Private Residence Club: Fractional Ownership Investment

How does Fractional Title Ownership work?

Fractional Ownership can be defined as shared Ownership and shared usage of a professionally managed luxury holiday Villa. As the asset is owned by more than one individual, this means your capital investment, risk, and ongoing costs are drastically reduced. You get four weeks per year to access and the dates of the weeks vary each year. To ensure you are kept up to speed on what your dates are, please check the resort calendar on an annual basis.

What is Monomotapa Village Private Residence Club?

Monomotapa Village Private Residence Club is the collective name used for all fractional ownership investors. This is for Owners who want more than one week guaranteed holiday every year, but are not quite ready yet to purchase outright. Based on the Fractional Ownership model, the Private Residence Club allows you to purchase four weeks exclusive access to luxury self-catering holiday Villas at one of our various developments.

What am I investing in?

You are purchasing the right of exclusive occupancy (your "usage time") in a villa for a specific period. Your “share” of the villa in question is determined as two or four weeks ("time") depending on your purchase choice. During the weeks you have been allocated, the entire villa is at your disposal. The purchase price for each of the fractional periods available is determined by the seasonal demand for holiday accommodation at your resort.

What is my usage time?

Your usage time is the allocated period during which your holiday home is exclusively occupied by you. As a Fractional Title Owner you have two or four fixed weeks per year at your disposal with which to holiday at your chosen resort.

What fees do I pay?

Each owner pays for the maintenance, cleaning and management costs in the form of an annual levy. Included in the annual budget is a provision allowance for a reserve fund, which is required to refurbish the villa on a 7 year cycle, so you can always be sure that the quality of your investment is maintained to a high standard.

All owners who have purchased unit access time at Monomotapa Village will pay an equal share of the annual body corporate levy applicable to the unit owned. The levy is used for the property and administration costs of running and maintaining the resort to the standard that you expect.

Can I transfer my Fractional Title Ownership?

Should you wish to re-sell your Fractional Shares you can do so. Fractional Shares can also be passed on to family or friends through a simple transfer of shares process.
