The Hard Stats for 2017 Las Vegas Real Estate

Posted by Las Vegas Homes By Leslie on Tuesday, February 6th, 2018 at 1:13pm.

2017 was an interesting year for real estate in Las Vegas. The market for condos, townhomes and single-family homes saw sizable increases in number of sales, prices and total dollar volume sold. The number of days properties remained on the market dropped drastically, 50% for condos and 37% for houses. So why weren't people jumping at selling their homes? Not sure, but due to the lack of sellers, the months of on-hand inventory dropped substantially as well. 

What can we learn from this? Well, if you're considering selling - prices are up, listing times are down, and selection of pre-owned homes is sparse. In otherwords - what are you waiting for!!!

For home buyers - if you're not seeing what you want due to lack of inventory, consider buying a new construction home. There is a huge range of pricing, neighborhood selection, and floorplans to choose from, by every major builder in the area. There are some exciting new Las Vegas luxury developments, new active adult communities in Summerlin, and CalAtlantic Homes is killing it with their popular rooftop decks.

Here are the cold, hard stats for the 2017 Las Vegas real estate :
