Shared Ownership in Whistler: Explained

Let's chat about Fractional (Shared) Ownership in Whistler! 

Shared/Fractional ownership in Whistler offers a hands-off way to own a slice of Whistler real estate at a fraction of the cost.

Unlike timeshares (which work on a point system), fractional ownership provides true property ownership, meaning you benefit from equity appreciation while enjoying a home in Whistler without full-time costs.

full ownership options that allow short term nightly rentals?

➡️ That would be TA Zoned (Tourist Accommodation) homes with a Phase 1 or Phase 2 covenant on title. 

Phase 1: 

The most flexible when it comes to owner usage and short term nightly rental allowance. You're able to use it as much as you like personally, and rent it out nightly as much as you like.

Phase 2: 

Typically in hotel complexes in the village. These homes allow for personal usage for up to 28 days in the winter and 28 days in the summer. The rest of the time, it's a hands off experience, managed by the hotel management, earning revenue for you.
