Now is a GREAT TIME to Buy a New Construction Home in Las Vegas

Buying New Construction

Now is a GREAT TIME to Buy a New Construction Home in Las Vegas

 

If you are thinking about buying a new construction home in the Las Vegas Valley, it’s important that you have your own real estate agent represent you. Keep in mind the builders will require that the real estate agent accompany and register you on your very first visit to the builder’s model home or community. Otherwise, if you visit a new home community and register without your agent, I will no longer be able to assist you in the process. It must be on the very first visit.

 

Southern Nevada house hunters face the highest mortgage rates in 20 years as the market grapples with a continued run-up in borrowing costs. The average rate on a 30-year home loan was 7.08% as of last week, up from 6.94% the week before and 3.14% a year ago, mortgage buyer Freddie Mac reported.

 

Builders’ land buying activity had also “basically decreased to zero as they wait and see where things end up going into the end of the year.

 

NOW is the best time to buy a NEW CONSTRUCTION Home in the Las Vegas Valley. Builders are offering incredible incentives on all of their quick move-in homes that will be completed by the end of the year. I feel it’s a no brainer to take advantage of all of these SAVINGS.

 

All of these builders are corporations and they need to make their year-end numbers. In order to do this, they are offering a lot of incentives to one, get rid of all of the standing inventory they have and two, to try to make their year-end numbers.

 

I feel that once these builders get rid of all of their inventory, then it will be a normal market for buying new construction and that the builders will not be offering all of these incentives. Why not take advantage of the lower interest rates that they are offering? Instead of paying over 7% in interest rates for a resale home with no closing costs. Why not buy a new construction home with a much lower interest rate and all of your closing costs covered? To me this is a no BRAINER!

 

If you are in the market to buy a new construction home this year, but afraid to because of where the market is heading; then this might be the best solution for you. I sell a lot of new construction homes across the Las Vegas Valley and this is the conclusion my clients have come to realize. They are taking advantage of the market and not letting the market control them. We are wheeling and dealing and also offering a lower purchase price on top of all the incentives.
