What Does it Mean if You are Looking to Buy?
The inventory of units in the Las Vegas valley has decreased, while sales are rising – this is what we call a seller’s market. That does not mean that now is not the time to buy.
With interest rates at phenomenally low numbers and this being an election year, now is the time to purchase if it is something that is on your mind.
Historically, interest rates rise after a major election, and we expect this year to be no different.
What Does it Mean if You are Looking to Sell?
With buyers jumping to take advantage of the current low interest rates and the deadline of the major election getting closer, now is a great time to list your home.
We don’t recommend waiting until mid-year to get started, as home sales can take anywhere from 30 days to several months based on numerous factors in the process.
Our goal is to get your home sold quickly for more money. Give us a call at 702-838-7700 to get started.
