Are you an American thinking about buying property in Whistler? You’re not alone. Whistler has long been a favorite destination for U.S. buyers seeking mountain lifestyle, strong rental income, and long-term value.
But buying in Canada as a U.S. citizen isn’t as simple as hopping across the border and signing a deal. There are important differences in financing, taxation, ownership structure, and how much personal use you can enjoy, especially with Phase 1 and Phase 2 zoning.
Dean Linnell specializes in helping American buyers navigate the cross-border buying process with confidence. From connecting you with U.S.-friendly Canadian lenders to helping you understand withholding tax rules, CRA filing requirements, and GST implications, Dean Linnell walks you through every step. No guesswork, no surprises.
Whether you’re looking for a luxury Whistler ski-in/ski-out chalet, a hotel condo with passive income potential, or a Whistler vacation property you can enjoy with family and friends, Dean Linnell ensures the property aligns with both your lifestyle goals and investment strategy.
With over 27 years of experience and a deep understanding of what U.S. buyers need, Dean Linnell is here to make the process smooth, informed, and profitable.
