Park City agent sees Pacaso as the future of second home ownership

Jay and Michael enjoyed their second home, but they didn’t use it as much as they expected. At the same time, they still felt attached to the home and weren’t ready to sell.

Challenge

Pacaso provided an opportunity and a service Jay and Michael couldn’t find anywhere else: a streamlined way to sell a portion of their second home to interested buyers while keeping the remaining shares for themselves. 

Solution

Jay and Michael initially listed four of their home’s eight shares for sale, and the overwhelming response from buyers prompted them to list a fifth share. All five sold in less than 30 days.

Elizabeth Olcott leads a successful team in Napa Valley. But with an ever-shrinking inventory of luxury homes, listings for clients seeking higher-end second homes have been limited.

Pacaso opens up new inventory for second home buyers, giving Elizabeth more options for her clients and an appealing pitch: co-ownership of a home that meets their needs at a desirable price point. It also offers current second home owners a streamlined way to sell a portion of their home, providing a new source of seller leads.

In her first three months partnering with Pacaso, Elizabeth generated more than $175,000 in gross commission income, and the partnership has created a new stream of valuable whole home buyer leads.

Homeowner Testimonials

There are so many reasons Pacaso owners love their turnkey second homes: beautiful furnishings, easy scheduling, right-size ownership. Hear from them. 

What current owners love about their Pacaso

Kirk and Sheray enjoyed spending time in the Napa Valley and started exploring a second-home purchase – but it was difficult to find a single-family home in their preferred location that fell within their budget.

Having experience with resort timeshare ownership, Kirk and Sheray weren’t interested in that again, so they considered buying a condo. But then they learned about an ideal option: Pacaso.

Kirk and Sheray purchased a share of a Pacaso in St. Helena, and they couldn’t be happier with their new home away from home. They feel like locals, love the neighborhood and can truly unwind at their “Poolhouse” in wine country.
