In this interview, Carlos Gómez, CEO of Vivla and former Google employee, talks with Jose Pons, CEO of Bonnin Sanso, about their innovative co-ownership project.
After leaving Google, Carlos, alongside pursuing other successful projects and ventures, founded VIVLA, which he affectionately refers to as his “baby.” The concept originated from market research conducted post-pandemic, which revealed a rising interest in co-ownership as a solution for accessing distinctive vacation homes in exclusive locations such as Menorca.
VIVLA provides a flexible model for purchasing a holiday home, allowing you to own one or more shares and enjoy the property without the obligations associated with traditional ownership. Unlike previous models, VIVLA is built on a premium 5-star service, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience from day one. With VIVLA, you retain full ownership throughout.
In Menorca, there are currently four properties using this model, backed by Bonnin Sanso, a leading real estate group with over 35 years of expertise. The swift success of the Sa Llosa Homes in Son Parc, where all eight shares sold quickly, led to the acquisition of a second unit in this exclusive new development. Furthermore, exceptional properties are also available under this model at Predio Sa Fua – Binisafua Rotters and Coves Noves.
Carlos emphasizes that VIVLA is perfect for families who seek flexibility and wish to invest in real estate without being committed to a single location. The model includes a return option within the first year if it does not meet expectations, reflecting their confidence in the offering. Furthermore, it offers opportunities for resale at any time or for exchanging usage with other destinations.
In only two years, VIVLA has successfully executed 100 transactions across 9 destinations and maintains a customer satisfaction rate exceeding 90%. This groundbreaking model is clearly revolutionising the real estate market.
