Real Recovery for Las Vegas Real Estate?

 
 
The sales numbers for Las Vegas real estate have been extremely promising over the last year and a half.  But does this mean that a real recovery is underway?  It might be too soon to tell.  One thing we can be sure of, however, is that Las Vegas, previously known as the foreclosure capital of the nation, has now become one of the hottest housing markets in the U.S.

As I discussed with my co-host Brad Henderson on the Las Vegas Real Estate Realty Hour show of February 9th, Las Vegas real estate appreciated between 15% and 24% last year alone.  This leads all other major metropolitan markets other than Phoenix.  

My personal experience in the Las Vegas marketplace bears out this trend.  Two years ago, it was relatively easy for me to find investment properties for my clients at $50/sq. ft. or even less.  Now it is difficult to find properties listed under $100/sq. ft.  This recovery seems to be extending to new construction as well.  New construction ground almost to a halt in the Las Vegas valley for over four years after the real estate bubble burst, but now new builds are back in full swing and selling at a brisk pace.
