Spring is almost here and with it, the Spring home buying and selling season.  This year promises to be a challenging market for Las Vegas home buyers.  We have a low inventory of homes listed for sale.  Luckily, our home builders have started new subdivisions all around town.  The new homes provide an option for buyers who don’t see what they want in the resale market.

Home sellers should do well this Spring.  The median price is still lingering around $220K with February’s median at $220,350.  If inventory stays low, demand from Spring buyers may push prices up a little.
