Las Vegas Nevada Housing Market Update May 2021

In May, prices continued to soar, but there are some promising signs for our buyers out there that things might be in the early stages of leveling out. After months of many sitting out of the seller’s game with fear of missing out, homes are starting to hit the market. As a result, we’ve had four straight months of increasing inventory, with more entering the market every day.
