Ascaya is typically considered to be a lifestyle purchase first and an investment second. While that description is partially accurate, it overlooks an essential element of the Ascaya community: Ascaya is a design-driven scarcity market; and, as such, it operates under different rules than do volume-driven luxury neighborhoods.
The Broker of Simply Vegas Real Estate, and an owner in Roma Hills while advising clients on high-end purchases at Ascaya, I view the community from both a lifestyle perspective and an investment perspective. Clients who have knowledge of the factors creating and protecting value in Ascaya, generally provide the most confidence for their long-term decisions.
This article provides insight into determining whether Ascaya is a good real estate investment, and what buyers may reasonably anticipate when purchasing in this community.
Ascaya is a Scarcity-Based Market - Limited Supply Drives Value
Ascaya has a fixed number of homes and lots. Because of this finite nature of Ascaya's supply, there is no possibility of over-building, and therefore, no possible way to rapidly increase inventory levels when demand increases.
Scarcity creates value in several ways:
It limits growth in supply.
It protects architectural quality (timeless design) and reduces competitive pressures.
It attracts long-term owners instead of short-term speculators.
One of Ascaya's greatest investment fundamental strengths lies in its structural limitations.
Buyer Demand for Ascaya Homes is Highly Qualified - Fewer Buyers with Greater Confidence
Ascaya does not attract casual buyers; the buyer pool for Ascaya is smaller, however, significantly more intentional.
Typically, Ascaya buyers are:
High Net Worth Individuals
Individuals who are architecture-driven decision makers
Individuals who plan to own their home for a long time
Less responsive to fluctuations in interest rates
More concerned about the quality of the home they purchase than the price of that home
This highly qualified and intentional buyer pool produces a demand for Ascaya properties which is much less susceptible to volatility than the demand for luxury properties in general.
Architecture Protects Value Over Time - Design Quality Ages Better than Trends
Ascaya has implemented strict architectural standards that focus on creating homes with timeless designs and avoid trendy architectural elements. This is a major factor in long-term value creation.
Homes built using well-designed architecture tend to:
Endure through time with elegance
Continue to be relevant and desirable
Avoid rapid depreciation and obsolescence
Create appeal for future homeowners
Communities that lack architectural controls, ultimately suffer a loss of value as architectural trends change over time. Ascaya actively prevents this from occurring.
There is Less Volatility in Ascaya, However, Liquidity May be Slower - Understanding This Trade-Off
Ascaya is not a fast-paced marketplace. Generally, it takes longer to sell homes in Ascaya compared to other luxury neighborhoods.
This slower pace of sales is due to:
A high degree of selectivity among buyers
Limited inventory
Narrowly defined pricing parameters
Deliberate and thoughtful decision-making processes
Slower liquidity in Ascaya does not equate to lower values. Rather, it indicates that Ascaya rewards patient and thoughtful buyers over those seeking to act quickly.
The Entry Point Matters - Long-Term Returns Vary Depending on Lot and Execution
While Ascaya is a great place to invest in a home, not every investment will produce identical returns. In fact, the outcomes of an investment in Ascaya depend heavily upon:
Lot quality
Protection of views
Privacy
Quality of architectural design and build-out
Quality of construction
Those who focus on acquiring high-quality lots, and execute their projects with attention to detail and adherence to the highest standards of quality, tend to experience greater long-term success.
Ascaya Is Not a Market for Flipping Homes - Align Your Expectations Correctly
If you are looking for a quick profit or a short-term sale, then Ascaya is likely not the correct choice for you. Ascaya is best suited for:
Owning a property for a long time
Using a property for personal purposes and preserving the value of the property
Combining a desire for a lifestyle with the need to preserve the value of a property
When treated properly, Ascaya offers both experiential and financial return to its owners.
Marketwide downturns affect Ascaya in a different manner - Resilience comes from the characteristics of the buyer
During market downturns, Ascaya experiences:
Lessened transactions
Stabilized pricing for high-quality properties
Sellers choosing to delay selling until prices stabilize
Selectively active buyers
These behaviors help create stable value over the long-term.
Why Do Investors and Owners Trust My Opinion?

I am able to relate to the challenges associated with long-term luxury ownership personally.
I have evaluated Ascaya throughout multiple market cycles
I remain focused on the long-term and filter out the short-term noise.
