More than 41% of homes sold within two weeks of going on the market, up from 28.3% last year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meanwhile, the unemployment rate in the Las Vegas area\u2014where much of the economy <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/res.cloudinary.com\/simpleview\/image\/upload\/v1549581727\/clients\/lasvegas\/EIS_Tourism_Dependence_Jan_2019_FINAL_e332cdc1-7e25-4179-b4e9-63e1890adefe.pdf\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">depends on the tourism industry<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, heavily impacted by the coronavirus pandemic\u2014stood at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fred.stlouisfed.org\/series\/LASV832URN\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">16.4% in July<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (the most recent data available). That\u2019s an improvement from 30% in April, but higher than the 10.2% national rate posted in July. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cA lot of sellers are asking me the same question: How is my neighbor\u2019s house going under contract in two days, but I pick up the local newspaper and it\u2019s all doom and gloom for the economy?\u201d said Las Vegas Redfin agent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/real-estate-agents\/shay-stein\">Shay Stein<\/a>. \u201cIt\u2019s because there\u2019s so much more demand than supply, driven by two groups:\u00a0 People coming from high-priced places like California, Hawaii and New York who can suddenly work from home, and locals whose needs have changed due to the pandemic.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Remote workers are moving in from expensive states like California and New York<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the second quarter of 2020, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/blog\/q2-2020-housing-migration-trends\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">46.3% of Redfin.com users<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> searching for homes in the Las Vegas area were from out of state, making it the third most popular destination for people looking to move to a different part of the country. Las Vegas is perennially popular for people moving away from expensive parts of the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just over 35% of out-of-state searches in the second quarter came from Los Angeles, making it the most popular origin for potential homebuyers looking to move to Las Vegas from out of state. Four other costly West Coast metros round out the top five: The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/17151\/CA\/San-Francisco\">San Francisco<\/a> Bay Area (12.2%), <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/30772\/OR\/Portland\">Portland, OR<\/a> (7.7%), <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/16163\/WA\/Seattle\">Seattle<\/a> (6.6%) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/16904\/CA\/San-Diego\">San Diego<\/a> (4.6%).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Las Vegas Redfin agent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/real-estate-agents\/patrick-thomas\">Patrick Thomas<\/a> said more than half of his clients so far this year have relocated to the area from other states, including California, Washington, New Jersey and Arizona. \u201cWhile Las Vegas has suffered from an employment standpoint,\u00a0 the pandemic has solidified people\u2019s decisions to leave expensive urban areas,\u201d Thomas said. \u201cI helped a New York couple who sold their home for $1.9 million, bought a larger home here for $475,000 and pocketed the remaining equity. Plus, their property taxes went from $23,000 per year to $2,500.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/real-estate-agents\/laura-salgues\">Laura Salgues<\/a>, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/city\/11203\/CA\/Los-Angeles\">Los Angeles<\/a> Redfin agent, is helping a couple sell their coastal home to move to Las Vegas. \u201cThey\u2019re under contract to buy a $1.2 million home in a high-end gated community in a Las Vegas suburb and selling their $4 million house in Los Angeles because they\u2019re both able to work from home,\u201d Salgues said. \u201cThe Las Vegas property is bigger and they\u2019re able to save a big chunk of their income while living in a much more affordable area.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Local house hunters motivated by more space, low mortgage rates<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Las Vegas Redfin agents agree that while migrants are propping up the housing market, there is a subset of locals who are buying and selling homes, made up mostly of people with changing needs and those working in industries such as tech, healthcare and education.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe pandemic has been a driving force for the locals who are buying and selling homes,\u201d Stein said. \u201cPeople who are working remotely need offices to work from home, and some of them need more space for children to do schoolwork or additional bedrooms for grandparents moving in with adult children. I\u2019ve also seen several people take early retirement and buy their dream \u2018forever\u2019 home.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/real-estate-agents\/marco-dipasqualucci\">Marco Di Pasqualucci<\/a>, another Redfin agent in Las Vegas, said that while about 80% of his homebuying clients are coming from a different state, he is working with locals who bought homes in Las Vegas when the market was cool and have built up enough equity to purchase a bigger property, and others who have lost their jobs are moving to a smaller, less expensive home. Low mortgage rates are motivating both groups\u00a0 to buy sooner rather than later.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Looking ahead: Changes in eviction policies and migration could impact the Las Vegas housing market, politics<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stein said the expiration of the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2020\/09\/02\/success\/cdc-control-eviction-moratorium\/index.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">eviction moratorium<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, scheduled for the end of the year, could bring more inventory in 2021, which would help reverse the current double-digit supply decline. \u201cOnce the moratorium ends, the market may change as landlords who have a bad taste in their mouth put their properties up for sale,\u201d Stein said. \u201cI\u2019ve spoken to several investors who can\u2019t sell right now because they have tenant-occupied properties, and some of those tenants aren\u2019t paying. They\u2019ll sell as soon as they can, and that push could be the next big thing that changes supply and demand.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thomas said he believes the pandemic-driven migration from highly populated, expensive urban areas could change the economy and political makeup of Nevada, which is <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reviewjournal.com\/news\/politics-and-government\/nevada\/nevada-key-to-politics-nationwide-in-2020-1922519\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">somewhat of a swing state<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0 \u201cThe number of people moving into the area will diversify the employment base so it\u2019s less dependent on tourism,\u201d he said. \u201cThe wave of migration could also impact the area\u2019s politics. Some of the people coming from big coastal cities are fleeing liberal business and tax policies for a place more in line with their views, and some are strict Democrats who are moving for other reasons. It will be interesting to see if it results in a more conservative or a more liberal Nevada.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Las Vegas pending home sales are picking up as supply remains tight<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Home sales in Las Vegas were down 11.9% from last year in August, an improvement from the low in May (a 50.5% year-over-year drop). Pending home sales, a more current indicator, were up 12.8%, up from the low in April (a 37.2% year-over-year decline).\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-70252\" src=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Home-Sales-Las-Vegas.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Home-Sales-Las-Vegas.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Home-Sales-Las-Vegas-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Home-Sales-Las-Vegas-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Home-Sales-Las-Vegas-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The number of homes for sale fell 18.7% year over year in August.
