People are starting to get creative to set foot on the property ladder.
00:07
According to Forbes, people are exploring two options, fractional homeownership and
00:13
multi-generational homeownership. Those exploring fractional homeownership can look into companies
00:19
like Picasso, which helps people own second homes by allowing them to own a portion of a house.
00:25
It sounds like a timeshare, but they specifically focus on family homes and the amount of time you
00:30
get to use the home depends on how much of the home you own. The minimum you're allowed to
00:35
purchase is one-eighth. They handle everything for you, like legalities, payments, and maintenance.
00:41

00:47
a share. The New York Times reports that multi-generational homes where two or more
00:53

00:59
the prices of homes. If you think the process of buying a home with your family will be a
01:04
positive experience and will be happy living with them, it's a win-win.
