It makes a heart warm to see all those "plus signs" in our Las Vegas real estate reports for July 2020. This was a record month, especially for home sales. But what really gets me excited is that people are starting to resume their lives and getting back to a sense of normalcy. We're seeing old habits emerge such as relocating to a new home before kids start school. First time buyers have decided it's worth the risk to buy now and take advantage of the amazing interest rates. It's not a perfect world yet, but we're adapting.

Admittedly, I was somewhat apprehensive pulling the stats together for the June 2020 report on Las Vegas real estate sales. But, after running the numbers, I've got every reason to be optimistic. Although sales haven't reached 2019 heights, sales for both single-family homes and condos have increased since May, and prices are also on the rise. Sellers are getting over 98% of their asking price and homes are selling quicker than ever, after an average of just 38 days on the market.

What Neighborhoods are Selling in Las Vegas & How Much

These may be some of the hardest times the Las Vegas real estate market has seen in decades, but contrary to popular belief, the market during the COVID-19 crisis has not ground to a halt. Folks still have homes to sell, and according to the stats from the last 60 days (late March to May/20), people are still buying those homes.

These are unusual times, for certain, but the industry has adapted. Now, we rely on technology more than ever to advertise Las Vegas homes for sale and provide virtual or private tours in place of open houses. Even the new construction industry is featuring virtual tours of their model homes.
