It’s not a timeshare — it’s my home It's not until I take friends and family to my Pacaso that they truly appreciate the whole experience and value proposition. Pacaso does an excellent job of putting the house together in a way that a lot of designers don't. I love the size and the breathtaking views, and I can bring a lot of friends and family over to entertain. Now that we have the home, the kids feel compelled to come. We've had a lot of really cherished moments together.

Bait and Switch Initially we loved Pacaso. We loved our home and the staff was always responsive. Then after a year, they assessed each home owner approximately $8K as they didn't budget accurately. On top of that, they increased our monthly payment by 65%!! It's a real bait and switch where they lure you into ownership and then assess you a huge amount at the end of the year (no forewarning whatsoever), and then greatly increase your monthly fee. At a time when inflation is less than 4% how in the world can they justify a 65% increase?

It’s almost like having a private hotel I’ve been going to Tahoe once or twice a ski season, renting Airbnbs with my brother and his family. I thought it’d be great to have a vacation home, but it seemed like such a hassle. I think the Pacaso model solves a lot of that. Scheduling is one of the best things about our Pacaso so far. The app has been terrific. I’m a UX designer working in apps, and I appreciate all the built-in features. I find that I'm getting most of the dates I want. Being able to share home information with guests has been a nice addition. We’ve tried swapping dates recently and that totally worked out for us too. Plus, I love having a home manager — that kind of white-glove approach is terrific. The thing I love about my Pacaso is that it’s not only a beautiful home but it also becomes a gravitational pull to bring in friends and family to spend quality time together!

Perfect ownership in Palm Desert My husband and I have owned a timeshare in Palm Desert for the past 12 years, and have loved coming to this beautiful paradise. During the pandemic, we explored ownership possibilities, and our son suggested we upgrade from our timeshare in the Valley and transition to owning real estate with Pacaso. A few months later, we were at the BNP Tennis tournament and saw Pacaso everywhere. It was literally a sign to move forward! We are now very happy owners of 2 shares and love the elevated quality of life we enjoy while at our Pacaso home. Every minute detail of ensuring a turnkey experience, is provided. We are thrilled with being Pacaso owners.

Purchasing our second home with Pacaso The process of purchasing our first Pacaso home was fast and easy. While it was a phenomenal house, it wasn't the perfect fit for our family with three kids. We were able to use the transfer program and it couldn't have been easier to switch houses. Now we’re in a home that’s a much better fit for our family. Our home manager has been nothing short of amazing. She's not just a manager but a friend, going the extra mile to make our guests feel at home when we can't be there. Pacaso has truly been a game-changer. It just makes sense for us. It has forced us to take meaningful vacations together as a family. We're invested in this house for the long term, envisioning years of enjoyment and even the possibility of future generations creating memories here. It's the perfect fit for where we are in life right now, and I have zero regrets about our Pacaso investment.
