You know, the economy is tough on everyone. The stimulus plan is questionable. Almost 10% of America is officially unemployed. Life is a downer. NOT!
Guess what? Life goes on and we can defeat the pessimissim. What really matters is what goes on in our heads. I just finished a day of phenominal skiing at Schweitzer Mountain and there is no way life can get any better. It's not just about skiing...skiing is just MY motivational tool. Find that tool and use it!
Skiing does take a financial commitment, but the benefits far outweigh the expense. ...but it is not just about skiing for a day. Right now, the opportunities to own your own place on the mountain can be a reality to those who never could entertain the concept. The current bad economy may be the only open window certain buyers will see for awhile. I have no idea how long these great prices and rates will last, but I do know they are here now.
Buying a vacation ski home, obviously, is not for everyone...I'm talking expendable income here. ...but I'm not talking about the type of income required two years ago for the same investment. You "ski-bums" out there who never thought this was attainable, please, take another look! This is a fleeting window and the time is now.
It is the people with a little money, a secure job and with good credit who can get remarkable deals RIGHT NOW! They will improve their investment portfolios and help stimulate the economy at the same time.
Why is it that some people pounce on these opportunites while most people, who could, don't? I guess I'm just taking on the responsibility of "getting it out there". We need to all save money and build up the economy, but when prices are like this, saving via the the vehicle of a strong "real estate investment" is a very good way to go.
Plus, I'm coming off an endorphine skiers' high, so thanks for bearing with me. Totally natural, that's me. Oh, and one more plug...take a look at www.salishanpoint.com Here in Sandpoint, Idaho, your investment opportunity does not end at Schweitzer Mountain. We've got a lake "to die for".
