COMPANY PROFILE THE WHISTLER REAL ESTATE COMPANY LTD. MISSION STATEMENT: THE ONGOING MISSION OF THE WHISTLER REAL ESTATE CO. LTD. IS TO ASSIST BUYERS AND SELLERS IN MAKING THE BEST REAL ESTATE DECISIONS POSSIBLE BY PROVIDING RELEVANT KNOWLEDGE, COLLABORATION, PROFESSIONALISM, AND A MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE. The Whistler Real Estate Company has consistently been the leading real estate company in Whistler for 40 years, surpassing the competition in both the total number of reported real estate listings and sales. To fully appreciate the position The Whistler Real Estate Company finds itself in today, one must look back at our humble beginnings, when the company was founded as MacGregor Pacific Realty in a Creekside trailer in 1978. In 1980, we became one of the original businesses in the new Whistler Village. The name was changed to The Whistler Real Estate Co. Ltd. in 1988. The company continued to grow its operations and added a second office in Pemberton in 1998. In 2013/2014 we purchased, fully renovated, and moved into our current Whistler Village location on Main Street. Our company has played an integral role in Whistler’s development since the resort’s early days. This historical involvement gives our agents a distinct advantage when it comes to understanding Whistler’s real estate market and its complexities, such as property rights, restrictions, and requirements unique to resort living and not found in traditional urban marketplaces. Four decades of providing exceptional real estate services to Whistler and its surrounding areas, in combination with over 600 years of combined experience in the local market, means that our team not only understands this unique legal framework, but they have also played a role in creating it. This intimate, first-hand knowledge leads to the highest value in both investment and lifestyle for our clients. From the finest luxury accommodations to single-family homes, from multi-million dollar chalets to commercial operations and everything in between, The Whistler Real Estate Company can meet your every real estate need.

WHISTLER MARKET REPORT Sales activity in the Whistler marketplace continued to be brisk throughout the third quarter of 2017, albeit at a slower pace than the first half of the year. Overall, the total number of sales in the third quarter of 2017 was 15% lower than the previous quarter, and 13% below those seen in the same period one year ago. This still represents a historically above average pace of business and the slowing of sales can largely be attributed to the low number of properties being offered for sale. Interest in investment in Whistler continues to be high and this, combined with restricted supply, has led to a continued upward movement in values. Throughout 2017, increased attention towards luxury properties (those listed over $2,000,000) has also moved the dial statistically as almost 13.5% of all transactions have occurred in this high-end market segment. This represents an increase from 10% of all sales one year ago. The current median transaction value of a single family home is $2 million, an increase of 17% since the end of 2016. Townhouse median values have risen to $912,000, an increase of 12.6%. Median condo values currently sit at $482,500, an increase of 22%. Meanwhile, the median values for single-family building lots sit at $1,295,000. It must be noted that each individual market segment is best defined as a ‘micro’ market, so individual situations may vary significantly from the statistical average.

As we head into winter, we expect the existing framework of supply and demand to be the determining factor impacting activity and sales values moving forward. The heightened enthusiasm and interest generated by the new Vail Resorts ownership, combined with our growing traditional target market in Greater Vancouver, a predictable regional and national economic outlook, and the expectation of a great snow year, should all work together to ensure a busy season for visitors, the community, and the local real estate market. As always we encourage you to speak directly with one of our advisors to make sure you are fully up-to-date with our very dynamic and specialized real estate market. Pat Kelly, President *Based on Whistler Listing System Statistics October, 2017.

Arguably the most sought after address in Whistler, this property in the exclusive Stonebridge neighbourhood offers unparalleled views of the entire valley, looking across forested slopes to Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains with the pristine waters of Alta Lake below. Set within 8.3 acres of landscaped grounds, the 10 bedroom, 11 bathroom residence provides a place to retreat from the world and host friends and family in a spectacular natural setting. Panoramic windows line the main living room ensuring natural light and alpine views take centre stage, a theme repeated throughout the house. Both house and gardens were extensively renovated in 2016 with renowned landscape architect Paul Sanga sculpting new green spaces around the residence. The outdoor living areas were expanded to create a four season entertainment space with the addition of a covered exterior pavilion, pizza oven, barbeque area, heat lamps, and outdoor fireplace. Indoors, the kitchen was redesigned to chef’s specifications and outfitted with the latest in commercial appliances while extensive remodelling of the master bedrooms and bathrooms was accompanied by a complete upgrade of home technology. While removed from the everyday happenings of the Village, the property is within a short drive of all the resort amenities. A mountainside oasis created by the finest master craftsman, this is a unique property with no equal in the resort today.

LUXURY PORTFOLIO

DONNYBROOK FARM — THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS Sixteen years ago former Whistler Mayor Drew Meredith and his wife Lori searched throughout British Columbia for an ideal piece of property. They were looking for some land, a place to raise horses, and a home that offered some tranquillity after the hustle and bustle of living in the most popular resort community in the province. They searched high and low, from the Interior to Vancouver Island. It turns out that perfect piece of property was right on their doorstep, 30 minutes from Whistler in the bucolic Pemberton Valley. Nothing else even came close. “It was the best of both worlds,” Drew says of the move up the highway. The decision meant Lori could have horses while Drew could continue selling resort real estate — Pemberton’s small town charm juxtaposed with Whistler’s sophistication. Their rural estate was called Donnybrook Farm — 46 acres nestled in a prime spot just three kilometres from town. With views of majestic Mount Currie and the surrounding mountains, it is easy to see why this was one of Pemberton’s original homesteads. Donnybrook Farm is just how you picture it — a quaint, storybook idyll set in the valley of the mountains, maintaining its farm status with hay, eggs, and garlic production. It lies within Pemberton’s Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR), where farming is encouraged and non-agricultural uses are restricted. The property includes a heritage log cabin, an indoor horse riding arena, an outdoor sand arena, a large pole barn, and a 2,000 square foot root cellar, among other amenities. Perhaps best of all, there is so much potential on the surrounding 46 acres. Not long after settling into their new home, Drew and Lori also realized that Pemberton was a burgeoning community of like-minded people, many choosing rural living for the lifestyle it offered. Still, they were never far from Whistler, the place that Drew had called home since 1970, leading the town as mayor through one of its biggest growth periods in the late eighties and then becoming a well-known resort real estate agent. It is not every Whistler realtor that gets his hands dirty planting garlic in the morning and sells multi-milliondollar real estate to savvy international buyers in the afternoon. In the more than a decade and a half since they have called Donnybrook home, the local community has come into its own. At its heart, it remains a small farming town but Pemberton is slowly diversifying, with more and more people seeking what Drew and Lori were looking for all those years ago. There are people making the move from Whistler in search of a different lifestyle; others coming from the city looking to Pemberton as their weekend retreat; some people are looking for a safe place to raise their families; and still others are looking for a place to retire. Donnybrook Farm offers it all… and more.

WHISTLER SOUTH WHERE IT ALL BEGAN

MIKE CRANE


WHISTLER SOUTH THE ORIGINAL VILLAGE In 1966 when Whistler’s first ski area opened, Whistler South was the home of the original village and site of the first lifts on Whistler Mountain - a 4-person gondola to mid-mountain, a double chair lift, and T-bars. All of which were installed with the hopes of securing the 1968 Winter Olympic Games. Today, Creekside’s historical significance is not forgotten and what was once the original village is now a contemporary and desirable neighbourhood boasting cafés, stores, restaurants, and luxury hotels. The Creekside Gondola still runs to mid-mountain, and, with the addition of the Peak-to-Peak Gondola, it provides access to both Whistler and Blackcomb mountains. With both Nita and Alpha Lakes close by, and with the expansion of the Whistler Bike Park, Whistler South is a centre for outdoor activities all year-round. Prospective Creekside buyers will find a mix of past and present with everything from original rustic cabins to fabulous modern townhomes, condos, and chalets. As well as offering a huge range of options and amenities, the neighbourhood is also home to three exclusive locales. Kadenwood is Canada’s first and only resort neighbourhood with its own dedicated gondola service, while Bear Creek offers incomparable access to Whistler Mountain as well as stunning views across the valley. Finally, the Nita Lake Lodge is Whistler’s first and only five-star waterfront hotel.

The area of Whistler South also extends both north and south of Creekside to include several other exciting neighbourhoods. The northernmost neighbourhood in Whistler South is Nordic. Here you will find the luxurious Taluswood community as well as an array of exquisitely designed townhomes, duplexes, and single-family residences on the south side of Whistler Mountain and overlooking the Valley. To the south of Creekside are the family-friendly subdivisions of Bayshores, Millar’s Pond, and Spring Creek, which mostly offer townhomes, duplexes, and single family homes featuring stunning rainforest and mountain scenery. Cheakamus Crossing and Function Junction, Whistler's most southern neighbourhoods, are located on either side of the Sea-to-Sky Highway as you first enter Whistler. Cheakamus Crossing is a new, sustainably designed community surrounded by forest and trails near the Cheakamus River. Function Junction offers a range of businesses, stores, cafés, and professional services while also serving as Whistler’s industrial area.

GETTING YOUR HOME READY TO SELL Getting ready to sell your home, no matter if it is your first home or your home away from home, is an exciting and emotional process. After price, the condition of your home is one of the largest factors in determining how fast, and for how much, your home sells. First impressions can sometimes be a deal breaker. Luckily, you can dramatically improve how your property shows to potential buyers with a few quick steps. SIMPLIFY AND DE-CLUTTER: Getting rid of any extra furniture can help make rooms feel more open and spacious. Of course, you don’t want to get rid of all of your furniture – just any unnecessary pieces that will help you show off more of your space. Clear your countertops. Put all toys, clothing, and other items away in their designated areas. DE-PERSONALIZE: This point goes hand-in-hand with the one above. Help potential buyers visualize themselves living in your home rather than thinking about who lives there now by removing family photos, mementos, and other personal items. CLEAN, SCRUB, VACUUM, AND CLEAN AGAIN: Inside and out – a clean home matters. A lot. From the floors to the doors, clean absolutely everything. Doing one deep clean before you put the home on the market means that you will just have to do a quick clean and tidy before each showing. Make sure not to miss your windows as everyone will be looking out them to see the view and neighbourhood. Don’t underestimate the power of professional cleaners. DO MINOR REPAIRS: This is the best time to go through that ‘honey-do’ list and check things off. Wipe away scuffs on the walls, refresh the paint, fix leaky faucets, put some WD-40 on squeaky hinges, check that all your lights work, replace any broken appliances, removed old or stained carpets and furniture. FIX UP YOUR CURB APPEAL: In the winter, make sure that your driveway is clear and that your stairs are shovelled and ice-free. Make it as easy as possible for potential buyers to get into your home. Make sure that all your exterior lights are in working order and if there are a few branches blocking the view, consider having them trimmed. CONSIDER STAGING: Staging can be especially effective if you have already moved out and your home is sitting empty. That said, a little staging can make a world of difference in all homes.

WHISTLER CENTRE

BEFORE THE MOUNTAINS

JUSTA JESKOVA


WHISTLER CENTRE THE ORIGINAL RESORT One of the most sought-after ski resorts in the world today, Whistler was originally a very popular fishing destination. Alex and Myrtle Phillip opened the Rainbow Lodge Fishing Resort at Alta Lake in 1914, which, with the extension of the railway line from Vancouver, became the most popular resort destination west of Banff. Whistler Centre can now be considered an extension of the Village with many popular subdivisions, all linked by the Valley Trail. Easy access to amenities and a large array of recreational activities draws many prospective buyers to this area. The lake, with its diverse parks and beaches, is a summer hot spot for swimming, fishing, kayaking, and other water activities. The paved Valley Trail system – perfect for biking, rollerblading, running, walking, and cross-country skiing – not only provides access to the lake, but also circumnavigates another defining characteristic of the area – the spectacular Arnold Palmer-designed Whistler Golf Course, ranked one of the best courses in Canada. A short distance from the Village, the subdivisions that make up Whistler Centre offer a wide range of properties, from single-family homes to exquisite luxury chalets.

Just south of the Village, across from the Whistler Golf Course, lies the convenient neighbourhood of Brio. Here, potential purchasers will find a wide range of beautiful single-family homes, along with the exclusive Sunridge Plateau Development. At the southern end of the golf course is Blueberry Hill, where the resort’s first luxury subdivisions can be found. As you move further south to the border of Alta Lake you will find Alta Vista. This beautiful neighbourhood is halfway between the Village and Creekside and sits next to the private enclave of Lakecrest. On the shores of Alta Lake, Lakecrest offers unique and rare waterfront properties as well as vacant lots for building your dream home. Directly opposite the Village is Whistler Cay Heights, sought-after for its elegant residential feel while still being in close proximity to the action. Following the hill down you will reach Whistler Cay Estates, which links to the smaller neighbourhood of Nesters, with its own shopping complex. Also known as Tapley’s farm, this area is very family friendly and is home to an elementary school and community sports fields.

A GUIDE TO BUYING YOUR FIRST WHISTLER PROPERTY Buying a property in Whistler can be a daunting experience. Whether you are looking for a house or a condo, there are so many factors influencing your decision. Budget, financing, location, property type, property restrictions, and market factors are just a few of the obstacles buyers face when searching for their dream Whistler property. Here are some quick tips for those looking to buy their first property in Whistler. REFINING YOUR BUDGET: First of all it is important to know what your budget is as this will influence which properties you look at and how much financing you may require. There are a lot of things to consider when looking at your budget, not just the price of the listing. In addition there are property taxes, home maintenance costs, strata fees, management fees, revenues, and emergency funds. Be sure to factor in everything when calculating your budget. FINANCING: Getting pre-approved for a mortgage will make the buying process much faster and smoother. Discuss your options with your agent in order to meet your short and long-term real estate goals. FINDING A PROPERTY: After you have nailed down your budget and financing you can start looking for potential properties. It is always important to keep an open mind through every aspect of the search. Whether you are looking for a specific location, or property type, know that there are more options out there and talk to your agent about the best decision to match your goals. One of the best tips is making a list of your needs vs. wants, this way you can narrow down your search to best match your must-have requirements. THE BUYING PROCESS: This is where your real estate agent really comes in. Their job is to make the process easy for you by providing you with their in-depth knowledge of the local area and the real estate market to help support you in your decision-making. As a company, our aim is to make the buying process as easy and stress-free as possible. We are long-time locals and we are here to help find the perfect Whistler property for you.

THE VILLAGE & BENCHLANDS

THE HEART OF THE WHISTLER LIFESTYLE

JUSTA JESKOVA


THE VILLAGE & BENCHLANDS A RESORT VILLAGE It is not just the endless recreation activities, festivals, and events that make Whistler what it is, but the Village as well. Nestled at the bottom of the valley where the bases of Blackcomb and Whistler mountains converge, the Village is not only the main departure for gondola and lift access to 8,100 acres of in-bound terrain, but it is also a year-round venue for Whistler’s famous après scene, exciting street entertainment, and numerous festivals, not to mention a hub for world-class shopping and dining. The cobblestone pedestrian-only village is known for internationally ranked cuisine, a famous après and nightclub scene, high-end spas, and all the retail therapy an avid shopper could want. It was intended to be explored on foot and everything is within an easy stroll. There are stunning views no matter where you turn, and it was meticulously conceived to exist in harmony with its beautiful natural surroundings. The Upper Village is situated at the base of the Benchlands which is home to Lost Lake Park and the Chateau Whistler Golf Course. Linking the Upper Village to Whistler’s Lower Village, is Fitzimmons Trail, complete with a covered bridge alongside Rebagliati Park.

With mountain access via the Wizard chairlift, along with a network of hiking and biking trails, residents of the Upper Village and Benchlands are right on nature’s doorstep and have some of the best access to Whistler’s recreation activities. The Village itself is lined with an exciting array of shops, speciality stores, nightclubs, restaurants, patios, and cafés offering each passerby a chance to linger as long as their heart desires. To ensure that there are homes available for tourists to rent and enjoy during their stay, the vast majority of properties within the Village and Benchlands neighbourhoods have restrictive covenants that cater to rentals for short-term visitors. Of the 7,700 Village area properties, only 42 are detached residences, but for those who want to live close to the action and enjoy the ease of having everything within short walking distance, the Village and Benchlands are the best options.

MANAGING A RENTAL PROPERTY IN WHISTLER For many buyers in Whistler, purchasing a property isn’t just about realising a dream it is an investment. Those purchasing a property for the purpose of renting will need to find a property management solution that works for them. For many, this means employing the expertise of a local property management company. Property management is about more than just revenues, it is about having someone you trust on the ground caring for and protecting your home. They are the first point of contact for guests prior to their arrival and while in-house. Well established property management firms offer a one stop shop service for all your needs. Property management is a challenging business with a lot of moving parts. It can be quite daunting when undertaken on your own. Not only is it dealing with the reservation process and in-house guests, you are also coordinating housekeeping, sub-trades, and general contractors, this is where a property management company comes in. A property manager looks after the marketing, including professional photos, managing your listing on booking engines, and maintaining relationships with travel partners. Many also have in-house reservation teams who follow-up and facilitate the rental, and provide a memorable guest experience. A dedicated maintenance team and property inspectors work tirelessly to make sure your property is being well cared for and presented to guests and owners to the highest standard. A dedicated owner relations representative provides one point of contact for you. Many professional management companies will also work closely with strata companies and accountants on behalf of the owner to make sure your interests are protected. In addition, property managers can often assist with property upgrades, purchases, and any other items associated with a property under their management. However, not all property management companies are created equal so it is important to do your research when looking for the right fit for your home. Fees will vary based on the services included and it is important to define your needs prior to selecting a firm. Make sure you understand the practices of the management company and dig into the services their fees included. Once you are satisfied with the firm you have selected, relax and enjoy your new Whistler home.

MIKE CRANE


WHISTLER NORTH NEIGHBOURS TO THE NORTH Characterized by extensive green space, lake access, and magnificent mountain views, Whistler North offers a diverse mix of history, character, and location. Those looking to live here will be spoilt by seemingly endless hiking and biking trails, a world-class golf course, cross-country ski trails, and a wide selection of housing options.

mountain homes. Both areas are surrounded by forest and offer spectacular views from Whistler Mountain to Mount Currie and beyond. Alpine Meadows is home to the Meadow Park Sports Centre and Whistler's only high school. Emerald offers a selection of waterfront properties along the shore of glacier-fed Green Lake.

It is impossible to generalize about the varied home types in this area of the Valley. Just a short walk to the Village is White Gold, offering a range of single-family detached houses, pensions, and bed and breakfasts.

Between these two established subdivisions is the community of Rainbow, a new family-friendly neighbourhood boasting views of Green Lake and the mountains.

HEARTH & HOME

HOME IS WHERE THE HEARTH IS When looking for a new home, potential buyers almost always have a detailed list of the many things they desire in an abode – from the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, to square footage, and proximity to schools, trails and more. Fireplaces are most often considered a luxury or bonus item on the list – if they have been considered at all. However, in a winter wonderland and resort destination like Whistler, a cozy hearth is just what every home needs. Whistler is blessed with the longest and snowiest ski season in North America, as well as two towering mountains sitting side-by-side, and filled with trails for all level of skier or snowboarder. So, at the end of a day ripping down perfectly groomed corduroy runs, or cutting tracks through fresh powder – what could be better than easing your muscles and heating your frozen toes in front of a roaring fire with your favourite beverage in hand? Fireplaces are not just for providing warmth after tackling the slopes though. A fireplace offers the ideal location for a romantic interlude with that someone special, complete with flickering mood lighting and relaxed ambiance. And, more than heating and atmosphere, fireplaces have traditionally served as centrepieces for family rooms where trophies, family photos, and Christmas cards are displayed on the mantle with pride. Not to mention its functionality when it comes to drying all of your winter gear. In the resort, home builders and owners alike know all too well the importance of having a fireplace, so you’ll find a myriad of styles and types – from gas to wood – throughout Whistler’s real estate offerings. In Whistler we take our fireplaces seriously. So, when considering a new abode in the resort, make sure it has the right number of rooms and bathrooms, but absolutely make sure it has a fireplace – because in Whistler, home is definitely where the hearth is.

PEMBERTON AREA

WHERE EARTH MEETS SKY

ERIC MCINTYRE


PEMBERTON AREA PASTORAL PEACEFULNESS Located just 30 minutes north of Whistler on the Sea-to-Sky Highway through the scenic Soo Valley, lies the picturesque Village of Pemberton with all the charm and character of an old fashioned pioneer town.

Pemberton is also a gateway to back country adventures — whether it is the Hurley Pass into the southern Chilcotin Range, the Birkenhead Valley leading to Anderson Lake, or the Duffy Lake Road providing access to B.C’s interior.

However, old fashioned couldn’t be any further from the truth. An agricultural heartland with ranches, fields, and meadows, Pemberton’s farming community grows much of the local, organic produce, and cruelty-free meat offered on the menus in many of Whistler’s restaurants.

Potential homebuyers will find a range of housing options. Traditional single family homes combine with the more contemporary luxury properties and new condominium, townhome, and duplex developments round out the offerings.

While many choose to move to Whistler to escape city living and get back to nature, Pemberton offers an even more relaxed pace of life. The community is incredibly welcoming and populated by those who prefer the quieter life, while still having access to a plethora of outdoor recreation activities. Mount Currie is the main focal point of the landscape, giving every property in Pemberton an incredible mountain view. The area is also surrounded by a number of breathtaking provincial parks each providing opportunities for adventure and exploration. Birkenhead, Garibaldi and Joffre Lakes, and Nairn Falls Park are huge draws for locals who love the outdoors. With all the lakes, rivers, and mountains, the area offers golfing, fishing, hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking, sky diving, and boating in the summer. In the winter, it is a playground for back country and cross country skiing, heli-skiing, and snowmobiling.

This growing community has seen the addition of a waterpark, skate park, and pump track, as well as a state-of-the-art community centre and library, and colourful assortment of shops, galleries, and restaurants. Pemberton is also home to two golf courses, both set against the incredible backdrop of the mountains and valley. Pemberton is truly a slice of paradise. On a blue-sky day one only has to look up at the stunning view of Mount Currie to believe it.

PEMBERTON MARKET REPORT High demand and low supply continue to be the defining characteristics of the real estate marketplace in Pemberton and the surrounding area. All well priced, affordable properties are attracting immediate attention and often result in multiple offers. As a result, values continue to rise despite a significant drop in sales activity. With no new developments or opportunities approved for the near future, we expect these conditions to continue into 2018. Median real estate values in all the housing categories have risen since the end of 2016. The median sales value of a single family home is currently $760,000 which is a 16.9% increase since the start of 2017. Townhouses have risen 17.1% to $479,000 and the median value for condos stands at $345,000, an increase of 32%. It must be noted that due to the micro nature of the Pemberton real estate market, the total number of transactions is very small and individual situations will vary widely from statistical averages. This certainly tells us that valuation is more of an art than a science, and that local expertise and knowledge are therefore a must when investigating Pemberton real estate opportunities. Going forward, we expect the real estate market in Pemberton to stay strong and for values to be supported and move upwards. Further, you can expect to see construction begin on a significant number of new homes as a result of the successful sales programs

at Tiyata, Sunstone, Pemberton Ridge, and the Benchlands. It is expected that a significant number of these properties will be offered for sale and that they will be occupied by full-time, local families. Additionally, several medium density (condo/townhouse ) projects are planned and may be offered in 2018. One potential negative to consider may be the new lending rules coming into effect in January 2018. These new rules will make qualifying for a mortgage more difficult and may impact the lower priced properties in Pemberton. In our opinion, Pemberton is going to be a very busy place for the foreseeable future as homeowners, entrepreneurs, and investors continue to recognize opportunities. To ensure that you are totally up-to-date, it is important to stay in contact with one of our full time, local advisors. Pat Kelly, President *Based on Whistler Listing System Statistics October, 2017.


SHARED OWNERSHIP FULL ADVENTURE AT A FRACTION OF THE COST No matter your budget or lifestyle, there is always a resort property suited to you and there is always a way to realize your own adventurous Whistler dream. The idea of a large financial investment - especially in a second home that will only be used occasionally - often prevents those thoughts from becoming a reality. But, with shared ownership, it does not have to be a dream. Why not consider splitting the investment with a friend, family member, or even a fellow lover of Whistler? Imagine having all the benefits of owning a scenic alpine cabin or cozy suite in the Village at a fraction of the cost and without the hassles associated with managing a co-owned property yourself. Shared ownership is a growing segment in resort real estate because it is specifically designed to accommodate a variety of lifestyle and economic realities. Fractional interests and timeshare opportunities are a perfect way to own a piece of Whistler and get outstanding accommodation amenities with full-service management. In addition, many shared ownership properties also offer a way to generate a little extra revenue through nightly rentals when you are not using the property. Affordable opportunities for shared ownership can be found throughout the resort in a number of premier and exclusive locations. They are designed as great lifestyle properties for those that want to come to Whistler and not own a full property. MIKE CRANE
