The Las Vegas real estate market has been a non-stop adventure this summer. Homes and condo prices have skyrocketed to highs unlike anything we've ever seen.

We're seeing new builder homes, such as the new "Raider's Stadium" clone mansion by owner Mark Davis; and the record $32.5 million mansion for sale in Henderson's Ascaya community. In addition, rental prices are creeping out of reach for many, with a shortage of new inventory. Help is on the way, with several new rental developments in the works.

Cash home sale

Get caught up on what's new and happening in the Las Vegas real estate market this June. 

Cash Home Sales on the Rise

It seems that cash speaks the loudest when it comes to buying Las Vegas Real estate this year. In May 2021, 31% of sold homes were purchased with cash, an increase of 15% from May 2020. Cash offers are often preferred by sellers over a buyer using financing. Sadly, this practice is putting a strain on new and middle-class home buyers who may have pre-approved loans and are ready to purchase. A good percentage of the cash buyers are coming from out of state, especially California.
