North Las Vegas Home Sales: Financing by Price Range Out of 591 single-family homes sold in North Las Vegas in November, 189 (32.0%) were cash sales. At prices below $100,000 cash accounted for 54.7% of sales, signaling the competition that first-time homebuyers face from investors. The higher rate of VA financing relative to other areas of the valley can be explained by the proximity of Nellis Air Force Base.

Since the year is winding down and many of us may have some extra time over the next 2 weeks, now might be the time to check your credit report and start a plan of action for 2011. Many across the nation have had a rough year and times could continue to be rough for many even into 2011. But, many are also going to be trying to recover in 2011 from things such as foreclosure, job loss, wage cuts and the likes. Many in Las Vegas may have did a Las Vegas Short Sale and now would be a good time to remind yourself the road to recovering your credit score is up to you.

North Las Vegas Real Estate Market Report - REOs, Short Sales and Regular Sales In a previous look at the North Las Vegas real estate market, I highlighted sales price, volume, and financing trends.

Overall we have about 4.5 months of North Las Vegas real estate inventory. When we look at each of the listing types, we see that there are three distinct markets. Here are the current figures for North Las Vegas REOs, North Las Vegas short sales, and 'regular' North Las Vegas home sales. Absorption is the number of months it would take to sell the available inventory at current sales rates. (Available Inventory/November Sales = Absorption Rate). There are only two mon...
