Now is a great time to consider buying your dream ski home or condo in the popular ski community of Park City Utah.  With the ski season here, sellers who are wanting to sell their ski property have them on the market to sell.  There is a great selection to choose from as well as a some great interest rates

Park City offers some great value for a ski community compared to other popular ski communities.  It continues to grow in popularity so buy now before it’s too late.  There are some great new ski condo projects in which flippers are trying to get out of their investment.  I see it as a great opportunity to pick up a great deal on a great property from those who need to get out of their flip.

Sunday, November 4th, 2007

Enjoy free parking at the Park City Ski Resorts which include Deer Valley Resort, Park City Mountain Resort & the Canyons Resort.  They all offer free parking in their parking lots.  I was recently working with some buyers who had asked me about it.  They indicated at the Vail Ski Resort it does cost about $25 per day to park in their parking lot so I thought it might be good to let people know that it is free at the ski resorts in Park City Utah.  Deer Valley Resort offers a free shuttle ride from the parking lot to their Snow Park Lodge as well as free ski storage. The Canyons Resort offers a free cabriolet ride from the parking lot to the Canyons Resort Village area.   The open air lot at Park City Mountain Resort is free and they do offer a paid parking area if you would like covered parking and a shorter walk to the lifts.

Park City Utah is a great place to own a ski condo.  Please visit Park City Ski Condos for Sale to search for all the condos that are for sale at the three Park City Utah ski resorts.

New construction resale condos at the Canyons Resort

Sunday, March 11th, 2007

       dev-silverado.jpg        house_inside.jpg

The new Silverado Condohotel Project at the Canyons Resort has finished and so condos are starting to close.  We are starting to see resale units hit the market starting at $249,900 for a studio.  There are also a few developer 2 bedroom units on the market as well.  The resales tend to be flexible in pricing whereas developer units aren’t (the price is the price). So if you are looking for a new construction ski condo at a ski resort then the Silverado project might be the place to consider.  These units come fully furnished and ready to place in a rental pool. 

These condos are a very short walk to the lifts and offer a great value for brand new construction in a ski resort village environment.

I have rental projections from one of the property management companies for these units so please contact Julie at 435-513-2848 or email Julie at julie@bestskiproperty.com so I can pass on the info to you.

Julie Olsen also offers a great Buyer Incentive Program to her buyer clients.  Contact her at 435-513-2848 for details.

High End Resort Spa Planned for a New Condo Project at the Canyons Resort in Park City

Monday, October 16th, 2006

 

     istock_000000881956small.jpg

The other day, I had a conversation with one of the listing agents for the new Dakota Mountain Lodge Condohotel project at The Canyons Resort area in Park City Utah.  He informed me that the Golden Door Spa will be going into the Dakota Mountain Lodge.  There will also be a nice higher end restaurant which is yet to be determined.  The announcement for the Red Door Spa hasn’t gone public yet but I thought it would be a great heads up for my Park City Real Estate blog readers. 

There will be another release of reservations for this great condohotel development  some time in Novemeber.   So contact me soon if this development might interest you so I can help you get a reservation on this great pre-construction project that offers a lot of promise.

Also, the litigation involving the proposed Canyons Resort golf course may have been resolved so construction on the golf course should start in the Spring of 2007.  It will take about two years to complete once construction starts. The Dakota Mountain Lodge will be adjacent to portions of the golf course as well as the up and coming Frostwood Lift.  The Dakota Lodge will provide ski valet services to the lift for guests and owners. 

The Dakota Mountain Lodge will be a great four seasons destination in the future with a fantastic resort spa, golfing, biking, hiking and world class skiing.  The first released units where running around $600/square foot and this next release should be slightly higher due to the Red Door Spa agreement that will be in place with this next release.  Currently the Park City Hotel condos are running around $1000/square foot and the Dakota Mountain Lodge in the future should rival the Park City Hotel with all the amenities it will have.  Now is the time to buy in the early phases for such a promising property investment.  It will require only a 10% deposit till the project is completed.

Contact me today so that we can get the paperwork ready for the next release of units.  With each new release the price will go up so don’t wait and call me today at 435-513-2848.
