The August Ethos

We love meaningful holidays, endless travel, beautiful homes and quality time with family and friends. Which is why we founded August.

Our goal is to make the experience of owning a second home as hassle-free and enjoyable as possible, which is how we became the pioneer of luxury co-ownership across Europe. Our curated collections can take time to deliver because we care about every aspect of the process, from finding the perfect homes in the ideal locations to renovating and interior designing to meticulously high standards. We deliver excellence in everything we do and make sure that every home we create is the result of a true labour of love.

We are a global homeowner community that comes together to celebrate unique real estate. Our families make memories while enjoying the charming countryside of Provence, the picturesque beaches of the Mallorcan coast and the idyllic streets of Tuscany, sharing their experiences and recommendations as they go.

Our most frequently asked questions
How do I get the weeks I want?

Our booking system is designed in such a way as to benefit both long-term planners and those who prefer last-minute spontaneous holidays.

It is a point based system, where weeks have been divided into four categories: from super peak to low season weeks. A week during the super peak season costs more points than a week in low season.

All home-owners get the same number of points per one share they own and are free to book whichever weeks they want every year. If you and your family decided to only book during super peak season you will have access to 7 weeks of holidays per year. If you only book during low season you and your family will have up to 12 to 19 weeks of holiday available.

We expect that the average use will be 8-10 weeks per family per year with one share.

Your points cannot be transferred to the next year. Points will expire if you have outstanding points at the end of the year.

Hear our CEO, Melie, show how the booking system works.

How do I sell my share?

You can find a buyer yourself or ask August to do it for you - or combine the two. If you find the buyer yourself, you will only pay the trading costs and August’s administration fee.

The selling price is set by you and in dialogue with August. We have a liquid secondary market, with over 15 resales fully completed. 90% of these resales were people upgrading or changing to another collection to better suit their lifestyle.

We expect to always have a 'waitlist' of buyers waiting to enter a new collection, as access to an existing collection has the benefit of immediate use and therefore adds a premium to the price of your share.

How is it different from a timeshare?

August is fundamentally different to a timeshare. With August, you become a co-owner of multiple homes through a corporate entity. In a timeshare, you typically purchase the right to use one dwelling for a specific period. You can only exchange your weeks if the person renting the weeks you are interested in is willing to exchange their weeks with you. It is extremely hard to sell a timeshare as you need to find someone interested in both the same location and the exact same weeks that you have.

With August, you own not one but five properties, and it is not tied to any particular weeks. Most importantly, in a typical timeshare, once all the shares have been sold the property developer has no incentive to find new potential buyers and you are left alone to find a potential buyer for your share. On the contrary, August will assist in finding a buyer for your share when you choose. Typically we have seen re-sales occur in a matter of days as demand for completed collections is high. All those who have sold a share to date have done so to move to another collection that they choose as opposed to exit.
