Matt Krieger's family had tried everything. Timeshare memberships. Exclusive Resorts through his parents. Inspirato. Over time, every option stopped working.
"We had gotten to two or three resorts that we loved... those resorts started putting restrictions on," Matt explains. His parents monopolized their Exclusive Resort allocation. Inspirato's evolved offerings "just didn't make as much sense" anymore.
The family faced a difficult choice: compromise on vacation quality, downgrade expectations, or explore entirely new approaches.
Finding Fractional Ownership
While researching alternatives, Matt discovered fractional ownership. The concept aligned with what his family actually needed: luxury access without full ownership burdens, portfolio diversity across multiple properties, and straightforward pricing.
GoForth emerged as the superior option. Matt noted that alternative companies had concerning online reviews, lower-quality properties, and limited portfolio diversity — factors crucial for a family valuing varied destinations.
The Scottsdale Decision
The Kriegers initially explored Costa Rica but ultimately purchased a fractional share in Scottsdale, Arizona. This location held personal significance: Matt had visited the area annually for 15 years with his father and brothers.
GoForth's willingness to fly Matt's wife and two children for property preview visits proved instrumental. That's the discovery trip in action — no pressure, just clarity.
Building Trust Through Transparency
What distinguished GoForth was its human-centered approach. Adam conducted face-to-face meetings and explicitly stated: "If this isn't for you, then don't feel like you have to do this."
The closing process proved straightforward. Their property manager Marian continued providing personalized service throughout ownership. This is what happens when a company puts others first — not as a slogan, but as an operating principle.
A Lifestyle Investment
Matt emphasizes their perspective clearly: "We don't look at this as an investment at all. For us, it was really about vacationing."
Having observed his parents' second-home ownership challenges, Matt valued GoForth's model — enabling luxury experiences without maintenance headaches, property management stress, and capital constraints.
Looking Forward
The Kriegers have already incorporated their Scottsdale property into family traditions, planning Thanksgiving visits. Their 17-year-old son, potentially attending college nearby, spotted additional advantages.
They're exploring GoForth's broader portfolio for future experiences. Matt told Adam: "There's a 10-year lifespan with this... we'll be talking again in 10 years."
"I think we would be huge advocates to anybody that's looking to do this. I think this is a really smart way to go about this."
