Mammoth Lakes Real Estate Market Trends August 28, 2017
Many of you may have already heard about the acquisition of Mammoth Mountain by KSL/Crown Family, who also just purchased Deer Valley in Utah. The KSL/Crown company will come up with a new name and brand for the new partnership with a growing portfolio of ski resorts in North America. Similar to Vail’s “Epic Pass”, eventually, Mammoth passholders will most likely have access to the conglomerate of ski resorts owned by KSL/Crown, which include: Aspen Highlands, Colorado, Aspen Mountain, Colorado, Buttermilk, Colorado, Snowmass Ski Area, Colorado, Alpine Meadows, California, Bear Mountain Resort, California, Blue Mountain, Ontario, June Mountain, California, Mammoth, California, Snow Summit, California, Snowshoe, West Virginia, Squaw Valley, California, Steamboat Ski & Resort Corporation, Colorado, Stratton, Vermont, Tremblant, Quebec, and Winter Park Resort, Colorado. As Mammoth is discovered by more people because of the new ownership and other resorts under their umbrella, perhaps this will drive more demand to owning real estate and prices will continue to rise.
The current inventory levels have increased over the past couple of weeks, however, inventory levels are still quite low for late August. There are 58 homes on the market, 85 condos and 46 lots. Inventory for this time of year is usually double the amount for condos, which have been very popular under the $500K price point during spring and early to mid-summer months. As of today, there are a total of 16 homes, 53 condos and 3 vacant land listings in escrow (in the process of selling). The normal late summer rush of sales seems to have occurred earlier this year to coincide with the news of KSL/Aspen Skiing Company purchasing Mammoth Mountain. For many people, the substantial snowfall this past winter and extended recreation for skiing/boarding might have also contributed to the demand for real estate.
Some of the most popular areas for condo purchases in Mammoth are usually the Village at Mammoth (investment/income potential), ski-in, ski-out/slope side condos, golf course properties along the Sierra Star Golf Course and Snowcreek V, and meadow area condos (Snowcreek I, II, III & IV). Below are some desirable condos on the market in some of these areas.
