OUR RESSOURCES

We’ve done the vetting so you don’t have to risk a nervous breakdown. Clients at COP benefit from curated access to top-tier fractional operators, legal and tax specialists, and property managers across key destinations in France, Spain, Italy and selected US markets.

From early exploration through 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.

No fluff, no filler—just the people who’ll actually answer the phone when the boiler breaks in February.

OUR MISSION

Our mission is simple: make fractional second-home ownership feel clear, honest (no, it is not timeshare!) and genuinely 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 without the usual confusion.

OUR VALUES

We can select the best listings, cherry-pick the finest properties, locations and prices, then present only what we’d genuinely recommend.

Selectivity, transparency and alignment with our buyers sit at the core of everything we do. We filter hard, say no often, and only showcase homes and structures we’d be comfortable recommending to close friends and family.

You won’t find every listing under the sun here; instead, we curate properties and operators we’d actually use ourselves.

No pressure, no pushy tactics—just honest guidance from people who’ve been through the process and have nothing to gain from steering you wrong.

OUR GOAL

A smarter way to own the world (or at least the nicer bits of it). We believe second-home ownership should be about memories made, not weeks wasted or investments gathering dust (and bills ever increasing…)

With fractional shares, families own only what they use—luxuriously and sustainably.

Around 45 days per year (1/8th) gives plenty of time to justify the investment, and you can always buy more shares if you develop an unhealthy attachment to a particular terrace. We’re championing a new era of intentional ownership.

Testimonials

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

Hedda testimonial south of France

Astrid - Mougins, South Of France

With a cabin in Norway already to maintain, I didn’t want more responsibility or the stress of renting to strangers.

Co-ownership immediately made sense to me. It felt like a smart, modern way to own. When the right villa appeared, I trusted my instinct. I knew the area, had done my research, and saw it as a long-term investment — even though I hadn’t visited the house in person yet.

From the first stay, everything felt effortless. It’s like arriving at your own home with the comfort of a hotel. The beds are made, towels ready, soap in the shower — nothing to think about. Every visit starts with calm, not chores.

One detail I love is the shared car waiting in the garage. From day one, we were free to explore hilltop villages, coastal roads, markets and small restaurants across Provence and the Côte d’Azur.

I did wonder how shared ownership would feel, but that concern quickly disappeared. Everyone takes real care of the house, and that gives me peace of mind.

Now Provence is part of our rhythm — Easter, summer, even winter trips.

I love it already, and I don’t have to worry about a thing.

Harry and Nicole - La Plagne, French Alps

 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.

Young couple from LA review about Lake Tahoe property

Mateo & Anne - LA, California

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.

Family swimming in Mallorca review fractional

Jan & The Family - Mallorca, Spain

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.
