Get Pre-Approved

Before you start touring homes, get pre-approved with a lender. Pre-approval tells you exactly how much home you can afford and shows sellers you’re a serious buyer. In a competitive market like Las Vegas, offers without pre-approval letters are often passed over.

Your pre-approval also locks in your interest rate for a set period, protecting you from rate increases while you search. We work with several trusted Las Vegas lenders who can get you pre-approved quickly.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do I need for a down payment in Las Vegas?

Down payment requirements range from 0% for VA loans to 3% for conventional loans and 3.5% for FHA loans. The average Las Vegas buyer puts down between 5% and 20% depending on loan type and purchase price.

How long does it take to buy a home in Las Vegas?

From accepted offer to closing, the typical Las Vegas transaction takes 30 to 45 days. The home search itself varies — some buyers find their home in a week, others take several months.

Is it a good time to buy in Las Vegas?

Las Vegas continues to attract new residents from California, the Pacific Northwest, and other high-cost markets. Population growth, job creation, and limited land supply have supported steady price appreciation. Whether it’s the right time depends on your personal timeline and financial situation.

Do I need a buyer’s agent to buy new construction?

You don’t need one, but you should have one. Builder sales representatives work for the builder, and their goal is to maximize the builder’s profit. A buyer’s agent represents you, helps you negotiate upgrades and incentives, and reviews the purchase agreement for your protection — at no cost to you.
