Relocating to a new neighborhood can be a stressful time. There are several things to consider including school systems, local amenities, crime levels, tax rates and distance to employment. The following is some important Las Vegas Home Buyer Relocation Advice.

School Systems and Las Vegas Real Estate Values

The ranking of a school system is valuable for both families with school-age children and homeowners without. A good school system has a positive impact on real estate prices, as well as property incline in value. You can research school systems before your search for a home. Online resources are also helpful. A site for school rankings is GreatSchools.org.

Local Amenities

The availability of recreational facilities, shopping, and other features are important to know and may affect the quality of living. Sites such as Yelp.com provide the proximity of different facilities, grocery stores, medical facilities, restaurants, and financial institutions relative to a specific address. Be sure to develop a list of your most needed amenities and pass on that information to your real estate representative if it is a critical factor in your neighborhood selection.

Crime Rates in Las Vegas

Crime statistics in a neighborhood can alter home values, in addition to the overall the quality of the community. Ask the local police department for details or check crime on the internet at websites such as CrimeReports.com. Some mobile phones also have applications for evaluating crime statistics.

Las Vegas Real Estate Taxes

Real Estate tax rates may differ greatly from one community to another and significantly impact recurring mortgage payments. Property tax records are public information and are often listed online, at municipal offices, or from a local real estate broker or Mortgage Broker. When considering prices in an area, be sure to calculate estimates for both mortgage payments and property taxes.

Travel Distance to Employment

The distance to major roadways may affect not only commuting time but also real estate values. A home near to highways has its pluses and minuses but can increase to or decrease home prices. Speak to an experienced Realtor about this. You may be forced to find middle ground between commuting distance and real estate costs.
