  • This month’s report continues a few developing trends—inventory is growing (up another 1,000 + units and up for the 3rd consecutive month), specifically, REO inventory is up for the 4th consecutive month, and pending sales are down (nearly 600 units) for the 3rd month.
  • Short Sale closings declined versus the previous month for the first time in 6 months. The gap last month between REO and Short Sale closings was only 2.5%. Now it is back up to over 10%.
  • Blended inventory (3.58 months) and REO inventory (1.79 months) are the highest they have been in over 12 months.
  • Total closings are down 20% compared to July 2009. And REO closings are down over 50% compared to that same period.

As always, I am here for any comments, questions, or concerns you may have.

The numbers are encouraging. By many indicators Las Vegas real estate hit bottom late last year and now seems to be headed back up.
