It looks as though the Las Vegas High-Rise condo market is finally starting to rebound.
When comparing the 1st and 2nd quarters of this year, average price per square foot increased from $213 to $256 and the length of time it takes to sell a condo reduced from 127 to 72 days. We are seeing inventory shrinking at the majority of the projects which should improve pricing in the 2ndhalf of the year. We are also seeing banks start to loan on at least ½ of the condo projects which will increase the buyer pool/demand over the next 12 months.

Rental inventory is continuing to shrink and there has been an average of a $100-$400 increase in rents in almost all properties depending on the size of the residence.
I have added some informative data to the new Investments page on our website which includes condo development statistics and all Las Vegas High Rise condo leases over the prior 12 months. Please visit http://www.mylvcondosales.com/investments/
The following is a brief update for projects that have had significant news/events.
Panorama Towers recently won its construction defect lawsuit is using the proceeds to make significant improvements to their common areas. Enhancements to the front, porte-cochere, pool areas and dog parks are expected by the end of year and there are some tenants planned to take over the retail space at the front of the building.
The Martin, which was formerly Panorama Tower North, continues to see increased sales and our team recently leased a 1bd residence at $2250 which was the highest non/Mandarin 1bd lease in the last 12 months.

Allure Las Vegas recently sold out of their developer inventory so the resale market will be the only option when purchasing. New casino plans have been announced for the small lot next to Allure and the re-opening of the Sahara in early 2014 should help the area.
Turnberry Towers West– is rolling out a new promotion offering up to 18 months of homeowners association dues paid when purchasing a new residence from the developer. Turnberry Towers is offering 1bds in the low $200’s and 2bds in the low $400’s and will finish out the residences per the clients specifications.
Turnberry Place– The Stirling Club at Turnberry Place has closed which has had a significant impact on values. I think there is upside at Turnberry Place if the club is re-opened and the projects that are stalled or being re-opened are finished, (Fontainebleau, Sahara)

Below is a summary of 2nd quarter sales and a breakdown for each building. This data comes from our Multiple Listing Service and may not include all developer sales.
