Harry Hutton and John Biggs, of Kelowna, can’t wait for the start of the Winter Olympics.
When the world’s attention turns to Whistler next February, this savvy B.C. business will be poised to make the most of it. Sotheby’s Okanagan Collection team will spend the three weeks of the games in Whistler showcasing their signature British Columbia vineyard and recreational properties.
The Okanagan Collection www.okanagancollection.com) portfolio will be showcased on the ground floor of the Fairmont Chateau Whistler facing the Blackcomb gondola, placing it in prime position for 2010 visitors who fall in love with beautiful British Columbia and want their own perfect piece of it.
During the games, VIP guests at the Chateau Whistler will receive gift boxes of B.C. chocolates, wines and glossy info about Sotheby’s International Realty Canada’s luxury properties.
“We believe that international buyers will be drawn to B.C.’s recreational lifestyle and find property prices relatively affordable on a world scale,” says Christa Frosch of the Okanagan Collection. “We’re marketing ski properties, but also Okanagan homes that are near interior ski resorts, like Big White, Silver Star, and Apex Alpine.”
The Okanagan Collection was launched a year ago in response to the rise in worldwide demand for luxury real estate in the area, followed by the Vineyard Collection in the spring.
