Perhaps more suited to families, is the Crystal villa Fund which will purchase six spacious residences across the globe in Andalucía, Antigua, Provence, Bodrum, the Algarve and Marrakech all with private pools, a Housekeeper/Cook and maid service. Investment here is from £115,000 and affords owners up to 3 weeks annual usage of the four to five bedroom homes. This Fund will operate for seven years, at the end of which, as with the Capital Fund, all properties will be sold and profits shared amongst owners. Newest to launch, and appealing to those wanting more of an investment-focused purchase, are the London and Manhattan Funds. These are a solution for those who are eager to participate in future capital gain in two of the world’s most successful cities, but want occasional use of a property in each locale. Paris In London, four apartments will be purchased across the city in locations such as Kensington, Chelsea, Westminster and Covent Garden and investment for a Founder’s Half Unit is £117,500. For this, annual usage will be an average of ten nights over the course of the ten year life of the Fund. The Manhattan Fund will be very similar in format but with investment from $167,500, an average of 10 nights use per year and apartments purchased in Midtown, Upper East Side and Tribeca. With all Funds, unused nights can be rolled over to the following year and all homes may be lent to friends and family. Importantly, any investor in any Fund can use their Rocksure Pounds to secure stays in properties outside of their specific Fund portfolio; a veritable golden ticket allowing them to travel and entertain around the world. Algarve With over eight years of experience behind them, a total investment to date of over $30 million and at least 150 British and international investors, Rocksure is a proven leader in its field. Moreover, as properties are only ever purchased with direct capital, investors are protected from the risks associated with borrowing. Set up by David Rogers, a former COO of Abercrombie & Kent and the founder of Supertravel, the company is in the hands of a luxury travel and property expert with a wealth of experience that has allowed him to craft an ownership model that is both unique and inspiring.
