MyHomes featured in French Property News

British property magazine French Property News has published an in-depth feature on MyHomes and the Wright family’s holiday home in Provence, France. The article explores how shared holiday home ownership allowed the family to retain their connection to a cherished property while sharing the costs and responsibilities of ownership.

For more than 20 years, the Wright family’s house in Provence was a gathering place for three generations. But as maintenance, running costs and the practical demands of owning a holiday home abroad became increasingly difficult to manage, the family faced a decision about its future.

Rather than saying goodbye to the property, they found another way forward. The house was sold to MyHomes and became part of its collection of shared holiday homes in Europe. The family, meanwhile, became co-owners, allowing them to continue spending holidays in a place that holds so many memories.

A new perspective on holiday home ownership in France

The feature, titled A family home that lives on, appears in French Property News, a British magazine specialising in French property and lifestyle. It follows earlier coverage of the family’s story in several British media outlets, including The Times.

For readers who already own a holiday home in France, the story raises a particularly relevant question: What happens when the emotional value of a property remains strong, but the practical and financial responsibilities of owning it outright no longer fit the family’s needs?

MyHomes offers an alternative approach to holiday home ownership, bringing families together as co-owners of carefully selected properties across Europe. For existing property owners, the Wright family’s story illustrates how this model can also offer a way to preserve a lasting connection to a much-loved home.

Instead of having to choose between selling a property and retaining full responsibility for it, shared ownership can provide a different way forward.
