North America is home to numerous world
class ski and mountain resorts. In the US 39 states hold several hundred
mountain and ski resorts, while Canada has around 60 ski resorts. Given
the vast choice of location and lower property prices than in Europe - a
3 bed ski chalet near Whistler in Canada can be acquired for less than
£120,000 GBP / 175,000 Euros / $220,000 USD - buying ski properties in
North America makes a lot of financial sense.
USA Ski Properties
From Alaska in the far Northwest of the
United States to Rhode Island in the Northeast, there are literally
hundreds of opportunities to buy ski chalets, ski condos and luxury ski
homes in the US.
Starting on the West Coast of the US the states of Alaska, Washington,
Oregon, California and Nevada all offer mountain and ski resorts in
which ski real estate can be purchased. Naturally, the better known
resorts such as Lake Tahoe in Northern California command the highest
prices.
Moving inland to the mammoth Rocky Mountains the US states of Montana,
Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona provide ski real
estate investment opportunities in abundance.
In the Midwest region, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota,
Missouri, Ohio, South Dakota, North Dakota and Wisconsin are great
places to find ski properties in the USA, while all the US States that
lay claim to the Appalachian Mountains in the East have ski property
investment opportunities too.
Canada Ski Properties
Canada's climate is well suited to winter
sports. Snow lies in some parts of Canada all year round. The ski season
is long too, lasting from October/November through to May/June. Some
Canadian ski resorts even have summer skiing on offer, as well as a
wealth of summer mountain activities. With so much going on all year
round at Canada's mountain and ski resorts, Canadian ski properties have
the potential to produce a steady rental income for ski property owners.
