Park City Real Estate - Can you walk to skiing from that home or condo that is advertised as "Walking Distance To Skiing?"

Is ski access a major priority for you in your real estate search?  Obviously, direct ski in, ski out access is the best possible scenario.  However, if your search is price-point driven, you may find some great condominium projects and homes that are truly a short walk to skiing- at a lower price point. 

At Deer Valley, The Canyons Village, and at the main base area of Park City, there are many locations that are just off the mountain, and are legitimately within walking distance.  “Walking distance” is a bit subjective, and as a Realtor, I always consider who is doing the walking – kids, teens, adults?  We certainly don’t want…

Canyons Real Estate- Times Have Changed

      

Vail took over operation of the Canyons in May 2013, and immediately started adding improvements on the ski area, and in the base village.  Vail also acquired Park City Mountain Resort in September 2014, and has now connected the two ski areas, creating the largest ski area in the United States.  As a base area, The Canyons now has it’s own, stand alone identity- visitors and owners can have a complete vacation experience at the Canyons.   
When we moved to Park City in 1981, The Canyons was Parkwest.  Best case, Parkwest ski area was known locally for fewer crowds, and a more rustic experience.  To me, Parkwest mostly was a smaller mountain, old chairlifts, and low elevation terrain.  Parkwest briefly…

Are building costs rising?  How much per square foot do people expect to spend on new construction?  

The Park City and Deer Valley real estate market has become more competitive for buyers in the last few years.  When faced with limited choices of existing homes, building a new home can sometimes be a good option.  As a Park City Realtor, my clients sometimes ask:  Is there more value in purchasing an existing home, or vacant lot and building a new home?  I am also asked about the approximate costs to build a home in Park City and Deer Valley.  

The decision making process is difficult- and even if, on paper, there appears to be value in building, there are certainly many other issues to consider.  I'm not a contractor, and when clients ask about…

Real Estate In Park City- Future Growth

The Park Record has just published their 2015 issue of Mile Post.  Included in the Mile Post are several interesting articles, statistics and projections regarding our community and surrounding areas throughout Summit County.

Real Estate values in Park City and surrounding neighborhoods have recovered greatly since the market downturn.  Real Estate prices in neighboring Wasatch County have also seen an increase.   Popular communities in Wasatch County – just a few minutes from Park City have driven prices higher – some of these projects were scrapped during the recession, and now the current owners/developers can’t put up units fast enough to meet demand.
