Las Vegas doesn’t have the seasonality changes that affect some markets. Spring is certainly the most popular time to buy and sell a house in Las Vegas.
It’s always a good time to sell in Las Vegas when you consider months, yet times, when inventory is lower, can entice more buyers.

Winter has the least amount of listings and while buyers tend to be in shorter supply, those that are shopping are generally serious buyers. And homes look amazing during the holidays in Las Vegas.

Some real estate experts are predicting a potential housing market crash in 2020 due to politics and the potential of rising interest rates. Realtor.com predicts a decline in home sales of as much as 11% and a decline in home values overall.
