New Lake Las Vegas Community with Designs by Celebrity Designer Begins Home Sales

LAS VEGAS, NV – A new Lake Las Vegas community developed by Tri Pointe Homes and boasting interior designs by a noted celebrity designer has begun sales this week.

Dubbed Lakeview Ridge, the 54-home development currently has three model homes for prospective buyers to check out, all of which feature designs by Bobby Berk, star of the Netflix series “Queer Eye.” Berk served as the interior design expert for the shows first eight seasons, a role for which he won a Primetime Emmy Award.

The homes in Lakeview Ridge are part of the Tri Pointe Homes’ BB Edit Program, where buyers can opt to choose one of Berk’s interior designs for their home, in addition to options to have the rooms furnished as well.

Berk has been working with Tri Pointe for the past decade, having first collaborated with them by designing a show home for the International Builders Show; he has since been responsible for the designs of multiple of the developer’s communities in Southern Nevada.

Lakeview Ridge’s residences are part of Tri Pointe’s “affordable luxury” line, with prices ranging from $800,000 to $1 million; Tri Pointe Homes Division President Klif Andrews noted that this puts an affluent lifestyle into the hands of people without breaking the bank.

There’s a lot of luxury touches that are still, kind of, at what I would call an affordable price point,” he said. “We can combine this affordable luxury with great views.”

Buyers will have three floorplans to pick from, ranging in size from 2,500 to 4,000 square-feet, and – aside from the basic floorplan – are all fully able to be customized to residents’ tastes, with amenity options that include large sliding glass doors and windows, glass staircases, pivot doors, kitchen amenities, spa style showers, and much more.

Lakeview Ridge has already sold four residences and counting, and Tri Points already has four other such communities in the works in Southern Nevada for this year.

Las Vegas Among Hardest-Hit Cities When It Comes to Home Sale Cancellations

LAS VEGAS, NV – A new report from Redfin indicates that Las Vegas is one of the hardest-hit cities in the nation when it comes to sale cancellations in December 2025, the latest month sales data is currently on record.

In December, buyers across the country put the kibosh on a total of over 40,000 sales agreements, making up 16.3 percent of all deals; this represents a 14.9 percent increase year-over-year, and the highest number of cancelled sales since 2017.

Las Vegas, Nevada has been swept up in this trend, ranking in the top five major metropolitan areas analyzed by Redfin in this respect, with almost 20 percent of homes coming out of escrow in December.

Currently, the average sales price of a single-family home in Las Vegas stands at $439,000.

When broken down to cancellations in major metros, San Jose, California saw the largest annual increase in home purchase cancellations at 6.8 percentage points (ppts) to 8.9 percent in December. It was followed by Oakland, California with 6.3 ppts to 11.3 percent; Sacramento, California with 4.7 ppts to 17.9 percent; Atlanta, Georgia with 4.4 ppts to 22.5 percent; and Las Vegas with 3.5 ppts to 19 percent.

Chen Zhao, head of economics research at Redfin, said that there are a number of factors that are contributing to the jump in sale cancellations, leading to buyers being more willing to pump the brakes and adopting a “wait and see” approach to the market.

High housing costs and rising inventory have made homebuyers more selective,” he said. “Home sellers outnumber buyers by a record margin, meaning the buyers who are in the market have options and may walk away if they believe they can find a better or more affordable home.”

The good news for buyers, according to Redfin, is that “mortgage payments have declined recently thanks to a drop in mortgage rates, and price growth is also easing,” with Redfin economists expecting “affordability to gently improve in 2026 as wages rise faster than housing costs.”

Number of Las Vegas Homes Now Owned by Investors Now at Nearly 100,000

Feds Look to Ban Single-Family Home Purchases by Large Corporate Investors

LAS VEGAS, NV – In response to ongoing home affordability issues in the United States fueled by large, Wall Street-backed investors snapping up houses in large numbers across the nation to use as rentals, President Donald Trump announced that his administration will attempt to ban such activity going forward.

On Trump’s social media platform, Truth Social, the Republican president outlined his plan to work with Congress on preventing corporate investors from further entrenching themselves into the residential real estate market – while also taking shots at his predecessor, Joe Biden, and the Democratic Party – and said that he would further speak on the matter at the Davos World Economic Forum in Switzerland later this month.

For a very long time, buying and owning a home was considered the pinnacle of the American Dream,” Trump said in his Truth Social post. “It was the reward for working hard, and doing the right thing, but now, because of the Record High Inflation caused by Joe Biden and the Democrats in Congress, that American Dream is increasingly out of reach for far too many people, especially younger Americans.”

Trump called upon the assistance on Congress in making the corporate ban into law in order to help make housing more affordable for Americans, and noted that he would be revealing further housing proposals at the upcoming World Economic Forum.

It is for that reason, and much more, that I am immediately taking steps to ban large institutional investors from buying more single-family homes, and I will be calling on Congress to codify it,” he said. “People live in homes, not corporations. I will discuss this topic, including further Housing and Affordability proposals, and more, at my speech in Davos in two weeks.”

Prices of homes jumped to record-highs during COVID-19; since the end of the pandemic, costs have lowered but nonetheless remain above the norm – as have mortgage rates – with the median sale price of a single-family home in 2025 coming in at $410,800.

Majority of Homes on Las Vegas Market Financially Out-of-Reach to Average Buyer, Report Says

LAS VEGAS, NV – As per a new report from personal finance website Bankrate, the majority of homes available on the market in Las Vegas are currently out-of-reach financially to the average buyer amid both soaring prices and high interest rates on mortgages.

Bankrate’s report notes that out of all the homes that are presently available on the real estate market in Southern Nevada, only 14 percent of them fall into the “affordable” category for the typical family. In contrast, the average number of homes that are considered affordable nationally is approximately 25 percent.

Low housing costs over the years have led to a population explosion in the Las Vegas Valley, but recently those costs have increased amid ever-rising asking prices and pricey borrowing rates. Due to this, many families looking to buy homes in Southern Nevada are finding it harder and harder to do so, and as a result, overall sales in the region are dropping significantly.

As per Bankrate, the average household in the Valley needs to be making $33,600 over and above their current annual income to be able to afford the price of a median-priced home. The median sale price of a single-family home in Las Vegas in November reached an all-time record high of $488,995, which represents a two percent increase year-over-year.

With wages struggling to keep up, housing affordability has reached historically low levels in recent years,” Bankrate’s report said, noting that Southern Nevada is in worse shape in that regard than many other metros, with the ability to buy a home there “significantly harder today” than it was prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.

But with that being said, buying a home nearly anywhere in the country, at present, “is no longer as realistic as it used to be,” the Bankrate said, although buyers moving to Vegas from more costly cities – such as Los Angeles, California – would find the real estate market far more affordable in comparison, according to the report.

Las Vegas’ Condo Market Ranks Among Most Imbalanced Out of Top 50 Metros, Report Says

LAS VEGAS, NV – According to a new report by Redfin, the condominium market in the Las Vegas Valley is ranking among the most imbalanced out of the top major metropolitan areas in the United States, in terms of the number of sellers versus buyers.

The Valley’s condo market came in 13th out of the 50 major metros in Redfin’s report, with the number of sellers currently far outstripping buyers in the real estate marketplace. In August, there were 2,449 condo sellers in the valley, as compared to a mere 853 potential buyers; this represents a whopping 187 percent imbalance in favor of buyers, Redfin’s data says.

The national average in August was approximately 72.3 percent more condo sellers than buyers.

The median price of a condo in Las Vegas in August was $245,000, down from the peak price of $269,000 in June 2024; the record number of condos sold in Southern Nevada was 751 in April 2021 – in the midst of the buying frenzy that took place during the COVID-19 pandemic – but in August 2025, a mere 265 condos changed hands, Redfin said.

According to Redfin Senior Economist Asad Khan, the condo market in the valley is currently favoring buyers, and that gives them an advantage when negotiating for the time being.

Condo buyers can negotiate prices down and ask sellers for concessions, and they have a lot of options to choose from,’ he said. “Even though condo prices are still fairly high and HOA fees are rising, condos are still more affordable than single-family homes. That’s especially true for people planning to hold onto their condo for several years. With some would-be condo sellers pulling back, buyers may not have this much negotiating power for long.”

Prices in Las Vegas Rental Home Marketplace Increasing Among Fastest in Country

What You Should Know About Renting in Las Vegas in 2025

LAS VEGAS, NV – Renting in Las Vegas in 2025 offers both opportunities and challenges for tenants, young professionals, and newcomers to the city. Known for its vibrant lifestyle, favorable tax environment, and growing job market, Las Vegas continues to attract residents from across the country. However, as with any growing metropolitan area, the rental market is shaped by evolving trends in pricing, availability, and regulations. Understanding these dynamics is essential for anyone considering a move to the Vegas Valley or renewing their lease this year.

This guide will help you navigate the rental landscape in Las Vegas by exploring current market trends, average rent prices, renter rights, short-term rental laws, and affordability factors. Whether you are searching for your first apartment, relocating for work, or simply interested in the state of the market, the insights here will give you a clear picture of what to expect. For even more localized information and tenant resources, you can visit our Las Vegas Renter Information page.

The Rental Market Landscape in 2025

Las Vegas has long been considered one of the more affordable major cities in the western United States, but recent years have seen steady increases in rental rates due to population growth (Much from neighboring California), housing demand, and economic expansion. While developers have introduced new apartment complexes and mixed-use communities, the influx of residents has kept occupancy high.

Many neighborhoods are experiencing revitalization, and areas such as Downtown Las Vegas, Summerlin, and Henderson have seen significant upgrades to infrastructure and amenities. This growth has been beneficial for renters seeking modern housing options, but it has also pushed average rent prices upward. The key to securing a good deal in 2025 is to act quickly when a desirable property becomes available and to understand which neighborhoods match your budget and lifestyle needs.

Average Rent Prices in Las Vegas for 2025

The average rent in Las Vegas in 2025 varies based on location, property type, and amenities. Downtown and the Arts District tend to command higher rents due to proximity to entertainment, nightlife, and cultural attractions. Summerlin and Henderson offer more suburban lifestyles with larger properties and higher price points, while North Las Vegas remains one of the more affordable options for larger units.

For studio and one-bedroom apartments, rents remain competitive compared to other major cities in the region, but they have risen compared to pre-2020 averages. Two-and three-bedroom rentals are in particularly high demand among families and roommate households, which means that properties in good condition with modern features often get leased within days of listing. Renters looking for the best value in 2025 may want to consider emerging areas such as the southwest valley, where development is ongoing but prices have not yet reached their peak.

The affordability of a rental property should be evaluated in the context of utilities, parking fees, and any additional community charges. This holistic approach ensures that you understand the full monthly cost of living in your chosen property.

Renter Rights and Protections

Renting in Las Vegas comes with specific rights and protections under Nevada state law. Tenants are entitled to safe and habitable living conditions, proper notice before rent increases or lease terminations, and the return of their security deposit within the required timeframe after moving out, provided the unit is left in good condition. Landlords must follow legal procedures when entering a rental unit, addressing repairs, or initiating eviction proceedings.

In 2025, awareness of these rights is more important than ever, especially given the competitive nature of the market. Tenants should review their lease agreements thoroughly before signing and be prepared to ask questions about maintenance responsibilities, late fee policies, and renewal terms.

Short-Term Rental Laws in Las Vegas

Short-term rentals, such as those listed on Airbnb or Vrbo, remain a popular option for property owners and travelers alike, but they are subject to specific regulations in Las Vegas. Clark County, the City of Las Vegas, and the City of Henderson each have their own distinct rules governing permits, occupancy limits, and zoning restrictions. In many cases, operating a short-term rental without the proper licensing can result in significant fines; one case in the City of Las Vegas reached $180k.

For renters, it is important to understand whether a property is legally permitted for short-term stays, especially if you are subletting or considering a flexible lease that allows temporary hosting. Regulations have been updated in recent years to balance the needs of residents, property owners, and the tourism industry, so staying informed about these laws is essential. Shelter Realty provides guidance for those navigating both long-term and short-term rental agreements in compliance with local laws.

Affordability Considerations for Renters

Affordability in Las Vegas is relative. While rents are lower than in cities like Los Angeles or San Francisco, they have increased enough in recent years to challenge some budgets. Renters in 2025 should carefully consider total housing costs, which include rent, utilities, transportation expenses, and lifestyle costs such as dining, entertainment, and recreation.

Choosing the right neighborhood can have a significant impact on affordability. Areas farther from the Strip and the city center tend to offer larger properties for lower rent, but may come with longer commutes. Newer apartment complexes may include desirable amenities like gyms, pools, and security features, but these often come with higher rents and additional fees. For those new to the city or moving within the Valley, scheduling a consultation with a local rental expert through the Shelter Realty Contact Page can help identify the most cost-effective housing options that align with your needs.

Lifestyle Factors to Consider When Renting

Renting in Las Vegas offers a wide range of lifestyle choices, from high-rise living with sweeping views of the Strip to quiet suburban communities with parks and walking trails. Young professionals may gravitate toward Downtown and Midtown, where nightlife and cultural events are abundant. Families often choose areas like Henderson or Summerlin for their excellent schools, safety, and community amenities. Retirees and remote workers may prefer quieter neighborhoods with easy access to golf courses, shopping centers, and healthcare facilities.

Your choice of neighborhood should reflect not just your budget, but also your preferred lifestyle, commute times, and proximity to the amenities you value most. With Las Vegas continuing to expand outward, there are more choices than ever before for renters in 2025.

Las Vegas Turning into a Renter

Las Vegas’ Rent Lower Than Other Metros with Similar Populations, Report Says

LAS VEGAS, NV – As per a newly-released report, the rent in the Las Vegas Valley is actually lower than other major metropolitan areas throughout the country with similar population sizes.

According to Zumper, as of the beginning of June 2025, the median price for a one-bedroom rental unit in Clark County was $1,250 per month, making it the most affordable area out of the five U.S. metros that are comparable in size and number of residents.

Meanwhile, the most expensive metro of that group is Denver County, Colorado, where the median rent is $1,512 per month, followed by Sacramento County, California with $1,500 per month, Travis County in Austin, Texas at $1,476, and Multnomah County in Portland, Oregon at $1,425.

In contrast, the next cheapest major metro after Las Vegas in terms of one-bedroom rent is Salt Lake County, Utah, at $1,230 per month.

When it comes to two-bedroom rentals, the current going rate in Vegas as of the start of June was $1,500, which is the same amount it was during the same period of time one year prior but a 3.2 percent decrease when compared to May 2025.

Zumper’s report shows a serious shift in overall patterns when it comes to rental prices nationwide, where numbers are either dropping or at the very least remaining flat in the majority of the major metro areas that they examined. One of the main reasons for this is likely due to the large number of apartment units coming into the market over the course of 2025, leading to a surge in inventory, according to Zumper CEO Anthemos Georgiades.

Even with ongoing economic uncertainty, the U.S. rental market continues to demonstrate striking resilience,” he said in a statement. “While the national rent rates are slightly down from last year, that softness is misleading. In the context of a historic wave of new supply, the limited decline in rents is a strong indicator of how powerful renter demand remains.”

Henderson, Nevada

Henderson Nevada Ranked in Top Five Best Large Cities for First-Time Homebuyers

LAS VEGAS, NV – Nowadays, young families are struggling more than ever to purchase their first home. Due to a combination of soaring home prices and near-record high interest rates on home mortgages, the dream of home ownership is slowly slipping away from many Americans.

However, there are some areas of the country where you have a better shot of finding an affordable home than others, and according to personal finance website WalletHub, three cities in Nevada rank in the top 300 of the best places for first-time homebuyers, with one of those cities actually placing way up in the list’s prestigious top five.

WalletHub’s Best & Worst Cities for First-Time Home Buyers ranking takes numerous factors into account when establishing its placings, including affordability, the overall real estate market, and quality of life, drawing data from numerous sources, including the U.S. Census Bureau, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Department of Housing and Urban Development, as well as the FBI.

Overall, Reno was ranked at no. 52 and North Las Vegas at no. 39, although both of these Nevadan cities actually ranked even higher when compared to other cities whose population sizes were similar.

However, Henderson ranked at no. 18 on the list overall, and that placing shot up to an impressive no. 5 when compared to other large cities with populations of 300,000 and higher.

Henderson also drew high marks overall in individual categories such as affordability, where it placed at no. 50 in terms of home price vs. household income, insurance costs, real estate taxes, and cost per square foot. It also placed at no. 132 for quality of life, which takes into account factors such as school system quality, crime rates, weather, driver friendliness and job market.

Henderson also reached no. 42 in the real estate market category, which examines variables such as rent-to-price ratio, home price appreciation, foreclosure rate, number of listings, and millennial homeownership.

Condo, Townhome Prices in Las Vegas Increasing Due to Demand Fueled by High House Prices

LAS VEGAS, NV – According to a new report released by Las Vegas Realtors (LVR), prices of condominiums and townhomes in the Las Vegas Valley are on the rise due to increasing demand fueled by high house prices in the region.

Based on LVR data pulled from the Multiple Listing Service, the median price of a condo or townhome sold in Southern Nevada in May 2025 was $307,000, which represents a 1.4 percent increase from April 2025 and a 4.1 jump year-over-year. However, the number of condos and townhomes sold in the valley in May was 559, which is 2.8 percent higher than April but a 19 percent decrease from the same period of time last year.

Meanwhile, the median price of a single-family home in Las Vegas has been consistently remaining at $480,000, just shy of the all-time record high level that was reached earlier in 2025, LVR says.

Given that the current high prices in the Southern Nevada single-family home market are driving very real affordability concerns for many people in the region, Henderson Re/Max Advantage associate Robert Little notes that some buyers are feeling priced out and are seeking other housing options that are more in line with their budgets…mainly, condos and townhomes.

I believe this is largely due to affordability,” he said. “Condos, with a current median price of $307,000, are more accessible than single-family homes, which have a median price of $480,000. This makes them especially attractive to first-time buyers, second-home purchasers, or those on fixed incomes and tighter budgets.”

This rising demand for condos and townhomes is correspondingly serving to drive prices in that market up, but LVR President George Kypreos said that monthly sales numbers can fluctuate wildly in Las Vegas and it’s best to keep an eye on the big picture instead of the small details.

While local condo sales and prices did post a modest increase in May, I wouldn’t read too much into it,” he said. “I do think it suggests that more buyers are recognizing that condos and townhomes can be a more affordable way to enter the housing market, especially with home prices hovering just below record levels and mortgage interest rates still higher than we’d like.”

HARD HATS PeopleImages.com - Yuri A

Construction on Visions Park Apartment Complex for Visually Impaired Las Vegas Residents Reaches Halfway Point

LAS VEGAS, NV – Following the facility’s groundbreaking ceremony that took place in September 2024, construction on Visions Park – a unique and pioneering affordable living apartment complex in downtown Las Vegas that caters exclusively to the needs of blind and visually impaired residents – has officially reached its halfway point, according to officials.

To celebrate the construction milestone, the Blind Center of Nevada invited local dignitaries and officials on a tour – while wearing hard hats, of course, since it is an active work zone – to review the progress on the complex, which is situated near the Blind Center’s main campus at 950 Visions Park Lane.

This collaborative $30 million project was brought to life – financed via $4 million from the city of Las Vegas, $15 million from the State of Nevada, $1.5 million from the city of North Las Vegas, $1.5 million from the city of Henderson and $8 million from Clark County – in order to create an apartment complex that is accessible to those who rely on the resources of the Blind Center.

Upon completion, Visions Park will feature numerous amenities to help sight-challenged tenants retain some degree of independence, including flooring that makes different kinds of noises when you walk on it in order to help blind individuals navigate, as well as special types of lighting to assist those who are visually impaired.

In addition, the project will aid in reducing travel time and costs getting to and from the Blind Center, as currently some report a commute of anywhere from one to two hours every day, according to Henderson City Councilwoman Carrie Cox.

It takes a toll. I’ve had a personal experience with my own mother and seeing her sight fail her towards the end of her life,” Cox said, noting that her mother’s situation improved when she began attending the Blind Center. “And to know the difference that that made for her, there was really not a lot of options. So, this is amazing to me that the Blind Center has taken this leap to bring us all together and to make something happen for those that are visually impaired.”

Visions Park is slated to open in the beginning of 2026; there are already 300 people on the waiting list.

House-Buying in Las Vegas

You Would Need to Earn Nearly $114K to Afford Average Home in Las Vegas, Report Says

LAS VEGAS, NV – According to a new study from Clever Real Estate based on data obtained from the U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis, the Las Vegas Valley now ranks as the 27th most affordable major metropolitan area in the United States when home prices and annual income are directly compared.

Based on this study, how much would the average Southern Nevada household need to be pulling in each year to afford a home?

Currently, the median price of an existing single-family home in the valley is $449,000, whereas the median annual household income is $75,065. So, as per the data contained in Clever Real Estate’s report, a household would need to be earning an annual income of $113,839 to afford the purchase of an average home with a down payment of 20 percent.

However, if you’re planning on buying a house in the valley with no money down, that yearly income requirement obviously needs to be higher; in this instance, it would have to go up to at least $138,826.

Henderson Re/Max Advantage associate Robert Little noted that the housing market in the valley, while improving for buyers, is still driving some low-earners out of the equation for the time being.

Affordability remains a real concern in the Las Vegas housing market, especially with today’s higher mortgage rate,” he said. “That said, we’ve seen a softening in prices this year, and the market has shifted slightly in favor of buyers, which offers some relief.”

Little said that despite greater and greater amounts of inventory opening up in Las Vegas, home prices are still lingering at nearly record-high levels. But despite that, he explained, there are signs that things are indeed changing.

Depending on how a home is priced relative to the competition, it’s not unusual for buyers to negotiate a price reduction, have closing costs covered by the seller, or use concessions to buy down their mortgage rate,” he said. “Builders are also stepping up with aggressive incentives—often covering all closing costs or offering significant rate buy-downs to attract buyers.”

New York Hedge Fund Owns Nearly 3,200 Homes in Clark County, According to Property Records

LAS VEGAS, NV – A large hedge fund based out of New York is the single-largest owner of homes in Clark County at nearly 3,200 units, according to the county’s property records.

Pretium Partners, a hedge fund that manages over $55 billion in assets, is the owner of Progress Residential, a home rental property management company that – as of the end of February, 2025 – owns 3,190 homes in the county, as per officially-confirmed data.

But that number could, in fact, potentially be higher, as typically real estate investors make it difficult to track their dealings by buying properties under the guise of various limited liability companies (LLCs), often with different-yet-similar names. For example, according to Clark County records, at least five of LLCs that have purchased property contain the word “Progress” in their name.

When contacted by local media about the true scope of their stake in Clark County, representatives for Pretium refrained from giving an exact number of the homes it owns, but claimed that it is fewer than 4,500.

U.S. Rep. Steven Horsford (D-NEV) said that corporate and Wall Street-backed investors have snatched up thousands of homes in both Southern Nevada and throughout the nation – mainly targeting starter homes and low-income communities – thereby reducing overall affordable stock and making the dream of homeownership harder for average people to obtain.

Studies indicate that, by the end of 2023, approximately 15 percent of Clark County’s housing stock – and nearly 25 percent in North Las Vegas – was owned by investors.

These predatory practices led by these Wall Street-backed hedge funds are acquiring more properties, pricing out Nevadans and their ability to own their own home,” Horsford said.
