Developments in southwest valley rise after years of delays and defaults – VEGAS INC

When Las Vegas’ construction industry was white hot last decade, few places grew as fast as the southwest valley.

Buoyed by new freeway access and Wall Street’s easy money, investors flipped land for profit and built subdivisions, strip malls, office buildings and hospitals, with even more plans for an area that years earlier was largely open desert. But business plunged with the recession.

Today, as the economy improves, few places are getting as much action. Developers are building or planning to construct apartment complexes, industrial properties, big-box retail and single-family homes around the 215 Beltway between Interstate 15 and Flamingo Road.

Smart Landlords Require Renters Insurance | Zillow Pros Blog

Purchasing landlord insurance is a no-brainer when you buy an investment property — but despite offering greater protection than homeowners insurance, it doesn’t shield you from all liability on your property.

You can, however, increase the coverage on your rental and lower your costs in the long run — without adding to your own expenses — by requiring your residents to purchase renters insurance prior to moving into your property.

A Definitive Guide to Understanding Cap Rates and Cash-on-Cash Returns

There are several means of determining the return on an investment property.

You may hear the term “ROI” (or “ROR”), which means “Return on Investment” (or “Rate of Return”), which can be calculated in all sorts of ways.

Unfortunately, a lot of people will determine this number based on whatever factors will yield the highest number, regardless of how accurate to real-life it might be.

ROI is very general and encompasses your overall return on investment and it includes a lot of estimates and unproven numbers.

Leveraging vs. Paying Cash: A Look at the Infamous Debate

Oh, the famous debate. Should you pay cash for your investment properties, specifically rental properties, or should you leverage them? If you are new and don’t know what leveraging means, it means using a loan or some other form of money (basically anyone’s money other than your own) to buy property. Buying a house using a mortgage is a perfect example of leveraging.

If you haven’t caught wind of this debate yet, just search for about five seconds on the BiggerPockets Forums and you should find enough entries about this to hold you over for hours! If you have seen these posts or been involved in the debate, you already know exactly what I’m talking about.

Sale of Stirling Club in limbo three years after closing – Las Vegas Sun News

The last real tremors of activity at the Mansion and Stirling Club at Turnberry Place were the night the club closed three years ago, when Kelly Clinton-Holmes and Ronnie Rose belted out Donna Summer’s “Last Dance” to sound the end of a 10-year party.

The latest signs of a pulse from the party palace on Paradise Road is a group of investors from a New York hospitality company that reportedly is willing to make a $15 million offer on the property.
