Anybody looking to rent or purchase a townhome in Las Vegas/Henderson?

I have a townhome up for sale, but would consider renting it out or on a 1 year lease to own. It is near the 95 and 215 freeway entrances, on the east part of town and in a very safe neighborhood. The home is 1296 square feet, 2 bedrooms, loft, balcony off of the master bedroom, 2 and a half bathrooms and it's a corner lot with plenty of parking and mountain views.

Please let me know if you're interested!

Forgot to add that is has a 2 car garage and a community pool and jacuzzi. It is also 2 stories with vaulted ceilings and an oversized tub in the master.

The house is also vacant right now so none of that furniture is present.

Really depends on the square footage.. The home I just bought with 2 bedrooms and a den at 1600 sq feet ran $325k. Some run more and other less.

Bump for the day crowd.

how much you looking to rent it out for?

AT a loss... I have to talk about the options with my broker, as we haven't fully talked about rent (since I am just now considering it). I would say somewhere around the $1200-$1300 a month range.

Cool, I am right down the street. I will send out a message to my freinds list and see if anyone is looking.

Awesome!
Who knows... We may be in the same community now. I moved into a new house just off of Gibson and Horizon Ridge.

Our new house has a much different kitchen... Would probably meet your expectations. hahha!

Isn't real estate on the downward slope there now? If so, I'd try and sell it rather than rent it.

Selling is my main goal with a lease to own option 2nd. The price I'm offering it for is almost $20k less than what they are selling for new....And I'm on a premium lot.

Best of luck with the sale Sherm

so it would probably piss you off if i told you that friends of mine bought a house near the airport back in 1996, 2 story, 5 bedroom, 2 car garage, and almost no backyard... for $195,000 and just sold that exact same house for $1.25 million. no joke.

man if i only f'n knew! haha. woulda coulda shoulda... oh well.

[Peaches]

How long have you been trying to sell it? If more than 60 days, you're asking too much. Though the rent sounds reasonable.

Not really... My parents purchased a home for $217k in 1999 with 2k sq feet, 3 bedrooms and a strip view... The same is going for 500-600k.

I would have done the same except I was 18, just out of HS and just starting in this biz. Since I graduated college I've been able to afford things I once wasn't able to. I'm blessed. Sure I could get more back then with what I pay now, but thats just how things go sometimes. Vegas is still VERY reasonably priced for a large city. It's a slump right now, but I'd bet that we'll see increases again in 3-5 years.

Peaches,
I've had it for sale a little over 60 days but have dropped it $13k in price since the original listing. There's no way to ask less unless I feel like eating my cash. In that case, I'd rather rent at a loss (or lease to own) and hold on for a few more years until the supply and demand evens out.

1 more bump ;]

Bumping for ya That's the problem a lot of people who bought at the peak are going to have. But with interest rates going up and people getting foreclosed on, you should be able to find a large pool of renters

good luck sherm.

1 more Open House on Saturday. Hopefully we get a bite.

The sad thing is that I bought the place well before the peak. The workers were delayed 9 months on getting the property up. I was beyond pissed, but what could we do.

I'd personally rather dump the house off at a loss than rent though. I've heard some horror stories. Lease to own is my second option and Rent is a distant 3rd.

If anybody wants the Open House info, please shoot me an email, and I'll get you directions/times/etc.

you could probably sell quick for your original asking price if you offer to carry a 20% second mtg...

[kristin]

I lived in Vegas four years ago now ... and when I first moved there real esate wasn't bad. Had I not been fresh out of college and poor, I would have invested in real estate. I watch it skyrocket over the two years I was there. It was nuts ...

That's put me in too far though... My original asking price was only for a 19k profit... a 20k 2nd would run 40k+... I'm not looking for a profit. Just to dump it.

[Kimo]
