Hey My Friends ,
Is cash still king? Probably so, but cash buyers are backing off giving everyone else a golden opportunity!
Only 18% of homes in July sold to cash buyers. 82% of buyers obtained some sort of financing. 49% received a conventional loan, 18% FHA, 12% VA and 3% some other type of financing.
Homes on average sold for 98% of the list price. So if a home was listed for $100K it probably sold for around $98K.
The sweet Las Vegas boom or bust economy is actually stabilizing.
Here’s a quote from GLVAR President Janet Carpenter in the RJ this week: https://www.reviewjournal.com/business/housing/las-vegas-housing-market-most-stable-in-20-years-says-glvar-president-1820876/?fbclid=IwAR0_3lRKKVNy56h2DOl-rUoxF8vDxvmFpjN-eUQ0JV0JSQt3SC2PWqh1gfk
“We’re running out of synonyms for stable,” GLVAR President Janet Carpenter, of Signature Real Estate Group, said in a statement. “Local home prices are appreciating, but at a more gradual rate than they have been in many years. As we’ve been saying for months, the local housing market hasn’t been this stable in nearly 20 years.”.
