Home value in North Las Vegas: what your house is actually worth

Home value in North Las Vegas matters more than in most places, because for a lot of the sellers I meet here the number is not the end of the conversation. It is the beginning of the next one. Many North Las Vegas sellers are families who bought their first home here five to nine years ago and are now selling to buy the next one in Summerlin, Anthem, Southern Highlands or newer Henderson. What the current house is actually worth decides what the next house can be. A flattering number here does not only cost you six weeks on the market; it builds the next purchase on a foundation that does not hold.

The number I give you is the one I believe, weighed from the recent closed sales near you, what buyers in your range are actually choosing right now, and what your specific house does that the one down the street does not. An online estimate cannot see the kitchen, the age of the air conditioner, or the converted garage. I can, and the sales I used come with the number so you can check my work.

Send me the address, roughly when you are thinking about selling, where you are hoping to go next if you are buying, and anything I could not see from the street: a new roof, a remodel, a pool, a converted garage. Tell me if the home is in an association. Then I pull the closed sales near you, weight them for era, condition and what buyers in your range are choosing, and send you the number with the sales behind it, and with a first read on what it means for the next purchase.

If you decide to sell, the valuation is already step one of how I sell a home in North Las Vegas, and if you are buying too, it is step one of the sell-and-buy plan: sell first with a rent-back, buy first with a contingency, or bridge the gap, decided with this number on the table. If the house needs work first, here is what to fix and what to leave alone. And if the answer is that now is a bad time to sell your particular house, you will hear that too.
