High rise Condo’s V.S Single Family Homes

Over the last couple years i have ran across a very common debate with clients and friends. Ever time it’s the same thing or very similar, ” why buy a High rise when the market is doing so bad” or “The market is horrible right now I would never buy a High rise Condo until the market turned around”. What these people don’t understand is comparing the High Rise Condo market here in Las Vegas with the Single Family market is like comparing oranges to apples. They are complete opposites. Not only are they complete opposites but they also are preforming in two different ways right now and always will. Despite what the national news says on a daily basis about the housing market the Las Vegas High rise market is one of the strongest Real Estate sectors in our country and perhaps the world for that matter. Even though there have been canceled projects there has been great success with developments that have been completed or are currently under construction. The average price of a single family home has declined so dramatically that people haven’t payed enough attention to the positives in the Real Estate market like our current High Rise Condo market which has grown at an unbelievable rate. For example if you bought a High rise condo in the pre construction phase and paid lets say $420 per square foot you can now receive up to $740 a square foot. Those numbers are no joke even though they are just for an example because people have and will continue to see returns similar to that which i have just described. You definatly can’t say that about any single family market in the USA that i know of. When Panorama Towers were completed a few years ago the developer approached all of the purchasers with a buy back opportunity were he offered to pay 30% more per square foot than what they paid. “Why would he do that”, you might be think right now and the answer is simple, HE KNEW WHAT WAS COMING. I am making a prediction that once MGM’s City Center and Fontainebleau are completed you will see the High Rise Condo prices sky rocket to new heights that nobody could have dreamed of. We are still in a pre mature market for High rise Condo’s here in Las Vegas and over the next couple of years there will be an even higher demand for these property’s due to the fact that there is a limited amount of space available. Those who buy now will not only own some of the most desired property’s in the world but they will also receive some of the most extreme returns on their money. I personally believe that if you can afford to buy a Las Vegas High rise condo at the moment and are willing to hold on to it for at least 2 years you will have made one of the BEST investments in your life. It is very important that you are represented by an experienced professional who knows and understand the High rise Condo Market here before you actually purchase. Hope you enjoy this post and be on the look out for my NEW video blog which will becoming very soon for all of you who don’t like to read :) The Video below is one that i have posted a while ago but i feel it’s a good one to add with this post.

Fully FurnishedTurnberry Penthouse 4 SALE

WOW. The high rise market here in Las Vegas is becoming more and more popular by the minute. Despite the downward spiraling single family sector here in Las Vegas the High rise market especially the million dollar plus properties are selling like hot cakes. High end buyers can expect to see huge gains in the properties they are purchasing. Yesterday myself and my marketing director visited 2 Turnberry Towers penthouses that were absolutely amazing. One penthouse was located on the 30th floor and the other on the 35th. Both penthouses come fully furnished and have spectacular views of the city and strip. My favorite was the penthouse on the 30th floor because it had nicer views and furnishings. Within the next couple of days we will be done with the virtual tours of both so that all of our readers can see them in a way that nobody else can provide. The comps in the Turnberry Towers for a penthouse range from 2.4 mil all the way to 6 mil. I have included a few pictures of the 30th floor penthouse so that you can all have a look to see what a true Las Vegas high rise is suppose to fee and look like. This penthouse is the BEST priced and has the nicest features and furnishings. All serious high end Condo buyers should seriously consider this property because it offers the biggest bang for your buck. Ok Ok Ok, the price is ONLY 2.4 million which is actually a steal. You have 3 private balconies with amazing views. FYI: ALL furniture and furnishings are included in sale price. The floor plan is defiantly the best one in the building because it’s a corner unite which gives you panoramic views of the whole city. Again this is a defiant steal in my opinion if you are able to afford the 2.4 mil price tag. Enjoy the pics and remember the virtual video tour is coming within the next couple of days so keep your eyes open and get your check books ready because i have a feeling that this one is going to go FAST.

Trump Studio Now Available

As you may know Trump International Hotel & Tower is now complete and will have it’s grand opening at the end of this month. There is a very limited supply of studios unites in this luxurious development which originally sold for $600k and up but you can now have access to a 26th floor studio with breath taking views of the Wynn resort, Wynn Golf Course, Wynn Encore and the new Palazzo for under $600k today. There are very few of these high demand unites available so if you are interested you should act fast before it’s to late. With th opening of Trump Tower and construction of many other High Rise Condo developments here in Las Vegas making great progress you can expect prices to increase dramatically over the next 2 years. Land values continue to climb at a super fast pace so far this year and there is no slowing down in site. Contact me for more detailed information about how you can own your Trump Studio on the 26th floor or to get educated on the NEW Vertical Las Vegas.

Trouble for Las Vegas High rise projects

Two multibillion-dollar Strip developments less than two miles apart could become victims of the tightening credit markets and rising construction costs.

Wall Street investment house Deutsche Bank last week notified developers of the Cosmopolitan that it will begin foreclosure proceedings on the mixed-use development being built in the shadow of MGM Mirage’s massive CityCenter complex.

A little north on the Strip, a potential $6 billion development modeled after the Plaza in New York City that was to be built on the site of the imploded New Frontier may be put on hold because of the current subprime crisis.
