Hi everyone,

What’s trending in the housing market here in Las Vegas?  Lots!!  Prices are rising-up, up and away.  The Median priced re-sale home is around $350k .

Every section of the Las Vegas Valley has New Homes under construction.  Depending on your likings there are homes around $150k usually condo and townhomes, then the skies the limit, you name it you can upgrade it in a new home in Summerlin, Henderson, North Las Vegas, the SW and NW.  Typically if you’re buying a new home most people send an average of $70k in upgrades at a home priced around $500k.  Which could include, flooring, cabinets, countertops, elevation of the home, extensions, lighting and electrical upgrades and so much more.  It’s all about personal taste and money when it comes to upgrading a new home.

There’s lots of buzz about the Raiders coming to Las Vegas.  Many bars/food establishments have claimed themselves as “Raiders bars”, I spent a lot of time downtown Las Vegas this weekend and already some places have started advertising for game day.  As more information about these bars pop up I’ll inform  you via this blog.

Vegas Golden Knights are always trending because they have done so much for the city.  During the horrible event on Oct. 1 2017 the Golden Knights took charge and showed the community how much respect they have for the victims, their families and the whole community in general.  So much love and gratitude shined through a really rough time here. The one year anniversary of Oct. 1st is coming soon.  there are many events planned for all people to come together to support one another.  I am sure the VGK will be a part of it all.

Weed, yes, we have legalized marijuana.  Many travelers arrive in Las Vegas and head straight to a dispensary.  Some people think Disney Land is the happiest place in the world, others believe Las Vegas is, Las Vegas is by far a big adult playground.

TRENDS IN LAS VEGAS

Penny has been helping buyers and sellers in Las Vegas, Summerlin, Green Valley, the SW and NW areas of the Las Vegas Valley for over 20 years.  She’s current on trends in Real Estate.

Hi everyone,

Yes, you heard me right.  If you really want to become familiar with your potential new home and communtiy I highly recommend checking out the neighborhood many times.  Morning, noon, night and in the middle of the night.  To some people that may sound extreme, but, really is it?  You’re going to be living there for a number of years and yes, things change within neighborhoods.  Houses get sold, people get pets, people become landlords instead of living in the dwelling.  People die, get divorced, have more kids, maybe a business or housing community develops after you move in.

I always recommend to my buyers to check on the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police  Departments website, http://www.lvmpd.com  and  go to a sex offender site Watchdog.com.  There are many ways to look into what’s really going on within the community.  And, of course one of my favorite ways to find out more about the neighborhood is to talk with the neighbors.  Most people are more than willing to talk with us about their community.

Now, if you’re buying a New home, then that’s a completely different situation as far as talking with the neighbors, what I love about new communities is that everyone is new to the area.  You all become neighbors at the same time.  You can build your community into a community where people know one another and it’s exciting to have new neighbors and a new home.

Whatever your Real Estate needs maybe I can help.  I’ve been enjoying help buyers and sellers for over 16 years full time here in Southern Nevada and Did I mention I have the most amazing clients.  Take care of yourself and please do give me a call, text or email whichever works out best for you.
