Friends and family have been entering into these type of agreements for years. If you have a group that agrees on the same property we think that's awesome. Our solution isn't for everyone. But we are trying to make this co-ownership opportunity available to everyone. Especially those who want to invest in a property but don't have a group to go in with them.

In terms of disputes, we agree that most can be handled through simple communication. Our platform allows for this. Many of our owners like the idea of having Ancana there to act as a go-between for issues that do arise and to set rules that everyone can agree to.

Good luck with your home buying adventure! What areas are you looking at?

Makes sense, best of luck! Hopefully my direct and honest feedback is helpful as you navigate your business model.

I'm looking at Costa Rica, BVIs and Medellin.

Absolutely! Your comment and another on this thread inspired us to explore extending our product offering to include people who already have their co-owners in mind and are just looking for help with a property search and setting up of the investment trust. We'll likely move into greater LATAM in the next year. Feel free to drop me a note if you ever have any questions about the search or process, we'd be happy to help (ryan@ancana.co)
