Whether you are a first time home buyer, seller,  or investor knowing the current Las Vegas housing market statistics will help you with your real estate transaction. Prices have bounced back since our market bottomed out at a median sales price of $118,000 in 2012 however they are still well below the height of the market in 2006 of $315,000.  The Las Vegas Valley is no longer in a distressed property driven market. Since we have experienced a few years of appreciation, homes that were once under water are now able to sell without it being a short sale transaction. (Short sale is when the homeowner owes the bank more than the market value. The homeowner with the help of a real estate agent negotiates with the bank to take what the market value is as a full payoff.) Don’t get me wrong we still have foreclosures, short sales and auction properties that is just not the majority of our market at this time.

Distressed Property Statistics

The Las Vegas Valley housing market is still experiencing short sales, REO’s and auction sales. They have an impact on the market however not as much as in years past. A Notice of Default is the first step to the foreclosure process. The Notice of Sale is what sets the date for the bank auction and the homeowners final notice of the foreclosure. After the filing of the Notice of Sale there are certain circumstances that they can be cancelled. Either there was a successful loan modification or short sale, a filing error or a legal requirement to re-file the notice.

Year over Year Statistics:

• Notice of Default filings were up 38.4%
• Notice of Sale filings were up 41.8%
• Cancellation of Notice of Sale went down 26.6%
• Properties going back to the bank went down 18.2%
• Total number of properties owned by the bank went down 12.9%

The Las Vegas market has natural up and down cycles. As with most markets our market slows down in the winter months from November to January. Once the holidays are over we see a natural jump in listings. Our high selling cycle is from April to August. During this time we experience families relocating or moving up during summer break, snowbirds selling while they are not in the properties, and other sellers just taking advantage of the market.

Buyers and Sellers

What impact does the current market have on buyers and sellers? With more inventory buyers have more homes to choose from and more time to make a decision. Gone are the days of the multiple offers by investors. With our market being a stable market homes are not selling for over list price however as the statistics show homes are selling at an average rate of 98.1%  of the list price. Please keep in mind there are always exceptions to these statistics. In certain zip codes that are more sought after or for a home in great condition we see the market moving faster. For sellers the current market equates to more attention to the details. If you want to sell your house for top dollar and fast knowing the current market to price it right is key. With the steady appreciation the Las Vegas housing market has experienced the last 3 years the sellers market hasn’t completely gone away. However because buyers have lots of options, staging your property and making small repairs to make it standout is necessary.

With the interest rates still low and many buyers re-entering the market after a short sale or foreclosure the 2015 selling cycle is just getting started.
