investment: Why it's Time to buy in Las Vegas. - 08/21/07 05:46 PM
The GLVAR (Greater Las Vegas Association of Realtors) came up with some great points on why now is a great time to buy in Las Vegas.
Mortgage interest rates remain at historically low levels, effectively lowering the cost of buying a home. It is not clear when interest rates will begin to rise. However, economists and other experts generally agree that rates are unlikely to fall significantly in the near future.
Southern Nevada's economy remains stronger than most metropolitan areas, with steady job and population growth. According to Las Vegas Perspective, Clark County added more than 96,000 new residents in 2006. This bodes … (1 comments)

investment: Update on Sunday Hudson and Marshall Auction - 08/06/07 11:48 AM
If you weren't at the Las Vegas Auction on Sunday, August 5th, you missed out on an excellent real estate experience.
I got to the event and noticed that tons of cars were pulling in and that valet was full even @ 11:30 on a Sunday. As I walked in to the event I was talking with the lady next to me as I saw property printouts in her hand. We got to the registration tables and and waited about 2-3 minutes to sign in and get our "paddles". After that we sat and talked, looking over comps I had brought. She … (0 comments)

investment: Foreclosure Auction - 08/02/07 10:25 AM
Man have I been busy. Last Saturday and Sunday I sat at an open house for a home that was getting ready to go to auction this Sunday (August 5th).
There are going to be about 90 homes up for auction this Sunday, all of which are bank owned. The auction company is Hudson and Marshall.
I've never looked at auctions before because I have been under the predjudice that they are not a good deal, agents don't get paid, the process leans in favor of only the seller, etc. Sort of like going to court house steps.
The thing I have found out … (0 comments)

investment: Foreclosure Open House Number 2 - 07/06/07 05:33 PM
I finally recorded another video podcast from one of the foreclosure, bank owned open houses that I do. This one, unlike the last one, is in need of some repair. SERIOUS REPAIR. I think the previous occupants owned stock in a tobacco company as it smells like they smoked about 7 packs an hour.
This house is located in Henderson off of Sunset and Eiger. It is a townhome with 1200 sq ft, 2 bedrooms upstairs each with their own bath, loft, 1/2 bath downstairs and a decent sized kitchen considering the sq ft. while still leaving a good sized living room … (0 comments)
