RELOCATION TIMELINE

How to Relocate to Sundance at Skye Canyon in 8 Steps

From first research to keys-in-hand, here's the 8–14 week timeline most Sundance buyers follow — new construction adds the builder's build cycle to the standard escrow. Two deadlines are statutory: Nevada requires a driver's license within 30 days of residency and vehicle registration within 60, per the Nevada DMV — miss them and registration penalties stack.

1. 01

   Research the Skye Canyon village lineup

   Compare Sundance (Century Communities, $450K–$700K) against Stonehaven (Toll Brothers, $500K–$800K) and Ridgeline village before picking a builder. Floor plan priorities, price point, and view preferences drive the choice.

2. 02

   Get pre-approved before visiting models

   Century Communities's sales agents ask for pre-approval or proof of funds at first contact. Conventional and FHA loans both work well in this price band; VA eligible? Bring your Certificate of Eligibility — $0 down applies.

3. 03

   Hire a buyer's agent before the model visit

   Builders register agents at the first visit — representation established after that contact may not count. Call (702) 637-1759 before your first appointment; our team coordinates builder access and tracks active incentives.

4. 04

   Tour models and select your lot

   Century Communities typically has 3–5 floor plans open for touring. Walk the actual lot you're considering; an elevated lot can command a $15K–$40K premium for mountain views. Virtual tours available for out-of-state buyers.

5. 05

   Review and sign the purchase agreement

   Century Communities uses a proprietary contract — not the Nevada standard residential agreement. Our agents review it for contingencies, deposit structure, close-of-escrow deadlines, and any builder-required arbitration clauses before you sign.

6. 06

   Design center selections and inspections

   You'll visit the design center for flooring, cabinetry, and fixture selections; budget $15K–$50K for meaningful upgrades. Order an independent pre-drywall inspection and final walk-through inspection even on new construction.

7. 07

   Clear conditions and fund

   New-construction closings run 30–45 days for quick-move inventory; to-be-built takes 4–8 months from signing. Nevada escrow companies handle closing; budget for HOA setup fees, builder-required title insurance, and the association resale-document period.

8. 08

   Close, move, and register

   Transfer utilities (NV Energy, Southwest Gas, Las Vegas Valley Water District), register with the Skye Canyon HOA for Skye Center access, then handle the DMV — license within 30 days, registration within 60.
