Property types
Slope proximity with membership and access questions
Ski chalets and club homes in The Blue Mountains
A ski home should be valued through legal and operating access, club or resort membership, winter road, parking, gear flow, roof and snow design, private services, NEC permissions and the building's recovery between stays.
What is different here
The general advice about this property type is available everywhere. This is the part that is specific to this market.
Test both directions, ability level and third-party dependence.
Club rights and transfer are not assumed from title.
Snow, ice, heat, drainage, storage and absence control use.
A visible trail or adjacent club does not establish an easement, membership or operating route.
Document every private or common segment and the fallback when it closes.
Wet gear, guest turnover, freeze-thaw and vacancy require ventilation, durable finishes, drainage, monitoring and local support.
Inspect the full system rather than a renovated great room.
Before you commit
Over and above a standard purchase. Each of these has caught somebody out in this market.
Where it actually is
The communities where this type genuinely occurs, and what to expect in each.
