You can create a base class with your common atributes from which other classes inherits.

Sample code:

<code>Public Class BaseClass


    Private _name As String
    Public Property Name() As String
        Get
            Return _name
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As String)
            _name = value
        End Set
    End Property



    Sub New()

    End Sub

End Class


Public Class People
    Inherits BaseClass

    Sub New()

    End Sub

End Class</code>
