REO Financing Profile for Las Vegas Area

REO Financing Profile for Las Vegas Area

Cash is the obvious dominator with overall Las Vegas Area REO Purchases. Cash not only dominates but CRUSHES financed purchases under $75000. The primary reason is the stuff priced under $75000 is unhabitable and ineligible for financing or is condo ineligible for financing.

Asset managers for REO also may choose cash offers that may be lower than financed simply because financed offers have exceeded their appraised price on the property or because there are less contingencies and they can close quicker (which takes the asset - or liability - off of their books quicker.)

Condo financing is currently a challenge in the Las Vegas Area. Lenders want to see low investor concentration, low HOA deliquencies and no construction defect or other litigation against HOA or community. To determine if a condo is eligible for financing, a condo certification may be ordered from the HOA (this does cost money) and have it run by an underwriter.

Whether you are all cash or a financed buyer, you can search Las Vegas Area (Henderson & North Las Vegas too) homes right here for free and no obligation!

Las Vegas NV Area Concession Stand March 2012 (includes Henderson & North Las Vegas)

Las Vegas Real Estate

Here is what buyers received in seller paid concessions on February 2012 Las Vegas Area (Henderson - N Las Vegas - Las Vegas) Closes:

  • Less than $500: 73% ($500 only buys you a home warranty or (no and) an appraisal)
  • Between $501-4000: 18%
  • Over $4001: 9%

This pretty much means that sellers aren't giving up much of anything since Las Vegas is a Seller's Market and in dire need of sellable inventory! Inventory levels are rising just slightly and we are seeing some movement/improvement in this sector which is good news, especially for buyers who want/need closing costs!

Las Vegas NV Area Market Watch April 2012 (includes Henderson & North Las Vegas)

Las Vegas Homes For Sale

**The Freefall Inventory Plunge Continues in Las Vegas!!!**

We are still squeezed for inventory.  New REO listings are few and far between thanks to AB 284 with currently no end to that drama in sight.  Multiple offers on well priced homes are widespread. Everyone from first time buyers to investors are taking advantage of "opportunity".

Read more about Las Vegas Real Estate Inventory Analysis here and consumers may comment on this post.

Las Vegas Area Real Estate Market Watch was created for informational purposes only.

This is for all the buyers wondering "where is the inventory"? The inventory is here, this graph shows that buyer interest is extremely high and gobbling up all that new inventory coming online!

This is also for people saying "shadow inventory exists"! Well I believe it exists but it also exists in Las Vegas short sales which has tripled to quadrupled it's formerly stagnant close ratio since late spring.

These are Listing/Under Contract & Pending/Sold Trends from December 2007-April 2012.

Contracted closings are stalled because of the large amount of Las Vegas short sales that are contracted.

Economic Conditions for the Las Vegas Valley April 2012 (includes Henderson & North Las Vegas)

Las Vegas Area Homes for Sale

Las Vegas Area Homes for Sale

Las Vegas Area Homes for Sale

 

  • Foreclosure/Short Sale Listings (3/15/2012): Total Listings 7259; Short Sales: 2965, 41% of all listings; Bank Owned Listings: 1235, 17% of all listings. Short sale and REO listings consume 58% of total listings
  • New Home Sales (January 2012, units sold): 216 Year Change -3.6% (excl condo conversions, highrises)
  • New Home Sales (January 2012, median price): $207,000 Year Change -0.2% (excl condo conversions, highrises)
  • Existing Home Sales (February 2012, units sold): 3639 Year Change +25.0%
  • Existing Home Sales (January 2012, median price): $108,000 Year Change: -9.2%
  • New Home Permits (January 2012): 317 Year Change -45.2%
  • Rental Rate (MLS Monthly Average February 2012): $1347/month

My analysis: Distressed listings (foreclosures and short sales) are 58% of total listings.  This is going down due to AB 284.  We shall see units distressed units listed continue to go down until probably mid summer unless the bill is repealed.  New construction numbers may rise as there will be fewer alternatives to buyers who need something SOON.  Units of homes sold remain impressive. Credit markets must be watched as underwriting guidelines continue to tighten. Condos are barely financeable. Inventory stopped it's slow increase in December 2010 and now opportunistic buyers are gobbling up inventory through the summer and this trend seems to be continuing through winter. The rental market is softening due to all the investor/first time buyer combination of activity. This adds more supply and creates less demand to the rental market. Las Vegas is an anomoly to the law of supply & demand, anything can happen!

New Residents/Employment Conditions:

Las Vegas Area New Resident Count

Total Employment in Las Vegas

  • New Residents (February 2012): 5061, Year Change +14.1%
  • Total Employment (January 2012): 803,100 Year Change +0.7%
  • Unemployment Rate (January 2012) 13.1%, Year Change -1.3%

My analysis: This sector is FINALLY seeing stabilization thus improvement. It is VERY encouraging to seem these numbers improve - even if slightly! Unemployment rate is still painful however the total employed numbers have remained close to stable for a year. Slight increase with unemployment rate the last two months. 

Tourism/Gaming Conditions:

Las Vegas Area Convention Attendance

  • McCarran Airport Total Passengers (January 2012): 3,175,897 Year Change +0.3%
  • Gaming Revenue (January 2012): $925,487,094, Year Change +21.6%
  • Visitor Volume (January 2012): 3,397,998, Year Change +0.4%
  • Convention Attendance (January 2012): 538,552, Year Change -12.6%
  • Hotel/Motel Occupancy (January 2012): 78.3% Year Change -0.9%

My analysis: This sector (tourism) needs to see some serious price corrections before we see a comeback. Corporate credit is not coming back any time soon. It will be hard to get convention attendance back up without corporate credit. Glad to see regular tourists are making their way here with the imbalance of the other numbers to replace the convention attendee numbers. Visitor Volume, Gaming Revenue & Convention Attendance are encouraging and hopefully sustainable.  Rising gas prices can potentiall hurt this sector and could be a major setback to the recovery of the Las Vegas economy!

Las Vegas NV Area Sold Terms & Trends February 2012 (includes Henderson & North Las Vegas)

las vegas area homes for sale

Las Vegas Area Homes for Sale

Cash REMAINS KING in the Las Vegas Area Real Estate Market!!! It is important for every buyer in the Las Vegas Area Real Estate Market to understand who their buyer competition is in this currently competitive seller's market LV is enjoying! It is important to understand how a seller looks at each financing type:

Cash Offers: Generally have less contingencies and quicker close times. A cash offer may be accepted even if it is lower than a financed offer.

Conventional Financing: Less strict with lender required repairs but larger down payments and more strict credit guidelines.

FHA/VA Financing: Requires more scrutiny with lender required repairs via appraisal. In general these take longer to underwrite and close so a cash or conventional offer looks more enticing to the seller. FHA Requires the deed to be seasoned for several months so some flips bought at trustee's sales are generally out as options when competing with multiple offers!

Other: Less common and creative financing types such as Lease Options, OWC (Owner Will Carry), etc. The "other" category INCLUDES auction terms!!

Ca$h or Credit: Las Vegas NV Area REO Financing Profiles for December 2011 (includes Henderson & North Las Vegas)

REO Financing Profile for Las Vegas Area

REO Financing Profile for Las Vegas Area

Cash is the obvious dominator with overall Las Vegas Area REO Purchases. Cash not only dominates but CRUSHES financed purchases under $75000. The primary reason is the stuff priced under $75000 is unhabitable and ineligible for financing or is condo ineligible for financing.

Asset managers for REO also may choose cash offers that may be lower than financed simply because financed offers have exceeded their appraised price on the property or because there are less contingencies and they can close quicker (which takes the asset - or liability - off of their books quicker.)

Condo financing is currently a challenge in the Las Vegas Area. Lenders want to see low investor concentration, low HOA deliquencies and no construction defect or other litigation against HOA or community. To determine if a condo is eligible for financing, a condo certification may be ordered from the HOA (this does cost money) and have it run by an underwriter.

Whether you are all cash or a financed buyer, you can search Las Vegas Area (Henderson & North Las Vegas too) homes right here for free and no obligation!

Las Vegas NV Area Market Watch January 2012 (includes Henderson & North Las Vegas)

Las Vegas Homes For Sale

**Inventory Continues to Plunge Down in January!!!**

We are still squeezed for inventory.  New REO listings are few and far between thanks to AB 284 with currently no end to that drama in sight.  Multiple offers on well priced homes are widespread. Everyone from first time buyers to investors are taking advantage of "opportunity".

Read more about Las Vegas Real Estate Inventory Analysis here and consumers may comment on this post.

Las Vegas Area Real Estate Market Watch was created for informational purposes only.

This is for all the buyers wondering "where is the inventory"? The inventory is here, this graph shows that buyer interest is extremely high and gobbling up all that new inventory coming online!

This is also for people saying "shadow inventory exists"! Well I believe it exists but it also exists in Las Vegas short sales which has tripled to quadrupled it's formerly stagnant close ratio since late spring.

These are Listing/Under Contract & Pending/Sold Trends from December 2007-November 2011.

Contracted closings are stalled because of the large amount of Las Vegas short sales that are contracted.

Las Vegas NV Area Concession Stand December 2011 (includes Henderson & North Las Vegas)

Las Vegas Real Estate

Here is what buyers received in seller paid concessions on December 2011 Las Vegas Area (Henderson - N Las Vegas - Las Vegas) Closes:

  • Less than $500: 70% ($500 only buys you a home warranty or (no and) an appraisal)
  • Between $501-4000: 20%
  • Over $4001: 10%

This pretty much means that sellers aren't giving up much of anything since Las Vegas is a Seller's Market and in dire need of sellable inventory! Inventory levels are rising just slightly and we are seeing some movement/improvement in this sector which is good news, especially for buyers who want/need closing costs!
