Land arrangement
Confirm whether the sale includes the lot or a separate ground lease applies. Do not rely on the listing headline alone.
Desert Greens buyer guide · Before an offer
Verify the details for the exact address.
Two Desert Greens homes can look similar while having very different land arrangements, documents, monthly costs, financing options, and risks. Investigate the exact property—not just the listing.
Legal and resource links last reviewed August 23, 2026.
Check property-specific details before relying on a listing.
Monthly obligations
Separate the HOA dues from lot rent, when applicable, and verify what water, sewer, trash, and recreation services the HOA currently includes.
Association & lease documents
Review current governing documents, assessments, fees, rules, resale disclosures, and every ground-lease term before purchasing.
Home & title condition
Use qualified inspectors and title professionals to evaluate the manufactured home, systems, permits, additions, title status, and site improvements.
Insurance
Ask current providers about availability, coverage, and cost for the specific property before purchasing.
Community life & events
Ask how resident socials, clubs, activity calendars, outside-vendor craft fairs, and other special events are announced and scheduled.
Print the worksheet that matches where you are in the buying process.

When the documents arrive
Read past the cover page.
The seller disclosure addresses known property conditions. The resale package explains the association, finances, and community rules. A ground lease, when present, controls a separate land obligation. None replaces inspections, title review, or other buyer due diligence.
Costs & assessments
Confirm current HOA dues, lot rent when applicable, increases, special assessments, transfer fees, account-opening charges, and other expected costs.
Financial health
Review the association budget, year-to-date financial statement, reserve summary, and plans for major shared expenses.
Rules & property use
Read the 55-or-older occupancy rules and the requirements for parking, rentals, pets, exterior changes, landscaping, and future improvements.
Claims & obligations
Look for pending litigation, unsatisfied judgments, owner balances, violations, and obligations that could affect the property.
Association-document and contract review periods can be time-sensitive. Confirm the applicable receipt date, cancellation rights, notice method, and exact deadlines for the transaction with your agent or Nevada attorney.
