Summerlin West Average Home Sale Price goes up, Total Home Sales Reported Drops
These are numbers reported from the Greater Las Vegas Multiple Listing Service for Las Vegas zip code 89138, commonly referred to as Summerlin West.
It includes Single Family Homes and Condominiums and does not include For Sale by Owners or New Home sales currently taking place in Summerlin West.
Snapshots are reported from September of 2006, September of 2011 and September of 2012. The reason for these three dates:
-
September of 2006 is widely regarded as a time frame within the peak of the Housing Bubble in Las Vegas.
-
September of 2011 – The month before Nevada Assembly Bill 284 was put into effect on 10/01/2012. This legislation was enacted to address “robo-signing” and modified the penalties for “robo-signing” in Nevada. Violations could be charged as a Felony with fines and jail time.
-
September of 2012 – Reported sales 11 months after AB 284 to see the effects on the real estate market.
These are just numbers reported as Averages for the zip code. There are other factors involved in analyzing and determining a proper market value for a home.
