From the first property to the last, Kirby was an exceptional agent — well grounded in work ethics and striving to consistently exceed expectations.
Inside this guard-gated community, a retirement move is rarely one clean decision. It starts with equity built over years that now funds the next chapter, set against a tiered HOA. Most retirees come to see that equity and timing, not the list price, are what need managing.
Why A Retirement Move Here Is Different
It comes down to order of operations, and the right answer shifts from one household to the next. Retirees in Southern Highlands tend to want a single-level floor plan, less upkeep, a lock-and-leave base, a move closer to family, or equity freed up.
| Retiree Goal | What We Read First | Scofield Group Move |
|---|---|---|
| Single-story living | HOA docs, floor plan supply | Match you with an agent who knows the resale pool |
| Trade square footage | Sale prices, upkeep costs | Price lower-upkeep homes against your sale |
| Lock-and-leave base | Guard-gate and golf club tiers | Target a low-HOA, turnkey property |
| Convert equity | Comparable sales, net at close | A Southern Highlands equity read |
We work from the net number rather than the list price. That is, a retirement is funded by what reaches your account after fees, HOA transfer and tax.
How Our Team Works The Two Sides
Reaching a reliable net number means working both halves at once, so we run your sale and purchase as one project. We pair you with a single realtor from a bench of more than 40 realtors, not whoever answered the phone. On the sell side we build a value read from comparable sales and how your floor plan ranks against current listings.
As a certified Zillow Showcase partner, we run your home as a marketed asset where most local buyers start looking. Our 40-plus agents often reach in-house buyers before it hits the portals.
The buy side runs on its own clock. We read the HOA and community documents wherever you are headed, then price single-story alternatives against the home you are leaving. Retirees who tour a new build alone sometimes lose builder representation at the sales table, which is why we register you before that first visit.
Comparing Southern Highlands To Other Valley Retirement Areas
Choosing where to land usually means weighing Southern Highlands against nearby retirement pockets. It holds up well on gating, golf and a central location, while asking you to accept higher HOA tiers.
| Area | Draw For Retirees | Consider |
|---|---|---|
| Southern Highlands | Guard-gated, golf, Strip views, central | Higher HOA tiers |
| Summerlin | Trails, parks, green space, luxury estates | Prices run high |
| North Las Vegas | Lower price per home, newer builds | Fewer gated golf neighborhoods |
| Boulder City | Quiet, lake and ranch living | Smaller resale market |
We match the area to how your day gets spent, from mornings at the golf club to a base you lock and leave.
A Record You Can Check From Outside
Our record is verified by outside parties, not self-reported. RealTrends named us a 2026 Top Team and placed us in The Thousand Top 10 for 2025, rankings built on audited sales production. Zillow certified us as a Showcase partner, and our profiles draw on verified client reviews written after closing.
Pros And Cons Of A Large-Team Brokerage For Retirees
That verified production is one reason a larger team helps a retiree. A large-team brokerage earns its keep when a move has two sides to coordinate.
Pros
- A 40+ advisor bench lets us match you to a realtor who fits a two-sided move
- An in-house buyer network reaches your home before the portals
- A broker-owner who can decide on contingencies in minutes
- Measured 2026 sales production standing behind your listing
Cons (and how we answer them)
- Worried about being handed off: the bench is what lets us match you well
- Worried the home will "sell itself": our deliberate presentation protects your equity
If you interview realtors, a useful question is who negotiates your contingency. With us that reaches a broker in this office, not a regional desk.

Common Questions From Retirees
These interviews surface the same questions.
Do I really have to sell before I buy?
Not always. We map the order with you, including what lists first and where any gap gets bridged, so you avoid two payments at once.
What does a Southern Highlands home cost right now?
Prices swing widely by neighborhood and golf frontage, with many homes well above $500,000 and estates far higher. We would rather give a current read than a guess.
Should I start with a listing appointment?
Not yet. We begin with a value and equity read, because the math is worth seeing first.
Start With A Value And Equity Read
Your next step is a Southern Highlands home value and equity assessment. We pull comparable sales and recommend a selling-and-buying sequence. Call a licensed realtor at (702) 766-3795, or reach our office at 8704 Spanish Ridge Ave, Ste 300, Las Vegas, NV. No obligation.
