June 1, 2005: 7:01 PM EDT More real estate • Pros and cons of interest-only mortgages • How much house can you afford? NEW YORK (MONEY Magazine) - Home prices across the country will likely keep rising over the next year. While many hot markets on both coasts could see a dramatic slowdown in their growth rates, the forecasters at housing research firm Case Shiller Weiss aren't predicting outright losers anywhere. Nationally, home values climbed 14 percent last year, or nearly double the 8 percent of 2003, when the bubble talk began in earnest. Prices are up 20 percent or more in some coastal cities, putting homes out of reach for many. In Los Angeles, for example, just 5 percent of homes sell at prices affordable to a median-income local family. Don't panic just yet, though. Any pop is unlikely to be nearly as severe as what can happen in the stock market. Local markets can drop 10 to 20 percent, but that's about as bad as it usually gets. And a crash is merely a paper loss as long as you don't need to move. Meanwhile, you get a roof over your head and, with a little luck, nice neighbors and good public schools too.

Las Vegas real estate

Las Vegas Real Estate Las Vegas Real Estate George Clooney, Rande Gerber and Preeminent Real Estate Developers to Transform Las Vegas Skyline With Las Ramblas Las Vegas real estate is on the rebound; Real Estate Prices Soaring Lake Las Vegas Resort Announces the Tom Fazio Course Rainbow Canyon Scheduled Ground in Early 2005 Lake Las Vegas Resort, a 3,592-acre residential, golf and resort community 17 miles from the Las Vegas Strip, announced plans to build Rainbow Canyon, a new 18-hole, par-71 golf course designed by Tom Fazio. Rainbow Canyon will be Lake Las Vegas Resort's fourth course and will join the resort's other award-winning golf courses, Reflection Bay Golf Club, SouthShore Golf Club, and The Falls Golf Club. Rainbow Canyon's construction is slated to break ground in the first quarter of 2005 with an expected opening in 2007. The new course will be nestled in the mountains on the northern shore of Lake Las Vegas, adjacent to the award-winning Reflection Bay Golf Club, and will stretch from the lake's shoreline to the Rainbow Garden Geological Preserve. It will measure more than 7,000 yards and will feature extraordinary canyon settings, holes along Lake Las Vegas' shoreline and elevation changes that showcase Lake Mead, the Rainbow Gardens and Lake Las Vegas Resort. "Rainbow Canyon is a unique golf course design due to the topography of the land," said R.F. Boeddeker, president and chairman, Transcontinental Properties, Inc., Lake Las Vegas Resort's master developer. "Using the lay of the land, Tom Fazio has created one of Lake Las Vegas Resort's most challenging courses that truly complements the resort's other golf clubs. The resort prides itself on offering golfers some of the finest play available in the country and the addition of the new course reinforces Lake Las Vegas Resort's position as a world-class golf destination." Fazio has been involved with the design and construction of golf courses throughout the United States, including Shadow Creek Golf Course in North Las Vegas. "It is a real pleasure to be able to return to one of my favorite cities to design a special new golf course," said Fazio. "I have always thought that some of the most creative people in the world practice their trade in Las Vegas, and I am honored that the ownership of Lake Las Vegas Resort has given me the opportunity to be involved in their wonderful development. "Like Lake Las Vegas Resort itself, Rainbow Canyon will be unique, spectacular, and of the highest quality. I get excited about all of our new projects, but I am already looking forward to teeing it up on this one. It's going to be awesome!" About Lake Las Vegas Resort Lake Las Vegas Resort is a premier residential and resort destination situated on a privately owned 320-acre lake located 17 miles from the Las Vegas Strip. Within the 3,592-acre master planned resort are exquisite residential offerings including custom home sites, waterfront and golf villas, resort condominiums and luxury executive homes.
