Those two names are appearing together a lot nowadays here in Southern Nevada. And why not. They both give you the upbeat feeling that there is exceptional entertainment involved. The first one offers a whole array of the good time, in many shapes and forms, for all sorts of wallet sizes, morning, day, afternoon and night. The latter has it with music, with the good old rock and roll from a few moons ago. It can still hold its own no matter who you throw against it. Simply, it doesn't get any better than that. Just this week the Mirage celebrated the first anniversary of the show Love, a production by Cirque du Soleil that brings us how the Beatles a few decades ago managed to skillfully generate creative musical energy and total audience excitement.

 It's encouraging to see that Washington is taking steps, still kind of small but steps anyway, to fund research on how to increase efficiency in our houses. The home building industry is already spending money on it and now the federal government is joining in. The two-prong approach will add more muscle to the effort and ultimately benefit everyone. The U.S. Department of Energy just announced that it'll have up to $40 million available to support research, development and deployment of technologies that will eventually cut new home energy consumption by 30-90%. What exactly is the research zeroing in on? The goal is pretty clear from what I gather. It aims to bring new energy efficient products to the real estate market, enhance builder productivity, decrease construction time, come ... 06/29/2007

For several months the Las Vegas real estate market has been at a virtual crawl.  There are currently 25,000+ single-family residences for sale, 38,000+ listings if you want to count commercial and land and everything in between.  I have several listings, fairly priced (for a stabilized and sometimes declining market) and in good conditions and locations.  We've had MANY showings on these listings and lots of positive feedback when I call showing REALTORS® for feedback.  But, NO offers.  I've talked to many other local REALTORS® who have the same problem. Houses ARE selling but it's taking much longer than the 8 to 10 hour listing periods of just a couple years ago. In 2004 the average length of time on the market was about 7-10 days, now it's 90+ days  (which is really more average and... 06/28/2007

 It is if you look at the report that the National Association of Home Builders, or NAHB, and Wells Fargo just published. The study took into account the median family income and the median sales price of a sample metro area during the first quarter of 2007 and then arrived at an affordability index. According to its findings, Las Vegas ranks 186 with only 18.9% of households able to purchase a median-priced home. That is a worrisome number.I don't know what the index was before the residential real estate boom started early this decade, but it must've been much higher than the above figure. Those days you could buy a nice 3-bedroom house for $140,000, while today the same home will cost double that. The other component in the index is the median income and all I can say is that it cert... 06/28/2007
