Preconstruction High Rise Condo Investment Options
2007-02-21 00:04:00
So here's the dilemma: you've all heard about how much money people are making buying preconstruction high rise condos, watching their units appreciate during buildout, and parlaying that money into another preconstruction deal thereby multiplying profits exponentially. BUT, not everyone has the available cash to get in on these properties due to downpayment requirements. Plus, in most cases (and just about every case in Las Vegas), you're REQUIRED to close on the deal, which requires - of course - more money. The small time investor often gets shut out of the picture, watching the rich get richer and saying things like "If only I had the money to get into that project, I'd make a fortune". Or "it takes money to make money". We'll I'm here to tell you that you CAN invest in preconstruction in a manner that's not only affordable to the small time investor, but in many cases with actually LESS RISK than the big-time players. How? By using syndicate groups. Investment syndicates...

More Good News for Downtown Las Vegas High Rise Condos
2007-02-15 17:04:00
Union Park - Remember the name. This $6 billion dollar development will soon be breathing new life into the downtown Las Vegas area, and when the 61-acre development is complete, it'll only make downtown Las Vegas high rise condos more attractive.Just as Project CityCenter is transforming the Las Vegas Strip, Union Park - which is expected to be built out completely by 2012 - will be the project that'll reshape Las Vegas' downtown with a $250 million dollar performing arts center, the World Jewelry Center, a medical research center, 50-story towers, and storefront shops.This is a high profile project with a very high likelihood of success. With so many people calling me or emailing me with comments such as "Las Vegas high rises are so expensive" and "are there any good deals out there on condo projects", I will reiterate that downtown is where the deals are at. Buy your high rise now and watch as projects such as Union Park not only rise from the ground, but raise your condo's w...

Can Las Vegas Demand Absorb High Rise Condo Project Supply?
2007-02-08 00:37:00
That's the $64,000 (and more) question. While doomsayers predict the worst for the Las Vegas high rise condo marketplace, one must only point to the unique nature of Las Vegas to realize the city is completely isolated from national trends.Here's fact number one: More and more companies are coming to Las Vegas for their trade shows and corporate shindigs. Convention Center halls are booked months in advance with no slowdown in sight. And that will NEVER change - Vegas is becoming a town more reliant on business and entertainment than it is on gambling. Hard to believe, but it's true.Fact number two: The average price per acre of land that sold in the Las Vegas area actually rose 25 percent in 2006. What's with all this talk about plummetting land values? Is the nationwide "housing bubble" Las Vegas' version of Y2K, when everyone feared disaster thanks to the media's overblown coverage of a non-issue?Fact number three: According to Metrostudy's Las Vegas division, Las Vegas ad...

World Market Center Continues to Make Juhl Las Vegas Condos Very Attractive
2007-01-31 19:22:00
Yesterday, we spoke of financing furniture for your Las Vegas high rise condo. And speaking of furniture, you can't say enough about the success of downtown Las Vegas' booming World Market Center, which is quickly becoming the center of the world's furniture industry. With the Winter Las Vegas Trade Market trade show being in town this week, some 62,000 people will descend upon the downtown site in what I'm sure will be another successful event for the 18-month old destination in their quest to shift the nation's furniture center from North Carolina to Las Vegas. And it only gets better as the Center developers continue to move forward on their $3 billion trade center, scheduled for total completion at the end of 2013. The steel frame of the third phase of the eight-building project started rising Tuesday and construction on the fourth building will begin by the end of the year.Will they succeed? I'm betting yes. The developers are spending a ton of money to make this work. Sp...

Construction on One Las Vegas High Rise Condos Reaches Tower Top
2007-01-24 23:13:00
While a great many Las Vegas high rise condo projects are "in your face" with their advertising and marketing efforts, you never really hear too much about the One Las Vegas project, unless it's good news, in which case we hear about them often.In fact, the South Strip project is fully financed and has reached another construction milestone in that they just topped off construction on their 20-story, 182-unit first tower, which is scheduled for completion late this year. They're also up to the 16th floor on Tower II, which will contain another 179 condo units. Here's a project that's quietly getting things done and providing an excellent high rise condo product for their smart purchasers.When the One Las Vegas project is fully completed, 5 towers and over 1,000 condo units will be built on the 20-acre site at a cost of approximately $142 million dollars.With prices starting in the high $200Ks for an 830 square foot 1-bedroom condo, One Las Vegas seems to be the Rodney Dangerfiel...

If you haven't done so already, register to tour the models of MGM Mirage's $7 billion dollar Project CityCent er. You'll be amazed at the scope of this project. In fact, yesterday's article by Joe Schoenmann in the Las Vegas Sun states the "Magnitude of the City Center plan is enough to leave you speechless".

Only two weeks after public sales began, CityCenter already has reservations for 1,500 of its 2,700 available condominiums.The project hopes to receive LEED certification (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) by featuring environmentally friendly design and construction, including energy-efficient glass in the hotel rooms, carpeting made from recycled materials, and construction is progressing with reused material that came from the original torn down casino.How...

Verge Mid-Rise Condos Betting on Downtown Las Vegas Success
2007-01-18 20:48:00
I just got word of the newest Las Vegas downtown condo project, the Verge. They're completely new - so much so that they're still working on their marketing and sales material. But before they go public with their product, let me tell you this: Studio units will be available starting at only $149,900!Now I know what you're thinking (I had the same thought): Wow, that's cheap - that's just a marketing ploy. They'll sell one unit for that amount and bump the price to the $350K's (now where did I hear that one?...)However, what makes me think this actually may be a good project is that I personally know a few people on the Verge Team, and the company marketing this project has been associated with quality projects here in town in the past, including the likes of the Cosmo high rise condo hotel project.It's way too early for any specific details, but if you'd like to provide me with your full name, address (city/state/zip), phone number, and email address, I'll register you fo...

High Tax Liability? "GO Zone" Properties Make Excellent Alternative to Las
2007-01-12 00:19:00
Suprisingly enough, not all people want to own a Las Vegas high rise condo. Believe it or not, some people don't even LIKE Las Vegas. Well, here's a post dedicated just to them!Awhile back, I started doing some research into tax free investments as part of some due diligence for my 1031 exchange clients and stumbled across something known as the "GO Zone". The "GO Zone" area is comprised of specific locations within Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama. ("GO" as in "Gulf Opportunity"). On December 21st, 2005, President Bush signed H.R. 4440, commonly known as the Gulf Opportunity Zone Act of 2005. As a result of the devastation attributed to Hurricane Katrina, this act provides investors and developers with tremendous tax incentives, including up to 50% bonus depreciation allowing you to literally write off hundreds of thousands of dollars, while still turning profits on the property.It's taken some time, but I've created a network of real estate brokers, agents, lawyers, account...

MGM Grand's City Center - It's Time!
2007-01-08 21:45:00
The time has finally come for the mother of all Las Vegas high rise condo projects, MGM Grand 's Project City Cent er. My office has just achieved "preferred broker" status with this project and can now take reservations from interested purchasers. More than 1,200 people have already paid between $10,000 and $25,000 to reserve condo and condo hotel units at the $7 billion project, and now's your turn if you're interested in getting in on the hottest property Las Vegas has EVER seen!Regular readers of this blog already know how bullish I am about anything MGM does, so it shouldn't be surprising when I tell you reservations on this project will sell out quickly. What also shouldn't be surprising is that CityCenter is not cheap - however, if you have the money and are looking to own a piece of a property that will no doubt transform the entire area of the strip by the Bellagio, your CityCenter unit will make an excellent long-term investment, priced from $500,000 and up. While the r...

Columbia Sussex Plans High Rise Condo Hotel with Newly Owned Tropicana Reso
2007-01-04 22:33:00
It's been said one of the most valuable pieces of real estate in Las Vegas is the 34-acre corner of Tropicana and Las Vegas Boulevard. Kentucky based Columbia Sussex Corp. obviously agrees as they just became the new owners of the Tropicana Resort - and immediately announced plans to demolish and remodel the current 1,880-room icon over the next two years. Company officials said they would spend $2 billion to remodel the Tropicana to include 9,276 hotel rooms, 948 condo-hotel units, 85,460 square feet of casino room, 644,320 square feet of convention and meeting space; and 273,292 square feet of a retail space.With the Residences just about all complete, and MGM's Project City Center under construction practically across the street, that little corner of town is getting more valuable by the minute and perhaps one day, we'll be referring to this section of town as "condo-hotel village". It's way too early for any significant details with the Trop. However, make sure your next tri...

Get a Steep Discount on a Panorama Las Vegas High Rise Condo Unit
2006-12-20 00:54:00
Here's your chance to own a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom plus office condo (with an extra parking space and additional storage space) in Tower 3 of the Panorama Towers, due to be completed in 2008.What makes this such a great deal? For starters, the unit has dramatically appreciated since the current owner signed their reservation contract in February of 2005 and purchase contract in September 2005.Now this is, as they say, where the plot thickens: you can buy this unit TODAY for the same amount as the purchase contract price of Feb. 2005! That price is approximately $850K and Panorama is currently selling comparable condos for close to $1.2 million.So why would an owner leave all that profit on the table? Serious inquiries will get that answer. But lest you be skeptical, Panorama Towers will act as the intermediary themselves for this purchase transaction - so you'll have to come up with 20% of the purchase price of $850,000 ($170k) paid directly to Panorama and you will receive 100% ow...

Meme Tagged by T. Longo
2006-12-18 17:37:00
I recently was Meme tagged by Tony Long o, the owner of perhaps the best nationwide condo resource, the Condo Domain Blog. What is a meme? Good question!, since I had no idea myself until I got tagged. Now I know a meme (rhymes with "dream") is a catch phrase or contagious idea, that spreads virally in a culture. In other words the idea is spread from one person to another by word of mouth or, in this case, via blogs in writing. Meme-ing allows you to find out more info on the many people that make the blogisphere such an interesting phenomena. Your only requirement is to tell the world 5 things they probably don't know about you, so here goes:1) In January, I'll have reached my 3-year anniversary as a Las Vegas resident. On my first day as a Vegas "local", I hit a royal flush on video poker (and on my first spin at that!) and haven't won anything else since. 2) I'll be traveling on my birthday (Feb. 26th) to South Africa in Johannesburg to go on Safari, followed by 4 days on the...

Has Starwood Pulled out of W Las Vegas High Rise Condo Hotel Project?
2006-12-15 19:49:00
Edge Resorts, developer of the W Las Vegas on Harmon Avenue, has hired Credit Suisse Group of New York to explore "strategic partnerships" in the $1.7 billion mixed-use project. And why? Because it's widely rumored that Star wood Hotel s has pulled out of the project. If true (and judging from the actions of Edge Resorts it certainly seems to be the case), this signifies a major obstacle to the viability of the W Hotel high rise condo project in Las Vegas.And while the 46-acre property supposedly is not for sale, Edge Resorts claim they have plenty of investors interested in purchasing the land, including lodging operators, private equity partners, financial sponsors and real estate developers. Of course they all go unnamed... either way, it's a bad sign for the fans of the "W". With Strip land going for $8 million to $10 million an acre, Edge Resorts is still in an enviable position. Condo unit holders are not. The "W" is no longer taking unit specific reservations for condos after...
