What to Expect From the Las Vegas Real Estate Market in 2010

By Wilbur Q Zonjas

If you're thinking about investing within the real estate market in the Las Vegas, then now is an opportunist time to do it. With the the economic crisis looming and market values for most big ticket items hitting rock bottom, house values and interest rates are lower than most anyone has ever seen, perfect for those wanting to get into the real estate market.

Although there have been mixed reports on how 2009 will affect real estate markets in Las Vegas. There is one thing that still rings true and that is the fact that market prices are soon going to be on the rise. The only thing that seems to differ within these reports is the time scale of how long the rejuvenation of the industry will take. There are some people who are planning on it taking only being a year and others predicting longer. At the moment there is low demand for houses in the Las Vegas area and also an abundance of properties. This is mainly due to the fact that people buying homes has decreased to an astounding level in most places within America. Although Vegas were certainly not the worst affected of all the areas, things still slowed down considerably.

With more people being out of work between 2005 and 2008 in Las Vegas, there simply was no demand for housing. This is especially with regards to investments. However, the job shortages are said to now be over with the increase of multi-billion dollar resorts being built. New residents are seeing that jobs are easily found in most Casino's and Resort's.

The new resorts that opened in the latter part of 2008 have set a trend for the increasing job flow. There are new resorts, hotels and casinos being opened and planned for the whole part of 2009 and carrying on through 2010. The jobs available are increasing nicely at a steady rate. It was this unemployment hitting record highs that caused the meltdown of the real estate market in Las Vegas. Thankfully more jobs have encouraged more incomes and this in turn has generated more demand for the vast inventory of available housing.

This area is suffering somewhat from falling home prices and rates on loans. This is proving to make things much simpler for investors and those looking to put their hard earned cash into the real estate market in Las Vegas. Ready sources of houses and other such properties are a great relief right now. The land prices hit the roof alongside the construction costs. For savvy investors this means that if you are looking to buy homes in Las Vegas, now may be your time.

It has been reported that even though the real estate has practically come to a standstill in recent years. 6,000 new residents are still flocking to the city every month. There is also an increase in the number of jobs that are available. The appropriately priced housing means that many more are soon to be flocking. The later end of 2009 has been the estimation date for the house prices and interest rates rising again. Although some critics have stated this to be a far too optimistic time scale, it shouldn't be far off this estimation.

Even though Bank owned property are always going to be a wild card in the real estate market, and more so with the Las Vegas market and the changes that it is currently going through. As long as numbers foreclosures start declining, the real estate market will soon return back to normal. For those looking to make some money out of the real estate forecast for Las Vegas in 2009, now is an excellent time to invest in Las Vegas real estate. - 23200
