I’d look for a good walk behind snowblower right now, to get you through this winter. Get a decent one - I recommend Ariens snowblowers. They last forever. (No matter what brand you get, look at the snow chute controls - make sure they stay where you put them. A good blower will launch snow with considerable force. I also prefer metal chutes instead of plastic, because if it freezes, you can warm it up with a torch.)
If you want a good tractor for snow and mowing, don’t rush your purchase. A cheap one won’t last - do some research on different brands, and see what’s around you for dealers. Don’t necessarily buy one from the local big-box store. Buy a slightly better/fancier model
The type of snow, and the type of lot will have a lot to do with it too. You might be interested Kay with a snow blade for the tractor, and a walk behind blower for cleanup/pushback.
Unless you have really wide sidewalks/walkways, you might find that you need a walk behind anyways.

The tractors from the big box stores may even be cheaper versions of the name brands too. Go to an actual dealership.

That’s so annoying that they do this. Found that out with some Dewalt tools.
