House Hunters: Southern Highlands

If you've ever wondered what $600,000 can get you in Southern Highlands, Las Vegas. I recently toured three homes currently on the market, each a little different: a guard-gated home, a fully renovated home, and a single-story. This post (and my latest video) gives you an inside look.

Southern Highlands: A Popular Neighborhood

Southern Highlands is one of the top residential areas in Las Vegas, known for its beautiful homes, master-planned community, parks, and convenient location just minutes from the Strip and Harry Reid International Airport. With a diverse real estate market, homes range from the mid-$500Ks to multi-million-dollar luxury estates in the prestigious Southern Highlands Golf Club.

Right now, there are 33 homes for sale under $600K in Southern Highlands, making this price range competitive. The median sales price in the area is just over $600K, so today's featured properties fall right in that range.
