Canyons/Solitude Tram update

Excerpts from the Park Record article:

Proponents of the proposed SkiLink went to Washington, D.C., this week to begin laying the groundwork for a gondola that would link Canyons ski resort with Solitude.


Meanwhile, on the Utah home front, opponents of the project have been mustering their own forces and are characterizing the project as a potential environmental catastrophe.

Representatives of the ski industry have long argued that connecting the area's resorts would be a boon to tourism and the state's economy. In this case, they also suggest the link could reduce traffic in Big Cottonwood Canyon and over Parley's Summit. Environmentalists, though, say it would open up the remaining backcountry to development and destroy a vital watershed.

But what if the two sides were able to negotiate a compromise, one that could actually reduce traffic and offer skiers

I believe this tram would only help Park City's economy by making our resorts even more desirable by linking with the other side of the Wasatch Mountains.

Octoberfest and beautiful fall color at Snowbird

Today was a fall color capturing day and some great fun at Snowbird's Octoberfest. Great fun - We toured the market place, ate some great bratwurst and enjoyed the gorgeous fall color.
See the short video below for the Alpenhorn concert at the top of the Tram. Very cool.

Octoberfest was busy today! The picture below was taken from the Chicadee lift.


Pic looking toward the Salt Lake valley from top of Snowbird.

The most exciting part of the day was not caught on film...when I went head over bull on the mechanical bull ride! I have heard a rumor that there is a video out there somewhere...

Beautiful valley on the way to Midway via Brighton.

The Canyons and Solitude to connect via Tram

Breaking news! The Canyons and Solitude will connect via tram in the future. The two resorts will be the first to cross the divide between the Wasatch front and the Wasatch back. More details to follow in the coming weeks.

The 2 resorts would have a reciprocal lift ticket agreement. One big benefit is the reduced traffic congestion for Big Cottonwood Canyon.

The Canyons Golf Course progress

The Canyons... Park City's sleeper in my opinion. This resort is poised to take the others down!
And, they have deep pockets to make it happen.

Take a look at the pictures of the Canyons golf course underway:


I know, you can't see much. The guards were shooing me away as I tried to capture a few pics. The good news is things are starting to move forward.

Ok, let's go over it again: Fabulous skiing in Park City, Utah, 30 minutes from SLC airport, golf course, new restaurants, new lifts what else could you want?

Fabulous Bank-Owned Promontory Ranch home successfully closed!

Bank owned properties are a challenge. Yes, the prices can be a screaming deal, but there are lots of hoops to jump through. If you have the stomach for it, I say go for it! Get your ducks in a row first, then jump in.

Right now, Promontory Ranch Club, a high end golf community in Park City, Utah has some great deals. The development went through a bankruptcy a while back and the community is still on the rebound. Homes that previously went in the $2 million plus range can now be picked up for just under 1Million. Gorgeous homes, great community, great amenities. The theory is once the economy changes and the market has recovered, these homes will be worth a heck of alot more than the buyers have paid. In the mean time, these buyers of the bank owned bargains will live in a gorgeous, high end home for half the price. Promontory is about 10 minutes from Park City Mountain, Deer Valley and The Canyons. These homes have some of the most fabulous views of all 3 resorts.



So, you write an offer and think long and hard about the price, the closing date and the rest of the terms that work for you and your situation. Usually the seller will respond and the negotiations begin. Bank owned properties are different. The bank required my seller to sign an addendum they create as a blanket document to cover all possibilities in all areas of the country. Seriously, why don't they just write their own contract? They completely blow out of the water all of your dates on the original offer - due diligence deadline, financing deadline etc. In this particular addendum they gave the buyer 10 days to get an inspection and 15 to get loan approved. Inspection, not a problem, but even with a well qualified buyer, full loan approval in 15 days is difficult.

Back are the days where the banks require your first born child to approve a loan. Lending institutions give a borrower a "conditional approval"  along with a list of additional documents they need to give full approval. No big deal, right? Wrong. In this particular case the list never ended. As soon as one required document was submitted, a request for something else would come. Luckily,  this buyer was super organized and had all of the needed documents available. It almost felt like the underwriter was trying to justify their job!

Bank owned properties can be a great way to go if you know what to expect. Don't expect the offer and negotiation process to be like a regular home purchase. Meet with a loan officer and get everything ready to go on that front before you go shopping, then be ready to pre-qualify with their required lending institution.  Next, go into the process with reasonable expectations about the price. Have your agent pull all the closed sales in that area. Banks aren't going to negotiate as much in an area with brisk sales. Figure they may not credit any money for repairs. Make sure you understand the bank addendum and the ramifications.

Park City ski home with Spectacular views!

Does your company need a corporate retreat? A ski propety to send your best employees as a reward?
This could be the home for you. I bet as a corporate retreat there are some write-offs there for you too.
How's that for a view? Pretty spectacular. You are seeing the Canyons directly and Park City Mountain to the left. This picture was taken a few days ago after a fresh dusting of snow. This ski home has 5 traditional bedrooms, 2 of those have loft areas for playing or additional beds, and one huge room that could be a bunk room ( bet you could put 4-5 sets of bunk beds in there) or a home theatre instead of a bedroom. It's that big.
Don't you want to take care of your employees and have a place to take your family also?
Offered at $1,395,000

Now that is smart! All of these poor people that spent the big buck on season passes for Deer Valley and The Canyons are in luck! Park City Mountain is offering them a way to ski today and for cheaper than normal so they don't feel so left out. (Maybe next year they will buy a PCMR pass!)

Lots of Snow in Park City Utah today


WOW and double Wow! Park City Snow today. As of about 4pm yesterday, not much snow was sticking to the ground. Well, let me tell you this - it started snowing and it has hardly stopped. Last night was a white out, we could only see where we were going by looking a the reflective freeway markers on the side of the road. Same thing off and on today. Check out the furniture on the deck of my 950 Lowell listing. Had to dig my way in. The front steps had been shoveled much earlier in the day and the rear deck was about 2 feet deep in snow. The Park City Mountain parking lot was pretty full too.
Almost looks like a big fluffy cake
More snow to come. At least 2 more storms and another 36"!!!!

Hyatt comes to The Canyons in Park City

I was hanging at Maxwell's a few weeks ago with a client after an afternoon of house hunting. We ran into her loan officer and a group of friends eating and drinking at the bar. Turns out I was introduced to the new General Manager of the Hyatt property here in Park City. Claudia hails from Germany originally and most recently the Hyatt property in Maui. I hope she will like it here. She said she has already purchased some snow boots to replace her open toe shoes.

Rumor has it the Hyatt is vying for another property at the Canyons before the ski season is through.....

What message is your FOR SALE sign sending part 2

As you may have read in part 1 of this subject, "Price Reduced" riders on a For Sale sign can send the wrong message to potential buyers. Ok, that being said, what about a "Sale Pending" sign rider?

Does it tell a potential buyer to drive on by and not even consider your home? What if the sale fails? Not so unusual these days with financing tough to come by.

Potential buyers may have dismissed this home and may not come back. Nobody likes to fall in love with a home they ultimately cannot have. The opportunity is lost. Others may be thrilled it is available again, but will they wonder what happened? Will they believe what the listing agent tells them about why it fell out or will they wonder if there was a problem with the home?

Any thoughts?

The Canyons gondola and Heated chair lift progress

Quick update today... The Canyons gondola tower is in place! No sign of the heated Orange Bubble lift yet, although I was told it will originate from the exact point where the gondola used to be - right near the Grand Summit Hotel. The pictures may look a bit fuzzy - it was snowing and the wind was blowing.

 With all of the improvements happening at The Canyons, now is a great time to grab a ski condo at Silverado, Red Pine, Hidden Creek, Escala or the Waldorf Astoria before everyone else figures out what a great resort this is.
