I have heard Pacaso. A month or two back i saw a large ad in the Sunday paper, not sure if it was the NYT, or perhaps the San Jose Mercury. I was intrigued and checked out their website. My brother in law owns a fractional, and i though this was a cool idea with Pacaso.

They are spending lots on advertising, as ever since i visited the website my Facebook and YouTube feeds are full of their ads....

After reading the website, i decided it wasn't right for us right now, so i didn't go beyond looking at the webpage...

I think the local opposition is a bit irrational, but at the same time it would make me thing twice about buying into a Pacaso home, Who wants to try and relax at a vacation home, and be subjected to jeers and opposition from your neighbors..

For what its worth Pacaso had another full page ad in the Sunday New York Times. Apparently the local objections have not caused them to back-off on the marketing at all..
