Las Vegas Real Estate Market Report – September 2018

Here’s a look at the Las Vegas Real Estate Market for September 2018. According to a report released on September 7th by the Greater Las Vegas Association of REALTORS® (GLVAR), the current low inventory numbers should improve as we move into the end of the year and beginning of next year. Let’s take a closer look at the Las Vegas market trends.

The median price for a townhome or condo in Las Vegas for August was $169,950, which shows an increase from the $166,000 of last month. The current median price range shows an increase of 23.8 percent from this time last year. At the end of August, there were 1,182 properties on the market without an offer. The current number of unsold condos shows an increase of 73.4 percent from August of 2017.

At the end of the month, there were 5,818 single-family homes listed with no offer. That shows a decrease of 12.8 percent from this time last year. There’s less than 2-months supply of inventory on the market. In order for the market to be considered balanced, there needs to be a 6 month supply of inventory.

There continue to be fewer distressed sales and short sales. Just 2.5 percent of all homes sales in Las Vegas were short sales or foreclosures in August. This number is down from the 6.1 percent from this time last year.

Cash sales made up 24.8 percent of all sales in the area. This percentage shows a drop from last year’s 25.8 percent. Cash buyers are still showing that they are a force in the buyers market, but they aren’t as prominent as they were in 2013 when the number peaked at 59.5 percent.
