Las Vegas Realtor Reports Summer Home Prices

Las Vegas Homes By Leslie reports Las Vegas home prices are staying steady.

August 31, 2015 /MM-prReach/ —

Las Vegas realtor Leslie Hoke from Las Vegas Homes By Leslie is reporting the summer housing statistics for the southern Nevada real estate market. According to Hoke’s latest Blog post, the market is steady, but inventory is a little tight, indicating a seller’s market.

“Median sale prices have increased just over 8% the last 12 months. It’s a good rate of growth, but it is outpacing inflation and most peoples’ wage increases. Right now, the median sale price is $211,250, which is very affordable for a major market like Las Vegas,” Las Vegas Realtor Hoke said.

“Las Vegas has come along way since the turbulent market a few years ago. It’s hard to believe that not too long ago median prices were well over $350,000 before the bottom fell out,” said Hoke.

“One minor issue is the tight inventory. The estimate says there is three months worth of supply, which is half of what it should be. It’s not a major source of worry, it just means supply isn’t keeping pace with demand, which means we’re in a sellers market,” Hoke said.

“In a seller’s market, buyers need to make sure they’re not overpaying. Right now, a lot of sellers are asking too much for their homes, which is causing them to sit on the market for too long. About 60% of homes selling in Las Vegas in 60 days or less. Sellers need to understand that a competitive price often leads to multiple bids and higher sales prices. When a home is priced too high, it sits with no offers,” said Hoke.
