Fractional Ownership News
Fractional ownership of underground disaster shelters launched in California
Vivos, a Californian company is selling fractional ownership shares in a network of underground shelters designed to protect buyers from natural, man-made or even divine disasters.
The company is embarking on a marketing push as it says “there are now only 1,000 days remaining until the date that many believe the Mayan and Hopi Indians predicted the world will end - December 21, 2012.”
The $200 million project will accommodate up to 4,000 people, in as many as 20 shelters, each strategically located within 150 to 200 miles of a major US city. Robert Vicino, founder of Vivos said: "The Vivos complexes are deep-underground, airtight, fully self-contained blast proof shelters, designed to survive virtually any catastrophe or threat scenario including: natural disasters, a nuclear blast, chemical and biological weapons, or even widespread social anarchy."
Vivos' first nuclear blast shelter is located near Barstow, California, halfway between Los Angeles and Las Vegas, and has already received over a thousand applications for membership from people greatly concerned about their families' survival, according to the company.
It says each Vivos shelter complex provides for up to one year of autonomous shelter for 200 people, complete with all necessities, including food, fuel, water, clothing, medical supplies, and security devices in a multi-level, 20,000 square foot hardened shelter, built 30 feet underground.
At a cost of over $10 million per facility, the company is financing the development through deeded co-ownership, wherein each owner has an undivided interest. "These tenant-in-common interests are fully transferable, may be willed to your heirs, or sold anytime in the future," advised Vicino who is also the president of Fractional Villas, a real estate company offering fractional ownership of high-end resort homes. "Fractional ownership makes Vivos affordable to virtually anyone who wants a survival solution for themselves and their loved ones," he added.
Vivos says it has “priced and prepared their survival shelters for the average person to ride out potential catastrophic events, whether they are the proverbial end times, Armageddon, predicted 2012 threat scenarios, the Apophis asteroid that is due to make a very close call to the Earth in 2029 and again in 2036, or whatever nature, or mankind can create.”
“Like Noah's Ark, Vivos will select a wide cross-section of people of all ages, ethnicities, religious beliefs, professions and skills, with a goal to create each community representing as many talents as possible,” says Vivos. Vicino said: "We want as much diversity and skills as possible to support one another. 200 doctors and no plumbers could be a real disaster."
