Top 8 Reasons to Buy Vacation Property in Steamboat Springs

By
Real Estate Agent with Colorado Group Realty, LLC

1. Steamboat Springs, CO is a world-class resort town with a friendly, western feel. It is a real town, with real people, which is what people love about it. 

2. Our ski mountain is one of the best in Colorado, and people love coming back here because we're a small town with a big heart

3.We have hot springs, bike paths, fine dining, cattle drives, and great schools...and no lift lines because the nearest Interstate highway is 90 miles away.

4.We are one of the least expensive (aka undervalued) resorts in the West.  You can get a great place for the same price as other resorts' dumpy condos next to the freeway.

5. Intrawest bought our ski mountain in 2006 and has been making great changes on the mountain.  Our base area will be scraped and re-built with a pedestrian-friendly village, and they've already installed new lifts and better slopes. 

6. Our snow making is now state of the art, but we really don't need that, because our Champagne Powder is the best snow in Colorado!

7. Steamboat Springs has been mentioned in the Wall Street Journal and Robb Report as being THE place to purchase real estate.

8. You can go to SteamboatHomeSales.com to read the articles and get TONS of information on Steamboat Springs real estate and community news (and work with a Realtor who will listen to you)

I lived in Steamboat in 2003-2004 -- haven't been back since and am looking forward to seeing all the changes at the Mountain! I bought and flipped two Longview duplexes - one for $320k and one for $420k... Sure wish I'd HELD onto them!

There are two listed now--one for $699,000 and the other is $695,000.  You won't believe the changes when you get here.  When you do, look me up and we'll make a few runs or go for coffee if you have time.  I've followed your blog here on AR and enjoyed it.

Holy Moly... I bought the VERY FIRST one sold for $279,900! I thought I was making a killing selling it for $320k. I will definitely look you up!
