In recent years, the concept of bare ownership has attracted growing interest, both among property owners looking for new ways to manage their assets and among investors seeking long-term opportunities. This method allows different needs to be reconciled: on one hand, it provides immediate liquidity to the seller; on the other, it allows the buyer to access a property at a lower price compared to full ownership. In this guide, we analyze in detail what bare ownership is, the advantages it offers for both sellers and buyers, how its value is calculated, and which aspects should be considered before proceeding.
