Las Vegas housing prices held steady in January at a median of $345,000, which broke the record in November and remained unchanged in December.  But, according to The Las Vegas Realtor Association, inventory remains extremely low around the valley. I believe this is in part due to Appraisers being conservative in their valuations.  A healthy market is six months of inventory (days on market before an offer is accepted) as of today, we are around 3 weeks.  The current lack of inventory makes it difficult for both realtors and home buyers. Every time you go try to show a listing

What Makes Your Property Value Increase? Key Factors To Watch.

Appreciation: The celebrated phenomenon of your home’s value increasing over time.

My Biggest Staging Project Yet – Before & After

Presenting my biggest staging and remodeling project to date.  We were getting this home ready to list for sale.  Since this project was in Florida, we enlisted 3 realtors to interview, get feedback and ask what they would list it for.  They all came back in the low $600,000’s and if you know me, I was bound and determined to break a record.
