School planning

Which Schools Serve a Las Vegas Address?

Ask the district for the address-specific school assignment for the enrollment year, since boundaries change, and confirm it before you buy. Proximity to a school does not guarantee admission; charter, magnet and private schools set their own rules. Check CCSD school zoning · Nevada Report Card

CRIME DATA

How Can You Check Reported Crime Near a Home?

Ask the law-enforcement agency that serves the address for its current reports, and compare places only across the same reporting period, boundary and offense definitions. Missing records do not mean zero crime, the FBI cautions against ranking communities on crime totals alone, and a citywide figure does not describe a particular street.

THIS WEEKEND'S OPEN HOUSES

Planning a move

What Should I Verify Before Moving to The Cliffs?

Budget around the specific home, not a community average. Before you compare the cost of a move to The Cliffs, get these in writing:

  • The parcel's annual assessment, prior-year tax bill and abatement eligibility. A sale alone does not reset Nevada’s tax cap. Nevada tax-abatement rules
  • Lender, insurance and utility quotes for the exact address, plus the association's resale documents and any special assessments.
  • The school assignment for the enrollment year, confirmed with the district.
  • Your tax situation, reviewed by an adviser — California-source income can remain taxable after a move (Franchise Tax Board).
  • Qualifying new residents generally must obtain a Nevada driver’s license and vehicle registration within 30 days. Check the Nevada DMV’s requirements and exceptions for your circumstances.

Inputs are assumptions, not a loan offer, insurance quote or parcel tax calculation. This simplified fixed-rate example applies the selected PMI rate below 20% down; actual mortgage-insurance eligibility, cost and cancellation depend on the loan. Maintenance, utilities, closing costs and special assessments are additional. Review the CFPB housing budget guide and confirm amounts with the relevant providers.

    Oak Leaf Park and Faiss Park are inside the village; Red Rock Canyon’s 13-mile scenic drive is about 17 to 23 minutes west without traffic.

  • Rideshare

    Available throughout Summerlin South for airport runs and evenings out; gated neighborhoods may need a gate code or guest pass.

Quick Answer

How long does it take to close on a home in The Cliffs?

Nevada purchases close through an escrow company rather than an attorney, and the contract sets the closing date. Financed purchases need time for the appraisal and loan approval; cash purchases can close faster. Leave room to review every association’s resale documents.

Quick Answer

What down payment do I need to buy in The Cliffs, Summerlin?

That depends on the loan. Conventional loans up to the 2026 conforming limit ($832,750 for a one-unit home, per FHFA) can start at 3–5% down, and VA loans allow 0% down for eligible borrowers. Every home in The Cliffs’ 89135 plats listed above that limit on September 29, 2026, so jumbo financing applies there; Regency and Jade Ridge listings started lower.

The Cliffs FAQ — 17 Answers

What Do The Cliffs Buyers Most Frequently Ask?

Most Asked

What is the median home price in The Cliffs, Summerlin?

The Cliffs has no published median of its own, and its ZIP figure is a poor stand-in. ZIP 89135, which covers most of Summerlin South, had a median list price of $899,950 and 43 median days on market in NREG’s latest pull of Las Vegas REALTORS MLS data. The Cliffs’ own 89135 homes listed on September 29, 2026 ran from $0.9 million to $2.4 million, and its 89148 neighborhoods from $575,000 (Jade Ridge) to $4,875,000 (Onyx Point).

Is The Cliffs in Summerlin guard-gated?

Most of its neighborhoods are gated. Listing remarks describe Granite Heights, Ironwood, Nova Ridge, Jade Ridge and Onyx Point as gated, and one Ironwood listing calls it guard-gated. Howard Hughes describes Regency, the age-qualified Toll Brothers neighborhood, as staff-gated, and Skystone and Terra Luna as gated. Confirm the access terms for a specific home in its association documents.

What ZIP code is The Cliffs in?

Two: 89135 and 89148. Howard Hughes notes that Terra Luna, Jade Ridge and Onyx Point “fall outside of 89135 and are located along the western edge of 89148” while remaining inside Summerlin; Regency’s listings are in 89148 too. The listings grid on this page covers The Cliffs’ 89135 plats (MLS “Village 16A”); the 89148 neighborhoods have their own pages.

How close is The Cliffs to Red Rock Canyon?

About 17 to 23 minutes (12.3 miles) to the Red Rock Canyon Visitor Center from the middle of the village, by our free-flow road model on OpenStreetMap data, without traffic (October 26, 2026). The Bureau of Land Management puts Red Rock Canyon 17 miles west of the Strip on Charleston Boulevard/State Route 159, with a 13-mile scenic drive.

What schools serve The Cliffs, Summerlin?

The Clark County School District assigns public schools by address, so look up the exact home with CCSD’s zoning search and see each school’s state data on the Nevada Report Card. Two CCSD campuses sit inside the village, per Howard Hughes: Faiss Middle School (opened 2007) and Shelley Berkley Elementary School (opened 2017). Sitting in the village does not by itself make a school the assigned one.

What are HOA fees in The Cliffs?

They vary by neighborhood, and we do not publish a range because we have not verified one. Most Cliffs neighborhoods are gated, and Regency runs a clubhouse of more than 16,000 square feet for its residents, per Howard Hughes, so dues differ widely. The resale package for the exact home lists every association, its current dues and any transfer fees.

How does The Cliffs compare to The Mesa, Summerlin?

The Mesa is the village directly north. Its listed homes span more decades — built 2006–2023, against 2016–2022 for The Cliffs’ current listings — and its 37 listings on September 29, 2026 ran from $499,900 to $3.7 million. The Cliffs’ 89135 plats listed 11 homes from $0.9 million to $2.4 million that day. Howard Hughes dates The Mesa to 2004 and The Cliffs to 2015.

When was The Cliffs built and what is the architecture like?

Howard Hughes began developing The Cliffs in 2015, though its first project, Faiss Middle School, opened in 2007. Homes listed in September 2026 were built from 2016 to 2022. Howard Hughes describes the style as “rugged contemporary,” with horizontal roof lines and earthy colors, on elevated ground with views of the valley and Strip to the east and the Spring Mountains to the west.

What are property taxes like in The Cliffs?

Clark County taxes each parcel at its tax district’s rate, so get the current bill for the exact home from the Clark County Treasurer. Nevada caps annual increases on a primary residence at 3% under NRS 361.4723 once the owner claims it; until then, the general cap of up to 8% applies (NRS 361.4722). Nevada has no personal income tax.

What neighborhoods are in The Cliffs?

Howard Hughes lists Regency and Granite Heights by Toll Brothers, Nova Ridge and Terra Luna by Pardee (later Tri Pointe), Jade Ridge by Taylor Morrison (launched by William Lyon Homes), Skystone by Woodside and Onyx Point by Richmond American; listing remarks add Ironwood by Toll Brothers. Regency, Jade Ridge, Onyx Point and Terra Luna are in ZIP 89135’s neighbor, 89148.

Is there new construction available in The Cliffs?

Not from a builder’s sales office: The Cliffs is not on Summerlin’s list of actively selling villages (checked September 30, 2026), and Howard Hughes said in 2021 that the four neighborhoods then selling were “the final opportunity to buy new homes” there. Homes listed in September 2026 were built 2016–2022, so expect a nearly new resale. Toll Brothers is selling new homes at Ascension in The Peaks village.

How many homes sold in The Cliffs last year?

MLS records show 79 closings from September 2025 through August 2026: 41 on its 89135 plats (40 on “Village 16A” plats plus 1 on a plat named “Granite Heights”) and the rest in 89148 — Regency 21 (median $875,000), Terra Luna 7 ($1,014,000), Jade Ridge 6 ($567,750) and Onyx Point 4 ($2,000,000). Samples are small; for a specific home, compare recent sales in the same plat.

How far is The Cliffs from the Las Vegas Strip?

About 15 to 20 minutes (12.6 miles) to the Bellagio and about 16 to 20 minutes (12.7 miles) to Harry Reid International Airport’s Terminal 1 from the middle of the village, by our free-flow road model on OpenStreetMap data, without traffic (October 26, 2026). Rush hour on the 215 Beltway adds time.
