Las Vegas housing rental rates spiking in Summerlin

Rental rates are increasing rapidly in certain areas of Las Vegas.  An average size three bedroom two bath home in the Summerlin area of Las Vegas can rent for as much as $1300-$1400 a month.  Less than two years ago this same property would have brought a rent of about $1150-$1200.  This is a substantial increase and the actual cost of homes in the area has not risen quite as quickly so there are a few opportunities for someone who would like a decent return on their money from a rental unit.  This likely will not last long though because the Summerlin area is in high demand and with the new Downtown Summerlin open and doing extremely well, all areas around the 215 and Sahara exit are becoming even more popular than in the past.  If you are looking to buy a 3 bedroom 2 bath home in this area of Las Vegas you still can find homes near the $200,000 range.  I do not think the opportunity to buy reasonable priced real estate near Downtown Summerlin will last long.  I also think the prices are about to spike in this area over the next year right along with the rental rates.  It is a much better option to buy a home for $220,000 and take ownership considering rent will be $1300 a month or more.
