This Las Vegas Market Report usually just stays on my Website but the News on Las Vegas Home Inventory Trends is Just too Juicy to NOT SHARE w/ Active Rain!

Las Vegas Real Estate Market Trends for November 2010:

I am happy to report that Las Vegas home inventory increases over the last several months has slowed in December.  I did predict – back in May of 2010 (this year) that Las Vegas Area would be a stable to buyer’s market by November or December.

I am happy to report that I am wrong!  We are still a seller’s market but almost a stable market.  Our absorption rate is “hanging in there” at 4.6 months of inventory (5 months makes it a stable market, 7 months makes it a buyer’s market!)

This is due to smaller inventory increases than previous months.  Inventory only increased +66 units throughout the Las Vegas Valley

The Las Vegas REO (foreclosures, bank owned) sector remains a strong seller’s market at 2.2 months of inventory & the Las Vegas Short Sale sector turned from stable territory to a buyer’s market with 8.2 month’s of inventory.

Las Vegas Home Sales were high for November.  Traditionally sales should dip in November but we saw an increase of +144 units.

Las Vegas Home Pendings remain high due to short sales and the challenges it takes to close a Las Vegas Short Sale.

The rest of my November 2010 Las Vegas Market Reports for specific sectors of the Las Vegas Real Estate Marketwill be up within the next several days on these pages:

That's quite a comprehensive look at LV and vicinity Renee.  Sorry that your prediction was slightly off base but one out of 1,000,000,000 is pretty darn good.  The Shack Diva rules!

Renee - This is a really well done market report for Las Vegas that will help to really inform the consumers.  We've also been moving from a sellers' market to a more balanced market over the last few months.

I like the headline, hopefully closings will improve and the inventory will decrease. In the end real estate will appreciate, and the bull will run again. I'm ezpecting a 4 year hot market starting in march of 2011. How about that for a prediction.
