Let’s be honest: 2025 did not go the way the builders planned.
They came into this year wearing rose-colored glasses, riding the high of 2024’s momentum, and fully expecting another sprint into record demand. Instead? We’ve watched the market take a breath — a long, slow, slightly dramatic Vegas-style inhale — and the builders have been adjusting in real time.
Here’s the truth no one’s sugarcoating anymore:
Upward pressure on pricing has eased. Inventory is sitting longer. Buyers now have leverage.
And the builders? They’re quietly pivoting… because they have to.
Why This Matters — Especially Right Now
We’re stepping into the annual “end-is-near” season — when every builder in Summerlin, Henderson, and the Northwest starts looking at their books and realizing they’d really like to close out the year strong.
Translation:
Q4 = deals. Incentives. Rate buy-downs. Lot premiums adjusted. Upgrades thrown in. Quick move-ins discounted.
And here’s the kicker:
2026 is shaping up to be more of the same, but this time builders are prepared.
They’re already adjusting product lines, pacing releases, and tightening pricing around what’s becoming the new normal. So while opportunity will still be there next year, right now is the sweet spot — when builders are motivated and still holding more inventory than they’d like heading into the holidays.
A Candle, a Reality Check, and the Holiday Creep
Yesterday, I wandered into Bath & Body Works to grab that 2-for-1 candle deal (because… who can resist?), and immediately got blasted in the face by Christmas.
A full two weeks before the “official” holiday season even begins.
So yes — the holidays are creeping in fast.
But don’t get caught under the mistletoe just yet.
Because while you’re debating whether to buy the “Frosted Sugar Cookie” candle, someone else is writing an offer on a discounted quick move-in in Summerlin West.
If You Want a Real Deal, You Have to Move Before the Holidays
This is the moment.
The builders are motivated.
Inventory is sitting.
And the best opportunities always go to the buyers who move before Thanksgiving hits and the rest of the world mentally checks out until January.
