LAS VEGAS, NV – After months and months of skyrocketing rent increases that drove very real affordability concerns, the rental market in Las Vegas has finally begun to show signs of stabilizing in a positive manner. While units are still being leased at a healthy rate in Vegas and landlords are still purchasing buildings and developers are constructing new projects, rent increases have been dialed back and tenants have even begun to negotiate rental rates once again, a tactic that was pretty much nonexistent for the past couple of years, experts say. Whereas rent hikes of anywhere from $200 to $1,000 were…

LAS VEGAS, NV – Following long-standing reports that the residents of several neighboring states – in particular California – are moving to Las Vegas for its cheaper cost of living, a new development is seeing a large influx of Hawaiian residents now making their way to Sin City as well for more affordable lifestyles as well. Currently, Hawaiians – who refer to Las Vegas as the “ninth island” – are moving to Southern Nevada to escape the skyrocketing prices of housing on their home state, and when looking at the numbers, it’s easy to see why. In late 2022, the median price…

LAS VEGAS, NV – As the real estate marketplace continues to experience a cooldown amid record national inflation, spiking interest rates on mortgages, and skyrocketing home prices, one crafty Las Vegas seller is getting attention for the bold move of listing their house with a starting price of just $1 in an effort to draw more offers.

LAS VEGAS, NV – A “fix and flip” luxury residence located on Boulderback Drive in Las Vegas that was purchased and extensively renovated has now been listed on the open market for a whopping $5.895 million. Shelly Kramarczuk, principal and owner of SK Design, first noted the home earlier in 2022, and after purchasing the single-story, four-bedroom, 4,832 square-foot property, oversaw a complete transformation of its interior. Many of the changes in the home made extensive use of Neolith, a type of sintered stone made from three types of natural materials: Glass, Porcelain, and Quartz.

LAS VEGAS, NV – While real estate in Las Vegas – along with the entire country – has been facing a recent slowdown amid rampant inflation, high prices, and increasing mortgage rates, one aspect of the market has not only endured, but has actually continued to flourish- Southern Nevada’s warehouse market. In October, newly-built industrial park SunPoint West sold for $143 million to German asset manager DWS Group. What was especially notable about the sale was that before the construction on the facility was even completed in September, it had already been fully-leased by tenants. SunPoint West represents just one of…

LAS VEGAS, NV – After holding steady for months amid lowering home and condo prices due to the nation’s inflation and rising mortgage interest rates, prices of luxury homes in Las Vegas have finally begun to feel the sting as well, with September representing their first decrease in value since January 2021.

LAS VEGAS, NV – As Las Vegas’ real estate market begins to cool down overall amid rising mortgage rates and record inflation nationwide, the massive rent increases tenants have been seeing have started being walked back recently. While the average rent in Las Vegas in August was approximately $1,890 – representing an 8 percent jump from the same period of time in 2021 – it’s a far cry from the whopping 25 percent increase rents experienced from August 2020 to August 2021, reports say. So, while rents are still going up in some instances, the degree of which – with…
LAS VEGAS, NV – As the Federal Reserve continues to raise interest rates in an attempt to curb the 40-year high inflation that has been holding Americans in its crushing financial grip, home mortgage interest rates have been correspondingly raising along with them, hitting 6 percent last Thursday for the first time since the housing market crash of 2008. The loss of the cheap money that was fueling the nation’s home-buying frenzy during the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in an overall slowdown of the market, both in Las Vegas and nationwide, as prospective buyers have been putting the brakes on their house…
