With the majority of all of our sales being foreclosures or short sales,  few people consider new homes, and I keep telling them they are missing out.  I just attended a National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals, NAHREP for short, luncheon last week with a huge panel of brand new home builders.  It was very informative and gave everyone a clear indication of new building trends....here's the biggest trend: GREEN BUILDING.   Many of the builders are now constructing Enery Plus which is 30% more efficient than Energy Star.   Out here in the hot summers and chilly winters, having an energy efficient home is ideal.  The builders are ramping up for the expiration of the home buyers tax credit.  Many builders offer incentives to the buyers, such as closing costs, upgrade or option credits, and some even reduce the price.   New home builders require that your Realtor accompany you on your first visit, so make sure you let your agent know you'd like to visit a new home community otherwise the builder's employee will represent you AND the builder.  If you'd like to see new construction homes in Las Vegas, you can start your search below or call me toll free 1-866-589-1646.  I have relationships with a lot of builders around town, and can usually get the latest and greatest deals available.
