Living in Sun City West
Seven golf courses, four recreation centers and active adult living done right.
Sun City West is a Del Webb active adult community of about 25,000 residents built between 1978 and 1997 in the Northwest Valley, just north of Sun City and west of Surprise. It is unincorporated Maricopa County, run by the Recreation Centers of Sun City West, and it delivers a lifestyle that is hard to match: seven golf courses, four recreation centers, more than 100 chartered clubs and Banner Del E. Webb Medical Center inside the community.
Angela has closed homes throughout Sun City West and in the neighboring gated community of Corte Bella. She understands the age qualification rules, the recreation center transfer requirements and the fees that come with a purchase here, and she walks buyers and sellers through them plainly so there are no surprises at closing.
