Las Vegas Real Estate Market Update: Existing Home Sales Climb in April



Share

Las Vegas, NV - Although median prices fell by single-digit percentages and appear to have stabilized at the lower end of the market, sales of Las Vegas luxury  homes climbed significantly in April, according to Home Builders Research.

 

During the month, the sales of existing-home were up 2 percent a year ago to 3,724. Re-sales rose 15.3 percent to 13,846 closings for the first quarter of 2010.

 

Dennis Smith, Home Builders Research President, said that prices have remained the same in the past year. The median resale price dropped to $128,000 in April, down $2,000, or 1.6 percent, from the previous year.

 

With 61 high-rise closings at CityCenter, the new-home sales were up to 471 closings last month and higher than the 343 a year ago. New-home sales are up 1 percent at 1,510 for the year.

 

While median new-home price dropped 5.9 percent to $203,085, this year's is higher than $12,565 last year.

Las Vegas Real Estate Market Update - March



Share

Las Vegas home sales were up to 32.8 percent in March over February, and were up 5 percent over 2009 levels.

 

Meanwhile, the inventory of Las Vegas home for sale dropped 9.9 percent from the previous year to 20,548. Even median home price declined 8.7 percent to $136,000.

 

Short sales increased 25 percent of Las Vegas home sales from 8 percent last year. Meanwhile, foreclosures dropped 50 percent from about 80 percent of sales. The Home Affordable Foreclosure Alternative (HAFA) program which offers homeowners an incentive for completing a short sale or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure could go a long way toward increasing short sales in Las Vegas, according to real estate industry experts.

 

The median home price was on the rise by 0.2 percent in March from the previous Month. If the number of short-sale continues to rise, the increase of the median home price will continue.

 

Sales of Las Vegas condos and townhomes were 34.8 higher than 2009 levels, with 3.3 percent dropped in the median price.

 

For Single Family homes, overall real estate transactions last month significantly increased 3.4 percent from the previous year to $553.3 million. Even condo and townhome sales climbed 38.1 percent to $75.7 million.

 

Buyers are rushing to find their own Las Vegas homes before tax credits expire at the end of April because most of them believe that Southern Nevada home prices will likely increase in the coming months. This creates a perfect storm which keeps Las Vegas realtors busy, and buyers and sellers happy.

 

There were definitely a great improvements in the Las Vegas real estate overall activity generated by the tax credit, both buying and selling.

Las Vegas Homeowners: Foreclosure Updates



Share

The number of foreclosures in the United States residential state may be slowing, but it is not over according to the experts.

 

The latest figures shows that the number of foreclosure filings dropped 2 percent in February but they are still 6 percent high from a year earlier - the smallest annual increase in four years.

 

More than 308,000 homes or one in every 418 homes received foreclosure filings in February. These include default notices, scheduled auctions and bank repossessions.

The Nevada foreclosure rates were down 7 percent from January and higher than 30 percent last year. Utah, Idaho, Illinois, Georgia and Maryland rounded out the top ten.

 

Las Vegas is one of the metropolitan areas which have the highest foreclosure rate with one in every 90 homes foreclosure filings. However, foreclosure here decreased 9 percent from the previous month.


The status of foreclosure now is not really the evidence that hundreds of thousands of homeowners are in crisis and at risk, but rather this is a clear proof that the federal government programs are in effect in slowing down the growth rates of foreclosures activity in the country.
