Summerlin
Talk to your Summerlin neighbors before you choose a village.
One conversation, no obligation, and an honest read on what your village choice means for your purchase or your sale.
Spanning 22,500 acres along the western rim of the Las Vegas Valley, Summerlin is the gold standard of master-planned community design, developed by The Howard Hughes Corporation with a decades-long commitment to building infrastructure before homes and quality that compounds over time. Home to more than 130,000 residents, across 25 villages and four community associations, it has consistently outperformed the broader Las Vegas real estate market across multiple cycles. Closed sales and pricing by zip code are in the Summerlin market report, updated quarterly.
A real estate license requires only 120 hours of coursework. 70% of agents in Las Vegas close 0 to 1 transaction per year. Most agents who work in Summerlin have never closed a transaction in more than one or two of its 25 villages. No two villages share the same school boundaries, HOA rules, architectural character, trail access, view corridors, or price trajectory.
An agent without deep local transaction history across all four associations will not price your home correctly or match you to the right community. Agent production is publicly verifiable on Zillow, where data is linked directly to MLS records. Social media activity is not proof of local expertise. Always verify actual closed Summerlin transactions before choosing who represents you here. The transaction table at the bottom of this page shows every one of ours.
Tom and Serena Heuser have lived in Summerlin for over 22 years, calling The Hills, The Vistas, and The Paseos home.
They have dedicated their careers to this community, combining two-plus decades of local residency with a transaction record that spans every zip code and every village in the master plan. When you work with Tom and Serena, you are not hiring agents who sell in Summerlin. You are hiring neighbors who know it from the inside out.

130,000+, and growing with new villages still being built.
The Four Community Associations
Buying in the wrong village for your lifestyle is one of the most common and most expensive mistakes Summerlin buyers make. Villages differ in ways that are not obvious from a weekend drive-through: whether streets are guard-gated, privately gated, or non-gated; whether front yards are lush grass or desert-scape. In more than 20 of Summerlin's 25 villages, homes have sold above $1 million across over 100 neighborhoods. Tom and Serena know where Summerlin luxury homes are located, village by village.
They differ in whether architecture skews traditional Spanish or contemporary modern; how close you are to the 215 for your commute; which private or charter schools are zoned nearby; and how much trail access is built into your daily walk out the front door. Tom and Serena have closed transactions across every association. They know which village fits your life before you fall in love with the wrong one.

Why Tom and Serena Love Calling Summerlin Home: 22+ Years of Community Life
Why Summerlin Stands Apart
Summerlin is not the result of a developer filling lots. It is the result of a decades-long commitment by The Howard Hughes Corporation to build a community where infrastructure comes before construction, parks come before homes, and quality compounds over time rather than diminishing. The result is a community that has consistently outperformed Henderson, North Las Vegas, and the broader Las Vegas Valley across multiple real estate cycles.
200+ Miles of Interconnected Trails
Planned to reach 300+ miles. Pedestrian bridges and underpasses connect every village, park, and school so residents can walk or cycle from their front door all the way to Red Rock Canyon safely.
300+ Parks Throughout the Master Plan
From the 18-acre Gardens Park to intimate pocket parks in every village. The parks were built before the homes, a deliberate statement about community priorities.
9 Golf Courses
Including TPC Summerlin, Tom Fazio's private course at The Summit Club, and two Arnold Palmer courses at Red Rock Country Club.
26 Public, Private, and Charter Schools
Including Bishop Gorman, Faith Lutheran, The Meadows School, and Adelson School, alongside top-rated Clark County public schools throughout every association. School boundaries vary by village and matter at resale.
Downtown Summerlin and Urban Convenience
Downtown Summerlin is not simply a shopping center. It is a walkable urban district at the heart of the master plan, a community gathering space as much as a retail destination. Beyond Downtown, neighborhood convenience centers including Canyon Pointe, Trails Village Center, and the retail corridors along the 215 Beltway put Whole Foods, Sprouts, Life Time Fitness, boutique studios, medical services, and specialty retail within five to ten minutes of virtually every front door in the master plan.
New Construction in Summerlin: Actively Building Across Multiple Villages
New Construction in Summerlin
Summerlin remains one of the most active new construction markets in the Las Vegas Valley, alongside active programs in Henderson and North Las Vegas. Multiple villages across Summerlin West and Summerlin South have active building programs, with homes ranging from attainable single-family designs to guard-gated luxury estates.
The Peaks: Ascension
The most prominent active new construction community in Summerlin South. Guard-gated luxury by Toll Brothers and Pulte Homes across 20 floor plans. Priced from the high $1M's to $2.5M+. Contact Serena before you visit, the builder requires agent registration on your very first visit. Walk in without representation and you permanently forfeit your right to an advocate for the entire transaction.
Summerlin West
Multiple active builder programs in the 89138 zip code across Kestrel, Kestrel Commons, Grand Park, and La Madre Peaks. A wide range of price points and home types actively building. Contact Serena before your first visit to any sales office.
Tom and Serena are new construction specialists with 50+ builder closings overall and 24+ in Summerlin alone. New construction incentives have averaged about $43,000, and on a recent purchase near $1.8 million we negotiated roughly $235,000 across builder incentives, upgrades, design center credits and a rate buydown.

Age-Restricted 55+ Living
Summerlin offers five distinct age-qualified 55+ communities across two associations, each with its own character, amenity set, and price point.

Why Work With Tom and Serena in Summerlin
Tom and Serena have closed over 350 transactions across all four Summerlin community associations. That is not a general Las Vegas production number. It is Summerlin-specific, village-by-village expertise that directly affects your outcome whether you are buying, selling, or exploring new construction anywhere across the master plan.
For Buyers
No two Summerlin villages are the same, and the differences go far beyond price. Guard-gated, gated or non-gated. Grass-heavy front yards or desert landscape. Spanish tile or contemporary flat roof. A short walk to a top private school or a public school boundary that affects both your daily life and your resale value years later. Trail access that connects seamlessly to the broader network or a village where you drive everywhere. Whether you are drawn to Summerlin South, Summerlin West, Summerlin North, or considering new construction, an agent who has only closed a handful of transactions here will guess at these differences. Tom and Serena have lived here for 22 years and closed over 350 transactions across every corner of the master plan. That knowledge protects you before you sign anything.
For Sellers
Pricing a home in Summerlin South against comps from Summerlin North, or a guard-gated street against a gated, or non-gated one two blocks away, is a mistake that costs sellers money. Buyers pay premiums for views, gate access, architectural style, school proximity, and trail connectivity, and they discount for the absence of those things. An agent without village-level expertise will overprice to win your listing, watch it sit, and ask for price reductions three weeks later. Tom has listed and sold nearly 350 homes, 99% of them within the original listing agreement. That discipline is built on knowing exactly what comparable sales support in your specific village, not just your zip code. Learn more about selling with Tom.
