The number of condos sold in these buildings continues to be low. Although this month we had a few more transactions than last month. We sold 24 high rise condos in May after dropping to only 16 in April. A high percentage of our high rise buyers tend to be out of the area. The tourists haven’t been flying in and the high rise buyers seem to have disappeared along with them.

Las Vegas High Rise News - April 2020

Today’s high rise buyers have 467 condos available in our top buildings. Only a slight increase over the 460 available last month. A year ago we had 445 condos available in the same buildings.
 
The number of condos sold in these buildings has taken a big hit due to the Covid 19 shutdown. We only sold 16 condos in those buildings for the month of April. That’s down from 46 in March and 62 in April 2019. 
 
This drop in sales is likely to last until we start getting businesses open again. Another problem with high rise condos is many are tenant occupied. We’re not allowed to show tenant occupied homes. Luckily, sellers aren’t trying to dump condos. 
 
During the recession, financing dried up in the high rise market. The last couple of years it became available in many of the buildings again. The mortgages offered in high rise buildings now require at least 20-25% down. For those reasons, there is far more equity in the high rise market than was there in the crash of 2008.
 
Top Sellers in April - this was a three way tie. Signature at MGM Grand, Allure and Turnberry Place all had two condos sold. Other buildings had no activity or only sold one condo for the month. Compare that to last month when Palms Place sold 10, MGM sold 8. ONE Queensridge and Turnberry Place tied for third with 5 each. It’s a significant drop.
 
Las Vegas High Rise Prices - We only sold one luxury condo priced at $1M or more. Waldorf Astoria #3510 was listed for $1 Million and sold for $1 Million with zero days on the market. The 1 bedroom, 1 bath condo measured 1105 sf. It was sold with zero days on the market.  That compares to March when we sold 9 priced at $1M plus and three were above $3 Million.
 
Price Per Square Foot - Only three condos sold for more than $400/sf in April. The Waldorf Astoria condo was the most expensive at $905/sf. Second was Veer Towers West #2908. It closed at $555/sf. Third was Tower 2 at MGM Signature. It closed at $418/sf. 
 
Lowest Prices - Palms Place #33320 was listed for $190K & closed for $190K. Juhl #217 was listed for $199,900 and closed for that. Signature at MGM #1516 was listed for $228,888 and closed for $217,500.
 
Lowest Price Per Square Foot - ONE Las Vegas #111 sold for $224/sf. Turnberry Place Tower 4, #2503 sold for $228/sf. Allure #3611 closed for $239/sf.

In the residential buildings, Turnberry Place, Turnberry Towers and Panorama Towers all tied. There were 7 deals in each community. Veer Towers came in just behind them with 6 closings.
Most Expensive Deals - We sold 6 luxury condos between $1.028M and $1.675M in July. Top price was unit 1005 at ONE Queensridge Place Tower 2. Listed for $1.675M it closed for $1.675M with zero days on the market.
Second place was unit 207 at Park Towers. This one was listed for $1.695M and sold for $1.64M after 285 days on the market.
Third place was back to ONE Queensridge Place. Unit 705 in Tower 1 was listed for $1.525M and sold for $1.525M with zero days on the market.
The other three units were in Veer Towers, Mandarin Oriental and ONE Las Vegas. It's the first time a condo at ONE LV closed for more than $1 Million.
Highest Price Per Square Foot - Mandarin Oriental continues to command highest prices per square foot. Unit 2611 at The Mandarin closed for $929/sf in July. It was followed by unit 2904 in Veer Towers West at $632/sf. Trump had four studios on the 56th floor that closed at $627/sf.
Lowest Prices - We still see some bargains in the market. Allure had two bargains last month. Unit 911 was listed for $215K and sold for $200K after 35 days on the market. Unit 2209 was listed for $178,500 and sold for $176K after 127 days on the market.
Lowest Price Per Square Foot - Three of our high rise condos closed for less than $200/sf. This is an important figure because you simply cannot build a high rise condo for this price. Biggest steal was unit 911 at Allure. It closed at $183/sf. It was followed by unit 204 at Turnberry Place Tower 1. This one closed at $198/sf. Next was Turnberry Place Tower 4 unit 803. It sold for $199/sf.
The high rise market is improving after years of over-supply but prices aren’t close to the peak prices.

Other High Rise News - The Mandarin Oriental brand is leaving Las Vegas.  MGM Resorts announced that Waldorf Astoria is buying the Mandarin Oriental.  It will accept Hilton Honors points and the domain WaldorfAstoriaLasVegas.com has been registered.  Property values should continue to be strong whether it's called Mandarin Oriental or Waldorf.  It offers a terrific location with luxury finishes.  It is rumored that Waldorf will be spending $50 Million to renovate the property.  Another reason we don't expect any negative impact on property values.

Owners at Turnberry Place had good news as well.  The moth-balled Fontainebleau structure has been sold.  The NY Hotelier who bought it will be working with Marriot to finish the structure and open The Drew.  No date has been announced for the completion but it will definitely be more appealing when lights are on.

Renovations are moving along at The Stirling Club in the midst of Turnberry Place.  Latest newsletter says the pool has been resurfaced.  Restoration of the tennis courts is almost complete.  Stirling Club will be partnering with Starbucks to open a coffee shop.  New owners have already invested more than $1 million  for repairs and renovations.  It should be back to its old grandeur in no time.

Las Vegas High Rise News - July 2017

 Inventory in Las Vegas top high rise buildings is at 373 condos for sale today.  That's up from last month when we reported 346 condos for sale.  Part of the jump is due to a change in the buildings we track for this report.  Until this month, we haven't included ONE Las Vegas and JUHL.  These buildings were turned into rentals during the recession.  In fact, the few owners who had closed on units in these buildings had difficulty selling the condos once so many of them were turned into rentals.  The investors in control of them are now selling the condos as tenants move out.  Therefore, we've added them to our reporting.

We sold 79 luxury high rise condos in July.  That's a drop from the 84 we sold in June, especially since the June figure didn't include the two newly added buildings.  ONE Las Vegas sold 11 units during the month.  JUHL sold 2.  Without their transactions, we would have only sold 66.  That's about even with the 67 we sold in the same month last year.

Top Sellers in July - Panorama Towers and ONE Las Vegas tied for highest sales volume with 11 units changing hands in both communities.  Signature at MGM was second with 8 units sold.  Palms Place and The Ogden tied for third with 7 units sold in each complex.

Las Vegas High Rise Price Trends

Only 3 luxury condos sold for $1 Million or more in July.  Most expensive deal was Turnberry Place Tower 2, Unit 3301.  This penthouse was listed for $5.5M and closed for $4.5M after 341 days on the market.  The Mandarin Oriental took second place for total sales price with unit 3807.  Listed for $1.475M, it sold for $1.275M.  While the total price paid was lower, the Mandarin condo fetched $805/sf.  The Turnberry Place penthouse was close at $779/sf.  Third place was ONE Queensridge Place, Bldg 1 Unit 601.  Listed at $2.35M, it closed for $2.235M or $466/sf. 

Las Vegas High Rise News - June 2017

Inventory in Las Vegas' Top High Rise Towers is down to 346 today.  That's a big improvement in the high rise market.  That's a drop from 370 last month and from 34% from the 529 luxury condos listed in July 2016.  

Sales volume is up too.  We sold 84 luxury high rise condos in June.  Up from 64 in May and 67 in June 2016. The increased sales volume over the past few months has brought our monthly average up to 76 units for the past year.  If sales continue at that rate, today's 346 condos would be absorbed in less than five months.

Turnberry Towers Las Vegas Luxury High RiseTop Sellers in June - Turnberry Towers was the top seller last month, with 9 luxury condos sold.  Second place was a four way tie between Palm's Place, MGM Signature, The Ogden and Veer Towers with 8 transactions in each of those buildings.  The Martin took third place with six condos sold.

Las Vegas High Rise Price Trends

The surplus inventory that has plagued our high rise market for years is finally being absorbed and prices are staying strong.  While the market is beginning to favor sellers, units that are priced at market value are selling quicker and for better prices.  An example is unit 808 at SOHO Lofts.  It was my listing and the seller was realistic.  Only three condos have sold in SOHO over the past year, including this one.  We used nearby Newport Lofts and JUHL to arrive at our price of $269K.  Within two days, we had two offers.  It sold for $270K cash and the buyer contributed to the seller's closing costs.  The building has eight units currently listed for sale.  They've sat on the market between 35 and 203 days.  

We sold seven high rise condos for $1 Million or more.  Four of the top prices were between $2M and $3.4M.  Three out of the top four were at Mandarin Oriental.  Unit 3808 with 2910 sf closed at $3.4M.  Park Towers had the second highest price.  Unit 1503 with 4903 sf closed at $3.375M.
