Winter has returned to the northwest Colorado Rockies today with dark and snowy skies. This turnaround from the warm and sometimes rainy weather we’ve had the past week should make the 8,400 + skiers coming in on Saturday to the Yampa Valley Regional Airport happy. That will be a record number of en/deplanements to the airport since it opened in the 1960’s.
When you do good business, word gets around. And that statement is no more evident than what happened today, as our efforts at Buyer’s Resource have been recognized by a national newspaper, The New York Times!
An article published today regarding the luxury real estate market included quotes from myself along with one of my clients, Sutton Hamlin. If you would like to read the article, here is the link:

The luxury Steamboat condominium property Sutton purchased into is Christie Club. Christie Club owners enjoy one of the best ski-in, ski-out locations in Steamboat. Combine that location with excellent guest services and amenities, and you can see why Ms. Hamlin is very pleased with her purchase.
Incidentally, Christie Club just happens to have one of the best deals right now for a slopeside luxury condo. It is a two bedroom, two bath, professionally decorated residence consisting of over 1600 square feet and overlooks the Steamboat Ski Area. Christie Club has a year-round shuttle and picks owners up at the Hayden and Steamboat airports, as well as a shuttle to town, the grocery stores, or anywhere else an owner or guest has a hankering to explore. Owners also enjoy a Members’ lounge, ski storage, heated outdoor pool and spa, concierge, valet parking, and world-class service. When purchasing a Christie Club condo, owners also have membership to The Registry Club, a vacation home exchange network with other luxury residences around the world. And when you’re not here being pampered, you can benefit from the excellent rental income a premier slopeside residence provides.
This Steamboat condo is listed at only $1,075,000, or $665 per square foot. This is an excellent buy. Other slopeside condominiums average $893 per square foot, and most of those listed are much older than Christie Club, which was built in 2002.
If you are interested in receiving a “Cash Flow Analysis” of this property to see how affordable it can be, as well as additional information on why we feel this property is such a great deal, please let us know. It financially outperforms all other properties in our analysis, and all of the owners that we have assisted in purchasing in this property have been extremely pleased with their decision.
