Engel & Völkers presents the five most exclusive ski resorts worldwide in its latest Ski Ranking.* The highest prices for ski properties are currently found in the Rocky Mountains in the US state of Colorado: Aspen leads the ranking list as the highest priced resort, followed by neighbouring Vail. Third place is shared by St. Moritz and Gstaad in Switzerland, making them the most exclusive ski regions in the Alps. Kitzbühel in Austria and Whistler in British Columbia, Canada, also rank in the Top 5. “Premium properties in ski regions are among the most sought-after second homes, as well as the most desirable investment properties. They make excellent long-term investment opportunities, especially when the financial markets are volatile, as an effective hedge against inflation – as well as providing a retreat throughout the ski season and beyond,” says Florian Hofer, Managing Director of Engel & Völkers Kitzbühel.
St. Moritz and Gstaad are followed by Kitzbühel, with prices per square metre of as much as 26,000 euros (27,000 US dollars). Around half of the property acquisitions are made by Austrians. In addition, buyers from countries such as Germany, the Netherlands or Great Britain are also interested in a ski property in order to relocate their main residence to Tyrol. Top locations here include the centre of Kitzbühel, Lebenberg, Bichlalm, and locations in the “Sonnenseite” area and on the Hahnenkamm mountainside. Premium homes in Aurach-Kochau just outside Kitzbühel are also in high demand.
