Since I have been attracting alot of Canadians to my Las Vegas Real Estate links, the number 1 question I get in my first discussion is "Do you have loans available for Canadian Buyers in Las Vegas?"

The down payment would be 35%. 2. If a Canadian Citizen has business dealings in Las Vegas, they may be able to establish permanent residency or there are

baby boomers: Looking for 2011 to be a whole lot better in the Las Vegas Valley. - 12/07/10 01:46 PM
It sure is interesting what mid-term elections can do to begin to change your outlook on life here in the good old USA. A lot of political items need to be settled before the first of the year, but I'm keeping the faith that all will go in the right direction by then. But I do have one question: "If the Bush Tax Cuts aren't extended or compromised on by the end of 2010, do we change the name to the Obama Tax Increase beginning to 2011?" Please send your feedback and encouragement to your United States Senator and/or your United States Congressman. Now,

Dear Reader, You may remember that the last blog I posted was after I thought I had a client scheduled for October 24, but it was really supposed to be the 31st and I wondered if this ever happened to you. There must have been something in my subject line to trigger opening because that e-mail has been opened and clicked more than any of the others I have sent. In fact, my readership numbers have been steadily increasing for the past year and I want to THANK all of you who read. My goal is to organize information about the

baby boomers: Is the Poster Child for the Busted Housing Market coming Back to Life? - 09/12/10 09:58 AM
Is the Poster Child for the Busted Housing Market coming Back to Life? (Let's look at the Big Picture!) I'm passing along 2 articles today. The first one was published in the Las Vegas Review Journal last week by Lew Sichelman. The Housing Scene: Average Home Prices Across Dip, Las Vegas Up Slightly As I have said in previous letters, Las Vegas, now considered to be a large market by the Federal Housing Finance Agency, is beginning to see prices move up slightly (year over year) in homes valued from $100 to $249,000. Homes that are priced from $250,000 to

baby boomers: Finally! Some Clarity to the Situation in the Las Vegas Valley - 08/22/10 06:59 PM
Finally! Some clarity to the situation! I'm forwarding a link to a very well written article, by Frank Geary, published in today's Las Vegas Review Journal. The article is entitled: IS THE HOMEOWNER HOME?: Who's living there? Owner-occupied houses decline in Clark County The article does a really good job of telling us what's transpired during the past 6 years in this market, where we are today and, hopefully, where we are headed. But, as usual, I can't help myself and have some comments, on the article, that I would like to share from the trenches because, Franks right, Foreclosures

Summerlin Las Vegas News to Share I have a Las Vegas Sun article, authored by Steve Green that I would like to share if you have not seen it yet. Click here-à Land Plans Signal Growth in Summerlin The good news is that it appears that Summerlin is headed for a growth spurt that many of us who work and live here have been waiting for.

baby boomers: "Make Sure You See What's Inside The Book" - 06/16/09 03:37 PM
"My whole thing is don't judge a book by its cover." Cindy Margolis I know, I know. You're not supposed to make snap judgments based on first appearances. That includes choosing dream homes by just driving by. With all my experience, I've made a commitment to delivering RE/MAX Premier Service here in Las Vegas. That means I'm willing to use all my resources to search high and low for the "Just Right" properties to help newly relocated people find their home fast or I work with investors to find properties that will provide a good ROI for an individual or group.
