We're booked solid for thanksgiving, Christmas, new years and ski season, but I was surprised at how empty we are the rest of the year (something that we are currently working to solve for).If I was to buy another property in the area, I would not go larger than a 4/3 and may even be more open to 3/2s as smaller properties are also more likely to cater to families vs single partiers.As it stands, as a mountain, with Stratton you can't go wrong.

You'll need to search for homes, understand the market, meet the right people, check who you're renting to, manage your property well, and keep money aside for surprises.

Finding the right property, checking its worth, making connections, choosing good renters, looking after the place, and keeping money aside for surprises are key steps.
