CA and NV - Real Estate Blog by Olivia McClellan, Agent

Developers continue to add incentives to entice buyers to stop by with their REALTOR to check out what they have to offer.

Here are some of the incentives offered:

1. No money down using their in-house lender *subject to qualification
2. No HOA payments for one year
3. No mortgage payments for one year *needs explaination
4. Cash for Closing Costs
5. Incredible upgrade packages
6. Money to buy down your loan rate

Some developers are combining these offers and others offer one or two but each is different so matching your needs to picking our the correct incentives is critical.

One of my clients closed escrow last week on a very nice property. He had choice of reducing the price of the home by $10k or using the $10 to buy down his rate. We ran the numbers and buying down his rate was the way to go.

If he used the $10k to reduce his purchase price he would save roughly $70 on his mortgage payment.

By using the $10k to buy down his interest rate from 7% to 5.5% he saved $500 a month on his mortgage payment which ended up as a whopping $30k in savings in a 5 year period.

The High Rise market in Las Vegas continues to grow despite cancelled projects.

The announcement of Las Rambles and the Hard Rock condos cancelling has many people scrambling over the demise of the Las Vegas high rise market and expecting a screeching halt to the Las Vegas market growth.

In the fact the truth is just exactly the opposite.

One May 12th 2006 The Hard Rock Residences cancelled plans to build their condo project allowing Morgan’s Hotel Group to purchase the Hard Rock casino and Hotel along with the 23 acres originally slated for condo/hotel development for $770 million in cash. This is hardly a story of the real estate market losing ground. Peter Morton originally built the Hard Rock for $80 million in 1994 and expanded in 1999 at the cost of another $100 million. The sale of the project and land for $770 million in cash is a realized appreciation of more than 200% over just 12 years. The net profit to Mr. Peter Morton was over $731 million. The 23 acres are being developed on every side and if the new owner, Morgans, decides not to develop the land, they have expressed the possibility of selling it so someone else who can develop.The same is true of The Related Las Vegas project, Las Ramblas. The cancellation of Las Ramblas does not signify a loss. Far from it, in fact. Related and its partners sold the 25-acre site for $202 million, more than twice what they paid just a year ago. The buyer, the Edge Group, plans to develop an upscale, boutique hotel-casino complex, adjacent to their other project currently in pre-construction sales, being co-developed with the W Hotel. The W Las Vegas condominium-hotel is a $2.5 billion, 4,000-unit project. The Edge Group now controls 50 acres in the Harmon Avenue area just off the Strip.

These cancelled projects are simply the nature of a growing market in which some developers will choose to cash in and let someone else do the building. The fact they’ve been able to cash in with such enormous gains is the true indicator of the land value and the long term value of the Las Vegas market.

With all the craze of investors, speculators, and double digit appreciation, the truth seems to get lost in the shuffle. The truth is Las Vegas is growing and with land costs rising, just as in any cosmopolitan city the development is by shear nature of land scarcity becoming more dense and ultimately vertical. Las Vegas continues to show a strong job market, historically low vacancy rates, and remarkable year after year tourism growth.
Not every high rise proposed will get built this year or ever, but remember New York City wasn’t built over night. The fact that only about 17 projects have currently broken ground with only about half of these actually coming to the market in 2006 keeps the market from being flooded with too much inventory. This will help to maintain competition and increase demand allowing owners to preserve property values. This is important in an economy were national data suggests that 39% of major housing markets are over-valued. Most cities included are markets that have had major increases in appreciation over the past few years but the population growth and the job markets are also taken into consideration. Equally important, is that Las Vegas despite the double digit appreciation as the hottest market in the country for the past few years is not included in the top twenty on this list, which includes cities in California, Arizona, and Florida.Las Vegas as a city beyond the Strip, is in its’ infancy and although we won’t meet the unrealistic expectations of double digit appreciation year after year, Las Vegas continues to be a solid investment, so if you’re interested in the high rise market for residency, second home, or investment, the potential to get into a property on the ground floor still exists.

All,

Loft Living allows you to have wide open spaces, high ceilings and an unique urban feel. Most large urban cities have loft projects that are extremely popular.

Las Vegas has many projects that are called loft-like but are not true urban style lofts.

The Green Valley Loft project does not have much data or images yet so I'm not sure what type of project it will be.

The area is fabulous and a true loft project would add to it.

If you would like pre-release info on this project email or call me ASAP.

Olivia

As many of you know the Urban Village project has been advertising for two years gathering names and email addresses.

Many of you may have received a letter, phone call or email from the Blue Tipping Group. This company has been giving first crack at sales at everyone on their lists they have been generating via the Web for over two years. The Blue Tipping Group is a marketing company and by signing a reservation with them you are contracting to use them as your Real Estate representation in most cases without your knowledge.

The process is as follows:

1. You will be asked to make a reservation to attend a private preview.
2. At that preview you will be asked to leave a $5,000 deposit to be on a list that potentially gives you the right purchase a unit.
3. At this presentation, you do not choose a unit nor is pricing revealed.

Centex the developers of Urban Village are ramping up their sales staff and will be selling direct to the public within 30 days. Wait to purchase. The prices when released will be the same.

Buy via your personal REALTOR who is there to protect your interests by reviewing your contract and watching your back. The contracts that most luxury condos developers are using have been customized to protect them so BE CAREFUL.

Thanks

All,

The Las Vegas High Rise market is tightening up with a few projects folding. This means the developments that in already building are in demand. Investors flocking to Vegas gambled and some ended up choosing the wrong project based on weak marketing pitch buying direct from the developer without utilizing a REALTOR. Many of these Investors ended up with nothing but a lawsuit.

The High Rise Report was created to allow savvy Investors to review information before they hit town so they can narrow the projects they are interested and make sure they are able to do their due diligence.
You can purchase The High Rise Report on http://www.thehighrisereport.com/ for $29.99.

Contact me today to find out about silent release of units from a mid-rise on the Strip. This property was sold out but has a few units that have come availalbe.

These units are large residental condos not a condo hotel with parking availalbe along with a host of very high end amenites.

Thursday, Peter Morton revealed the planned $1 billion condo-hotel expansion of the Hard Rock Hotel has been postponed. Buyers are being offered a refund on their deposits.

The sales center closed and all sales staff have been let go for the Bungalows, Flats and Residences.

Morton said he has received offers to buy the Hard Rock. The expansion on 24 acres behind the hotel, now the site of an apartment complex, would be included in that transaction.

Industry experts estimate the Hard Rock to be worth $750 million to $900 million, including the $86 million apartment property.

The project, designed by architect Chad Oppenheim of Miami with Las Vegas-based Marnell Corrao as the general contractor, was supposed to break ground in August.

This project seems on the fringe but what if the Hard Rock dosent sell?

"We are still moving going forward with Las Ramblas, and we hope to make some exciting announcements in the near future," said Marty Burger, president of Related's local office. "We will soon announce a hotel operator that will change the project's entire complexion."

Las Ramblas is a planned $3 billion hotel-condo-casino along Harmon Avenue, just west of the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. Plans call for 4,400 hotel, condo and condo-hotel units in 11 high-rise buildings.

Let's hope Related stays committed to this project after bailing on the 61 Acre project and ICON.

High-rise construction finally hits Harmon Avenue east of the Strip this morning with groundbreaking for Planet Hollywood Towers by Westgate, a $750 million condominium and timeshare project.

Planet Hollywood Towers will be located on the corner of Harmon Avenue and Audrey Lane and connected to the Planet Hollywood resort complex on the Strip, which has 12 restaurants, luxury resort amenities and a full-service shopping mall with more than 140 stores.

The timeshare and condominium-hotel project will include more than 1,250 units ranging in size from one to four bedrooms, increasing the resort's hotel room inventory by 2,800 rooms to 5,500.

The top four stories will include 28 luxury condominiums ranging in size from 4,000 square feet to 10,000 square feet with prices starting at $4 million.

Lets see how Planet Hollywood spins the "Wow and Celebrity Factor" to sell this project.

This 61-acre tract is the largest single piece of undeveloped land in downtown Las Vegas. It is located adjacent to the World Market Center and the Las Vegas Premium Outlets.
“With Dan’s expertise and the city taking on the role of master developer of the project, we will ensure that our vision for this project comes to fruition,” said Ward 5 Councilman Lawrence Weekly, who represents the area where the 61 acre project is located. “It is our hope that we are leaving a legacy for future generations with the long-term development of this property as an urban village.”

Current plans call for the following to be developed at this site:

• 350,000-square-foot performing arts center.
• 55,000-square-foot Lou Ruvo Alzhemier’s Institute, designed by highly heralded architect Frank Gehry.

The Related Cos. officially announced the demise of Icon, a twin-tower luxury condo project on Convention Center Drive.

Related insists that its $3.5 billion Las Ramblas Development inside the Harmon Corridor is moving forward. ICON buyers are rumored being sent to Las Ramblas to secure units.

The recent cancellation of Ivana / Liberty Tower and Icon has turned Vegas has shaken the market a bit. Everyone knew some of the projects would not fly but no one new which ones to bet on. There are key factors to look at when a project is announced. Developer, Branding and Financing are key indicators on the project getting built.

Six months ago, there were 50,000 to 70,000 units planned or ready to begin construction in Las Vegas, raising concerns about over supply. The reality is Vegas is an International Brand and is as strong as ever. If every project was succcessful, in time they would sell and continue to allow Las Vegas's transformation into a World-Class Metropolitan City. "The major factors include a decrease in market high-rise sales, lawsuits and rising construction costs, " Related said in a statement.

As the market continues to shakeout the weak from the strong, we see nature’s survival of the fittest taking over. Over the next few months we will see which projects leave the nest and fly.

Las Vegas-- Societe Generale Corporate & Investment Banking (part of Societe Generale Group and acting as Sole Lead Arranger & Book-runner), is leading a syndicate of banks funding a $232.5 million pre-development credit facility for the W Las Vegas Hotel, Casino & Residences, representing a resounding vote of confidence in the project and its ability to lead the new wave of significant projects planned for Las Vegas.

One Queensridge Place, the first Summerlin area high rise condo to go up in Las Vegas, has completed $250 million in financing through HSBC Bank, said Frank Pankratz, president of Executive Home Builders, one of the development partners.

Queensridge is located across from the Suncoast Casino on Rampart and is making speedy progress with two buildings heading skyward.

Prices for Queensridge start at 1 million.

The Las Vegas High Rise Market is truely in its infancy.

The strongest players have been in the market for 5 years and their current projects are steaming ahead. Turnberry Towers are close to being 4 stories strong and truely have set the bar for all other to reach for.

The causualties thus far have been due to lack of experience and dollars and cents. Construction costs and lack of labor are the biggest factors plaguing current projects on deck.

Related Cos. is one of the largest developers in the United States. They have projects running in all of the major cities including Las Vegas. Three weeks ago they pulled out of Union Park, the 61 acre parcel of land Mayor Goodman is promoting full time. Over this weekend, Related pulled the plug on ICON Towers due to contruction costs.

What kind of message does that send to the market?

Most saavy investors are waiting to see.

Thomas Greenough, AKA Tommy Rocker, won approval Wednesday to build a 46-story condominium tower south of Flamingo Road on Dean Martin Drive, formerly Industrial Road.

As of today, the project has no specific name and is planned on being built on 1 acre of land.

More to come.

The Related Cos. officially pulled the plug Friday on Icon a high rise luxury condo project on Convention Center Drive.

Related insists that its $3.5 billion Las Ramblas project on Harmon Avenue is still proceeding and that developers are negotiating with major hotel partners. The sales staff for Icon has been let go and deposits are being refunded, though some buyers are being steered from Icon to Las Ramblas.

Related recently pulled out of the Union Park project that Mayor Goodman is promoting.

Las Ramblas also has had rumblings over the last week as no making the cut.

There are also other high rise projects that have delayed breaking grown and financing is currently under wraps.

Rumors are flying around the Web about Las Ramblas, George Clooney and Partners stake in Las Vegas High Rise Condo Hotel property slated for the Harmon Corridor.

In the New York Post it reads:

December 21, 2005 -- IT doesn't look like George Clooney is going to make that big financial score in Las Vegas as he did in "Ocean's Eleven." Sources tell The Post's Braden Keil that his much-ballyhooed, $3 billion Las Ramblas condominium and entertainment project on 25 acres in Sin City is in trouble and may be scrapped. Clooney and partners, who include Rande Gerber and Miami builder Jorge Perez, made big news last summer when the plan was announced, with the Hollywood heartthrob saying he'd donate his share of profits to charity. But the Vegas housing market is already experiencing a condo construction glut. Calls to the Related Cos., developer of the complex, were not returned.

The Ivana Las Vegas Tower, originally called The Summit, is listed for sale on a real estate Web site for $49 million and has reportedly stopped selling units.

This project seemed doomed from the start locking on to Ivana Trump apparently due to her name. Ivana's ad campaign was "Size Matters" taking shots at the Ivana Tower was slightly taller than her ex-husband Billionare Donald Trump.

Trump Towers has broken ground due to its strong brand name "Trump" and is moving forward quickly.

Ivana marks another downed project slated for the famous Las Vegas Strip. The projects that are going to get built are the ones with strong brand names as well as experienced developers.

Construction is set to commence in the first quarter of 2006 by Tutor-Saliba-Perini.

It is estimated that another 4,100 apartment units are in the process being converted, while another 2,900 are n the planning stages, with estimates of over 15,000 ultimately planned. These condo conversion projects meet the price range needs of first time home buyers, lower incomes, and investors.

Currently, over 23 condo conversions are in planning or sales stages, with many in final sales stages. These conversions have seen a dramatic price increase in the first half of the year. In January 2005, the average price for a two bedroom condo was about $150,000. As of September 2005, the median sales price was over $208,000, on average selling for over $200 a square foot, but with the median home prices reaching just almost $300,000, for the same month, a condo has now become an affordable entry level option.

The condo conversion market is also creating an appealing rental market for investors. As 7,000 to 15,000 rental units are converted, this is having a positive impact the rental prices. As the demand of new residents, many of whom are being relocated and can afford higher rents, more Class-A apartments are being built but since June 2005 only 355 apartments units were built to meet this demand. Rents are already starting to increase as the supply diminishes with the condo conversions and the demand continues with the influx of new residents and businesses.

The Las Vegas Condo Market is still on fire. Home sales may have slowed but the under $250k price point is still the hottest market for buyers and investors.

"There are a number of projects that have recently started selling in Las Vegas that I recommend due to their location and amenities" McClellan said.

The fact is that these two new locations are strong because of two factors.

The first is location, location, location. You can find a better area to live in with access to the strip, 215 or the 15.

Second is amenities delivered by the community. The outdoor activity list is diverse and unlike any other property in Vegas.

The influx of people causes new jobs, more revenue for the city and companies relocating to Las Vegas to take advantage of its Business Friendly Climate. There are new hospitals, large companies and new commercial construction popping up daily, so sit back and watch Las Vegas grow up into a Metropolitan City before you eyes.

We'll it was an exciting weekend in Las Vegas. I had a couple clients in town and we visited various high rise properties.

Las Rambles is very high end with the upscale vision of bringing back the las vegas nostalgia of yester year with a inimate casion that will have a dress code and a vegas version of rodeo drive...with botique and high end shopping .....available are residential and condo/hotels and it's still in first pha e pricing .....if you're looking for a early phase pre construction luxury investment this may be the property for you.

ICON:
This is going to be one of the tallest properties on the strip and its design is fatalistic

Hard Rock Residences:
If you have been to the Hard Rock you know the quality of this property and the names it brings to mind. The Condotel project is no different. It’s a who’s who of the Rock n Roll - Celebrity world. Can you say 4,000 people waiting list? f you're interested in this property dispite the wait list, I can work with you to get a studio residence with strip views

Palms Place
Also sold out and one of the most popular projects in Las Vegas. This project is slated to have a playboy club as well as a full recording studio. The Palms is Vegas.

Most of the development projects in Vegas are going to contract so you never know when a unit may fall out.

Also on a side note:
Our first exposure to Wynn Las Vegas. The casino layout was different and there was only one bar that we found so getting a drink was tough. We had dinner at The Country Club and it was fantastic. The bone in Rib eye was out of this world.

See you in Vegas
