HOA amounts are approximate and subject to change. Always verify the current assessment for any specific property with the community’s HOA office. GVR dues ($545/yr) are additional for all GVR-deed communities.
Esperanza Estates is the only major Green Valley community where GVR is optional — not deed-restricted. Some homes have GVR; some don’t. This means you can live in Green Valley with full community amenities (pool, pickleball, trails) for just $48/month HOA and zero GVR obligation. No other community offers this. See the full Esperanza Estates page.
