I have been looking at the condo sales and shit. Wish I had enough to grab one but unlike the rest of vegas they aint cheap. Looks really nice tho.

Housing is a great buy right now in Vegas.........looking at purchasing a home there in the next 8-18 months, as I feel that is going to be the perfect time.

This is if I indeed move back home to Vegas.

I dont care for the really large places. I hate the Belagio. I play double deck blackjack and could play at less than $100 a hand on the weekend. I had a room at the Nugget and Belagio. Stayed one night in the Belagio and went back to the nugget. It was convenient while enjoying the night life on the strip though.

Oh definitely. New construction in Vegas still ain't cheap though. Recently foreclosed or construction during the early 2000's that has been on the market is great. Sometimes I just look at real estate there b/c it makes me feel better.

Get this.....

Bought my house there in 97 for 124,000.........sold it in 02 for 160,000.........in 05 it was going for 336,000...........and now it is selling for around 155,000 and similar houses are cheaper.

UNFREAKING REAL

Now for the best part about Vegas as compared to Florida........comparing the house above with the same house here in Florida.......

VEGAS

Taxes.....1300........Insurance......... 660..........Hoa..........60

FLORIDA

Taxes......4400........Insurance....3400 ..........Hoa........90-190

Wow. It's almost to good to pass up if you can relocate and make it your residence for 2 out of the next 5 years (making up to 250k in gains deductible).

It's a no-brainer, wish I could work from Vegas. Maybe I should take the NV Bar Exam.

........because.........

1. I love Vegas

2. I like to have a house that I own so that I can do what I want.........although I do enjoy renting and it is an option.

I have a friend that lives at Lake Las Vegas. It is amazing what he gets for the money out there right now. Places can be had for next to nothing considering what you get there.

Going back for March Madness and staying at the Golden Nugget. Love the Nugget. Don't care much for Bellagio myself.

I would love to move to Vegas but have too many debts here to pay. I hope to go down the road in like 4 years
