Golf Community Homes for Sale in Sun City West, Arizona

Buying a golf course home in Sun City West

Sun City West golf course homes back up to one of seven courses run by the Recreation Centers of Sun City West (RCSCW): four regulation layouts and three executive layouts. The best lot depends on the course, the hole, the view angle and how much play you want outside the patio.

I am Terry Day, REALTOR® with DeLex Realty, and I treat a golf lot here as a map question first and a price question second. For the wider picture of the community, see the Moving to Sun City West guide.

The seven RCSCW golf courses

The Recreation Centers of Sun City West list seven courses. Knowing which one borders a listing tells you a lot about the play you will see from the back yard.

Regulation courses

• Deer Valley: par 72; RCSCW describes it as the newest and most player-friendly regulation course, with wide fairways, large greens and water in play.
• Grandview
• Pebblebrook: also home to the Golf Operations office.
• Trail Ridge

Executive courses

• Stardust: par 60; billed as the original executive course, with tree-lined fairways and water on four holes of the back nine.
• Echo Mesa: par 60; an executive layout with lakes and both sand and grass bunkers, often called one of the tougher courses in the community.
• Desert Trails: par 61; a Billy Casper design with seven par 4s.

Regulation and executive courses feel different from a patio. A regulation hole usually means longer shots and more variety in where balls land; an executive hole is shorter, often with more frequent groups. Neither is better: it comes down to what you want to look at every morning.

What changes value on a golf lot

In general terms, buyers and appraisers weigh:

• A direct fairway, green or lake view versus a partial glimpse between houses
• Whether the patio faces play or the lot sits across a street from the course
• Which hole and which side of it (landing zones see more balls than tee boxes)
• Home condition, roof and HVAC age, and updates, next to the view itself
• How many similar course lots are on the market at the same time

I will not quote a premium percentage for a golf lot. I pull comparable sales for that course edge and that floor plan style, because the answer changes from hole to hole.

Views, golf balls and cart paths

A listing that says "golf course lot" should match the plat map and what you actually see from the patio. Before you write an offer, I suggest you:

• Tour during a busy morning tee time and watch a few groups play through
• Look at screens, windows, stucco and roof edges on the course side for ball marks
• Note how close the cart path runs and whether it is visible from main rooms
• Check whether trees or mounds block the view, and how seasonal turf work changes it
• Ask the seller and the association who maintains the strip between the lot line and the course

If you want the view without the balls, an opposite-fairway lot, a green-side lot or a home across the street from the course can be a good middle ground. If golf is occasional, an interior lot with a short cart ride may fit better.
