It’s actually not that hard- here’s a list of all the FREE things to do during Spring Back to Vail April 12-18, 2010.
1. Free concerts! The Sierra Leone’s Refugee All Stars are performing on April 16th at Checkpoint Charlie, from 6-10 pm in Vail Village. They will also be showing their documentary which tells the story of the bands’ long journey from the Sierra Leone and their experiences in various refugee camps.
2. Attend Après and “After Dark Parties” where you can snipe some freebies from Bud Light and Captain Morgan at bars throughout Vail Village and Lionshead. My favorites include the Red Lion, the George, and Samana Lounge.
3. Stop by the Men’s Journal Lounge and Reverb Eco Village with sponsors such as Bear Naked Granola and attendance by Stonyfield Farm and Sustainable Biodiesel Alliance. 8:30-3:30 at the base of the Vista Bahn lift near Vail Village.

4. FREE concert! Don’t miss Wyclef Jean on Saturday, April 17 and guest Robert Earl Keen. This concert, located at Ford Park is THE concert not to miss this Spring in Vail! This will be an unforgettable combination and night to remember! Get there early- this will be one packed show! Robert Earl Keen starts at 5 pm, followed by Wyclef at 7 pm. No floor space left at my place- too many friends are coming, but you can find some great lodging deals and catch some spring runs!
5. Free lunch and entertainment continues on Sunday with the Rockstar World Pond Skimming Championships. Located at Golden Peak on Vail Mountain, watch as crazy skiers glide across a somewhat (sarcasm) chilly pool of water. Many wear costumes, some land smoothly, but most crash epically into the water! They should find a hot chocolate and heater sponsor for this one! Or perhaps an arctic dive suit maker….

Free BBQ will be provided, and then to wrap up Spring Back to Vail 2010….

6. Another free concert! Located again at Checkpoint Charlie in the Vail Village, Guster, an “acoustic-pop threesome” that throws humor into their alternative rock show.

One thing is for certain- this is one heck of a way to finish the winter here in Vail- and I won’t forget to take as many late season runs as I can humanely accomplish while also soaking in some spring weather, great music, friends, food, and fun! Hopefully the family will visit and join too- each of these events would be great for my young cousins, aunts, and more!

April real estate numbers indicate a good sign and a gradual boost in Vail’s market economy. Land Title Guarantee Company has published April’s numbers, which show that April is the second best month thus far both in dollar volume, $57,567,700, and in transactions, 54, since January 01, 2009.

Vail, CO is a high-worth destination market that will never be fully affected by the economic hardships that metropolitan areas are currently facing. There will always be word-class properties and high spenders to utilize them. Vail Ski Vacations.com would like to extend to each and every one of our clients beneficial information about an easy and affordable investment option called fractional ownership.

Fractional ownership is the newer, easier, and smarter version of owning a timeshare. Vail Ski Vacations.com—soon to be Rocky Mountain Vacation Rentals.com—is a third party vacation rental company with a real estate division that specializes in fractional ownership. Owning a fraction of a whole property is an affordable way to invest without a super, over-the-top second mortgage. It allows you to enjoy your residence without the headache of keeping up with the property’s utility management. Fractional ownership is a smart investment—specifically in a short-term vacation rental market like Vail— because you will continually collect payments from the lodging provider who’s supplying your property to consumers within the rental market. Because fractional properties are typically luxury rentals, you will collect a certain amount of rental income on a yearly basis.

Fractional ownership is different from timeshares in many ways. Firstly, the value of your property can appreciate. Secondly, the property is a deeded interest, so you can will it down to family members, versus only being able to have it for 30 years (with no included property restoration). The hotel, condo association, or property management company that rents out the fraction of your ownership keep up with the property in the most prestigious fashion so down the road, those fractional properties will continue to sell and resell.

What you will typically find in timeshares is that property management companies don’t put any money into the restoration of the property so at the end of a long period the timeshare property essentially depreciates in value, thus losing its market of renters.

Fractional ownership is a smarter investment for all of our clients because the price point is much more affordable, while still allowing for growth potential in the investment area. Vail is the number one ski resort in North America, and resort towns like Vail are never going to go out of business. The ski lifts are always going to run. Winter enthusiasts will always make time and effort to ski Vail and other Colorado ski resorts. And real estate companies and rental providers will always see a return on their investments.

April’s real estate numbers indicate monetary exchange and growth within the real estate market, especially those properties averaging between $500,000 and $1,000,000 (33%). These percentages denote the perfect time to invest in a Fractional and/or Private Residence club, as it is best for buyers to purchase these residences during the earlier phases, before prices increase as the project reaches sell out.

Visit our real estate division at www.vbclp.com (Vail/ Beaver Creek Luxury Properties) to find the best offers on fractional properties in exclusive locations with ease of ownership, furnished residences, included maintenance and house-keeping, investment potential and second home ownership opportunities!

Bridge Street

The Bridge Street condos are fabulous to rent as they offer guests a large space to relax, generally condos feature more amenities and as such are great for large groups or entertaining.  Located within walking distance of the Vista Bahn chairlift the Bridge Street condos overlook a popular part of the Vail village.  This section is generally very active with younger people enjoying one of the many great bars or restaurants for apres ski entertainment.

It’s been a few years since Vail’s reconstruction began, and while many of the projects have finished including the Arrabelle and the Vail Plaza Club a new batch of luxurious lodges, hotels and condos are projected to be completed in 2010. This second batch has certainly caught our attention; from the stunning Club at Solaris to the highly anticipated Ritz Carlton in Lionshead there is plenty to be excited for.

Truthfully, Vail has reached a new pinnacle in which it now accommodates more guests than ever, looks amazing and has certainly solidified its reputation as a world class skiing destination. Below we’ve highlighted a few projects that will certainly grab your attention, from revolutionary design to flawless guest service each soon to be finished project is a quality investment of your time or interest.

The Club at Solaris

Estimated Completion: April 2010

Since its beginnings the Club at Solaris (previously discussed here) has garnered attention, its set out to revolutionize not only design in Vail but how the real estate market works. The Club at Solaris is intriguing because it offers a wide array of fractional ownership opportunities with unique twists, the premier offering is a membership guaranteeing accommodation at any time of the year and whenever and however often you desire it. Limited ownership guarantees this as an illustrious investment, but it has a myriad of perks that include great access to Vail Mountain and the Village as well as the extensive amenities located in the building.

The Ritz Carleton Residences at Lionshead

Estimated Completion: November 2010

No longer will the Ritz Carleton in Bachelor Gulch (reviewed here) gain all of the Vail Valley’s praise, it will have to learn to share with its compatriot located in the newly renovated Lionshead Village. This stunning building will feature over 100 residences ranging in size from 2 to 6 bedrooms; these great accommodations will be complemented by stunning interiors and a wide array of amenities. Yet it’s the Ritz Carleton’s superior guest service and attention to detail that solidifies its reputation as one of the leaders in luxury residences. This is certainly going to have a pronounced effect on Lionshead Village as the Ritz Carleton and Arrabelle will reinvent this smaller, more reserved village of Vail.

One of our favorite topics here at VailSkiVacations.com is the benefits associated with Fractional Ownership, this post will be a review of what they are.  In addition, it will highlight where to learn more about Fractional Ownership in the Vail Valley and some of our more helpful posts.

Fractional Ownership is an approach to owning Real Estate that some compare to purchasing a Time Share, while there are many similarities there are subtle differences as well.  These differences relate to the time allotment of the two property ownership style, in Fractional Ownership homeowners buy a deed that allots them a desire amount of time per year.  Owners can choose their allotment and when it will take place, this allows you greater flexibility and less hassle than a Time Share.

Similar to Time Shares when purchasing Fractional Ownership of a property you are relieved of many of the burdens associated with a second home.  Maintenance is diminished as you split it with other owners and often the management of the property, in addition you only pay a fraction of the cost.

Some of Vail’s most luxurious properties offer great Fractional Ownership opportunities, these include One Willow Bridge, the soon to open Club at Solaris and Ritz Carlton and many more.  Our educate Real Estate department at VailSkiVacations.com/VailBeaverCreekLuxuryProperties.com are highly informed about Vail Valley fractional opportunites and would love to discuss them with you.  Contact us through our websites or phone at 1-877-411-8245.

In past years, and economic troubles, the Vail Valley Real Estate market has remained very stable often not even fluctuating with national trends.  Considered a safe haven by many home owners and real estate brokers the Vail Valley has shown incredible resilience.  However, in the past months it’s become clear that the Real Estate market in Vail is suffering.

Not necessarily a bad thing, while many people are tightening their budget these days others view this as an opportunity.  Rightfully so, with national and regional pressure decreasing demand home prices are staying stable or falling for one of the first times ever in Vail.  What does this mean to you?  A great chance to view and prepare a bid for a home, or fractional property, to buy when you’re ready to.  It’s clear that within a few years these economic concerns will subside, or if your career and earnings haven’t been jeopardized now is a great time to take advantage of your increased purchasing power.

Our sister companies VailSKiVacations.com and VailBeaverCreekLuxuryProperties.com are both confident that the market will bounce back and return to its previous high.  As such, our staff feels that now is a great time to purchase a second home or a fractional property if you have the capabiliyt.  A buyer’s market has emerged in what is typically a very priced region in which the seller has all of the control.  We encourage interested parties to act quickly and contact us to recieve further information through our websites or at 1-877-411-8245.
