Rents are expected to increase seven-to-eight percent in 2019, while the vacancy rates are expected to stay below 5% due to slow deliveries. Buyer activity remains strong. At a recent multifamily housing conference, Las Vegas was on everyone’s buy-list. Buyers are diversifying with “Three Buckets of Money”. Q1 $460,182,000 One for “A” class properties, one for “Work Force Housing” and one for “Reposition Opportunities”. Despite this, transaction volume in the Las Vegas multifamily market 4,009 units is down 42.1%, year over year. We expect Q2 and Q3 volumes to rise with the successful disposition of a few notable portfolio sales.
