What a homebuyer can find at Las Vegas’ median price of $395K
Another month, another record-setting statistic that illustrates how hot Southern Nevada’s housing market really is.
The latest: an increase in the median price of house sales last month to a record $395,000, according to trade association Las Vegas Realtors.
That represents an increase of 2.6 percent, or $10,000, from the previous all-time high set in May, and a jump of 21.5 percent from June of last year.
