MEMBER FAQ
-
Membership is a free, no-obligation way for prospective co-owners to explore luxury property ownership at a fraction of the cost—without the complexities of full ownership.
A member becomes a co-owner by purchasing one or more ownership interests in a specific property, held through a limited partnership managed by Equiti Capital. Co-owners enjoy usage rights to their residence and may also exchange stays within the portfolio, subject to availability.
-
Following the current introductory period, new members may join by referral from existing members, company representatives, or affiliated real estate agents. All members must agree to The Sanctuary Collection’s code of conduct to ensure alignment with the community’s values and confirm investment eligibility.
-
Yes, a limited number of overseas residents can participate in each limited partnership and become a co-owner.
-
All registered members are notified when a property meets our selection criteria. Detailed information is available through the Members Zone, including access to the property’s offering memorandum and governing documents. Participation in the limited partnership is offered on a first-come, first-served basis.
-
A 1/10th ownership interest (share) is expected to start at around $750,000, depending on the property's location, specifications, and amenities. Each 1/10th share provides the right to enjoy the property for five weeks per year. Members may purchase multiple shares, subject to availability.
-
The property is owned through a dedicated special-purpose Limited Partnership (LP) managed by Equiti Capital. Co-owners participate as limited partners, collectively holding 99% of the LP. These ownership interests entitle each limited partner to usage rights, priority return of capital, and a share of profits, as outlined in the property’s offering memorandum. Equiti Capital serves as the general partner, holding a 1% interest and receiving a share of profits only after the limited partners' capital has been fully repaid.
-
Our handpicked interior designers meticulously curate and furnish your home, attending to every detail with expert care—at no additional cost to you. This process begins immediately after the property is purchased and typically takes 4 to 8 weeks. Once complete, the five-year occupancy period officially begins.
-
Equiti Properties oversees day-to-day operations, managing property maintenance, coordinating services, and paying utilities on behalf of the co-owners.
-
Beyond shared ownership in a luxury property, co-owners enjoy a curated lifestyle experience centered on comfort, convenience, and connection. Core benefits include access to a portfolio of premium properties, personalised concierge services, immersive local experiences, and priority booking privileges.
Co-owners may also opt into elevated services such as a private chef, daily housekeeping, and a luxury vehicle—ensuring every stay feels effortlessly refined. In addition, co-ownership connects you to an exclusive community of individuals who value quality, privacy, and exceptional living.
-
A monthly fee is required to cover operating costs such as cleaning services, utilities, maintenance, and property management. All fees are transparently detailed in the property’s offering memorandum.
-
If forecast monthly fees fall short of actual expenses, the difference is allocated among co-owners proportionally, based on their ownership interest.
-
There are no additional fees for staying during your allocated weeks.
-
Weeks are selected annually by co-owners in the order of their original commitment to purchase. The first co-owner to commit selects first in the initial year, the second selects first in year two, the third in year three, and so on through year five. While weeks are assigned consecutively, they can be exchanged with other co-owners or swapped for stays at other properties in the portfolio, subject to availability.
-
You may exchange your weeks with other co-owners at the same property or within the broader property portfolio, depending on availability.
-
The remaining two weeks each year are reserved for cleaning, upkeep, and scheduled property maintenance to ensure a consistently high standard.
-
Properties are intended exclusively for the personal use of co-owners and are not available for short-term rental.
-
Starting with the acquisition of two properties in 2025, Equiti Group plans to build a portfolio of at least fifteen properties across New Zealand over the next 3-4 years, with expansion into Australia and the United States also underway during this period. The portfolio will feature a mix of recently completed homes and may include new developments led by Equiti Build.
-
While co-owners can benefit from capital appreciation when the property is sold, the Sanctuary Collection is currently tailored for individuals who prioritise exceptional lifestyle experiences and exclusive access over financial return. New developments led by Equiti Build, however, are specifically designed for investors who are also seeking the lifestyle benefits, with strong returns generated through property development and future sales.
-

-
Co-owners have the flexibility to offer their interest for sale through Equiti Capital after 12 months, at the then-current market value of the property and subject to applicable fees.
-
Co-owners hold a right of first refusal, in the order of their original commitment to purchase, before the property is offered to the open market.
