Homes in Las Vegas – Market Conditions










Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) December 8, 2004

Baby Boomers are discovering Las Vegas is not just a great vacation spot. The “Boomers” have started to flood the Las Vegas second-home market. Las Vegas is now giving some of the more traditional second home markets like Arizona, Florida, California, Colorado, South Carolina, North Carolina and Hawaii a real run for their real estate dollar.

Home prices have been stabilizing in the Las Vegas real estate market in the last 45 days due to inventories returning to an industry norm, you can look for the second-home markets to thrive during the winter months. This will unfortunately reduce housing inventories here in the Las Vegas Valley, but hopefully not to the low we experienced in the second quarter that drove real estate housing prices in Las Vegas to a record high.

With a substantial decrease in housing permits issued in October and November we could easily see housing inventories decrease to a level this coming spring that drove homes for sale in Las Vegas up over 30 percent in the second quarter of this year. The anticipated “bubble” burst simply did not happen as prices for homes in Las Vegas simply stabilized and sales continued to be robust.

Why the increased interest in Las Vegas for a second home? While there are many reasons the most predominate seems to be the value of our real estate market. Compared to the traditional second home markets in Sarasota, Myrtle Beach, Destin, Austin Texas, San Diego and Tucson, Las Vegas homes offer more home for the money and has recently out preformed many of these markets on property appreciation.

While the majority of second-home owners in the Las Vegas real estate market purchase property exclusively for their own use, there is a growing number that rent these properties out the majority of the year. These owners lean more towards the investment side of the Las Vegas homes market and are simply enjoying their property as a vacation home while their real estate investment receives a healthy annual appreciation.

One of the fastest growing sectors of the second-home market is Las Vegas Condos. This seems to be more a practical decision for many home owners based on time available.Condos in Las Vegas have less home owner requirements for maintenance than do single family homes. Not only is this desirable as an absentee owner while out of state, it also allows them more time to enjoy all that Las Vegas has to offer while they are here. There are many “Boomers” that prefer spending their free time on the famous Las Vegas Strip instead of cutting grass or trimming hedges.

According to the National Association of Realtors, consumers in their 40s and 50s will be responsible for 100,000 to 150,000 housing starts for the second-home market each year through 2010.

Las Vegas Developers have further tapped into this niche market by offering Luxury Condominiums, golf communities and age restricted communities in Las Vegas.

Regardless of reasons for wanting a second-home, you may want to consider the Las Vegas housing market before investing. In a town known worldwide for gambling,real estate in Las Vegas has proven itself to be a safe bet!

Brett Tabke, PubCon founder and WebmasterWorld chief executive


Austin, TX (PRWEB) May 11, 2011

PubCon Las Vegas 2011, the premier optimization and new media conference, will present a keynote panel featuring CNN.com SEO coordinator Topher Kohan, Disney SEO manager Jeff Preston, and the Wall Street Journal’s in-house SEO Alex Bennert, three of the leading corporate search engine optimization innovators.

This all-star “Enterprise-Level SEO In-House” keynote panel will explore the unique challenges and opportunities that corporate SEO professionals from the Wall Street Journal, Disney and CNN face daily.

“This unique and insightful in-house keynote panel will highlight an entire PubCon Las Vegas 2011 sub-conference dedicated to in-house search engine optimization, adding to a conference that already features an impressive 15 separate sub-conference tracks over a week of more than 100 sessions featuring over 200 top speakers,” Brett Tabke, PubCon founder and chief executive, said.

“I always look forward to the in-house session because I can hear about the challenges other SEOs are facing — organizational, technical, analytical, etcetera — and hear how the in-house teams are addressing those challenges,” Preston said. “I am a big fan of both Alex and Topher so I am looking forward to hearing how they are taking advantage of the search opportunities they have with their brands and sites,” he added.

Preston manages the in-house SEO program for Disney.com at Disney Interactive Media Group, the Disney property that serves vast amounts of popular online and mobile content worldwide.

“The WebmasterWorld community has provided me with a trove of valuable SEO nuggets over the years,” Bennert said. “I’m excited for this opportunity to give back by sharing useful insights I’ve learned while working as an in-house SEO for the Journal,” she added.

Bennert has been involved in the search industry since 1999 and has a passion for search. It has been noted that she “dwells on bot behavior, ponders crawl barriers and conjures ideal URLs while waiting in line at the grocery store,” making her a perfect fit for PubCon Las Vegas 2011′s in-house keynote panel.

Kohan is the in-house SEO coordinator for CNN.com and all of Turner Broadcasting’s news properties, including CNN Money, CNN International and iReport, and oversaw CNN.com’s single largest search traffic day during the 2008 United States presidential election.

“To get the chance to speak on a keynote panel at PubCon is a boyhood dream of mine, and now that it has happened I am not 100 percent sure what will keep me motivated to get out of bed every day,” Kohan said.

Bringing these three powerful in-house leaders together for one very special PubCon Las Vegas 2011 keynote panel will provide a rare and valuable look at the world of corporate SEO, making for a must-attend keynote event.

Las Vegas Strip Condo Website Geared Towards Celebrities and Pro Athletes Hits the Scene

August 31st, 2010


VegasCondoScene focuses on protecting celebrities and athletes.


Las Vegas, Nevada (PRWEB) April 16, 2008

Once again, Celebrity High-Rise Consultant Aaron Auxier is the talk of the town. Auxier recently launched the new www.VegasCondoScene.com, a chic and trendy website that caters to celebrities and professional athletes who want to learn about the Las Vegas high-rise market.

“VegasCondoScene is extremely easy to use and shares relevant facts about individual buildings,” explains Auxier. “Most importantly, it gives those who seek discretion an opportunity to learn about my boutique firm Luxury Realty Group, our commitment to client privacy, and our connections in Las Vegas. It’s where hip meets luxury.”

Taking the place of typical client testimonials is a Kudos page. Having been tagged ‘Hollywood’s Connection to Vegas’ by E! Entertainment founder Alan Mruvka, visitors can read quotes from people in the entertainment and real estate industries regarding Auxier’s knowledge of the market and experience with protecting high-profile clientele.

The focus on education is made obvious throughout the site. Frequently Asked Questions, High-Rise Tips, and Questions to Ask a REALTOR® are all found in the site’s menus. Visitors can learn what they might: sacrifice by requesting information direct from a sales center, encounter in a dual agency, and much more. “I want celebrities and athletes to know that they have rights when it comes to purchasing high-rise condos in Las Vegas,” says Auxier. “Many times they don’t know how easily they can lose those rights. Think of me as a sports agent for real estate”

Aaron also understands why some people get frustrated and contact sales centers direct. “Las Vegas high-rise websites (built by real estate agents) are often outdated when it comes to information, renderings, and pricing,” he says. “Many sites simply clutter their pages with cut-and-paste information from developer websites.

VegasCondoScene features 100 percent original, hand-written content. An exciting feature of the site is the Lifestyle: by Aaron sections. Whether they desire the glitz and glamour of The Harmon Residences at CityCenter or the refined global elegance of the Palazzo Luxury Condominiums, potential investors will get an insider’s take on the ambiance and vibe of individual projects.

Visitors can also view a map which highlights the locations of hotel and condo developments on or near the Las Vegas Strip. Through the use of a color-coded legend, the map points out projects that are: proposed, approved, under construction, and existing.

Aaron Auxier, who recently received national press for setting the top-three residential price-per-square-foot records in the history of Las Vegas by selling multiple penthouses to clients ‘in the music biz’, seems to have yet another hit on his hands.

The new VegasCondoScene is ready for prime time.
