Hey everyone, welcome back to my channel for our November monthly market update! I’m here with Rob, and today we’re diving deep into the latest housing trends and numbers for October 2024 in the Las Vegas Valley. We’ve got a lot to talk about, so get comfortable!
With the elections now behind us, will we start to see a shift in the housing market? Buyers who were sitting on the sidelines, waiting to see who becomes president, are now ready to jump in.
Home sales and new listings are on the rise, yet the median price isn’t dropping as many had hoped. So, what does this mean for the market? Where could we be heading as we approach 2025? Can the Las Vegas housing market keep climbing, and if so, for how long?
Stay tuned as we break down these big questions and share our thoughts on the ever-changing Las Vegas housing scene. Plus, we’ll also cover the latest new construction builder incentives for October 2024 and announce who came out on top in last month’s bets. Don’t miss out!

As we approach the end of the year, it’s shaping up to be an excellent time to invest in a move-in-ready, new construction home. While I mention this every year, the final quarter is typically when builders offer their best incentives and more favorable interest rates. Plus, they want to make their year-end numbers. With the forecasted decrease in rates by year-end, it’s likely that builders may reduce the generous incentives we’ve seen in previous years.
Many new construction communities are nearing completion, and this is where some of the best deals can be found. To make the most of these opportunities, you’ll want an experienced real estate agent who knows how to negotiate effectively with builders on your behalf.
