Monthly Las Vegas Rental Report: How Much Can Homeowners Expect for Rent? (December)
LAS VEGAS, NV – The latest rental market figures for December 2025 show continued softening across the Las Vegas Valley. According to Zillow, the average rent for all bedrooms and all property types now stands at $1,912 per month, reflecting a $13 decrease since November and an $88 drop compared to this time last year (Data last updated December 6, 2025). Zumper, which tracks median rent across all unit types, reports the citywide median at $1,795 per month as of early December.
Together, these indicators suggest that rental prices are easing slightly at the start of winter, a period traditionally marked by slower leasing activity.
Breaking It Down: Limited Public Data for December
In prior months, the rental market reports included:
- A house vs. apartment average rent comparison, and
- A bedroom-by-bedroom breakdown (e.g., 2-bed, 3-bed, 4-bed).
However, publicly accessible sources did not provide current or verifiable December 2025 data for those categories at the time of publication. To maintain accuracy and avoid relying on stale or speculative information, these detailed breakdowns have been omitted for this month.
What This Means for Homeowners
| Metric | Snapshot |
|---|---|
| Market Trend | Rents continue to soften: average rent at $1,912 (–$13 MoM). |
| Median Levels | Citywide median sits at $1,795, indicating stable demand but moderated pricing. |
| Seasonal Cooling | As winter leasing slows, tenants may have slightly more negotiating power. |
| Owner Opportunities | Well-maintained homes priced competitively should still attract quality renters, even in a softened market. |

Insights & Action Steps
Stay Competitive in a Cooling Market:
With both the average and median rent trending slightly downward, presentation matters more than ever. Clean, well-maintained homes supported by professional photos and responsive communication stand out in a slower rental season.
Consider Strategic Pricing:
While market averages provide helpful guidance, the ideal rent for your property still depends on amenities, upgrades, layout, and neighborhood. Slight pricing adjustments during winter months can shorten vacancy time significantly.
Monitor Upcoming Data in Early 2026:
As new reports are released in January and February, updated information on houses vs. apartments and bedroom-level pricing should allow for more detailed analysis once again.
Use a Local Expert for Precision:
A personalized rental analysis remains the best way to determine accurate pricing – especially during monthly fluctuations where general market data may not tell the whole story. A free local rental analysis can dial in a price that attracts quality tenants while maximizing monthly income.
