Brown Ranch Development Plan

Brown Ranch in Steamboat Springs is being developed by the Yampa Valley Housing Authority to increase the number of affordable rental and ownership options for Steamboat Springs locals. It is envisioned to include up to 2,300 housing units, including apartments, condos, duplexes, and single-family homes. Construction will take place in two phases. The first will build 1,200 units by 2030; the second will provide another 1,100 units in the following decade.

The units will be pretty dense on smaller lots, but each will be within two to three blocks of parks and open space. Current neighborhood plans show that there will be an extensive trail system that connects with core Steamboat Springs trails leading into town. Additionally, they've proposed to include relevant commercial spaces like a grocery store and daycare to serve the development and reduce trips into town.

Buying & Renting in Brown Ranch

To qualify to buy or rent in Brown Ranch, Steamboat Springs, you must be part of the local workforce or have retired after working in Steamboat for at least five years. Applicants must also meet local average median income requirements.

Brown Ranch real estate will be in high demand. Units are not guaranteed, even if you meet the qualifying requirements. Given the anticipated demand, there may be a random selection process for qualified tenants and buyers.

All sales and rentals will be overseen by the Yampa Valley Housing Authority, but we're here to help. We're in the business of helping people achieve their housing goals. We follow the Brown Ranch development very closely and will be happy to address any questions you might have after beginning the process with YVHA or share our insight on other affordable places to live near Routt County.
