The Las Vegas Valley (includes Henderson & North Las Vegas) has seen some major market stabilization in the last year! Absorption for December 2008 is a healthy 8.6 months of inventory (compare it to 22.5 months inventory in Nov/Dec 2007!) Be warned, the market as a whole is considered a "neutral market" ~ not a buyer's market, not a seller's market. Some micro-markets (ie,Foreclosures Bank Owned, REO) are extreme seller's markets where there is no mercy to the buyers, multiple offers are the norm!
