LAS VEGAS, NV – Situated an approximate 20-minute drive west of the Las Vegas Strip, the master-planned community of Summerlin South has been becoming one of the most in-demand neighborhoods among the growing number of affluent sports stars and celebrities who have been calling Southern Nevada home in recent years.

Summerlin South is located within the development of Summerlin – also home to the communities of Sutherland North and West – and it is situated upon a 6,200-acre plot of land that originally began construction towards the end of the 1980s. Summerlin South is comprised of six residential districts, including the Red Rock Country Club, the Willows, the Gardens, Ridgebrook, Trilogy and Siena, all with their own unique layout, style, and amenities.

While Summerlin South features the same desert climate as the rest of Las Vegas, its residents experience a slightly cooler climate overall – anywhere from 5 to 7 degrees on average, with low humidity – due to the community’s higher elevation in general, which places it approximately 3,500 feet above sea level.

The homes in Summerlin South range in price by a wide degree depending on which neighborhood you’re looking at, going anywhere from a low of $500,000 to over $20 million, with the average luxury property fetching a minimum of $1 million and up.

A plethora of high-end amenities are the name of the game in Summerlin South, whose residents enjoy access to over 150 parks, 200 miles of scenic trails, numerous top-rated golf courses, recreational facilities, and Downtown Summerlin, which is a lavish, walkable shopping and entertainment center. In addition, Summerlin South’s constituent districts have their own dedicated amenities as well, including clubhouses, golf courses, parks, gyms, upscale restaurants and tennis clubs.

As for some of the more notable residents of Summerlin South, they include Hollywood A-lister Mark Wahlberg, acclaimed singer Celine Dion, musician Carlos Santana and numerous professional athletes such as Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams and Major League Hall of Fame baseball player Greg Maddux.

LAS VEGAS, NV – A custom-built home overlooking the famed Las Vegas Strip, described by its listing agent as “breathtaking” and boasting an aviation-themed design and impressive 30-foot ceilings, has been listed on the market for $18.5 million.

Located in Henderson within the MacDonald Highlands master-planned community of Dragon’s Reserve, the home – built by noted luxury developer Blue Heron in 2021 – features over 10,067 square-feet of living space with seven bathrooms.

The listing agent, Natalia Harris of Las Vegas Sotheby’s International Realty, said that the incredible views offered by the elevated property make it a unique find in Southern Nevada.

As you step inside, you instantly feel like you are soaring over Vegas,” she said. “The combination of the 30-foot ceilings, open floor and panoramic Strip, city and mountain views truly make it one of a kind.”

The listing notes that the home is filled with clever technological gadgets that give it a vibe like something out of a James Bond movie; these features include a hand sensor that allows you to access the primary suite with a mere gesture in the air, as well as 23-foot motorized pocket sliding doors.

1526 DRAGON CREST AVENUE, HENDERSON – $18,500,000.00

There are numerous other high-end amenities included with the impressive abode, including a full gym, a well-equipped chef’s kitchen, a spa, and even a 2,000-square-foot infinity pool.

The current owners of the property are both pilots, and have noted that the home was custom-built for them around an aviation-themed design aesthetic; to that end, the residence has numerous angles reminiscent of those you would find within airplanes and hangers, as well as glass walls and tall ceilings. There is also a large garage that houses the sellers’ personal aviation museum.

Despite sales of homes being down overall currently in Vegas, the luxury home market – as well as all-cash sales – are still red hot, and account for the majority of the transactions made in the region this past year.

LAS VEGAS, NV – While it had previously been known as a place where individuals would purchase vacation homes they would mainly visit on weekends, the Lake Las Vegas master-planned community has seen an explosion in development over the last few years – starting with the early months of the pandemic – and is currently poised to have its biggest sales year ever in 2024.

This news comes as additional nationwide attention will be focused on Lake Las Vegas in February, as both participating football teams in Super Bowl LVIII will be lodging at hotels located there, with the Kansas City Chiefs staying at Westin Lake Las Vegas, and the San Francisco 49ers at Hilton Lake Las Vegas.

In 2023, Lake Las Vegas saw its second-highest level of sales since the mid-2000s recession, with 302 new homes purchased; this represents a 42 percent jump over 2022, when 212 homes were sold. However, the highest number of homes sold at that community following the recession was 389 in 2021, which took place during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic when many people across the country were purchasing new residences.

We’ve had our second-best year ever and the sales are piling up on themselves,” said Pat Parker, President of Lake Las Vegas developer Raintree Investment Corp. “We had one person who bought four custom lots and then bought a house at (our Shoreline project). If you get a customer who does that, you’re doing well. We’re strong from $8 million all the way to $500,000.”

Sales in Lake Las Vegas have grown to such a degree that Pulte Del Webb Lake Las Vegas – a 55-and-up retirement community – saw the second highest number of sales in the entire Las Vegas Valley in 2023 with 148 brand-new homes purchased.

Sales of existing single-family homes have also been brisk in Lake Las Vegas, with 187 sold via the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) in 2023 – with an average sales price of $933,000 – exceeding the 144 sold in 2022 and 163 sold in 2021.

There were also 18 townhomes sold in Lake Las Vegas in 2023, with an average price of $516,000.

LAS VEGAS, NV – After changing hands several times in recent years, the former Las Vegas home of comedy legend Jerry Lewis is once again for sale, with the current owner asking $2.5 million.

Lewis had resided in the home – located in Las Vegas’ swanky Scotch 80s neighborhood – for almost 35 years; upon his death in 2017, it initially had difficulty in finding a buyer before eventually being sold to Jane Popple in 2019 for $1.2 million. It was then auctioned off for the sum of $2.5 million, but when the bid fell through, it was listed on the open market for $1.8 million.

Thereafter, the property was sold to Iddo Gavish of Century 21 Gavish Real Estate for approximately $1.4 million. Gavish had spruced up the property before putting up for sale, modernizing the home with several large-scale updates to the landscaping, gates, pool, master bathroom and kitchen due to a need for “rehab and renovation.”

Later, the home – which comes in at 7,230 square-feet and offers an impressive six bedrooms and six bathrooms – was purchased by Blooming Desert LLC in 2021 for $1.4 million. It was then put up for sale for a brief amount of time in 2022 for an asking price of $2.7 million; however, the home was later sold in September 2023 in a foreclosure sale for approximately $2 million to Brumbies Capital, a private lending company.

1701 WALDMAN AVENUE, LAS VEGAS – $2,500,000.00

Nate Strager of Luxury Estates International Is the listing agent for the property, which was put on the market on January 17. The home listing notes that additional renovations were carried out following the foreclosure amounting to approximately $40,000 worth of work, which focused mainly on landscaping and refinishing the pool.

Two sets of sliding glass doors gaze out to an extensively renovated backyard with new turf, mature trees, brick walkways, a gazebo and firepit-ready corner patio,” the listing says.

Other amenities in the house include a large chandelier in the family room, a covered balcony overlooking downtown Las Vegas, and a three-car garage with a small living space that could function as an additional bedroom.

LAS VEGAS, NV – 2023 saw an impressive number of condominium sales in Las Vegas, with the highest-priced property that exchanged hands last year taking place courtesy of Mark Davis, the owner of the Las Vegas Raiders NFL team, who sold off his condo located in Summerlin’s affluent The Summit Club for a cool $10.5 million.

Davis – who had originally listed the condo for $13.5 million – purchased the 2,862-square-foot unit in March 2021 for $5.3 million, making the sale price a substantial return on his initial investment.

Clark County property records lists Stay Away LLC as the buyer of the two-story condo, which boasts two bedrooms, two three-quarter baths, one half bath, a great room with a fireplace, a large kitchen, and a balcony.

Davis made the decision to sell his condo because he wanted to be closer to West Henderson, where the Raiders’ headquarters is located. At the time of the listing, he reportedly stated he realized he would be unable to see the Raiders’ Allegiant Stadium from The Summit Club abode, which was “starting to drive me crazy.”

Davis currently has a $14 million home under construction at 77 Sunset Strip in the Henderson hillsides of Ascaya, where he plans to reside full-time.

The 15,000-square-foot Ascaya residence is being developed by luxury builder Blue Heron on a 6.3-acre plot of land that Davis purchased for $6 million. The three-story home is being built so that it resembles Allegiant Stadium – of which it will have unobstructed views – with the upper floor being patterned after the bridge of a ship.

Following Davis’ condominium, the number two condo sale in Las Vegas for 2023 was an $8 million tie between a 6,401-square-foot penthouse at Turnberry Place and a 3,922-square-foot condo at the Waldorf Astoria on the Las Vegas Strip.

LAS VEGAS, NV – Rising home prices in Nevada, coupled with a rapidly increasing number of single-family houses being snatched up by corporate investors to be used as rentals properties, has made the path to home ownership for some state residents wrought with insurmountable obstacles due to affordability concerns and an overall lack of inventory.

Investors have been snapping up a significant number of residences in southern Nevada in recent years, with approximately 15 percent of single-family homes in Clark County being owned by such entities. The scope of this issue was laid bare by a report earlier this month that revealed a Dallas-based corporate landlord – backed by Wall Street – had purchased 264 homes in Clark County in a massive sale that took place on a single day in the summer of 2023.

Nevada lawmakers have previously introduced bills with the intent to limit and track the number of homes purchased by investors within the state. The most recent attempt pushed forth during the 2023 state legislative session, SB 395, was vetoed by Governor Joe Lombardo, who claimed the bill would have had a detrimental effect upon jobs, tax revenue, and the availability of rental properties.

However, action on this matter is now potentially being taken on a federal level. U.S. Senator Jacky Rosen and Congressman Steven Horseford, both Nevada-based Democrats, are co-sponsoring a bill called the Housing Oversight and Mitigating Exploitation (HOME) Act which, if passed, would make it illegal for any entity to rent or sell a unit at a price that was considered unreasonable, in addition to tasking the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) with investigating instances of alleged price gouging and manipulation on the part of corporate investors.

Sky-high costs of housing and rent are hurting hardworking Nevadans and putting a strain on their budgets,” Senator Rosen said. “That’s why I’m introducing a bill to crack down on price gouging by corporate investors and lower housing costs for Nevada families. I’m committed to doing everything I can to lower costs and give Nevadans more breathing room.”

LAS VEGAS, NV – Despite an increase in sales prices over the course of 2023, a new report indicates that the year was the slowest the Las Vegas Valley housing market has seen since 2008 – a time span of 15 years – with an 18 percent drop from 2022 alone.

According to new statistics from Las Vegas Realtors, in December 2023 the medium price of a single-family home was $449,900, an increase of approximately 6% when compared to the same month in 2022, when that amount was $425,000. However, December 2023’s prices still fall below the all-time record of $482,000, which was originally set in May 2022.

Las Vegas Realtors President Merri Perry – who recently succeeded Lee Barrett in the position – said that the fall in sales can mostly be attributed to a limited housing supply in the region, and anticipates that 2024 will see the Las Vegas real estate scene bounce back in a very real way.

It was good to see interest rates coming back down late in the year. That helps more buyers afford a home,” Perry said. “While we still need more homes on the market, many national experts are predicting at least some increase in the housing supply as we get into 2024. That should help buyers and help us sell more homes.”

Overall, 29,069 existing homes, condominiums, and townhomes were sold in Southern Nevada in 2023, a decrease of 18% from 2022, when 35,584 were sold; in contrast, 2021 saw a record-setting number of home sales for the year at 50,010.

Listings of new homes in Las Vegas saw a 10.3% decrease when compared to November, and a 30% decrease year-over-year. However, housing prices jumped 1.3% in December from the previous month and a whopping 19.5% from December 2022.

Experts are also attributing “sticker shock” to the slowdown in home sales due to elevated interest rates on mortgages. But with those rates anticipated to begin to slowly drop in the coming year, that may fuel more instances of home purchases, particularly in light of the fact that home values currently don’t appear to be dropping. After all, if rates start to drop but prices continue to increase, experts say, it’s better to buy now than in the future when prices may be even higher.

LAS VEGAS, NV – According to a new report released this week, a Dallas-based corporate landlord backed by Wall Street purchased hundreds of homes in Clark County in a massive sale that took place on a single day in the summer of 2023.

Spread out amongst three separate residential transactions that took place on July 18, a whopping 264 homes in Clark County were purchased by Invitation Homes (NYSE: INVH) from the Miami-based investment firm Starwood Capital Group. The three transactions consisted of $57.5 million for 155 homes, $26.3 million for 70 homes, and $14.1 million for 39 homes, for a grand total of $98 million, as per Clark County property records.

94 of the homes sold were located in the city of Las Vegas, With an additional 77 homes in North Las Vegas. The purchase price for the homes in question ranged from between $292,000 to $694,000, with the average price being $371,514.

While that deal between Starwood Capital and Invitation Homes may seem mind-bogglingly huge, it was merely part of a larger transaction between the two entities that consisted of a $650 million real estate portfolio swap for approximately 1,900 single-family rental homes, most of which are spread out amongst areas in Texas, Florida, Arizona, Nevada, and California.

The deal is part of an ongoing phenomenon where hedge funds and corporate landlords backed by Wall Street – in addition to affluent investors – have been responsible for a rash of purchases of single-family homes across the country in recent years that they then typically utilize as rental properties. However, experts say this has been contributing to a shortage of affordable housing for families, in addition to being responsible for a rise in rental rates as well.

At this rate, according to a study by MetLife Investment Management, by 2030 approximately 40 percent of all houses in the United States could be owned by Wall Street corporations.

LAS VEGAS, NV – As 2023 draws to a close on one of the more unusual and noteworthy years in Las Vegas real estate, let’s take a look back over the past 365 days and highlight the top residential sales that have taken place in Southern Nevada. Despite the market experiencing a slowdown overall, some very high-priced homes changed hands in Clark County in 2023, and below you’ll see the top five in reverse order, with the exception of multiparcel sales.

Number five is Skyspace, located at 7 Painted Feather Way in Summerlin’s The Ridges neighborhood, which sold in September for $15.9 million. The 12,162 square-foot residence boasts five bedrooms, six bathrooms, and numerous high-end touches, including a full Italian Scavolini kitchen.

Coming in at number four is a mansion at 8 Rockmount Court in Henderson’s affluent Ascaya community.  This 12,101 square foot home is located on a 2.27-acre plot of land and sold in June for $20.5 million. It has six bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a six-car garage, a pool, and even a putting green.

Number three is a residence located at 11765 Discovery Canyon Drive in Summerlin’s pricey The Summit Club, which traded hands in August for $21.2 million. The home – which was reportedly purchased by an individual on behalf of Hollywood actor Mark Wahlberg – comes in at 8,419 square feet and has six bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, and a pool.

A massive mega-mansion compound located on a 16-acre plot of land at 99 Spanish Gate Drive in Las Vegas’ wealthy Spanish Trail community sold in December for $25 million. The compound – previously linked to Jefri Bolkiah, the prince of Brunei – boasts a super-impressive 25 bedrooms and 46 bathrooms, spread amongst 10 interconnected buildings.

And finally, the number one residential sale in Las Vegas for 2023 comes courtesy of pop megastar Celine Dion, who sold her mansion – located at 10850 Summit Club Drive in The Summit Club – in April for $30 million, setting a new all-time Clark County record in the process. Dion originally purchased the home – which comes in at over 30,985 square feet and has 9.5 bathrooms – in 2017 for 9.2 million, but reportedly never actually moved into it.

LAS VEGAS, NV – With the last bits of COVID-19-era inflation hopefully evaporating next year, Las Vegas real estate experts are expecting current record-high home mortgage interest rates to drop slightly in 2024, slowly transforming Southern Nevada into a “buyers’ market” after several years of the reverse being the case.

However, those same experts are shooting down hopes that interest rates will eventually return to the extremely affordable levels they were at during the start of the pandemic, saying that no matter how much they do go down, elevated rates are expected to be the new norm going forward.

After the Federal Reserve raised interest rates numerous times in order to combat the 40-year high inflation gripping the nation, all eyes are on the agency after their announcement they intend to finally cut interest rates three times in 2024.

Las Vegas Realtors President Lee Barrett said he expects the overnight federal funds rate to indeed decrease next year, but does not anticipate they will eventually get back December 2022’s 4.1 percent; the current average rate for a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage is 7.2 percent.

This is going to be the new norm, higher interest rates and higher mortgage rates,” Barrett said. “They may drop, for the election a little bit, but I think 6.5 or 7 percent is where they are going to range next year.”

That being said, many real estate experts are predicting that 2024 will potentially see the Las Vegas Valley have its worst year for sales since 2008, with some saying it is a genuine mystery where the industry will head next year. However, with inflation improving and mortgage rates expected to come down a bit – leading to many who were holding out on listing their homes due to higher mortgage costs to finally do so – experts anticipate that the industry will shift towards a buyer’s market.

But that is not a certainty, experts say, as Las Vegas has a low inventory of properties currently available, and despite dropping sales figures, home sellers have for the most part been steadfastly refusing to cut their asking prices. Indeed, prices are only expected to drop 1 percent in the second and third quarters of 2024, creating what is known as a “locking” phenomenon in the Southern Nevada market.

Indeed, where the Las Vegas real estate market will go in 2024 is anybody’s guess at this point; the only thing that appears to be sure is that nothing is for sure.

LAS VEGAS, NV – Located within a gated community of Las Vegas’ Summerlin neighborhood, a lavish single-story house hit the market for nearly $2.1 million and quickly sold, signifying how luxury sales in Southern Nevada have remained relatively unaffected by the ongoing inflation and high mortgage interest rates impacting the rest of the country.

Situated within Onyx Point – a gated community at the Cliffs of Summerlin – the home, located at 10020 Terrastone Drive, first listed for $2.075 million and is comprised of 3,490 square feet of living space spread out over four bedrooms, four baths, an office, a three-car garage, and a large backyard.

According to realtor Sarah Gabany, who is representing the seller, the residence was designed with an eye for detail and features numerous amenities and contemporary flourishes, such as 12-foot exposed beam ceilings, porcelain tile with a wooden finish, and several fireplaces.

This single-story home seamlessly combines modern sophistication with natural charm all while being set along Summerlin’s cliff line,” Gabany said. “Situated in an exclusive neighborhood of just 60 homes, it provides a quaint and strong sense of community where neighbors know each other.”

Features include a courtyard with covered entry; an open concept layout with multislider doors that provide a seamless conduit between the indoors and outdoors; a living room with an electric tile fireplace; a chef’s kitchen with a 12.5-foot quartz waterfall island, stainless steel appliances – including a double oven and oversized refrigerator – and white tile backsplash; and a three-car garage with electric vehicle chargers, storage racks, and multiple cabinets.

Meanwhile, the main bathroom offers marble floors, granite countertops, and dual vanities, in addition to a floor-to-ceiling marble tiled shower and soaking tub.

While the furniture is not included in the asking price, interested buyers are able to negotiate to potentially add it to the sale for an additional fee.

The high sale price for this home is yet another example of how the luxury housing market in Las Vegas has defied recent trends; whereas home sales have slowed overall amid the economic turmoil that is gripping the nation, the luxury market in Southern Nevada has not only held steady, but shown signs of continued growth.

The home sold on December 12th, for $2,000,000.

LAS VEGAS, NV – The Gold Spike & Oasis Hotel, a historic property located in downtown Las Vegas and previously owned by late Zappos boss Tony Hsieh, has been listed on the open market by his family, which has engaged the services of brokerage firm Logic Commercial Real Estate to aid in the sale.

According to Logic Commercial Real Estate’s website, the Hsieh family began accepting offers earlier in December, although no asking price has been listed as of yet, and it is as of yet unknown if any offers have been made or accepted on the hotel.

The Gold Spike & Oasis Hotel is comprised of two adjacent properties with a combined 70,861-square-feet in size, situated on 1.5-acre plot of land. The hotel offers a total of 130 rooms split amongst the two buildings, as well as a bar and a nightlife entertainment venue.

The establishment has not been providing gambling to patrons, but it nonetheless still possesses a Nevada gaming license, which has been preserved by the current ownership.

Originally opening its doors for business in 1976 under the name of The Rendezvous, the Gold Spike & Oasis was purchased by Hsieh in 2013 for $22 million.

Hsieh passed away in November 2021 at the age of 46 due to injuries suffered in a Connecticut house fire, reports say.

For two decades, Hsieh – who was worth hundreds of millions of dollars at the time of his death – headed up retail shoe selling giant Zappos before selling it to Amazon in 2009 for over $1 billion; he later retired as CEO in August 2020. He is also credited for having pledged $350 million to the renovation and revitalization of Downtown Las Vegas.

In February 2021, much of the Las Vegas real estate empire amassed by Hsieh was listed on the open market by his family, totaling nearly 100 properties throughout the downtown area.

Recently, Logic Commercial Real Estate was tasked with selling an additional five of Hsieh’s properties, including The Gold Spike & Oasis, The Downtowner Hotel, the John E. Carson office and the building occupied by Nacho Daddy on Fourth Street.
