Pop on over to my Bank Owned Homes for sale in Las Vegas page where I’ve been tracking the Bank Owned inventory for sale since May of 2007 (scroll all the way to the bottom of the page) to see what has taken place since then. 

May of 2007 – 589 Bank Owned Homes for Sale

Also, the properties AUTOMATICALLY update so the numbers will change. Reported numbers listed below are from the actual Las Vegas MLS and includes all of Las Vegas, Henderson and North Las Vegas.)

A question that I’ve been getting for quite some time now is the inquirer “heard” that there is going to be a bunch of “shadow inventory” that is going to be dumped on the Las Vegas market forcing prices down. As of right now… there is no such indication that is going to happen. Multiple offers are taking place on nice homes… I’ve even been in multiple bidding wars on properties priced $500,000 plus.

Everybody also needs to keep in mind that interest rates are extremely low and all of the people that got foreclosed on or short sold their homes over 3 years ago are back in the market with many of them qualified to buy. I’ve even come across a buyer that short sold their Las Vegas home and bought one of my listings right after their short sale sold. (It is possible if the guidelines are followed.)

And it’s not even the traditional “Buying Season” in Las Vegas yet..

In an upcoming post I’ll go over what’s been taking place for the actual foreclosure notices being filed where there is no indication that the inventory shortage is going to change anytime soon.
