The Clark County Real Estate Market is strong and steady despite we are seeing the market transition in a direction of a normal market. First of all, the total market time is 41 days that is a strong number and the reason why is because the affluent homes are selling quickly which impacts the DOM days on market, in September of 2016 DOM was 42, indicating we are still in a hot market. On March 15th, 2017 from $304,000 -$379,000 there was 123 sales, today there was 206 sales and the median home price is up 9.2% very consistent to and the average sales price again is consistent at 9.7%.
Misinformation is on the rise in our local market we are not in a buyers market that is a myth and the reason why is we have 2.9 inventory, yes we have seen a rise with inventory in September of 2016 the inventory was 2.1, today 2.9 months to sell our current inventory, that is an incredible low number of inventory.
The motivation that has fueled our market in five years is Net Migration - which has slowed down slightly the State has estimated that figure down by 1,500 as we saw about 10,000 a year migrate since 2013 now it's 8,500.
New Construction has a huge amount of Residential permits at 123 Million Dollars up to Q3 which means a homeowner has been and currently is competing with Brand New Homes and a lot of them. Another key point is lot and land division is down 81% which could indicate less inventory in the near future.
The average married-couple earned $95,282 the most ever up 8% indicating the market is going to remain strong our local economy is great. Other residential indicators are 2.1% low vacancy rate and high rents for tenants in an apartment.
