Las Vegas Area Homes for Sale

Cash REMAINS KING in the Las Vegas Area Real Estate Market!!! It is important for every buyer in the Las Vegas Area Real Estate Market to understand who their buyer competition is in this currently competitive seller's market LV is enjoying! It is important to understand how a seller looks at each financing type:

Cash Offers: Generally have less contingencies and quicker close times. A cash offer may be accepted even if it is lower than a financed offer.

Conventional Financing: Less strict with lender required repairs but larger down payments and more strict credit guidelines.

FHA/VA Financing: Requires more scrutiny with lender required repairs via appraisal. In general these take longer to underwrite and close so a cash or conventional offer looks more enticing to the seller. FHA Requires the deed to be seasoned for several months so some flips bought at trustee's sales are generally out as options when competing with multiple offers!

Other: Less common and creative financing types such as Lease Options, OWC (Owner Will Carry), etc. The "other" category INCLUDES auction terms!!

I totally agree that cash is king, in a  competitive market the cash offer is hard to pass up compared to a financing one, very good advice to understand who your competition is when trying to purchase in a sellers market.

Broker Burrows, ALERT, Broker Burrows, ALERT!  Where is the cash going? That's the biggest drop I've seen since you started reporting these stats.  Should I be nervous?

Thanks all for stopping by!

Kevin - actually the cash buyers are retreating a bit because of prices increases.  It has only dropped 5% and remains steady at 55% in this month's report :)  Good observation!
