Southwest Las Vegas Real Estate Market Report - REOs, Short Sales and Regular Sales - November 2011
In my previous post we examined sales price, volume, and financing trends in the southwest Las Vegas real estate market. Now we'll focus on the parts of that market -- REOs (bank owned homes), short sales, and regular sales.
Generally, we have only 2.6 months of southwest Las Vegas real estate inventory. Looking closer we see that each type of listing has a distinct market. Here are the current figures for southwest Las Vegas REOs, southwest Las Vegas short sales, and 'regular' southwest Las Vegas home sales.
Absorption is the number of months it would take to sell the available inventory at current sales rates. (Available Inventory/November Sales = Absorption Rate). There are just four weeks of REO inventory, but more than 3 1/2 months of short sales.
Distressed properties (REOs and short sales) represent 62% of the available inventory ...
... and make up 90% of the current escrows.
