HE BOTTOM LINE As the data continues to roll in for the final months of 2014, it is becoming increasingly clear that market conditions are much more stable than they have been in
quite some time. The housing market roller coaster ride that began in the early 2000s is starting to show signs of normalcy more than a decade later. There are a number of factors that
could impact current market dynamics going forward, but we remain optimistic about the fundamentals of the economy and how that translates into overall housing demand. In addition to resale market stability, the new construction sector appears to be showing a more measured pace of sales and pricing. Pricing gains have moderated month-to-month, but supply levels
appear to be remaining in check. It is also worth noting that a few portions of the Las Vegas valley are dominating the new home front. With a total of 172 active subdivisions containing 728
floor plans in the urban valley, the southwest submarket accounts for over one in three (36.6 percent) new home communities. The northwest ranks second in terms of new housing options,
accounting for 22.1 percent of communities with 38 subdivisions hosting 146 models, and Henderson represents 18.6 percent of the market with 32 subdivisions. The point here is to note that
while broader market performances suggest stability, it is also important to understand dynamics within smaller, competitive market areas going forward.
NEW HOME CLOSINGS: The number of new home closings in November increased slightly to 574 from 532
in October. Compared to a year ago, the number of sales is up 35.4 percent. During the past 12 months however,
sales are down 15.8 percent. Through 11 months of the year, a total of 5,487 new homes closed, which was down
16.1 percent from the same period of the prior year.
NEW HOME PRICING: Closing prices in the new home segment continue to moderate based on overall demand
and the mix of properties sold. The median price in November was $295,480, which was up 2.6 percent from
October; values were up a more modest 0.6 percent when compared to a year ago. The average price per square
foot climbed to $139.20 as the reported size of homes in November was smaller.
