Eagle: The "Smart Money" Move

Why pay $2,000/sqft in Vail Village when you can get a single-family home, a yard, and warmer weather for 60% less? Welcome to the Banana Belt.

Where to Buy: The 3 Micro-Markets

1. Eagle Ranch

The Profile: A master-planned community that rivals anything in Denver. Sidewalks, pocket parks, and the Arnold Palmer-designed Eagle Ranch Golf Club.

The Buyer: Young families and retirees who want "walkable suburban" living in the mountains.

👉 Browse Eagle Ranch Homes

2. The Terrace

The Profile: Located on the north hillside, offering the best sunset views in the valley. Lots are steeper, but the privacy is unmatched.

The Buyer: Locals moving up from condos who prioritize view corridors over flat yards.

👉 Browse The Terrace

3. Historic Broadway

The Profile: The original town grid. Victorian farmhouses mixed with modern ADUs. Walkable to Yeti's Grind and the Post Office.

The Buyer: Investors and purists who want character and zero HOA fees.

👉 Browse Old Town

The Commuter Reality

Living down-valley used to be considered a "commute." Now, with the expansion of remote work and the EGE airport, it's considered a strategic advantage.

🚗 To Beaver Creek Parking 20 Mins
🚗 To Vail Transportation Center 32 Mins
✈️ To Eagle Regional Airport (EGE) 8 Mins
🛒 To Costco (Gypsum) 6 Mins
