About Us
"This whole thing just makes sense to us!"
We are Shaun and Amanda, a New Zealand based couple that first and foremost, make living a life full of experiences an absolute priority! We are big fans of fractional ownership of lifestyle assets and are veteran syndicators who, through experience, have a deep understand of what is required to setup and manage syndications. We have spent a lot of time as members of syndications and are all to aware of what does and doesn't work. We live the concept, to the extent we share a ride-on lawnmower, a hunting block, a fishing boat and a cruising yacht!! It just makes sense!
Over the last 10 years, syndication has allowed us to give ourselves, our kids, our friends and our extended families experiences that would otherwise be wildly unattainable. From cruising Fiji's Yasawa Islands on our own catamaran, to fishing and freediving through-out NZ on our own 150k+ alloy hard top or even guiding the kids onto their first game animal in our own hunting block. And we're not done yet!
Shaun has been some what obsessed with fractional ownership of lifestyle assets since the tender age of 17 years old (that was more than a few years ago!). While at high school in Wanaka, New Zealand, he found the perfect houseboat and after more research than is healthy, syndication was the obvious choice. He went about attempting to promote the concept and his first 'customers' (his parents) decided they wanted all the shares and bought the boat outright. With the appropriate teenage angst, he was wildly and ridiculously disappointed. Parties aboard eventually eased the pain!
Thankfully that wasn't his last foray into the world of fractional ownership. He has instigated and been a shareholder in a number of syndications over the last 20 years. There have been many lessons along the way, with the end result being developing into one of Australasia's foremost experts in fractional ownership and the syndication of lifestyle assets.
While AssetShare is a reasonably new company, its systems and foundations have been built on 20 plus years of experience and expert input from our software developers, accountants and lawyers.
