How do I find a top real estate agent in The Ridges?+

What does a The Ridges real estate agent cost?+

In Nevada, total real estate commission is set in the listing agreement and is typically split between the listing and buyer's brokerages. Following the 2024 NAR settlement, buyers and sellers each negotiate compensation independently in their own representation agreements. Stephen will walk through every fee in writing before you sign anything.

Do you represent buyers, sellers, or both in The Ridges?+

Both. Roughly half of Stephen's annual volume is buyer representation and half is listing representation. Dual-representation transactions are disclosed in writing to all parties as required by Nevada Revised Statutes 645.252.

What's the current The Ridges market like?+

As of today, the GLVAR MLS shows 100 active The Ridges listings priced from $1,600 – $11,500,000, with a median asking price of $632,500. Roughly 134 The Ridges homes have closed through the MLS in the last 12 months. Stephen will run a free comparative market analysis on any specific address you're considering.

Are you familiar with The Ridges HOAs and gated communities?+

Yes. Stephen has closed transactions across the major guard-gated and HOA communities in the The Ridges area and reads CC&Rs, transfer fees, and resale package timelines on every gated transaction so there are no surprises at closing.
