History of Las Vegas

Las Vegas was settled in 1905 and officially became incorporated in 1911. At the close of the 20th century, it

was the most populated American city founded within that century (a similar distinction earned by Chicago in the

1800’s). Population growth has accelerated since the 1960’s. and between 1990 and 2000 the population nearly dou-

bled, and increasing 85.2%. Rapid growth has continued into the 21st century, and according to a 2013 estimate, the

population is 603,488 with a regional population of 2,027,828.

Las Vegas (Spanish for “The Meadows”) often known simply as “Vegas”, is the 28th most populated city in the

United States, the most populated city in the state of Nevada, and the county seat of Clark County. The city anchors the

Las Vegas Valley metropolitan area and is the largest city within the greater Mojave Desert. Las Vegas is an internation-

ally renowned major resort city, known primarily for its gambling, shopping, fine dining, entertainment, and nightlife. The

las Vegas Valley as a whole serves as the leading financial, commercial, and cultural center for Nevada.

The city bills itself as “The Entertainment Capital of the World” and is famous for its mega casino-hotels and as-

sociated activities. It is a top three destination in the United States for business conventions and a global leader in the

hospitality industry, claiming more AAA Five Diamond hotels than any other city in the world. Today, Las Vegas annually

ranks as one of the world’s most visited tourist destinations. The city’s tolerance for numerous forms of adult entertain-

ment earned it the title of “Sin City”, and has made Las Vegas a popular setting for literature films, television programs,

and music videos.

SOUTHERN NEVADA COMMUNITIES

Southern Nevada’s three largest cities; Las Vegas, Henderson, and North Las Vegas are located in Clark Coun-

ty. While within proximity to one another, each city is fully independent. The most recent U.S. census figures put Clark

County population at more than 2 million residents.

Las Vegas: While Las Vegas has always been revered for its exciting nightlife, upscale dining, retail, and en-

tertainment offerings have taken the city to a new level. Las Vegas is also coming into its own with the expansion of non-

gaming industries, bringing high-tech companies, notable educational, medical research facilities, and cultural arts offer-

ings to the table.

North Las Vegas: While some confuse North Las Vegas with the “northern part” of Las Vegas, this flourish-

ing area is an independent city unto itself. With a population of more than 200,000, several successful master-planned

communities have fueled economic development in North Las Vegas by attracting new business and retail amenities to

the area. A proactive city government has led the way in creating a technology hub in the area. The city is home to the

bulk of Southern Nevada’s manufacturing, technology, distribution, and industrial facilities.

Henderson: With a population estimated at more than 252,000, Henderson has evolved from a small suburb

of Las Vegas into a flourishing community. Created for Basic Magnesium Inc.’s defense plants during World War ll, Hen-

derson is now home to award winning master-planned communities, a revitalized downtown business hub and an array

of parks, recreational facilities, dining, and retail options.

South/Southeast Valley: This sprawling are of the valley is home to both established neighborhoods and

some of the area’s most popular master-planned and retirement communities. It also features popular entertainment op-

tions including the District at Green Valley Ranch, the Henderson Parks & Recreation Department’s Multigenerational

Center, and Outdoor Amphitheater.

Southeast Las Vegas is home to several new elementary, middle, and high schools. It has easy access to other

areas of the valley through convenient access to interstate 215 and U.S. Highway 95. The area is within close proximity

to the Lake Mead National Recreation Area, Boulder City, and Hoover Dam. Some of the valley’s southeast communities

include Anthem, Green Valley Ranch, Lake Las Vegas, and Seven Hills.

North/Northwest Valley: Most locals refer to the entire northwestern portion of Las Vegas as "Summerlin",

the award-winning Howard Hughes master-planned community that established this region of the valley. However, this

area has grown to include an abundance of residential amenities, including upscale dining, shopping, and recreational

opportunities. Summerlin is still a mainstay of the region, but housing options now range from condominiums and age-

restricted communities to elite guard-gated custom homes.

The valley's largest assemblage of golf courses can be found in the northwest. Courses include the Badlands,

Painted Desert, Los Prados, and Angel Park. Shopping options include the Meadows Mall, Boca Park and Tivoli Village,

as well as a number of trendy strip centers. Several neighborhood casinos, such as Santa Fe Station, Suncoast, and

Red Rock Resort offer fine dining and gaming. Select neighborhoods in the northwest valley include Centennial Village,

Desert Shores, and Queensridge.

SENIOR ASSISTED LIVING

Southern Nevada is becoming an increasingly popular retirement destination with its warm, sunny climate, a vast

array of recreational opportunities, and numerous housing options. More than 22 percent of Las Vegas’ population is

made up of individuals aged 55 and older. Studies Show that today’s retirees are healthy, active individuals who are

looking for exciting, fun-filled, golden years. What a better place to make that happen than right here in Las Vegas?

Independent Living: Among the many senior housing options available, independent living provides the

greatest versatility and freedom. Independent living for seniors refers to residence in a compact, easy-to-maintain, pri-

vate apartment or house within a community of seniors. Any housing arrangement designed exclusively for seniors may

be classified as an independent living community. Independent living is for people who want to live on their own, but who

do not wish to maintain a home. These facilities provide a great amount of social interaction and offer residents a com-

munity that is both safe and flexible. Amenities may differ from community to community, but planned activities, commu-

nity services and dining options are standard in most independent living facilities. Independent living facilities differ from

other types of communities in that residents must be able to perform all daily aspects of living without assistance or mon-

itoring. Ideal candidates for this type of facility should be healthy, able to communicate with independent health care pro-

fessionals without the help of on-site staff, and must desire an active community environment.

Assisted Living: Assisted living communities are for people who need assistance with daily living activities.

These activities may range from transportation, daily meals, physician visits, and recreational activities to laundry ser-

vices, dressing and bathing assistance, housekeeping and medication assistance. While residents in assisted living cen-

ters are not able to live entirely by themselves, the centers allow them to live as independently as possible for as long as

possible. While assisted living is not an alternative to a nursing home, it is an intermediate level of long-term care appro-

priate for many seniors. Many assisted living facilities also have centers for medical care; however, these centers may

not be as intensive as the care available in nursing homes. Services for the early stages of Alzheimer's are also availa-

ble at many assisted living communities. Most assisted living facilities provide services and personal care in a group en-

vironment and promote active and healthy lifestyles for residents. Ideal candidates for this type of community are not

able to live independently, but do not require medical care. Typically, assisted living facilities are the first step when eve-

ryday care is needed. It is crucial to note that assisted living residents can be young or old, affluent or low income, frail or

disabled. Often this type of facility is home to patients requiring assistance after a traumatic event or period of hospital

rehabilitation.

Skilled Nursing Facilities: A skilled nursing facility, also known as a nursing home, employs registered

nurses who help provide 24-hour care to people who can no longer care for themselves due to physical, emotional or

mental conditions. A licensed physician supervises each patient's care and a nurse or other medical professional is al-

most always on the premises. Most nursing homes have two basic types of services: skilled medical care and custodial

care. Skilled medical care includes such activities as a speech therapist helping a patient learn to speak after a stroke, a

physical therapist helping to correct strength problems or a registered nurse changing a dressing after a major surgery.

Skilled medical care includes services of trained professionals that are needed for a limited period of time following an

injury or illness. Custodial care refers to care provided on a daily basis with what are considered the "activities of living."

Activities in custodial care include bathing, eating, grooming and dressing. People who are able to recover from a disa-

bling injury or illness may temporarily need custodial care as they are getting back the strength and balance necessary

to be independent again. However, custodial care can be a long-term need for those who are losing the ability to function

and require help to live life.

COUNTDOWN TO MOVING DAY

8 Weeks Before Your Move

Inventory Sheets: Create an inventory sheet of all items to be moved.

Research Moving Options: You’ll need to decide if yours is a do-it-yourself move, or if you’ll be using a moving company.

Request Moving Quote: Solicit moving quotes from as many moving companies and movers as possible. There can be a large difference between rates and services within moving companies.

Discard Unnecessary Items: Moving is a great time for ridding yourself of unnecessary items. Have a yard sale, or donate unnecessary items to charity.

Packing Material: Gather moving boxes and packing material for your move.

Contact Insurance Companies: You’ll need to contact your insurance agent to cancel/transfer your insurance poli-cy.

4 Weeks Before Your Move

Start Packing: Begin packing all things destined for your new location.

Obtain Your Medical Record: Contact your doctor, physician, dentist and other medical specialists who may cur-rently be retaining any of your family’s medical records. Obtain these records or make plans for them to be delivered to your new medical facilities if changing.

Note Food Inventory Levels: Check your cupboards, refrigerator and freezer to use up as much of your perishable food as possible.

Small Engines: Service small engines for your move by extracting gas and oil from the machines. This will reduce that chance to catch fire during your move.

Protect Jewelry and Valuables: Transfer jewelry and valuables to a safety deposit box so they can not be lost or stolen during your move.

Borrowed and Rented Items: Return items which you may have borrowed or rented. Collect items lent to others.

1 Week Before Your Move

Service Automobiles: If automobiles are to be driven long distance, you’ll want to have them serviced so you have a trouble-free drive.

Cancel Services: Notify any remaining service providers (newspapers, lawn services, etc.) of your move.

Travel Items: Set aside all items you’ll need while traveling. Make sure these are not packed on the moving truck.

Moving Day

Plan Your Itinerary: Make plans to spend the entire day at the house or at least until the movers are on their way. Someone will need to be around to make decisions. Make plans for kids and pets to be at a sitters for the day.

Review the House: Once the house is empty, check the entire house (closets, attic, basement, etc.) to ensure no items are left or no home issues exist.

Double Check With Your Mover: Ensure the mover has the new property address and all of your most recent contact information should they have any questions during your move.

Vacate Your Home: Make sure utilities are off, doors and windows are locked and notify your real estate agent you’ve left the property.

7 MOVING TIPS

1. Use shredded paper to protect your belongings. This is a double tip. While packing you

will find documents and paperwork that you no longer need, but also should not be throw in to

the trash for security reasons. Shred your documents and then use them to cushion the fragile items that you want to

keep in one piece!

2. Just like Goldilocks, you want to find the box that is just right! Use uniform sized boxes, not too big and not too

small, so you will be able to stack them easier and it makes loading and

unloading go quicker. Large boxes are tempting to pack to the brim, but may be impossible to

pick up once you have them loaded down.

3. Clear...for soft items, such as clothes and linens, use clear trash bags. You will be able

to see what is inside and unpacking will be a breeze. For smaller items use quart and gallon zip lock bags. Throw those

in the top of the box for the room that they will be unpacked.

4. Electronics…oh what a tangled web we weave! How am I going to remember what gets plugged in to what when I

get where I’m going? Take a photo of each electronic device’s “map of wires”. You may even want to label them with

colored masking tape and write what goes to what. When you arrive at your destination, you now have a photo log of

how to get your electronics plugged back in and online in no time.

5. Labels are the way to know. It takes just a few extra moments to catalog what is in the box, but it will save you

hours when you are unpacking. Write down the name of the room you want this box to be unloaded, and then a brief

description of what is in the box, i.e. pots, pans, and

pancake flipper.

6. Pack an OPEN FIRST box for immediate use when you get to your next home. Include a hand towel, hand soap,

Kleenex, toilet paper, tooth brushes, tooth paste, paper towels, scissors, knife, bottle opener, paper plates and cups,

and a small first aid kit. To make sure that box is one of the first to enter the home, pack it on the truck last.

7. Have the local pizza delivery service on speed dial. You will be hungry and so will your

generous friends who helped you make the move a success. Cheers!

TIPS FOR MOVING WITH CHILDREN

Moving is a good reason to get rid of things you don't want anymore, which will also make room for new things you might get in the future! Go through your all toys and games and group them into three piles: First Pile: Things you want to take with you to the new home. Second Pile: Things to toss out (broken toys and games with missing pieces). Third Pile: Things you don't want but could be given away to other kids.

Ask: "What Else"! Ask your parents what else can you do to help with all the sorting and packing that needs to be done. They will appreciate your help!

Mark Your Stuff as "Yours"! Design your own personal "seal" for marking your boxes as YOUR property! As your belongings are packed, draw your "seal" on the outside of each box. Be creative! You can create your own work of art to mark your belongings. Get Ready for Your First Night! Your first night in your new home is very special. Be sure to have your favorite pajamas, your trust blanket or stuffed toy, or your favorite book packed away in your suitcase or backpack. This will be your very own piece that you'll personally be in charge of to take with you to your new place to get ready for your first night in your new home! Don't Forget to Bring Some Entertainment! Don't forget to take some things for you to do on the airplane or in the car on the way to the new home, such as books, video games, action figures, or crayons and paper.

6 ESCROW TIPS FOR A SMOOTH CLOSING

1. Return your Information packet to Escrow as soon as possible. If an ID Affidavit is

included, fill it out as well. You will receive this to clear your title of liens and judgments

that might not necessarily belong to you, but someone with a similar name.

2. On the day of signing be prepared to have 1 hour to review and sign your document.

Bring a current ID for all parties involved and consider getting child care if possible.

3. Funds to close have to be in the form of a Cashier's Check or Wired to the escrow

company.

4. Signing and Closing occur on different days. You can ask your Escrow Officer when your

Lender will fund your transaction to get an idea of when you should expect to close and

have the title of the property in your name.

5. We are here to facilitate a smooth transition. Please let us know if you have any special

requests.

6. Trust the experts you have chosen to work with. They have your best interests in mind

and so do we!
