By the numbers: Housing industry rebounding in Las Vegas; prices still high
The Las Vegas housing market appears to be rebounding from last year’s numbers, but home prices remain high, a new report from the Las Vegas Realtors (LVR) association revealed.
The report, released Tuesday, showed home prices remain high and the market is beginning to slow down, with lowering prices and more homes available on the market.
LVR President Merri Perry said that unlike the rest of the nation, homes in Las Vegas have been “selling faster than they were at the same time last year,” but they’re also “seeing more homes available.”
Here’s a look at the market, by the numbers:
$475,000: The median price that existing single-family homes sold for in Southern Nevada through LVR’s multiple listing service (MLS) in June. In June 2023, the median price was $440,990.
The all-time record is $482,000 and was set in May 2022.
