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 ranked the #1 real estate company in Whistler for over 30 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. Three decades of providing exceptional real estate services to Whistler and its surrounding areas, in combination with well over 500 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.
We know Whistler, inside and out.
WHERE WE ARE The Whistler Real Estate Company Limited has office locations across from the public library in Whistler and in downtown Pemberton.

WHISTLER MARKET REPORT The Whistler real estate market experienced one of its most active years in 2016 resulting in significant price appreciation in most sub markets and over one billion dollars of value being transacted throughout the year. Although market activity during the first quarter of 2017 stayed consistent with that of the previous quarter, it was significantly below that of the same period a year ago. This can be explained by the historically low inventory level which is restricting the amount of sales activity despite the fact that there has been no reduction in buyer interest. This, in turn, has caused values to continue to trend upwards. Through the first three months of 2017, overall average transaction values have increased by over 13% to $1,025,323. Single family homes have seen the biggest price gains largely due to an increased focus on higher priced properties through the winter.
Going forward, we expect that low supply and high demand will continue to be the factors driving market activity for the foreseeable future. Despite a somewhat unpredictable political environment internationally and locally, general and local economic conditions suggest continued buyer/investor confidence. Whistler’s strong tourism programs combined with Vail Resort's name recognition will ensure continued strong interest in the area. Now more than ever it is important to work with a full time local advisor who can monitor the constantly changing marketplace and advise you in the nuances of our very specialized marketplace. Pat Kelly, President *Based on Whistler Listing System Statistics April, 2017.
At the end of the first quarter, the average value for a single family home in Whistler was $2,623,471. Condominiums also saw a sharp rise in average value to $485,390, while townhomes moved up to $1,062,000. The luxury real estate market, which is defined here as all properties listed at over $2 Million, remains active and has accounted for 12% of all transactions in Whistler so far this year. 5405 STONEBRIDGE DRIVE

Secluded in a rural enclave, this Pemberton estate is truly a legacy in the making. Surrounded by extensive landscaping on a 2.5 acre organic property with unobstructed views from majestic Mount Currie to the Pemberton Icefields, this private luxury estate is still just 5 minutes to the centre of Pemberton and 30 minutes from Whistler and all the amenities of the world-class resort. The buildings were completed in 2009, with the architect choosing a modern post-and beam design that maintains the welcoming feel of a grand farm house, albeit with floor-to-ceiling windows, geothermal heating, and a comfortable interior fitted with modern high end appliances. Basalt and Italian-made limestone tiles support the natural warmth of the timbers, while the one-piece granite fireplace is an attractive conversation piece with unique stone quarried from local rock specifically for this property. Of the 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, 2 are secluded in the wing and 1 (plus loft) is a separate suite, offering a multitude of options for living and guest arrangements. A large chef’s kitchen plus dining and family areas create ideal entertaining spaces for unforgettable parties of any size. Extensive grounds feature sweeping lawns, an in-ground pool, a hot tub, and everything needed for living outdoors in comfort. A gas fire pit, indoor/ outdoor audio system, and subtle landscaped lighting ensure guests can relax outside late during long summer evenings. The property overlooks a small lake that is regularly stocked with rainbow trout and can be accessed via a private dock and sandy beach adjacent to the gardens, a perfect playground for children who are sure to remember time spent here with joy. Whether watching deer parade across the lawns in the early morning light or enjoying the deep red of maple trees in fall, this property enables a deep appreciation for the simple beauty of life in the mountains that should be shared for generations to come.

WHISTLER SOUTH WHERE IT ALL BEGAN

WHISTLER SOUTH IS A HUB
of year-round outdoor activities, steeped in history as Whistler’s first home.
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.

REAL ESTATE FAQ
BUYING AN INVESTMENT PROPERTY IN WHISTLER For many buyers of real estate in Whistler, lifestyle and quality of life are the primary driving forces behind their purchasing decision and the ability to rent and earn cash flow are just an extra bonus. As such, those looking to invest in the area are usually looking for some level of personal use from the property in addition to earning revenues from long-term or nightly rentals.
Rental Property Types If you are purchasing a property to gain rental income from nightly rentals, you will be looking primarily at Phase 1 and 2 properties. Shared ownership properties are also an option. Phase 1 properties allow unrestricted owner use. They can be lived in full-time or rented out on a long, short, or nightly basis. These properties tend to be condos and townhomes in the Village, Benchlands, and Creekside areas. These properties are often best suited for those who will spend regular weekends in Whistler enjoying the lifestyle. Phase 2 properties on the other hand, restrict owner use to 56 days per year - 28 days in the summer and 28 days in the winter. As a result, this option is best suited for those looking to generate revenues and who plan to visit Whistler occasionally. When the property is not being used by the owner, the property is rented out through the designated rental management company for the building and owners earn a percentage of the revenues from the rental pool. These properties are usually hotel-style condos and as such, most of the well-known hotel brands in Whistler are Phase 2 properties. Shared ownership properties also offer an opportunity to earn revenues from nightly rentals. Quartershare properties, for example, offer owners 13 weeks of use per year - one week every four on a rotational basis. When the owner is not using their suite, it is rented out through the designated rental management company and, much like a Phase 2 property, the owner earns a portion of the revenues from the rental pool for those days.
Costs of an Investment Property Costs vary from complex to complex and include a monthly strata fee, annual property taxes, and a Tourism Whistler Fee. In addition buyers must also factor in their mortgage payments as well as any applicable usage or cleaning fees, and all typical costs associated with property ownership including repairs and maintenance. Property and/or rental management fees vary from company to company and also need to be factored in.
Investment Property Returns The returns on investment properties can range from property to property and will also vary depending on how much personal owner use there is. As a result, it is best to speak to your local RealtorÂŽ to discuss the individual properties you are interested in. If you are looking for an investment property, it is important to choose a knowledgeable local agent who understands the unique rental zoning of Whistler's resort properties so that you can ensure that the property you are purchasing is best-suited for your intended use and that you are making the best financial decisions possible.

WHISTLER CENTRE

JUSTA JESKOVA
“

FAMILY-FRIENDLY LIVING
and recreation, steps away from the heart of the Village.
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.

WHISTLER FAQ WHO LIVES IN WHISTLER? The Whistler community is comprised of a diverse range of people. Visitors to the area come from all over the world to ski, snowboard, mountain bike, and enjoy everything the beautiful landscape has to offer. But who actually lives in Whistler? Who are the people left when all the tourists have returned home? The population of Whistler is estimated to be made up of about 10,000 permanent residents with an additional 2,700+ seasonal residents, and over 11,500 second home owners. While the total daily population of the resort fluctuates from season to season, on peak holiday weekends, the population, including visitors, can swell to over 50,000. Although Whistler is a melting pot for worldwide travellers, many long-time locals have the same story of their arrival to the resort - they came for a season or vacationed here regularly, fell in love with the place, and never left. Whistler is also a place that draws people who are looking to settle down to raise a family while enjoying an active, outdoor lifestyle. It is no surprise that Whistler is home to some seriously cool kids - and it is not hard to see why. Whistler kids tend to be well acquainted with nature and are as comfortable in the dirt, on the water, and on the snow as they are at home on the couch. Surrounded by natural beauty, immersed in an active lifestyle, and supported by a close-knit community, Whistler's kids have many opportunities that cultivate creativity, athleticism, a passion for nature, and environmental stewardship. Seasonal residents are another integral part of the Whistler community. Twice a year, before the summer and winter seasons, a new batch of fresh faces make their way to the resort to ski, snowboard, bike, or escape. They may stay for anything from six months to a year or more, with some even falling in love with the area and making the smooth transition to long-term local. A final important component of the Whistler population is the second home owners. Although they may call somewhere else home, their true calling is the mountains. These weekend warriors make the trip to Whistler at the first hint of snowfall and spend the majority of their weekends here throughout the year. Over time, these second homeowners become intertwined with the full-time local population by joining community groups, supporting local causes, and embodying what it means to be a Whistler local. To millions of visitors Whistler is a dream holiday destination, a mountain resort tucked away in the coastal mountains of British Columbia. But to an ever growing number of people, it is also the ideal setting for a home. The lifestyle options Whistler has to offer are unique and plentiful, giving people from all walks of life plenty of reasons to stay.

THE HEART OF THE WHISTLER LIFESTYLE

“
UNPARALLELED ACCESS
to Whistler’s recreation activities, right on nature’s doorstep.
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 as well as 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 easy walking distance. 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, specialty stores, nightclubs, restaurants, patios, and cafés offering each passerby a chance to linger as long as their hearts desire. 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.

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. Situated just above Rainbow you will find Baxter Creek, another new development and an enclave of luxury properties that showcase breathtaking vistas and forest surroundings.
Adjacent to White Gold is Spruce Grove, a familyoriented neighbourhood with a community centre, sports fields, a playground, and Lost Lake trail access. Spruce Grove offers a mix of employee housing, townhomes, duplexes, and single-family homes in addition to luxury properties. As you travel north, the next community is Green Lake Estates. Dominated by multi-million dollar homes and the award-winning Nicklaus North Golf Course, this is where you will find some of the most impressive properties in the area. As you keep travelling north you reach Alpine Meadows and Emerald Estates – the original locals’ neighbourhoods. Here you will find a mix of townhomes, traditional chalets, and modern

WHISTLER IS SO MUCH MORE THAN A WINTER RESORT Whistler is known worldwide for being home to one of the world’s best ski resorts, but there is so much more to Whistler. A common story amongst Whistler locals is that, although they originally came to the resort for the winter, they stayed because of the summer. With a plethora of activities, events, and festivals that multiply with each passing year, it is no surprise why. Underneath the snow of the ski trails, hidden in the trees, lies a huge network of mountain bike trails otherwise known as the Whistler Bike Park. While Whistler is consistently voted the number one ski resort in North America, the bike park is also one of the best mountain bike resorts in the world. In the summer, the Village and mountain completely transform into a biker’s paradise, and even those familiar with the area might not recognise it at first. Believe it or not, when summer comes to Whistler there is sunshine, and a lot of it. You could be forgiven for associating the mountains with snow, but once the sun comes out, temperatures in the summer can reach the high 30s and stay consistently high throughout the season. The frozen lakes (now thawed) become hot spots for locals and visitors looking to cool off in the water. After the huge number of events in the winter, it could be hard to imagine summer topping that; however, you will find an abundance of events throughout the season. Expect everything from outdoor celebrations, concerts, music festivals, sporting events, yoga festivals, beer festivals, and so much more. Each week brings with it new surprises and things to do. The summer just keeps giving, and before long you may even be having more fun than in the winter. Although the long lift lines may be gone, that doesn’t mean there are less people – far from it. In fact, in recent years the summer in Whistler has actually seen more visitors than winter. Of the approximately 2.7 million visitors who come to Whistler each year, about 44% come in the winter and 56% visit in the summer. However, unlike the winter where visitors and locals alike are clustered on the slopes and around the Village, in the summer you will find people spread from one end of the Valley to the other, making it feel much quieter. Whether you are into biking, hiking, golfing, paddling, relaxing, sun-bathing, exploring the Village, or taking advantage of one of the many summer adventures available, summer is the time to get outside, live life, take in nature, and most importantly, have fun.

ESCAPE TO A MOUNTAIN PARADISE
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 Lake, Garibaldi, Joffre Lakes and Nairn Falls Parks 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 Increased awareness, affordability and a relaxed lifestyle attracted buyers to Pemberton in record numbers in 2016. Recreational enthusiasts, first time home buyers, investors, and those looking for a return to a country lifestyle flocked to the area, increasing overall activity levels in 2016 by 60% as compared to 2015. Much like the other real estate markets in the Sea to Sky Corridor, Pemberton continues to deal with a limited number of properties available for sale while, at the same time, buyer interest in the area continues to grow. Although some new high density and low density opportunities are expected to come to the market in the next 12 to 18 months, the real estate market in Pemberton will continue to favour sellers, at least for the short term. We expect that prices will continue to move upwards, tempered only by affordability concerns. Throughout the first quarter of 2017, the number of transactions occurring in the Pemberton market continues to be relatively consistent. However, values have risen in all sub-markets in the area as buyers continue to pursue more affordable options in both the village and surrounding areas. Single family home transaction values have risen 12% since the start of the year and now sit at $715,000. The average value for a condominium now sits at $272,000, and the average townhouse

PEMBERTONVALLEYREALESTATE.COM
transaction now starts at $442,000. It is important to note that individual properties may deviate from this significantly as these numbers are based on limited sales data at this time of the year. Interest in larger, rural properties remains strong; however, those looking for this type of property may find little satisfaction as those few properties that do come to market sell quickly if properly priced and there is significant pent up demand. Pemberton is a small, dynamic, and highly nuanced marketplace and requires the services of a full time local expert to dig out the best opportunities in a timely manner. Whether buying or selling, it is important to stay in touch with your advisor to ensure that you are up-to-date on what is happening so you can be ready to make the best real estate decisions.

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 doesn’t 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. JUSTA JESKOVA
