13x1303 - Arizona Couple Seek a Vacation Home on the Turks and Caicos Islands

April 11, 2010

Christopher has always wanted to live in the Caribbean, but he can't get his wife Tracy to make such a big commitment and leave their Mesa, Arizona home for good. So, they split the difference and decided to buy a vacation home on the Turks and Caicos Islands. The couple is looking into a Fractional Ownership home, which offers them the opportunity to share the ownership of a multi-million dollar home. It also means they could only stay for a specific number of weeks per year, perfect for Tracy. Christopher would still like to have the option of living in the home full time. Elite Home Destinations' Bill Bisanz steps in to help them decide if they should invest in a fractional or full ownership. Christopher and Tracy have a budget of ,000 for a home that's a fractional and .5 million for one that they can own fully. They check out two fractionals: one that is available for ,000 and offers an 8 week stay and the other is priced at ,000 for a 10 week stay.
