REO Financing Profile for Las Vegas Area

REO Financing Profile for Las Vegas Area

Cash is the obvious dominator with overall Las Vegas Area REO Purchases. Cash not only dominates but CRUSHES financed purchases under $75000. The primary reason is the stuff priced under $75000 is unhabitable and ineligible for financing or is condo ineligible for financing.

Asset managers for REO also may choose cash offers that may be lower than financed simply because financed offers have exceeded their appraised price on the property or because there are less contingencies and they can close quicker (which takes the asset - or liability - off of their books quicker.)

Condo financing is currently a challenge in the Las Vegas Area. Lenders want to see low investor concentration, low HOA deliquencies and no construction defect or other litigation against HOA or community. To determine if a condo is eligible for financing, a condo certification may be ordered from the HOA (this does cost money) and have it run by an underwriter.

Whether you are all cash or a financed buyer, you can search Las Vegas Area (Henderson & North Las Vegas too) homes right here for free and no obligation!

Renee - Cash still seems to be winning the battles in Las Vegas real estate, and unless the regulations on Mortgages change, I don't see anything changing in the near future. Hopefully our next administation will remove some of the dumb restrictions and requirements for loans. With 280,000 government workers now writing regulations, I expect things to get worse before they get better.

Nice market report Renee, looks like cash is still king in Las Vegas real estate.

Renee, cash buyers ARE ruling in some markets, particularly the lower end markets, as your graphs demonstrate.  Is that a high investor concentration in your Las Vegas real estate market or is that a lot of second homeowners?  I sure wish we had a way of tracking THAT statistic as I think it would be interesting.

Those are some interesting statistics.  I was not expecting cash to be so much higher than everything else.  Great idea for a report.

Thank you everyone for your comments!

Juli - that would be VERY interesting.  I would say half of the cash number is investors and the other half is either owner occupants or second homeowners!
