What is the difference between Contingent and Pending?
When a property is put in Contingent status it means there is an offer on the property that has been accepted by both parties, but there are things that need to be cleared up before it can go into Pending status. The things usually involve inspections or loan concerns and sometimes these do not go through. There is a time limit for the contingencies to be removed. The listing agent may take back up offers for the seller in case it does fall apart.
When a property is put into Pending status the Contingency has been removed and most of the time everything runs smoothly and the property closes on time. Sometimes things have been known to go wrong but once at this status it only happens occasionally.

Gun owners will be able to continue shooting at the Desert Sportsman’s Rifle & Pistol Club after the west valley firing range received a permit to operate for another five years.
Clark County Commissioners on Wednesday renewed the club’s use permit through 2014, although the club had sought a 10-year extension.
Concerns over the new village Summerlin will build just to the north and the Tech School being built just to the east prompted the dispute over the club having its licence renewed for 10 years. For more information and to read the whole article read Desert Sportsman and Pistol Club

Sun City Summerlin
This 2,400 acre community was completed by Del Webb in 1998. There were 7,779 homes constructed. Over 14,000 residents call Sun City Summerlin home. It is located in the northwest which is an approximate 20 to 25 min. commute to the strip and airport. The community took approximately 10 years to complete. Sizes of homes range from 2 bedroom, 2 bath under 1100 sq. ft. to 3 bedrooms at over 3,000 sq. ft. There are normally between 80 and 100 resale homes available. This is a very small number considering the total number of homes and reflects a high demand for this wonderful community. The amenities include a total of 5 pools, 2 of which are indoor, 3 out, 3 golf courses, hobby rooms, tennis courts, a racquetball court, 3 restaurants, 4 community centers, miniature golf and really, the list goes on and on. The golf courses are homeowner owned as opposed to Siena and Sun City Anthem where this is not the case. In terms of amenities, I would rate this community number one with more of just about everything. More tennis courts, hobby rooms, pools, and community centers. The local infrastructure is in place, with lots of convenient shopping and services.
In the next posts, I will show you some of the most popular models within Sun City Summerlin. Starting with the attached and continuing until I show you all of the models you have to chose from in this super Active Adult community. Keep in mind no home is the same. I am only showing one home, of each model. Everyone has different tastes and decorating style. Please email me with any questions about the homes in this beautiful community. Chris@ChrisShouse.com
Note: With the downsizing of Sun City Anthem, Sun City Summerlin will be far and away the largest of the local age restricted communities. It does, in my opinion, offer much more in the way of common area amenities. It does not seem likely that there will ever be a local age restricted community that will offer the combination of services and amenities that are found here.

The Desert Sportsman’s Rifle & Pistol Club located on Charleston just on your way towards the visitor center at Red Rock Canyon has a license that comes up for renewal every ten years. ( CLUB WEBSITE ) It has always been a good place to go shooting and almost anything goes, machine guns, automatic weapons and your regular guns and rifles. They have gun safety courses and are members of the NRA.
However as Summerlin grows should this range really be located where it is? The villages that are most affected are The Paseos, The Ridges, Red Rock Country Club, and the new village which will be built west of The Paseos.
I had the honor today to attend The First Summerlin Blogger’s Breakfast. Tom Warden, (Senior Vice President of Community and Government Relations of the Howard Hughes Corporation ) came to speak to us about the latest going on in Summerlin. He just found out today about the hearing this evening on the renewal for the club and he will be there to oppose the license being renewed.
This first meeting is just the committee and will most likely go to the full commission in about a month. There is NO Notification to neighborhoods around the shooting range so it will be up to the blogger’s and Home News to advise people of this.
This blog will have an update with the date and time we will be able as Summerlin Residents go down and give our opinion on the renewal of this license. I have always believed in the right to bare arms but is this Rifle and Pistol Club now too close to where our families live? I would like some comments on this.
After the meeting I drove up and snapped a couple of pictures.
