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!

Yes, the real estate market is down. But the very best
properties -- with the best locations and views -- in
internationally desirable markets continue to sell. This is one of
those properties -- 1500 MacDonald Ranch Drive in the MacDonald

Las Vegas is a lively international destination, recognized
around the world as a center for a dynamic mix of business and
entertainment. High level executives or business moguls desiring an
exclusive residence for their visits to Las Vegas need not look
further. The elevation chosen for the site of this stunning
Asian-fusion contemporary estate along with the extensive use of
glass in its design offer spectacular, unobstructed views of the
entire Las Vegas Valley, day or night. The clean, uncluttered
elegance of this custom designed, private "resort" will tempt you
to make a bid.
Entertain your Guests and Clients in Style
For those special people you wish to provide a truly memorable
experience during their visit to Vegas, this MacDonald Highlands
home comes completely furnished. Everything featured in the images
showcasing this estate's interior is included, making it an
immediate destination for your guests. All they need to bring is a
tooth brush.
Your guests will also appreciate the well thought out design of
the interior and furnishings. The use of natural materials such as
water, stone and wood in conjunction with cool, muted colors to
moderate the arid desert climate were implemented to create the
Asian fusion concept throughout. The clever blending of the rougher
textures of natural materials with contemporary highly reflective
surfaces such as polished granite, stainless steel and glass help
to create the interior design as well. In addition, all showers use
glass tile with colored accents to match the theme of the en suite
guest rooms. Your guests will relish the different themed guest
rooms to choose from upon each visit.
Aside from the exquisitely designed furnishings and interior,
your clients and guests will find pleasure and comfort in the
several amenities available. Some highlights include:
- Glass, 8-foot long double-sided "in wall" fireplace between the
formal entry foyer and the dining room.
- Pergola-covered private outdoor sitting area accessible from
the private office and the guest casita.
- A theater which seats 15 with full granite-topped service bar
at rear including fridge with ice maker, sink, and wine
chiller.
- Game room featuring a full bar, Vinotek, and tournament sized
Brunswick table. Multiple flat screen televisions -- one large and
three smaller screens for viewing on three walls
- Indoor and outdoor water features including sleek and
breathtaking swimming pool.
- Endless exotic wood built-ins, pro-grade appliances and
state-of-the-art A/V throughout.
Rejuvenate your Spirit and Business
The serene and beautiful design of this estate, along with its
ready-to-go amenities will enable you to immediately focus all your
energy and time on your personal or business needs for each stay.
The upper level of this "palace" is accessible off the street, yet
the site is secluded and private, keeping the excitement of the Las
Vegas Strip in your eyes' reach with your breathtaking views, but
maintaining the reserve you will need to truly unwind and conduct
business. The lower level of is down the mountainside, accentuating
the secluded location of this property.
The Master Bedroom offers all the luxuries your spirit desires:
exterior glass walls which retract for easy access to the outdoor
deck with gas firepit and television built into a stone column just
outside the master suite, and a master bath which includes radiant
heat coils in the floor and shower areas for soothing comfort.
The Kitchen is fully equipped for you to use or for your staff
to employ, with stainless steel professional grade Viking ovens and
convection cooktop, twin SubZero refrigerators, Miele dishwashers,
washer/dryer sets and a coffee center. The kitchen also features a
suspended wood ceiling "grid," a large island with bar seating, and
a unique corner unit backlit and custom built with Japanese rice
paper embedded in glass.
Because materials and colors prevalent in Asian-inspired design
so closely reflect nature, they are generally felt to be as
comfortable and calming to live with as they are pleasing to the
eye. The feeling of serene and pleasing calm that radiates
throughout this amazing estate is waiting for a deserving owner who
can bring it to life.
This home is offered at $7,000,000. For more information or

ROBERT (Vegas Bob) SWETZ (REALTY ONE GROUP - LAS VEGAS, NEVADA 702.443.7156 )

What would you like to purchase in the Entertainment
Capital of the World?
I just invited Michael Yagi one of my preferred lenders to
Active Rain yesterday and he can set you up with any type of loan
your interested in.
Convertional, FHA, Non Convetional, Construction and
Commercial.
Here is Michael's first posted blog to any network and I
would like everyone to welcome Michael to Active Rain. Below his
blog I have left his contact numbers if anyone is interested in
getting financed to purchase in the Entertainment Capital of the
World - Las Vegas - Nevada
Hi my name is Michael Yagi and I
just joined Active Rain, this is my first blog
Hi there-
My good friend Robert Swetz invited me to join you guys.
I'm excited to be a part of your group and look forward to creating
new business relationships.
Just to tell you a little bit about myself, I am originally from
the Bay Area and ended up down in Southern California to attend
CSULB where I graduated with a BS in Finance in 1993. I
stayed down there until 2000 and then moved out here to Las
Vegas.
I thought I was going to become a stock broker after I graduated
from Long Beach but I happened to interview with a mortgage company
and landed a job as a loan officer! If you remember we were
in the middle of a recession in the 1990's and no one had any
equity in their homes (sound familiar?) so I ended up leaving the
industry for 8 years and came back to it when I moved out to Las
Vegas.
I was with Greystone Financial for minute and then I moved to
Prime Cap Financial (where I met my wife) and now I am with Trusted
Home Lending. We are doing some fantastic things here
and have a wonderful home searching tool called the Home Buyers
Scouting Report. It's a free service we offer to all of our
clients and business partners. As a realtor, if you haven't
seen it, please call us and we will set up a time for you to take a
look at it. We've had the service for about 7 months now
and are closing 2-3 extra deals on top of our normal
business. In this market, I don't know who couldn't
use some more business?
Looking forward to hearing from you guys! Take care and
God Bless.
Michael

Mitchell Bobrow (Rothwell Gornt Real Estate)
Mitchell Bobrow a Las
Vegas Real Estate agent just completed the most impressive custom
home in Macdonald Highlands. Bobrow teamed up with Signature
architect Rick Ryniak to build the most unique custom home in the
Vegas Valley. The style of the Bobrow Residence appropriately named
"Enter the Dragon" is a unique blend of Pacific-Asian forms
with a flavor of Mediterranean detailing. Ryniak "bends"
these shapes and forms in a way that are responsive to the
site and maximizes the views in multiple directions from every
room. This also creates a
home that wraps itself, creating unexpected
private alcoves and view corridors. These "in-and-outs" of
form result in exciting and unexpected roof shapes that become
sculptural yet integral with the overall design. The home features
two Master bedrooms that open to the Las Vegas strip, three guest
bedrooms, caretakers quarters, caterers kitchen, wine cellar, cigar
lounge, guest house and a 14 car garage. All the bells and whistles
such as a state of the art digital theater room, whole house sound
with over 100 speakers, 17 cameras that can be viewed from the
internet, Asian meditation garden, commercial gym with message room
and salon. The swimming pool has a hidden lap lane and a natural
rock grotto spa for 18 guests. Ryniak has done homes for Kelsey
Grammer, Carlos Santana and Jim Furyk to name a few. The 20,000
square foot estate is on the most exclusive street in Las Vegas at
the famous DragonRidge Golf course. A home recently sold for $1000
a foot just two doors away. Bobrow plans on starting two more
extreme custom homes within the next 90 days. Mitchell Bobrow is
currently opening offices to consult others building high end
custom homes. This will be Bobrow's private residence.
