Winter Park Resort Offers Real Estate Incentives Through Opening Day
October 16, 2006
Homebuyers to receive up to $3,500 in lodging vouchers in order to take advantage of upcoming season
Winter Park, Colorado – With the November 15 opening day fast approaching, Winter Park is also gearing up for strong real estate sales. In fact, the resort is offering special incentives for its two new residential offerings, Fraser Crossing and Founders Pointe. From now until Nov. 15, anyone who purchases a studio, one or two -bedroom unit can receive up to $3,500 lodging certificate at resort properties for the 2006-2007-ski season.
“Home buyers who frequent the mountain and appreciate the beauty and vitality of the resort, want to be able to enjoy what Winter Park has to offer right away,” said Gary De Frange, vice president and general manager of Winter Park Resort. “If they purchase a unit before opening day, they can stay at another property near the ski resort on our dollar. They won’t need to wait until the construction is complete to stay at the base of our world-class resort.”
Nestled at the base of Winter Park Resort, Fraser Crossing and Founders Pointe mark the first major residential offerings at the base village in almost a decade. And while sales have been brisk, there are still a variety of resort condominiums available at entry-level pricing for a limited time. Prices are expected to increase before the end of the year.
The long awaited and much anticipated village development officially broke ground in June 2006 and since then, 70 percent of the 194 residences; a mix of studio, one, two and three-bedrooms, at Fraser Crossing and Founders Pointe have already sold. Completion is set for late 2007.
These new condos are the first phase of the 10- to 15-year build out for the new Village at Winter Park and will offer residents fantastic views of the ski hill. Also, the Resort has invested $25 million in on-mountain improvements and will spend an additional $25 million over the next five to eight years.
