JACQUELINE SMITH HAS INTEREST IN HOMES
FROM ORANGE COUNTY TO LONG BEACH,
THROUGHOUT THE INLAND EMPIRE AND
NEVADA…”VIVA LAS VEGAS!”
Las Vegas home prices have been rising at one of the fastest rates in the country amid low availability and strong demand!
Las Vegas house prices were higher in June than they were a year earlier, but sales volume fell. The median sales price of previously owned single-family homes was $290,000 last month, down 1.7 percent from May but up 12.7 percent from June 2017, according to a new report from the GLVAR.
Buyers picked up 3,265 single-family homes in June, up 4 percent from May but down 8.9 percent year-over-year.
The inventory also remained well below last year’s levels, as 4,335 houses were on the market without offers at the end of June, up 5.3 percent from May but down 16.2 percent from last June, according to the GLVAR.
Advantages of living in Las Vegas vs. California
TAX RATES
• Nevada has no personal income tax. California has high property and sales taxes.
• Nevada’s funding comes from tourism, gaming and sales tax.
• Property tax rates in Nevada are capped at a 3% increase.
COST OF LIVING
• California’s average cost per square foot for residential land or property is about $237. This is more than twice the average in Las Vegas where cost per square foot is about $111. The cost of living in California can be challenging for new home buyers. Higher housing costs in California contributes to its higher cost of living.
LIFESTYLE
• Both California & Nevada offer surrounding beauty, a progressive lifestyle, and lots of sunshine. Nevada makes a lot of sense for any resident, at any stage in life. Its desert landscape, entertainment choices, and a low cost of living compared to California is a great choice for those looking for a place of residence in a tax friendly and beautiful city — the Las Vegas Valley.
