Las Vegas Rental Market Saturated with Condos

By Tony Sena • July 29th, 2009

The Las Vegas Rental Market is saturated with condos for rent which is causing the average rent to drop throughout the Las Vegas Valley.  The cause of the problem is all the banks and lenders who are continually lowering the prices of their bank owned condos for sale.  The drop in prices is bringing real estate investors from all over the country to Las Vegas to buy these condos that are priced as low as $25K.  Once they buy these great deals, they are placing them on the market for rent in order to cash flow.

Because they are purchasing these Las Vegas Condos for so cheap, they can afford to rent them below the average rent and still cash flow.  Unfortunately, this causes the rent for other comparable condos to fall making it difficult for other real estate investors who purchased their condo prior to the significant drop in prices to break even.  Since many are not even breaking even, they get behind in payments and before they know it, they are being foreclosed and this vicious cycle starts all over again.

I don’t anticipate the Las Vegas Rental Condo Market will get better any time soon as more and more condos are being foreclosed on and the banks and lenders continue to offer them at prices below market value.  If you have a condo in Las Vegas that is vacant and you need to find a tenant, I highly suggest you find a Las Vegas Property Manager to assist you in finding a qualified tenant.  With more and more properties becoming available for rent, you need to have your property seen by as many qualified tenants as possible and that is where a Property Manager can help.
