Options
Our villas are sold in two types of resort ownership – Full or Fractional and insured by Stewart Title. Every interest is secured by separate deed in the purchased Villa.
Fractional property ownership provides vacation without the financial burdens and worries of typical home ownership and ranges from 1/8 interest (6 weeks) to 1/4 interest (13 weeks). Affordable luxury that offers a vacation home opportunity that can last a lifetime. A simple concept: enjoy the benefits of glamorous real estate ownership without the full commitment.
Villa la Estancia offers full property ownership in Mexico, currently in both Puerto Vallarta and Cabo San Lucas. Developer financing is available and can help you get your desired villa and investment with ease.

What is it?
The concept is very simple. We bring unrelated parties together to co-own a second home, similar to what friends and relatives have done on their own, for decades.
Fractional ownership is the shared ownership of a villa with "partner" owners in the same unit. Villas in this program are divided into fractions of 1/8 (6 weeks) or 1/4 (13 weeks) per year, for life.
You get the same beautiful villa, the same amenities, the same privileges and the same great lifestyle as if you owned a villa outright, but for a fraction of the price.
Fractional ownership is the perfect real estate invesment for vacationers, snow birds, travelers and other seasonal residents. The flexibility of the system allows you to purchase as much time in the home of your dreams as you like.
Belive it! The most affordable way to own your second home by the sea in México is through Villa Group's Fractional Ownership Program.
More on fractions
It is not a Timeshare. The buyer owns titled real estate on a particular villa (as opposed to units of time or points). Unlike timeshare interests, fractional ownership offers you investment, tax and legal benefits, in your own single-family estate property.
As the property appreciates in value, so does each individually deeded fraction. Owners can sell their individual fraction whenever they choose.
Not just a floor plan in a large condo, or hotel-like complex where you float from similar unit to unit on each visit, with sterile, often nailed down, impersonal furnishings.
To keep the property running smoothly, fractional villas will be professionally managed and maintained by the Villa La Estancia management company, the cost of which is included in your maintenance fees.
Fractional ownership is for the buyer that is most often not interested in a timeshare, allowing you to acquire a fee-simple, deeded equity interest in a property.
As a fractional owner you receive an undivided fractional interest in a property, as a tenant-in-common with the other owners. Not just a right to use a property, but real equitable ownership, that appreciates over time.
Fractional ownership provides you the opportunity to own one or more properties, leveraging your equity capital into a bigger, better quality property that you will probably use as much as you would with whole ownership.

How the schedule works
Owners are given the usage schedule for the villa at the time of purchase. Usage assigments automatically rotate every year so you know in advance how to plan your return visits.
The owner is free to keep their assigned spot or exchange dates with other owners at their convenience. Owners may also choose to exchange with other resorts in our Trade Program.
Benefits and features of Fractional Ownership.
Cost effective
Fractional ownership offers a sensible, problem-free way to balance your vacation time usage to your invesment in a second home.
Fee simple Real Estate
You enjoy all rights and privileges of owning real estate. That is, you can sell your property at any time at any price, will your share to your heirs, rent it, allow friends to use it, invite guests to share it and last, but we hope not least, escape to it with your love ones.
Great invesment
As with whole ownership, if the property appreciates in value, the so do the shares. Fractional owners can sell whenever they deem necessary or prudent, releasing the capital growth from their "bricks & mortar" invesment.
Rental income
Upon request, Villa La Estancia will rent your fractional villa when you are not using it. Income generated can be used to help pay your maintenance fees and taxes.
Upgrading from fractional ownership to full ownership
Fractional owners can upgrade to traditional ownership of a villa at any time. Villa La Estancia will buy back the fraction by discounting the original amount the buyer paid for the fraction from the current price of the full ownership villa.
