New Housing in Santa Clarita

We currently have a number of new housing communities here in Santa Clarita. Some are complete and some are nearly ready for sales. Others are just getting started. Even if all the homes in a given community are sold out, if it’s a newer community, it’s included below.

New 20,000 Home Development in Valencia, CA: Located just west of Magic Mountain, this is a huge project with the first phase now in progress. You won’t find many traditional homes on large lots, but there are many subdivisions with a large variety of apartment sized flats, unique 2 and 3 story attached and detached condos, townhomes and single family homes. We must say, most lots are very small. This is fine for some, but not all. There are still plenty of traditional homes to be found in most of the other developments listed below.

Williams Ranch: 497 new homes in Castaic now being developed by Williams Homes and model homes are available to tour now! Of all the new developments listed this is the one we are most excited about! Why? Because the lots are large, there are many single story homes and lots of mountain views. The builder is just outstanding!

Skyline Ranch: A new development of lovely homes built by Pardee Homes and TriPoint. The community is located at the east edge of Plum Canyon. As of early 2023 there are 5 subdivisions already complete while the new Starling and Altis 55+ neighborhoods are in progress. There are still some future neighborhoods, a school and a park planned in the future. The main HOA recreation area is exceptional!

Tesoro Highlands: A new development now in progress in Tesoro. The first homes are now being built and the first models are now available to tour! The overall project includes approximately 820 homes and 13 neighborhoods, but two of those are planned for the 55+ crowd. Within the Highlands, the new Toscana Highlands 55 Plus neighborhood is now in progress and we’re happy to report, all will be single story homes! Models will open soon.

Trenton Heights: A new neighborhood of over 100, traditional two story homes on the corner of Sierra Highway and Dockweiler Drive. As of 2023, construction is in progress, but the models are complete and now open for tours. With all the excitement over the new development in Valencia, we almost missed this one. In fact, we just published our Trenton Heights report and video.

Vista Canyon: This is a unique community of convenience, with over 240 detached homes in Canyon Country completed in 2021.

West Creek: There were two developments completed around 2020. The most recent developments include the new condos in Paloma built by Tri Point Homes. The other is Avanti, consisting of detached homes built by Lennar. Both are well known builders and we all know West Creek is a terrific community. Overall, West Creek includes 11 neighborhoods built out from 2007 to 2020.

Toll Brothers at Plum Canyon: Includes 4 neighborhoods called Mirabelle, Avalon, Sierra and Victoria neighborhoods, all built by Toll Brothers and located in Plum Canyon of Santa Clarita.

Almost New
If you don’t mind buying a new home that is considered newer, but not really brand new, browse through our communities in Santa Clarita. There are a decent number local neighborhoods considered to be “newer” and worth a look. For instance, the Villa Metro community was built from around 2013 to 2017. Valencia West Creek is still very new! Check out River Village and some of the newer neighborhoods in Copper Hill North. Valle Di Oro is a lovely gated community built around 2013.

HOA’s and Mello Roos in New Developments

If you’re planning to buy a brand new home be sure to consider the additional costs for monthly HOA dues and Mello Roos Tax, if any.

HOA Facts
Did you know, some communities have an HOA but there are no usable amenities. Yep, you pay your monthly dues and it helps cover the cost common area maintenance only. Thankfully, most communities with HOA’s have recreational amenities such as pools, spas, tennis etc. Some HOA’s are quite expensive and others are very reasonable. The most inexpensive HOA’s are typically found in the original Valencia communities.

Mello Roos
Most, (not all) new housing developments in Santa Clarita come with a Mello Roos Tax and this must be considered into your home loan equation. The costs can be surprisingly high, so be prepared and be sure to verify BEFORE making an offer to buy. We have seen numerous deals fall through because the agent representing the buyer did not have the foresight to VERIFY prior to making an offer. Some agents from outside SCV do not take these costs seriously and occasionally the deal falls through.

BEWARE! Use Caution When Visiting New Developments

If you are interested in buying a home in Peak or any new development, it’s important to take us with you when visiting for the first time. Why? Because if you sign in at the sales office without us, we won’t be able to represent you with your purchase. We know all the right questions to ask to get the answers you need to make accurate and informed decisions.

Benefits of Working With Us When Buying a Home in a New Development
When you work with us you can rest easy knowing you have an added layer of protection. Remember, the developers representatives are sales people and it’s their job to sell.They are very good at it! Of course, they will talk up the positive and avoid the negative. Unless you know the right questions to ask, they may not will offer up all the information you need to make accurate and informed decisions.

If the developer is NOT offering us a reasonable commission, we can still help! Work with us to sell your current home and we’ll share questions to ask before buying.

Thankfully, we have a great deal of local knowledge and thoroughly investigate all new developments in our area. We provide our buyers with all the known positive AND negative aspects of each community, the neighborhoods, homes, amenities, local conveniences and more. We will be with you when you tour the community and meet with the sales agents.

Selling Your Current Home to Buy in New Development

CAUTION: Sometimes, in new developments the sales agents will NOT accept your offer to buy a brand new home if it is contingent upon the sale of your current home. Alternatively, they may offer to buy your home. As you probably know, they are not doing this out of kindness. If you agree, you will in fact take a hit on your sale!

Example: The fair market value of your home is $800,000. 20% of that is $160,000. Heck, even if it’s just $40K, do you really want to give up $40,000? This is your hard earned equity and you must protect it!

Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is! If you have a good lender/realtor team and do some proper planning, you can get your home sold fast and for the highest price. Then you’ll be in position to buy that brand new home, without taking a financial hit! We have options and solutions to help with this!
