00:00People are starting to get creative to set foot on the property ladder.
00:07According to Forbes, people are exploring two options,
00:11fractional homeownership and multi-generational homeownership.
00:15Those exploring fractional homeownership can look into companies like Picasso,
00:20which helps people own second homes by allowing them to own a portion of a house.
00:25It sounds like a timeshare,
00:26but they specifically focus on family homes and the amount of time you get to use the home
00:31depends on how much of the home you own.
00:34The minimum you're allowed to purchase is one-eighth.
00:37They handle everything for you, like legalities, payments and maintenance.
00:41You just have to really do your research,
00:43because some of the homes are valued as high as $750,000 a share.
00:49The New York Times reports that multi-generational homes
00:52where two or more generations live together are on the rise
00:56because the cost of long-term care is rising and so are the prices of homes.
01:01If you think the process of buying a home with your family will be a positive experience
01:06and will be happy living with them, it's a win-win.
