Buying vs. Building Your Bear Lake Getaway

Are you dreaming of having your very own Bear Lake getaway by this summer? The big question is: should you buy an existing home or build your dream getaway from scratch? Both options have their perks, and the right choice depends on your timeline, budget, and vision for your ideal Bear Lake lifestyle. Here’s some food for thought:

Buying an Existing Home
If you’re hoping to enjoy Bear Lake as soon as possible, think summer 2025, buying an existing home is the way to go. Homes that are already built allow you to move in and start creating memories without the wait. Plus, many Bear Lake properties come with the added charm of established landscaping and unique features you can enjoy right away. With the right home, you’ll be ready to hit the beach and take in those famous turquoise views just in time for summer 2025!

Building Your Dream Getaway
Building a home allows you to customize every detail to fit your exact vision—from layout to finishes and everything in between. While building can take longer, it’s a great option if you have specific needs or want to design the perfect escape for you and your family. Keep in mind that planning for permits, materials, and construction timelines is key, especially in Bear Lake. Good news is, we’re here to help!
