North Las Vegas

The valley's fastest-building frontier, and its best value.

North Las Vegas is a separate incorporated city, not a Las Vegas suburb, with its own government, its own police and fire departments, and one of the valley's biggest concentrations of new construction. A decade of master-planned building, Aliante, Eldorado, and the Villages at Tule Springs among them, has put brand-new homes within reach of buyers priced out of the rest of the valley.

Aliante wraps a golf course, a casino, and Craig Ranch Regional Park's 170 acres into one address, and the northern rim keeps pushing further into open desert with fresh subdivisions behind it. Nellis Air Force Base and the North Las Vegas VA Medical Center anchor the east side, and the fast-growing Apex industrial corridor is bringing jobs that didn't exist here a decade ago.

The infrastructure keeps catching up to the growth: new retail corridors on the west side, and quick I-15 and 215 access to the rest of the valley. Builders release here at more price tiers than almost anywhere else in Southern Nevada, which is what makes it the first stop for buyers chasing the most square footage for the money.

Before you visit a model

Talk to me before you walk into a model home. Not after.

Every builder has a rep in the model home. That rep is good at their job, and their job is the builder’s number, not yours. The day you sign the guest card, most builders treat you as their customer, and your room to bring in your own agent gets thinner.

So here is the rule that saves my clients the most money: text me the area or the community you want to see before you go. Not an address, just where you are headed. I will tell you what that builder is doing right now, what is negotiable this month, and what to never sign on a first visit. It costs you nothing and it keeps me on your side of the table.

North Las Vegas has one of the deepest new-build benches in the valley, and incentives move fast between builders and phases. Text me the community before you tour and I'll tell you who's giving right now.
