We’re headed back into a “normal market”. Fewer homes are distressed (bank owned or short sales) and we are seeing more cases of multiple offers due to our limited housing supply. If you’re a buyer, it’s important to act quickly when viewing homes or making offers. If you’d like to receive information about new listings as soon as they hit the MLS, let us know and we can set that up for you.
The median price of area homes is continuing to increase and the amount of time that homes are staying on the market is decreasing. If you are planning to sell your home, now is a great time to list it. Give us a call at 775-453-0209 and we will create a customized market analysis for your property. You may be surprised by home much your home is worth.

Sales in December 2014 were up by 1.6% over 2013 and the average days on the market was the same. Homes are selling for nearly 13% more so sellers have a reason to celebrate. Current inventory is down 27%! That means there is a higher demand for available homes and we could see an even greater increase in home values.
30 year interest rates are down about .6 points since this time last year, which is great news for buyers. Make sure you’re pre-approved before heading out to look at homes.
