Understanding 55+ Age Requirements
Federal HOPA Guidelines: At least 80% of occupied units must have one resident 55 or older. The remaining 20% can include younger residents, though individual communities may be more restrictive.
Spouse/Partner Rules: Most communities allow a spouse or partner under 55 to reside with a qualifying resident. Minimum ages for non-qualifying residents vary (often 40-45 minimum).
Each community has specific rules. Dr. Jan Duffy provides detailed guidance on requirements for any community you're considering.

55+ Community Buying FAQs
What are the age requirements for 55+ communities in Las Vegas?
Per the Housing for Older Persons Act (HOPA), at least 80% of occupied units must have one resident 55 or older. The remaining 20% can be younger, but some communities require all residents to be 55+. Spouses can be younger in most communities.
Can I buy in a 55+ community if I'm under 55?
Generally no, but there are exceptions. You may purchase if you'll be 55 by close of escrow, or as an investor who will rent to 55+ tenants. Some communities allow residents 45-54 in limited circumstances. Dr. Jan can explain each community's specific rules.
What do HOA fees cover in 55+ communities?
HOA fees typically cover access to clubhouses, pools, fitness centers, golf courses, organized activities, landscaping, and exterior maintenance. Fees range from $140-$350/month depending on amenities. Some communities have separate golf memberships.
Why do California residents choose Las Vegas 55+ communities?
California retirees love Las Vegas for no state income tax, lower property prices (50-60% less), lower cost of living, warm weather, world-class healthcare, and the ability to get more home and amenities for their money. Many sell their California home and buy in Las Vegas with cash to spare.
Can grandchildren visit or stay in 55+ communities?
Yes, most communities allow guests of any age to visit and stay temporarily (typically 30-90 days per year). However, children cannot be permanent residents. Each community has specific guest policies that Dr. Jan Duffy can explain.
