PulteGroup, the parent company of both Pulte Homes and Del Webb, is one of the largest home builders in the United States. In Las Vegas, these two brands have shaped the valley's residential landscape for decades. Del Webb is synonymous with 55+ active adult living, having developed Sun City Summerlin (7,700+ homes, three golf courses) and Sun City Anthem (7,200+ homes, two golf courses) — two of the most successful age-restricted communities in the nation. Pulte Homes serves the broader family and move-up buyer market with contemporary floor plans and Life Tested designs.
Pulte Homes' Life Tested design philosophy involves studying how families actually live and incorporating findings into their floor plans. This includes features like centralized laundry rooms, strategically placed outlets, planning centers within kitchens, and flexible room configurations that can serve as home offices, classrooms, or guest suites. Their Las Vegas communities span Summerlin, Henderson, Centennial Hills, and the southwest valley, with homes typically ranging from the mid-$400,000s to $900,000+.
Del Webb's 55+ communities in Las Vegas are destination developments that attract retirees from across the country. Beyond the iconic Sun City communities, Del Webb continues to develop new 55+ neighborhoods within master plans like Inspirada and Cadence. These communities include resort-style amenities: golf courses, pools, fitness centers, social halls, and organized activities. Nevada's zero state income tax is a major draw for retirees considering Del Webb's Las Vegas communities. Nevada Real Estate Group agents specializing in active adult communities help buyers compare Del Webb options and navigate the age-restriction requirements.

Pulte Homes and Del Webb are both owned by PulteGroup but serve different markets. Pulte Homes builds for families, first-time buyers, and move-up buyers of all ages. Del Webb builds 55+ active adult communities with age restrictions (at least one resident must be 55+) and resort-style amenities. Both brands are known for design innovation and construction quality.
Del Webb's Las Vegas portfolio includes Sun City Summerlin (7,700+ homes, three golf courses), Sun City Anthem (7,200+ homes, two golf courses), and newer 55+ neighborhoods within master plans like Inspirada and Cadence. Sun City Summerlin and Sun City Anthem are among the largest and most amenity-rich 55+ communities in the country.
Pulte Homes in Las Vegas typically range from $450,000 to $900,000+ depending on community and floor plan. Del Webb 55+ homes range from $300,000 to $700,000 in Sun City Summerlin and Sun City Anthem. Newer Del Webb communities may have different pricing based on location and amenities.
Del Webb 55+ communities require at least one resident in each household to be 55 years or older. Other residents must typically be at least 40 or 45 years old, though specific rules vary by community CC&Rs. No permanent residents under 19 are generally permitted. Short-term visits by younger family members are allowed.
Sun City Summerlin has three golf courses (Highland Falls, Palm Valley, Eagle Crest) and Sun City Anthem has two golf courses (Sun City Anthem Golf Club and Revere Golf Club nearby). Not all Del Webb communities include golf, but the Sun City brand is closely associated with golf-centered active adult living.
PulteGroup offers a limited warranty that typically includes 1 year on workmanship and materials, 2 years on delivery systems (HVAC, plumbing, electrical), and 10 years on structural components. They also offer a customer care program for post-move-in support. Specific terms may vary by community.
