Planner vs. Opportunist: Designing Your Perfect Calendar

In fractional real estate, the most valuable asset isn't the granite countertop; it's the Calendar.

How you access your property determines whether it feels like a second home or a logistical headache. Most platforms force you into a "one-size-fits-all" model. Covest does not.

We understand that sophisticated investors fall into two distinct psychological profiles: The Planner and The Opportunist. Neither is wrong, but they require very different algorithms.

---

Profile A: The Planner (Notarized Fixed Weeks)

• The Persona: You have school-aged children. You run a business with set quarterly board meetings. Your life is governed by a rigid schedule.
• The Need: Predictability. You want to know that every single year, December 20th to January 3rd is yours.
• The Solution: We notarize specific weeks into your deed.

Profile B: The Opportunist (Randomized Raffle)

• The Persona: You are semi-retired or work remotely. You have flexibility. You value fairness and variety.
• The Need: Equity. You don't want to overpay for "Christmas" if you are just as happy going in March.
• The Solution: The Covest Snake Draft.

How the Raffle Works:

• The Draft: Every September, we hold a digital "Season Selection Draft."
• The Algorithm: We use a rotating "Snake Draft" order. Over a 5-year cycle, every owner gets statistically equal access.

The "Stay-or-Rent" Toggle

Regardless of the model you choose, life happens. This is where the Covest Rental Pool activates.

We enforce a 90-Day Declaration Rule:

1. Declare: 90 days before your scheduled week, you must toggle "Stay" or "Rent".
2. Monetize: If you toggle "Rent," your week is seamlessly handed off to our ISO-compliant property manager.
3. Yield: The net income is credited directly to your account.
