FREE Down Payment!

Who doesn't want to purchase a home with no down payment?  Well it can happen here in Las Vegas. No it isn't a special program for revitalization areas or part of the city nobody wants to live in. 

This grant program will provide the home buyer with 4% of the purchase price to be used towards a down payment or closing costs.  This is a "rural" neighborhood grant, but many populated areas qualify including parts of Summerlin, Anthem, Inspirada, Mountains Edge, Silverado Ranch and Southern Highlands plus some older existing areas in Winchester. 

This program does not have income qualifications, anyone that qualifies for a VA or FHA mortgage can get this program if you are purchasing in the allowed zip code.  Yes, this is even good for brand new homes from the builder. So again, who doesn't want a free down payment? Contact Mike Kruse with VIP Realty Group for more information on your FREE Down Payment.

Buy or Sell Las Vegas Real Estate and Support A Great Cause

Here is a great opportunity to buy a new home or sell your existing home and support a great cause all at the same time.  Now through December 31, 2014 for every contract written and closed by February 13, 2015, I will donate $200 to Habitat for Humanity.  Habitat for Humanity is a national organization that helps hard working people with little income own a home.  In order to receive a home from Habitat for Humanity, the family must put in sweat equity into building the home along with other volunteers. 

I have a goal of donating $5,000.00 by February 13, 2015 and am excited to help such a great organization.  The money I donate will be to the local Las Vegas chapter of Habitat for Humanity so the money will stay local and help people within the Las Vegas community.  If you are looking to buy or sell Las Vegas real estate and support a great cause, start at my website www.lvhomesbymike.com.  Please share with your friends and family tthat also may be interested in buying or selling, I will not stop at $5,000 if there is still time left.

Las Vegas is Back and Booming!

It is no secret that new construction is back in full swing here in the Las Vegas area.  This past week the Linq project with the High Roller observation wheel opened.  New shopping areas are being completed.  The Summerlin mall that was frozen in early construction phase is now being completed and will open as "Downtown Summerlin" this fall with anchor stores Macy's, Dillard's and Nordstrom Rack. Another shopping center is going in just down the street at Hualapai and Sahara Ave.  Other commercial projects include SLS Resort at the site of the former Sahara Hotel and Wyndham Timeshare behind the Rio Hotel which was also stalled for many years.   With Wet & Wild opening last year and Cowabunga Bay water park opening in Henderson this year, it will be the first time that there are two operating water parks in the Las Vegas valley.  With all this new construction comes jobs which is what the are is in real need of.

The building is not limited to commercial.  New residential construction is sprouting up all over.  The largest project is Cadence a new master planned community in Henderson.  Summerlin continues to expand in the Mesa village off Hualapai and Russell Road and in the Northwest area Skye Canyon master planned community is expected to break ground later this year.

Multiple Offer are back in Las Vegas Real Estate

Multiple offers have made a return in Las Vegas real estate.  Over the past 3 weeks I have had 4 clients making offers on property and all four have experienced multiple offers.  While it seems to be limited to homes that are in exceptional condition, priced appropriately and homes in desirable locations.  In 3 of the 4 situations my clients did get their offer accepted however there were no concessions on the sellers behalf and my clients were willing to pay over list price in a couple of the situations. 

If you are thinking of selling, now is a great time.  With multiple offers happening, prices are sure to begin to rise again.  I can provide you the real value of your home at no cost to you.
