Investors Are Buying Ski Condos Because Resort Area Property Appreciates

By Adriana J. Noton

The words ski condos evokes a collection of positive memories for a lot of people who remember family outings, college parties, or even a honeymoon. Nothing brings people together like a snow vacation where kids and adults alike can frolic in a winter wonderland. A vacation in the snow is a perfect way to spend the thanksgiving or Christmas holiday.

A mountain resort community is a great place to own property because one can use the property year round or rent the property out and create a steady flow of positive cash flow. In the summer, when there is no snow on the ground to snowboard on, there is still a lot to do mountain resort communities. There is hiking, camping, fishing, and water skiing, to keep the most ardent outdoor enthusiast, occupied.

Mountain communities are protected by land use controls, environmental groups, and water shed rights, that help keep the resorts in pristine condition. Such land use controls protect the communities from over development and the pollution that over development brings. Resort towns keep their quaint village like appeal because of government regulation which helps preserve land value.

Most resort towns are run by corporations and not by mom and pop businesses as in the past. This means that there is more quality control involved and everything from chair lifts to restaurants are more customer oriented than in the past. When the town is being run as a professional business, the surrounding land is going to appreciate in value.

Resort towns today attract a more affluent clientele because resort towns provide top notch service which means that the resort towns are not subject to down times throughout the year as they once were when mom and pop enterprises ran the towns. Since the resorts towns are not affected by recessions or economic down times, property values tend to appreciate. The most important aspect of any type of real estate investment is land value appreciation.

Mountain resorts are not just for those who go skiing but are for those who love to snow board. People who enjoy snow boarding are those who also enjoy ocean surfing because snow boarding is a lot like ocean surfing. Snow boarding, like ocean surfing looks easy, but takes practice before mastering. But, anyone with basic athletic ability can learn how to ride their snow board down the snow slopes. The most important element of good snow boarding is balance because one must maintain a balanced center of gravity in order to maintain control.

Good snow boarders have ample endurance because it takes endurance and leg strength to ride the snow board down the hill and climb up for another run down the hill. Snow boarding is certainly great exercise. Advanced snow boarders are able to launch themselves into the air and turn in the air and land flat on the snow slopes.

Mountain resorts offer visitors and land owners the chance to participate in many recreational activities. Ski condos are a great real estate investment because mountain resort property tends to appreciate in value. Mountain resorts, as a business, attract affluent clientele and are generally recession free.
