About Co-Ownership Property (COP)

COP is a specialist buyer’s agency dedicated exclusively to premium fractional ownership (also called co-ownership) second homes in some of the most premium tourist destinations in the world. Acting 100% on the buyer’s side, we carefully choose the partners and operators we work with – collaborating only with the most reputable, transparent and professionally managed fractional ownership companies in Europe, the US and beyond.

Our Mission

Our mission is simple: make fractional second‑home ownership feel clear, honest (no, it is not timeshare!) and enjoyable. We do the legwork on partners, contracts and operations, then share what actually matters for your stay and your exit. No jargon, no hard sell – just straight answers and well‑run homes. We live and breathe international markets—having called London, Spain, France and South America home ourselves. That means we truly understand what it takes to help buyers from the UK, Scandinavia, Holland, America, the UAE, Singapore, Australia and beyond navigate fractional ownership.

Our Goal

A smarter way to own the world. We believe second-home ownership should be about memories made, not weeks wasted. With fractional shares, families own only what they use—luxuriously and sustainably. Around 44 days per year (1/8th) gives plenty of time to enjoy, and you can always buy more shares if you want longer stays. We’re ending the era of empty homes.

Our Values

Selectivity, transparency and alignment with our buyers sit at the core of everything we do. We are proud to be agents – not just a soulless marketplace or listing platform. We do not list every company; instead, we filter hard, say no often, and present only those homes and structures we would be comfortable recommending to close friends and family.

Our Resources

Clients at COP benefit from curated access to top-tier fractional operators, legal and tax specialists, property managers across key destinations in France, Spain, Italy and selected US markets. From early exploration to purchase and beyond, we provide structured comparisons, operator vetting, and personalised guidance so each buyer secures the right home, in the right structure, with the right partner.

Testimonials

Some of the fractional ownership happy clients along the years....

Harry and Nicole – London, UK

Owning a place in the French Alps, in La Plagne Montalbert (Paradiski), had always been a dream for ours, but a full 3-bedroom chalet with ski-in/ski-out access was simply beyond our budget. Fractional ownership offered the perfect solution—allowing us to enjoy all the benefits of a luxury mountain home without the stress and cost of managing a whole property on our own. The process was incredibly smooth from start to finish, and Harry and I felt fully supported throughout. We are absolutely in love with our new home.Our son can now invite his school friends to ski for half term, and the owners’ group even purchased three e-bikes last year so we can make the most of the many summer activities. Fractional ownership truly made our dream of La Plagne a reality.

Jan & The Family - Amsterdam, Netherlands

I discovered the fractional ownership model after becoming a rather frustrated second-home owner. For years, I felt guilty about not spending enough time in my French holiday home, so I eventually sold it, took the profit, and used just a quarter of that to buy a much nicer villa (the rest is now safely invested). Guilt gone. The process was straightforward and easy. I’d been nervous about buying in Spain – we bought a villa in Port d'Andratx, Mallorca – but the team handled everything flawlessly. The villa is stunning, the kids love it, and it feels like ours the moment we walk through the door. As working parents we struggle to use the property for more than three to four weeks a year, so the remaining weeks are rented out, and that more than covers the monthly running costs, which is fantastic. Highly recommended.

Mateo & Anne - LA, California

We’ve been driving up from LA to Tahoe every summer for years, but with prices where they are, we just couldn’t justify buying a whole house that would sit empty for 48 weeks a year. Renting was getting ridiculously expensive, too, so this ownership model felt like the perfect ‘middle way’. We finally own a piece of the land without the guilt of an unused mortgage. The process was transparent from day one and, honestly, we couldn’t be happier. We love Europe as well and are already thinking about buying a place in France or Spain together with our parents.
