Units with gear rooms, heated driveways, and EV-capable parking reduce guest friction and maintenance downtime. Mechanical ventilation and hydronic heating keep interiors stable through freeze-thaw cycles.

For investment stability, prioritize communities with formal snow-clearing SLAs and on-call maintenance. Linen storage and local housekeeping partners are essential to flip units efficiently during back-to-back bookings.

Assess mudroom sizing, boot-dryer capacity, and ski storage—these small details drive winter review scores. Verify roof overhangs and drip edges to protect terraces and hot tubs from snow shed.

Summer resilience matters: cross-ventilation, insect screens, and shaded outdoor seating extend seasonality and raise occupancy. Properties with bike storage and secure trail access appeal to hikers and riders outside ski months.

Shuttle-linked homes outperform remote plots on occupancy and housekeeping efficiency. Heat-pump systems lower running costs and support greener positioning for eco-minded guests.

Set aside 1–1.5% of property value annually for exterior treatment and snow infrastructure. Long-term contracts with rental managers that include linen and preventive maintenance stabilize NOI.

Install sub-metering for heating where possible to allocate costs fairly across guests and extended stays. EV-ready garages and covered entries reduce weather-related cancellations and keep cleaning timelines predictable.

Expert

Mountain Operations Briefing

Offer gear tuning and boot-drying as optional upsells; they elevate ADRs without adding heavy overhead. Pre-position spare linens and bulk consumables in locked closets to keep turnovers swift when snow delays suppliers.

Check driveway gradients and confirm heated strips cover the steepest segments. For hillside units, map evacuation routes and ensure signage is bilingual for international guests.

During summer, promote trail maps, cold-storage capacity for cycling nutrition, and blackout blinds for early sunrises. Consistent Wi‑Fi with mesh coverage is now a baseline expectation for remote workers.

Expert Tips

Schedule chimney sweeps and boiler services at the end of winter to avoid autumn backlogs.
Use washable wall paints and rugged flooring in mudrooms to withstand gear traffic.
Bundle snow-clearing, window cleaning, and gutter maintenance in one annual contract.
Keep a weather contingency budget to cover guest relocation or extended stays during storms.

Turnover Timing

Aim for four-hour cleaning windows with two-person crews for three-bedroom chalets; stagger check-in/out times when bookings overlap with heavy snow days.

Investment

Yield Sensitivities and Upside

Average ROI

5.5 to 6.5% gross (varies by proximity to lifts and seasonal mix)

Capital growth

4–8% annual (emerging market with higher volatility)

Rental yield

5.0 to 6.5% gross. Net yields 1.5 to 2% lower after snow-clearing, management, and seasonal vacancy.

Break-even

11–14 years with realistic dual-season occupancy assumptions

As new lifts and trails open, expect summer ADRs to climb, narrowing the gap with winter. Homes pre-wired for solar or battery backup will attract eco-focused guests and corporate retreats.

Exit liquidity favors units within 10 minutes of the gondola and with documented maintenance logs. Keep capex schedules transparent to reassure buyers about roof, deck, and heat-pump lifecycles.

Risk Factors

Weather-related access disruptions without heated driveways or shuttle agreements
Higher wear-and-tear on timber cladding without periodic oiling
Lower liquidity for homes lacking gear storage or mid-stay cleaning options

Opportunities

Pre-book with reputable operators for the first season to secure reviews quickly
Install smart sensors for leaks and temperature drops to prevent downtime
Market EV-ready garages and bike storage to capture summer adventure travelers
