Top Las Vegas real estate agent Leslie Hoke from Las Vegas Homes By Leslie reports nationwide rent increase
Las Vegas, NV, United States – April 23, 2015 /MarketersMedia/ —
Las Vegas real estate website and blog Las Vegas Homes By Leslie is reporting via their blog that for 2014, renters spent $20 billion more in rent compared to 2013. According to the site’s owner, Las Vegas realtor Leslie Hoke, “That is a lot of money that could have been used to build equity in a home.”
Hoke went on to say, “I understand not everyone is in the position to purchase a home in Las Vegas, nor should they right at this moment, but rent prices are soaring which makes home ownership the more affordable option.”
“The data shows rent prices in Las Vegas have increased by 5%, which spread out over a year means a 10% increase. That far outpaces most people’s wage increases,” said Hoke.
“Furthermore, the most recent data released by Greater Las Vegas Association of Realtors revealed the average priced condominium/townhome in Las Vegas is $105,000. At that price, with a 3.97% interest rate over 30 years, the mortgage payment would be about $500. The average rent price in Las Vegas in December 2014 was $1013,” Hoke said.
