What Happened in the July Real Estate Market?

A report released by Las Vegas REALTORS® (LVR) shows local home prices dipping for the second straight month, with fewer homes selling and more available for sale. Existing local home prices are still nearly four times higher than during their post-recession bottom in January of 2012, when the median single-family home price in Southern Nevada was $118,000. But since mortgage interest rates started rising in recent months, prices have been stabilizing, fewer homes have been selling, more homes are hitting the market and more sellers are lowering their asking prices or offering concessions Median Home Price $465,000 +14.8% from July 2021

Design Update: Desert Modern

What is Desert Modern? I believe that Desert Modern design is a nod to mid-century modern with clean lines, simplicity and bringing the outdoors in with textures, stone, wood, fibers and plants.

This architectural movement began with Frank Lloyd Wright – Architect, Designer, Writer and Educator. Originally from the mid-west, his first studio was in Oak Park, Illinois (a Chicago suburb). He built around 1000 structures in his career and retired to Arizona.

My Palm Springs Trip

My very good friends Kendall and Marco embarked on a new life in Palm Springs, California and invited me to join them as they awaited the finishing touches on their new home. I’ve always loved Palm Springs but this trip was special. We decided to take an architectural tour of some private homes and wow was that cool! I learned a lot about mid-century design. Most particularly fascinating was why the windows are so small and what seems odd places compared to modern designs. Here are some photos from three homes we toured. Two homes were very bright and artsy

8 Signs of a Good Agent Worth Selling Your Home

Not all real estate agents are equal. An analysis of 27 million transactions reveals that the top 5% of real estate agents sell homes for 10% more than the average agent.

But how do you know if a real estate agent is a top producer or an average Joe? Here are eight signs of a good real estate agent who can carry you
