It sounds like you're trying to identify which area is "hot" based on sales volumes and price.

Make sure to keep your eye on the prize and do not spend too much time chasing after the next hot thing.

For the rest of the day we had the keurig for guests that wanted one cup of coffee or hot water for tea.

There's plenty of people ready to pay for hot leads.If those aren't options, and you are focused on owning them, seller financing, subject-to, and lease options are the only remaining options.Thanks Ben. 

We have 60 rentals12 air bb units, Ohio  and Fla. 15-20  flips and wholesales, between buy and sell close at any point. 

Won't have a hot tub but will have an outdoor sauna.

Some of the new laws in the state house will require you to provide Air-Conditioning.

I started this a little over 3 years ago now.I think thorough research, and data will help make educated decisions, and the real winner in this market is finding a mix of at least 2 of the four:  Off market discount, fixer upper, lowball on market offer, or seller financed/subto.Also if you are planning to do it in a populated area I also think its good to take on the idea of not cash flowing for a few years, and also considering air bnb if you want to reduce costs even more.

Again I am not an expert on CA ski area but I imagine hot tubs are popular amenities. 

They are going to have a pool, possibly hot tub, maybe a snack bar, and be beach front. at least comparing to the PCB market, most houses in comparable prices to condos dont have those things and are not beach front.
