PHOENIX (AZFamily) — On this week’s episode of “On Your Side: The Home Edition,” host Susan Campbell learns about fractional ownership, tours a hilltop vacation home in Carefree and sees what $500,000 can buy in a 55+ community in the West Valley.
Susan talks with Valley real estate broker Mark McCloskey about fractional ownership of a home. It’s still relatively rare but becoming more common, and while it may sound a lot like a timeshare, McCloskey says there are fundamental differences that might make it a much smarter investment.
Then McCloskey takes us on a tour of a Carefree home with fractional ownership available. It’s a big, beautifully designed hilltop home in scenic Carefree. The house is valued at $4.4 million … but a one-eighth share will cost you $550,000.

“On Your Side: The Home Edition” airs every Friday at 7pm on Arizona’s Family’s streaming sites and on YouTube. Episodes are also available to view on-demand.
