend that has affected second-home owners everywhere, not just Pacaso co-owners. That said, Pacaso's property insurance costs have stayed essentially flat in the most recent renewals, even against the backdrop of significant industry losses, including those from the Malibu wildfires. This is a direct result of the strength of the Pacaso portfolio and the disciplined way homes are managed. As Pacaso's track record as a proven property manager has grown, that reputation has been reflected in more competitive coverage and pricing. Pacaso owners were already paying market-rate property management costs from day one. What has changed over time is not the total cost of managing a home, but where those fees go.  In Pacaso's early years, management was handled by third-party vendors whose rates varied and increased annually. As Pacaso scaled, it built an in-house property management team covering property management, accounting, legal support, and full home and vendor coordination, replacing those external providers with a consistent, comprehensive service. During the transition, Pacaso's internal fee was kept intentionally low and has since been gradually brought in line with market rates: approximately 20% from 2022–2023, 8% from 2023–2024, and 14% from 2024–2025. These adjustments represent a reallocation of existing costs from variable third-party vendors to Pacaso at consistent, market-rate pricing, not a net increase in what it costs to run your home. Now that the portfolio is fully transitioned, Pacaso has not raised property management fee tiers over the past two years, and the goal going forward is stable, predictable pricing, a meaningful improvement over the variable annual increases owners experienced under third-party management. Monthly owner expenses may be adjusted to reflect real changes in home costs, whether insurance, taxes, or other market-driven increases. When adjustments are necessary, they are communicated proactively, with backup documentation available upon request. Because the budget process requires owner approval on an annual basis, owners see and vote on cost changes directly. There are no surprises hidden in the fine print. Owners also have meaningful input into the significant decisions affecting their home. While Pacaso handles day-to-day property management on behalf of the LLC, major decisions require a vote of the owners, with thresholds that vary depending on the nature of the decision, ranging from a simple majority to unanimous consent.  On the financial side, Pacaso prepares a proposed annual budget and presents it to owners for review, and that budget must be approved by a majority of ownership interests before it takes effect. Owners aren't involved in routine operational matters, which is by design since that's much of the value Pacaso provides, but they retain real governance rights over the decisions that matter most. It's the kind of financial clarity and owner control that's rare in traditional second-home ownership, and one of the reasons co-owning with Pacaso simply makes sense. What makes Pacaso homes special? Pacaso homes are intentionally designed to feel like true retreats — not just places to stay, but places you genuinely look forward to returning to. Every detail is thoughtfully curated to deliver a consistent, high-end ownership experience across locations. Together, these elements create a second-home experience that is polished, predictable, and easy, so owners can focus on enjoying their time rather than managing the property. How do Pacaso alternatives compare? Many buyers unfamiliar with the Pacaso business model ask the same question: is Pacaso a timeshare? The short answer is no. But to fully understand how the Pacaso business model works, it helps to compare it to the most common second-home options available today. By combining true property ownership with professional management, flexible access, and financial transparency, Pacaso homes offer a modern, stress-free alternative to traditional second-home models — without the limitations of rentals or timeshares. Why is Pacaso the smart way to buy a second home? If you’re wondering, “how does Pacaso work for second home buyers?” The answer lies in its modern approach to luxury second-home ownership — one that blends the rewards of owning a vacation home with professional management, flexibility, and peace of mind. Rather than purchasing a second home on your own, Pacaso allows buyers to co-own a luxury property, sharing costs and responsibilities while still enjoying true, deeded ownership. Being a Pacaso owner is about more than just time in a house — it’s about enjoying a vacation home without the work. Owners benefit from: Owning a Pacaso share isn’t just about a property — it’s about creating a personal getaway filled with memories, comfort, and freedom.

Pacaso is a team of real estate and tech veterans with a mission: Enrich lives by making second home ownership possible and enjoyable for more people.  We offer buyers a smarter way to approach owning a second home: professionally managed Buying and owning a second home through Pacaso dramatically reduces costs and lessens management and scheduling hassles. This lets buyers who are sitting on the sidelines have the chance to become true property owners of a home that previously was beyond their price range.  And it opens up opportunities for real estate agents to have new conversations with buyers and sellers. They can access the second home of their dreams in one of their favorite locations for less money than if they purchased a whole home.   Co-owning real estate is not a new concept. But doing it on your own with friends or family often creates hassle and strain on personal relationships. Many DIY owners find it daunting to communicate effectively about scheduling, maintenance and managing the home.  Pacaso eliminates those issues, making co-ownership easy for the first time by creating a professionally managed, property-specific LLC design especially for co-ownership. A limited liability company (LLC) ensures that the owners are not personally liable for the company’s debts or liabilities. It combines some elements of a partnership, sole proprietorship and a corporation. For buyers, co-ownership increases their purchasing power. It also reduces the stress and pressure of whole home ownership. Gone is the feeling of guilt from leaving a home empty much of the year. Gone is the hassle of vacation rental platforms, the anxiety of knowing that dozens (or hundreds) of strangers are traveling in and out of your home, and the tedium of dealing with repairs.  The benefits for buyers, sellers, owners Buyers can shop from Pacaso’s curated listings. Alternatively, if they find an active listing they’d love to co-own, they can submit the listing to Pacaso; if it meets our specifications, we’ll partner with the buyer to purchase and close on the home, as well as identify vetted co-owners. Each home is co-owned by a maximum of eight owners who use it with only family and friends; no outside rentals are allowed. Owners schedule time in the home with our innovative and equitable SmartStay system on the owner app. And instead of worrying about maintenance, Pacaso's professionally managed LLC will take care of all property management needs. Sellers have two options to work with Pacaso. First, they can decide to sell their whole home to us. Pacaso is a qualified buyer, and we pay premium prices for turnkey homes in the right locations.  Alternatively, current second home owners can decide to keep as much as half of the ownership in their home while unlocking their equity by selling the other portion through Pacaso’ selldown program. This allows owners to keep the home they love while tapping into its liquidity and continuing to enjoy access to their second home. Why partner with Pacaso today? The Pacaso crew, led by former executives from Zillow, has more than 100 years of combined expertise using big ideas and innovative technology to create great real estate experiences.

For many real estate agents, Pacaso sparks interest — and just as many questions. To explore those questions, we spoke with top-producing realtor, real estate investor, and author, Eugene Kamenskiy, who has built a dedicated platform educating buyers and agents on the Pacaso model.  Drawing from his personal journey, professional credentials, and years of hands-on experience, he shares why Pacaso resonated with him and effective marketing strategies for real estate agents to thoughtfully and successfully position it in today’s luxury real estate landscape. This conversation is designed for real estate agents: practical, candid, and rooted in real-world application rather than sales theory. Q1: How did you first get introduced to Pacaso, and what was your initial impression? My journey to Pacaso began from a very personal place — a dream that started in the middle of a cold Canadian winter. During the harsh winter of 2021, amid COVID-19 lockdowns and ice storms in Toronto, I found myself dreaming of an escape to warmer climates: the Florida sun, the sound of the ocean, and the idea of finally owning a vacation home. It was a dream I’d held for nearly 20 years, ever since a conversation with a former boss who owned a modest Florida property. When I finally began researching seriously, reality hit quickly. The beachfront home I envisioned was priced around $4 million — far beyond my $500,000 budget. Even with financing, the ongoing carrying costs, maintenance responsibilities, and the fact that I’d only use the home four to six weeks a year made traditional ownership financially impractical. That dream felt out of reach — until I discovered the concept of co-ownership. That’s when I found Pacaso. When I first came across Pacaso, it was a pivotal moment. My initial impression? I was blown away. Here was a Silicon Valley–backed company that had cracked the code for affordable luxury living. Pacaso wasn’t just offering co-ownership — it was delivering a In my book, I describe Pacaso as a “paradigm-shifting solution” because it turned what once felt like fantasy into something real and attainable. My takeaway was simple: Pacaso built the model that made the impossible finally possible. Q2: What made you confident in recommending Pacaso and promoting it in general? At first, I was impressed by how the Pacaso model opened doors for people who once believed owning a luxury vacation home was impossible. Emotionally, it felt revolutionary — a concept that could truly redefine the entire second-home industry and create new opportunities for countless dreamers. But what ultimately gave me confidence wasn’t just the idea — it was the people and the proof behind it. Leadership & track record What gave me instant trust in Pacaso was the leadership behind it. Spencer Rascoff (former Zillow CEO) and Austin Allison (founder of Dotloop) aren’t just successful tech entrepreneurs — they’re true real estate visionaries who understand both innovation and property ownership. Their advisory board includes some of the most respected names in the industry, and with $1.5 billion in funding and backing from top-tier investors, Pacaso’s credibility felt undeniable. These are people who clearly know what they’re doing – equipped with the experience, data, and resources to evaluate markets and validate concepts at the highest level. I remember thinking, A proven model Results speak louder than words. Pacaso now has over 2,000 satisfied owners, 90,000 nights booked, a $1B real estate portfolio, and operations in 40 global destinations. Real estate asset As a real estate investor, I immediately recognized the strength of Pacaso’s model. Resilience by design From an investor’s perspective, the Pacaso model appeared remarkably resilient across different market cycles — that was my logical conclusion. When markets are strong, share values naturally rise with the tide, reflecting appreciation in the underlying real estate. But when interest rates climb and affordability declines, co-ownership becomes not just an attractive alternative — it might become the only accessible path for many buyers to step into luxury ownership, fueling demand and, in turn, supporting share values. Pacaso’s structure adapts to both climates, making it, in my view, a smart and sustainable model in any market. Personal alignment As a licensed realtor, mortgage agent, and real estate investor with a multimillion-dollar portfolio — and someone who has always valued innovation that delivers real, lasting results — I saw in Pacaso a model that passed every test: financial, operational, and philosophical. It represents exactly what I believe in: smart, efficient investing, true hard-asset ownership, and the freedom to live your dream today, not someday. Q3: What do you wish more real estate agents understood about Pacaso? I have a chapter in my book: This is not just another home; it’s a lifestyle transformation that opens doors to experiences previously out of reach. Pacaso doesn’t compete with traditional ownership — it expands the market, creating homeowners out of people who might otherwise rent, stay in hotels, or never own a vacation property at all. Agents who promote Pacaso are not only salespeople but also educators and advisors, helping clients realize dreams they once thought impossible. I also wish agents recognized the power of leverage within the Pacaso model. With the ease and flexibility of  Finally, agents should understand that Pacaso solves real problems, such as affordability barriers, management headaches, and underutilization. It’s a legitimate, modern solution for sophisticated buyers seeking maximum return and enjoyment. From my own marketing experience, I’ve learned one important lesson: if you promote only “savings” or “affordability,” you attract the wrong audience. The real message is value, access, and lifestyle transformation — that’s where Pacaso truly shines. Q4: How does Pacaso enhance the second-home ownership experience? In my book, Pacaso transforms second-home ownership from a burden into pure joy — it eliminates every pain point traditionally tied to owning a vacation property and replaces them with simplicity, flexibility, and freedom. Eliminates the “second job” problem Traditional vacation homeownership often feels like work, from coordinating maintenance and paying bills to arranging cleaners and worrying about an empty property. You finally arrive for a short vacation and end up busy fixing things instead of relaxing. Pacaso changes everything. They handle design, furnishing, cleaning, repairs, utilities, taxes, insurance, and reserve funds. You simply arrive, unpack, and start living your dream. Adds true flexibility With Upgrades the Asset Instead of owning a modest $500,000 property, my clients can now own a share of a $2M – $3.5M luxury home with resort-level amenities, the difference between a basic condo miles from the beach and a luxury waterfront estate just steps from the sand. Freedom from debt and stress In my book and No debt, no carrying costs (with smart strategy) Using strategies I outline in my book, Pacaso owners can invest their remaining (saved) capital in cash-flowing assets that cover their monthly Pacaso ownership fees. That means they enjoy their dream home without debt and without out-of-pocket carrying costs. Pacaso doesn’t just enhance second-home ownership — it completely redefines it. It’s not about owning a property; it’s about owning your freedom, your time, and your dream. Q5: What feedback have you received from clients? Many clients who discovered Pacaso through While my book The book itself has generated strong interest. My reader survey shows that people become more interested in co-ownership after reading it. Q6: If you had to describe Pacaso to another real estate agent in just a few words, what would you say? "Pacaso is where Silicon Valley innovation meets luxury real estate — making dream homes accessible through smart co-ownership, backed by proven leadership, and wrapped in hassle-free, turnkey management." "Unlock the luxury market for your clients. Pacaso turns $2M second homes into accessible $400K opportunities — with you earning on every share sold." About the agent This Q&A features Eugene Kamenskiy, a top-producing realtor and Pacaso expert behind Your opportunity with Pacaso Pacaso isn’t just a new ownership model — it’s a new opportunity for agents. For real estate agents willing to understand the structure, educate thoughtfully, and position Pacaso as a value-driven lifestyle solution rather than a discount play, the upside is meaningful. Pacaso enables agents to serve buyers who may have otherwise stayed on the sidelines — and to do so with credibility, confidence, and scale. If you have additional questions,

If you’re considering a Pacaso purchase, you want to know the bottom line. Buyers who purchase a traditional whole home often have zero insight into both the upfront and long-term costs needed to maintain their home.  Rest assured, we’ve got you covered. When you co-own with Pacaso, you can expect both full transparency and fairness in the costs of buying and operating your home. We make sure buyers understand the cost breakdown from the get-go, so there are no surprises later on. Our structured pricing details the intricacies of managing a luxury home so that owners have a clear understanding of their financial commitment. Beyond showing where these costs are going, we also manage your home, so you don’t have to deal with any of the typical hassles of home ownership. Once you find a Pacaso home you love, a Crew member will walk you through the costs associated with the listing. In the meantime, if you’re trying to understand the whole financial picture, our pricing model covers three main areas: Here’s how we approach each cost area. Determining the share price When you browse Pacaso listings, the sale price you see reflects the cost to purchase 1/8  ownership of the home. If you want more ownership, multiply that price by the number of shares you wish to purchase, up to four (1/2 ownership of the home). We determine the sale price of a share by adding these costs: You'll also find curated listings that waiting to become fully furnished Pacaso homes. We use the same criteria to estimate the share price, but the price may change slightly when the home becomes available for co-ownership. For example, we would determine the exact cost of upgrades once we walked through the home with our design team. Keeping the lights on For many people considering a second home purchase, one of the biggest downsides is the burden of owning another property. If you only expect to use your second home a few weeks or months a year, you are likely renting it out or struggling to find reliable local vendors to help with maintenance issues — especially if problems arise while you’re away from the property. When you co-own with Pacaso, you share the cost of maintenance and property management with the other co-owners instead of fronting the bill by yourself as with a traditional whole home. A key benefit of Pacaso is that we relieve you of the hassles of a second home by Because we do this legwork for you and other co-owners, you can always expect your Pacaso experience to be cost-effective, transparent and stress-free.  Monthly costs To get a detailed picture of ongoing costs, we budget for owner expenses annually and break the total into 12 monthly payments. Costs are shared between owners pro rata, based on the number of shares they own. Monthly payments are deposited into the LLC account, and Pacaso uses the funds to cover expenses as needed. Monthly expenses include: Monthly owner expenses may change as needed to cover any increases in the actual costs of the home, such as insurance, taxes or other increased rates. Adjustments are made quarterly, and all cost statements are proactively communicated to owners and backup documentation is available upon request.   Turnover services To make sure the home is always stay-ready for the next owner, we also charge an individual turnover fee after each stay to cover cleaning, home essentials replenishment, inventory assessment and light functionality checks. Providing a hassle-free ownership experience Pacaso is not only committed to providing a stress-free ownership experience, but also to giving you a detailed picture of your bottom line so you know exactly where your money is going. We believe that transparency and meticulous management are the keys to making your second home ownership dreams a reality. With Pacaso, you can truly focus on what matters most: Enjoying your beautiful second home and creating lasting memories.

Undoubtedly, you have buyer leads who dream of owning a second home — a place where they can go for a change of scenery, to work remotely or relax, to make memories with the people who matter most. Until now, few have been able to realize their second home dream. That’s where Pacaso and its fully managed LLC co-ownership model comes in. We’re unlocking exciting opportunities for consumers, agents and the real estate industry with a new way to own beautifully and furnished single-family residential homes in choice second-home markets.  Agents are problem-solvers, unwinding snarled negotiations and helping clients traverse their options when it comes to one of their most valuable assets. Working with Pacaso allows agents to solve problems for their second-home clients, saving the day by providing a professionally managed co-ownership solution for buyers and sellers. And working with Pacaso allows agents to generate additive sales, helping buyers who didn’t think they could afford a second home and sellers who want to keep their second home but don’t use it much time as they once did. Additive sales model: Manifesting new listings With Pacaso, real estate agents can generate more leads, close more deals and capture more commission by creating brand-new transactions that agents can wrap into their current business strategy as additive sales. For your clients looking for a second home, co-ownership is a way to right-size their ownership and purchase a fully managed and beautifully furnished home for less cost and expense than whole home ownership.  And consider what this model can offer to current second home owners in your sphere. They may have no intention of selling, but chances are they aren’t using the home as much as they’d like. Or they may have grown weary of managing it as a vacation rental. Professionally managed co-ownership will free them from the hassles, let them tap into their home’s liquidity, and still keep as much as half ownership.  Introducing Pacaso to your buyer and seller clients can help them achieve their second home goals and solve their problems.   And for real estate agents, the Pacaso LLC co-ownership model offers a new landscape for generating business and closing deals. -------- Quiz: 1.
