Great Price on Guard Gated New Homes!

The pricing on Las Vegas new homes has been drastically reduced over the past few years (along with the rest of the inventory in the Las Vegas real estate market), and it is amazing how affordable some of the luxury new home developments have become. Dunhill Homes has two gorgeous neighborhoods in lush guard gated golf course communities, Tuscany Village and Rhodes Ranch, which are offering some surprising values.

Rhodes Ranch is located in the popular southwest area of Las Vegas near Summerlin. One and two story floor plans in this community range from 1532 sf to over 3600 sf, and are priced from $185k to $329k. The Rhodes Ranch community offers residents a 35,000 square foot recreation center with fitness facility and resort style pools, a Fun Zone Water Park for the kids, an award-winning golf course, and miles of walking trails. The Rhodes Ranch Golf Club, a par 72 championship course named a “Best Value” by Vegas Golfer Magazine, was designed by renowned architect Ted Robinson. Standard features include: Energy Star Certification, granite slab countertops, rich beechwood cabinetry, Whirlpool appliance package, front yard landscaping and paver walks and driveway.

Tuscany Village is located in the southeast area of the Las Vegas Valley, adjacent to the world-renowned Lake Las Vegas master planned community. One and two story floor plans in this community range from 1364 sf to over 2600 sf, and are priced from $130k to $260k. Residents can play the Tuscany Championship Golf Course, work out at the 35,000 sf recreation center with fitness center and resort style pools, or walk for miles among open trails, crystal clear lakes and palm trees. Standard features at Tuscany Village include: Energy Star Certification, granite slab countertops, rich beechwood cabinetry, Whirlpool appliance package, front yard landscaping and paver walks and driveway.

Both communities have standing inventory, or you can pick your own lot and floor plan and have a home built exactly the way you want it from the ground up. And in addition to the low pricing, Dunhill is currently offering buyers between $10k to 20k in incentives that can be used towards closing costs or design upgrades.

December is the "Black Friday" of Real Estate

For the past three years clients have been telling us they want a “steal of a deal” on Las Vegas real estate. So how come most of them stop looking in December? All month long, December is the Black Friday of real estate!

Savvy shoppers know that December is the best time of the year to buy property for a number of reasons. And that has never been more true of homes for sale in Las Vegas at the end of 2011 with interest rates and prices at an all time low already.

1. Motivated sellers! Many sellers will take their home off the market until after the holidays. This indicates a seller who is less motivated to sell. A seller who keeps their home on the market and easily available for showings wants to make that deal.

2. More negotiating room! Banks and other companies holding Las Vegas foreclosures want to clear their books so their year- end bottom line looks better to stockholders.

3. Less competition! There is less competition from other buyers who are distracted with holiday shopping and company parties. Or they may be waiting for more inventory to come on the market with the New Year. Yes, there will definitely be more listings after the first of the year, but again, these are likely sellers who are not as motivated to sell and may have until late spring or early summer to move.

4. Undivided attention! Real estate agents are less busy during December and have more time to hunt down that really special deal on your behalf. Listing agents are more willing to present lower offers to their sellers. Real estate agents may literally become your best friends during these slow months as they try to keep their sales moving.

5. Easier financing! Federal regulators have been threatening to tighten up mortgage guidelines yet again in 2012, and may also raise the amount of down payment required for FHA buyers. Not to mention that interest rates may also rise. A small percentage of increase in the interest rate means less buying power.

So this holiday season you have a choice: plan for the holidays, or take advantage of real estate’s annual Black Friday deals and plan for your future.
