P<\/span>roduced by MGM French Properties, the French Alpine developer which has been building and supplying ski apartments to Britons for more than half a century, the buyers’ guide aims to help individual buyers and families to define their priorities and make the right choice much easier.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

10 Points to consider<\/h2>\n

Access<\/h3>\n

Would I prefer to drive less or more than 90 minutes from the airport nearest to the ski resort, or would I want to be sure of good public transport links?<\/p>\n

Style<\/h3>\n

Does a purpose-built ski resort appeal to me or would I rather buy in an authentic Alpine village?<\/p>\n

Skiing<\/h3>\n

Do I want a ski-in\/ski-out property or is it more important to be close to the shops and facilities of a town or village?<\/p>\n

Slopes<\/h3>\n

Do I want easy access to daring black runs, gentler slopes better suited to my young family, or both?<\/p>\n

Altitude<\/h3>\n

Is it important that I stay in a high altitude location with \u2018guaranteed\u2019 snow during the season or, being an older person, would I feel more comfortable at a lower altitude?<\/p>\n

Fun<\/h3>\n

Do I want to enjoy lots of other winter sports activities, or will I just ski?<\/p>\n

Summer<\/h3>\n

If I stay in the summer, will I want good hiking, biking or climbing on the doorstep, or fishing, golf, tennis or paragliding within easy reach?<\/p>\n

Children<\/h3>\n

Will I require childcare and activities for young children or local facilities geared to the needs of teenagers?<\/p>\n

Evenings<\/h3>\n

Would I like a lively apr\u00e8s ski scene on the doorstep and\/or easy access to attractive bars and restaurants?<\/p>\n

Budget<\/h3>\n

What I can I afford to spend on buying a property?<\/p>\n

Create you own brief<\/h2>\n

Armed with these criteria you can give a very specific brief on your ideal ski properties, helping the firm selling them to suggest which ones most closely match your requirements.<\/p>\n
