With the real estate market continuing to go down, have you thought of
renting for a while which will give you time to get to know the neighborhoods.
Then when you decide to buy, the lower price difference will have paid for
your rent. It sounds like you're moving to LV permanently, this strategy
gives you time to identify several properties & neighborhoods you like & make
offers accordingly. Since there are so many properties available now &
more in the pipeline, your chances are better of finding something that you'll
like for a long time. Happy hunting!
PS in addition to a lot of other data Zillow.com has a price history &
price estimates on the addresses you're interested in. I just checked a few
recently & was surprised to see that the price drops are still significant
so it may be a while before it gets to a plateau.

Hey all you VP people out there! I am making the big move to LV in March,
currently am on a 160 acre horse ranch on the border of Mexico and Arizona
(extreme SE Arizona) and am getting run off our ranch by the drug cartels
here, they want our ranch to stash and run their drug runners back to
Mexico. 8 dead dogs and 1 dead horse later, I am coming to the city that I
love. I will be boarding my horse and need to know a good area to live, I
was thinking a 55+ community since I am 59 and don't want the bullshit from
living next to 20-somethings. Any good, secure areas that are under
$1,000.00?? Hubby in Africa on a marine base working for a contractor, will
be gone for abother 18 months, so just me, my horse and my 60# dog.
Any help will be appreciated!A
Thanks,
Sue Matthews
Hidden Springs Ranch
