Delivering on Housing

The 2027 Housing Strategic Plan, adopted in 2017, is a goal of acquiring an additional 1,000 deed restricted units by the year 2027 to help to reach the goal of maintaining and sustaining homes for residences within the community. The most recent community housing project, Residences at Main Vail created rental homes for Eagle County locals and all 72 homes were fully occupied by December 2023.

Public-private partnership proved successful, and the Town of Vail and Triumph Development have since then completed the entitlement process for the redevelopment of Timber Ridge which will bring 294+/- residential options for an anticipated opening in the 2025-26 winter season. With a multi-pronged approach to meeting the housing goal, the town’s buy-down program and Vail InDEED are aimed at increasing the number of homes to be restricted to house employees for years to come. Currently with 1,040 deed restricted homes, the Town is on track to meet the 2027 goal.

The Town of Vail has five completed for-sale developments, all convenient to the free Town bus system.

Units in these developments are sold only to buyers who are qualified through the town's lottery process. Sale prices for these units range from approximately $175,000 to $810,000 depending on the type and location of the unit and are announced as they become available via a Community Housing Lottery. Applications are customized by each home that becomes available and the process follows that of the Town of Vail Employee Housing Guidelines.
