Las Vegas' Summerlin Gets Involved

Summerlin, one of the fastest growing master-planned communities in the country, has decided to get involved within the community! The Women's Club in the area is planning to kick-off their annual Shade Tree Shelter fundraiser function on November 5, 2005 at the JW Marriott Resort.

The event, which will begin at 11:30 a.m., will include everything from a fashion show to entertainment, food, and plenty of fun! A silent auction will also take place, where participants can bid on such items as jewelry and spa packages. All proceeds from the event will go directly toward the Shade Tree Shelter.

Laurie Heggemeir, a Women's Club of Summerlin member, spoke on behalf of the group stating that, "The Shade Tree Shelter is committed to improving the lives of Las Vegas residents who are enduring difficult circumstances. We invite the community, not just members of the club, to support our efforts to serve this deserving and needy organization."

Tom Warden, an executive at the Howard Hughes Corporation, who is one the fundraiser's largest sponsors, said that, "We acknowledge and support the Women's Club of Summerlin for its many philanthropic contributions, not only in our community but throughout the Las Vegas Valley." He was also quoted as saying, "The club is one of the most active groups in Summerlin and continuously strives to improve the lives of the less fortunate."

The Community of Summerlin has many Las Vegas homes, neighborhoods, condos, and land options from which to choose, with pricing beginning from the low $200's. There are several businesses, parks, walking paths, shopping destinations, restaurants, and schools that make up the continually-growing master-planned area.

Tickets for the Shade Tree Shelter event are priced at $75.00 per person and one can either call 702.360.6512, or the Peterson Group at REMAX Associates for more information.

Rhodes Homes Touts "Tantara" Community In Southwest Las Vegas

It's always encouraging to find a sales agent who is proud of the product they are selling, and at "Tantara", a Rhodes Homes neighborhood, that is just the case! Linda Peraldo had nothing but positive things to say about the community located in the southwestern Las Vegas real estate market!

Linda recently gloated that, "We added 50 standard features that you don't normally see in new construction!" She also talked about the builder's effort to remain environmentally-friendly by using special hot water pumps, stating that, "We live in the desert and we need to conserve water. This device saves time, as well as water." Low-e windows are also a standard feature in these Las Vegas homes, which really go the extra mile in order to insure that each "Tantara" resident is as energy-conscious as possible.

"On the inside, we've done more. For example, since taller baseboards look better, we have standard baseboards that are 6 1/2 inches high," said Linda. These little extras really make the difference in quality within a home according to Peraldo. She simply states that, "We could have gotten by without the extras, but we wanted to build homes differently. And the people who have moved into Tantara have definitely noticed the difference."

The Las Vegas homes range in size from 1,734 to more than 2,400 square feet. Prices for the residences begin at $339,990 and vary depending on floor plan and lot size.

Allure Las Vegas Goes Visibly Vertical

In the Las Vegas high-rise market, there are the "wannabe vertical projects" (high-rises announced but not yet financed or under construction) and the "visibly vertical projects". To qualify as visibly vertical simply requires the development to be financed and under construction.

Such is the case with the Allure Las Vegas. Site work began in early August of this year and the official groundbreaking ceremony took place last month. You can view the progress of the architecturally stunning pair of 40-story towers at Sahara Avenue and Fairfield, just a block west of the infamous Strip.

Sales have been strong, with Tower I being better than 90% sold out. Pre-construction pricing starts from the $300's and Tower II will begin releasing units for sale this quarter. Completion is estimated to be Fall 2007.

The developer is Fifield Companies, a Chicago-based real estate development firm.

Las Vegas' Newport Lofts Makes Purchasing A High-Rise More Possible!

One of Las Vegas real estate's most reputable high-rise projects, the "Newport Lofts", has recently found yet another way to appeal to future purchasers! The development has just re-structured their financing requirements, now making purchasing much more flexible for Las Vegas high-rise buyers!

The project will consist of 168 luxury loft-style residences, each ranging from 912 to more than 3,000 square feet. Unique roof-top amenities include a state-of-the-art fitness center, fitness track, Newport Lounge, swimming pool, jacuzzi, and sundeck with 360-degree views of the entire city!
