Why Buy a New Construction Home in Reno?
Fresh builds here meet Nevada’s 2024 energy code, which means tight envelopes, spray-foam attics, and electric bills that won’t spike when the high desert swings from 25° to 95°. Most subdivisions roll the first-year workmanship, two-year systems, and ten-year structural warranties into the price—handy when lumber still smells new. South Reno communities plumb fiber internet by default, so the home office keeps up with Bay-Area upload speeds. Many HOAs front the landscape water bill (xeriscape isn’t cheap to start, but it is cheap to maintain). And if you travel, a Ring package plus quick-set deadbolt is standard spec—lock-and-leave comes built in.

Spec homes in 89521 (Double Diamond & Damonte Ranch) rarely last a month—commuters like the US-395 on-ramp and younger schools. Up in 89506, larger lots slow things down; buyers take an extra week to measure where the RV pad will sit.
Where the Dirt Is Turning in Reno
South Reno – 89521 & 89511
Crews pour a slab almost daily. Prices start in the mid $500s for 1,800 sq ft and push past $900K for single-story semi-customs with a third-car garage. Trails lace the edges, and elementary campuses sit inside the master plans—morning traffic is bikes, not buses.

North Valleys – 89506
Bigger acreage, fewer HOA rules. Builders here lean farmhouse or modern-ranch elevations; plenty of room to park toys, but you’ll drive twenty minutes for a latte.
Northwest – 89523 (Somersett & Verdi)
Golf-course views, some gated streets, and design review boards that keep stucco color palettes tight. Expect the HOA to eye your patio cover drawings before you pour footings.

Hidden Infill Lots Downtown
Small local outfits tear down 1950s cottages and slide in skinny three-story moderns—walk to the river, but plan on vertical living and alley parking.
Buyer FAQs – Condos in Reno
What do monthly condo dues usually cover?
Most cover exterior insurance, common-area maintenance, trash, and water. Newer downtown towers often toss in high-speed internet; older walk-ups rarely do.
Can I finance a condo with 3 % down?
Yes—if the building is on the FHA or Fannie Mae approved list. Downtown high-rises built before 2000 may not qualify, so double-check before the appraisal.
Are short-term rentals allowed?
Very few. The city limits STR permits downtown, and most HOAs cap stays at 30 days or longer. South Reno complexes enforce the rule with stiff fines.
How big is the parking headache?
Units downtown typically include one deeded space; a second spot can run $125–$200 a month in the garage next door. South-end and Caughlin Ranch builds give you a private garage or driveway.
Any special assessments on the horizon?
Two riverfront buildings are budgeting for elevator modernization—figure $6,000–$8,000 per unit spread over three years. Newer complexes are fully funded for reserves right now.
