While most people certainly see the economic issues and the rates of foreclosures in areas like Las Vegas to be negative, there are those who are benefiting from these current events. Home Builders Research President Dennis Smith says, for instance, that the good news is that housing prices in Vegas have become quite affordable.

This affordability, alone, should increase home sales and boost the real estate market a bit. As Smith reports,”We’re still going to sell some new homes. We still have people retiring. Yuppies are retiring and moving here for tax reasons. Being in the Southwest, because of our better weather, there’s always going to be people moving here.”

In addition, companies and individuals who can afford to do so are helping to regenerate the real estate market by purchasing foreclosed real estate and other properties. Such companies, like Sightline Acquisition with Kirk Sanford, and others, help to rejuvenate the economy in Vegas and bring people back.

While Las Vegas has certainly been hit by the economic downturns in the last year, it is starting to show some recover. One example of this recovery is the new CityCenter project being built by MGM Mirage. With a total price of 9 billion dollars, CityCenter is employing 8 well known architects and many urban planners for their Las Vegas strip location.

One thing that makes CityCenter particularly unique is that it’s aiming to be the first and largest LEED certified project in Vegas. As part of CityCenter, there will be three residential buildings.

This economic and real estate rejuvenation is good news for Las Vegas real estate investors such as Sightline Acquisition with Kirk Sanford, the Prominent Realty Group and many others.
