How It Works

There are two levels of fractional ownership and three different categories:

Level

Full: 2 weeks every year (1 in the summer and 1 in the winter)

Split: 1 week every year (alternates between summer and winter)

Category

Regular: Weeks rotate through the entire year

Deluxe: Summer week only rotates in July & August

Shoulder: Summer week rotates from April-September excluding July & August

No. In Marble Canyon you are entering a co-ownership agreement which means you are becoming a fractional owner of a specific vacation home, not leasing time at a resort. Purchasing an undivided deeded interest in the property gives you ownership of 1/26 or 1/52 of the entire unit and its chattels. Like any real estate investment, that equity is subject to appreciation. That means as the market prices in the area increase, so too does your investment. With this investment: you can sell your equity, bequeath it, or transfer ownership to your children. There is no threat of lease retirement, it is yours until you decide to take one of the aforementioned actions. On the other hand, a timeshare purchase provides you an annual vacation, not lifelong equity. Benefits come in the form of access to exotic sites around the world and, depending on where you, are a low buy-in with high annual maintenance fees. Typically, your purchase price entitles you to holidays for a specified time (i.e. 40 years). Most timeshares let you sell or transfer your rights. However, because timeshares become less valuable with each passing year, their resale value is typically very low.

Absolutely! Many corporations have purchased at Marble Canyon for a wide variety of reasons; financial, employee-based, customer relationship management, etc.

Yes. In fact, a number of our owners have made the plunge with friends or with extended family members. We will discuss with your lawyer how you’d like your names to appear on title.

Your property, along with 21 other properties in Marble Canyon, are managed and maintained by Fairmont Creek.

No. The revenue generated from the time you own is not shared. There is a 25% management fee charged on the gross revenue for the work done by Fairmont Creek. Therefore, if we rent your week for $2,000 you are eligible for $1,500. This money can be sent to you in a cheque or kept in-house and used towards future maintenance fee payments for your ownership.
