What Summerlin does
Summerlin is a master planned community (MPC) located on the western edge of the Las Vegas Valley in Clark County, Nevada, adjacent to Red Rock National Conservation Area and minutes from the Las Vegas Strip. Developed and operated since 1990 by Howard Hughes Communities — the real estate platform of Howard Hughes Holdings Inc. (NYSE: HHH) — the community spans thousands of acres organized into villages (Grand Park, Kestrel, Kestrel Commons, La Madre Peaks, Redpoint Square, Summerlin Centre, The Peaks) with 132+ homes actively selling across approximately 30 neighborhoods. Its core infrastructure comprises 300+ parks, 200+ miles of award-winning trails (planned past 250 miles), 26 schools, 10 premier golf courses (including The Summit Club developed by Discovery Land Company), and the Downtown Summerlin mixed-use district, which anchors retail, dining, entertainment, professional sports venues (Las Vegas Ballpark, City National Arena), and Class A office space including the LEED Silver-certified 1700 Pavilion (266,000 SF).
Summerlin generates revenue through four primary streams: (1) residential land development and home sales distributed via nine national/regional homebuilder partners (KB Home, Lennar, Pulte Homes, Richmond American Homes, SHAWOOD, Taylor Morrison, Toll Brothers, Tri Pointe Homes, Woodside Homes) operating model home complexes across villages, with home prices ranging from ~$425,000 entry-level to $1.25M+ luxury, and custom homesites at Astra and The Summit Club priced on application; (2) recurring rental income from three luxury apartment residences (Constellation, Tanager, Tanager Echo) managed by Greystar; (3) recurring commercial office lease income from five Class A properties (1700 Pavilion, ONE Summerlin, TWO Summerlin, The Suites, Meridian) leased through Cushman & Wakefield; and (4) retail, dining, and entertainment rent from Downtown Summerlin tenants. The customer base spans first-time and move-up homebuyers, luxury/custom buyers, active adults (55+) via the new Esplanade at Red Rock by Taylor Morrison, luxury renters, and commercial office tenants.
The go-to-market is hybrid: direct-to-consumer via model home complexes and a year-round Downtown Summerlin events calendar (Fitness on the Lawn, Summerlin Sounds, Las Vegas Farmers Market) drives top-of-funnel awareness; a curated nine-builder channel partnership distributes home sales; and enterprise field sales through Greystar and Cushman & Wakefield handle rentals and office leases respectively. The Summerlin Agent Pass and Downtown Summerlin Experience Pass programs formalize real estate agent referrals and consumer loyalty. Customer segments include individuals, families, businesses, and tourists, all served within a single integrated live-work-play ecosystem that is positioned as the top-selling MPC in Clark County and one of the most successful nationally under the Howard Hughes Communities portfolio.

Revenue model
- Residential Home Sales: Summerlin generates revenue through land sales to homebuilder partners and potentially through development fees. Homebuilders (Tri Pointe Homes, KB Home, Taylor Morrison, Toll Brothers, etc.) sell homes ranging from $425,000 to over $1.25 million across 132+ actively selling homes across 7 villages and ~30 neighborhoods. Summerlin earns from the underlying land development and community master planning.
- Luxury Rental Residences: Downtown Summerlin features three luxury apartment communities (Constellation, Tanager, Tanager Echo) managed by Greystar. These generate rental income with units offering stainless steel appliances, granite/quartz countertops, resort-style pools, fitness centers, EV chargers, and sky lounges. Revenue is recurring on a monthly rental basis.
- Commercial Office Leasing: Class A office spaces at Downtown Summerlin (1700 Pavilion at 266,000 SF, ONE Summerlin, TWO Summerlin, The Suites, Meridian) are leased to businesses. Leasing is handled by Cushman & Wakefield. This provides recurring rental income from office tenants.
- Retail, Dining & Entertainment (Downtown Summerlin): Downtown Summerlin is a walkable retail, dining, entertainment, and sports destination anchored by Las Vegas Ballpark and City National Arena. It hosts a diverse tenant mix including fashion, boutiques, restaurants, health & wellness, home furnishings, services, and entertainment venues. Revenue is generated through tenant rents and potentially through event programming and sponsorship.

- Teravalis: Howard Hughes Communities' MPC in Phoenix, AZ. Sister project under same developer — useful comp for forward-curve demand and Sun Belt MPC economics.

Regional players
