The Paris Pied-à-Terre fractional residence club program offers fully serviced one, two and three bedroom Paris apartments. The apartments are scattered around some of Paris's choicest neighborhoods.

The club provides concierge services, pre-arrival grocery shopping, housekeeping, airport transfers and personal storage.

Pricing starts at E82,000 (US$113k) for a 1/12 share of a one bedroom apartment, and ownership is via a “US home owners association”.

Here's how the ownership works "Each share holder is entitled to four weeks each year. Two particular, consecutive weeks (The Primary Weeks) and two additional weeks chosen by each share holder annually, based upon a rotating priority system (The Flexible Weeks). Weeks can be lent or rented out. A particular owner may own more then one share."
