WHAT SHOULD I BUY?

Whether it’s the convenience of ski-in ski-out vacation home or the size and privacy of a Vail or Beaver Creek house, we can help you understand what Vail Valley real estate will best meet your stated lifestyle and investment criteria.

• Strategic positioning and an understanding of the macroeconomic drivers affecting each and every property candidate is the first and most important step in buying Vail real estate. Why? Because a misguided strategy perfectly executed still produces a misguided result!
• When will you be here? How long will you stay? Will you be a vacationer, semiretired, or do you have eventual plans to become a full-time resident? These are just some of the questions to be considered. A general rule of thumb is, the shorter your stays, the more proximity to the activity you are here for becomes important.
• Start by narrowing down your search with the type of property you are interested in and the location you like best. In other words, do you want a ski-in/ski-out condo near lifts, or are you looking for a larger residence? Eagle County is home to a variety of communities, so take your time exploring the area and get to know Bachelor Gulch, Lionshead, Vail Village, Beaver Creek, and other locations in the Vail Valley and find what feels most comfortable.
• And keep in mind, you can always “trade up” later. After all, selecting that just-right residence can be a daunting task. So, take your time and consider your intended use before making any binding decisions.

BECAUSE IT’S NOT ONLY A HOME … IT’S AN INVESTMENT
