CNBC TV Forbes.com BusinessWeek Financial Times Motley Fool Small Business Local Business U.S. News World News Business Sports Entertainment Tech / Science Weather Health Travel Blogs Etc. Local News Newsweek Multimedia News Video Most Popular NBC NEWS MSNBC TV Today Show Nightly News Meet the Press Dateline NBC MSNBC Home Business Real Estate Tiny Vegas home sits at center of housing craze His property in demand, former waiter raises asking price to $1.2 million Jae C. Hong / AP Manuel Corchuelo's 700-square-foot housein the Las Vegas neighborhood ofNaked City,purchased for $30,000 in 1978,is currently on the market for $1.2 million. The tract home is rapidly being surrounded by high-rise condominium projects. LAS VEGAS - Its front windows wish you "Feliz Navidad" in paint that won't wash off. The landscaping consists of four shriveling cacti and a patio piled with empty cat food boxes. Inside, it's 700 square feet of confirmed bachelor's clutter. And it can all be yours for $1.2 million - cash. There's perhaps no better evidence of the condo fever raging through Las Vegas' real estate market than the asking price on Manuel Corchuelo's home. Once considered deadlocked in the wasteland where the Las Vegas Strip fizzled into a decaying downtown, the World War II-era home is now happily nestled in the shadows of billions of dollars of new and proposed high-rise condominium projects. Corchuelo is sitting on much-coveted land. From his front lawn, Corchuelo likes to smile up at the cranes and listen to the clang of construction. "It's a good sound," he said. The former catering waiter and Colombian immigrant bought the home in 1978 for $30,000. He worked more than 20 years serving high rollers and conventioneers. He never married, saved some money and lost $15,000 of it on the stock market. Ten years ago, he started reading about investors' plans to build condominiums outside his door. He cut the clipping from the newspaper and put it in a three-ring binder. A few years later, he put his house on the market. He is still holding out for an acceptable offer. At last count, there were 93 luxury condominium projects, totaling 175 towers, proposed, planned or under construction in the Las Vegas valley in the second quarter of this year, according to a report released in September by Applied Analysis, a Las Vegas-based consulting firm. Though Brian Gordon, an analyst for the group, estimates that little more than one in three of the 93 will ever open its doors, 15 projects representing 10,000 units are expected to be completed by the end of next year. Developers tout the boom as the Manhattanization of Las Vegas, the move to "verticality" instead of sprawl. They promise an urban lifestyle, skyline views and celebrity neighbors. They court the young, rich and out of town. About 85 percent of condo buyers are non-Nevada residents or investors, Gordon said. Most of the projects are huddled on or around the Strip. "It's sort of like beach-front property. They're not making any more of it. Everybody that's within a stone's throw thinks their property is worth $20 million an acre," he said. The hype is fueling increases throughout the city. The cost of a vacant acre in the Las Vegas area has hit $601,600 - an 88 percent increase over last year. Corchuelo's home is one block off Las Vegas Boulevard and across the street from the future home of the Allure, a 41-story luxury complex under construction. Five years ago, his initial asking price of $350,000 attracted few offers. His agent dropped the listing. Corchuelo continued to collect articles about the market, filling three binders full of stories and notes handwritten in Spanish. He studied the moves of the city's real estate tycoons. "Even Trump makes mistakes," he said, citing a sale he says cost real estate mogul Donald Trump millions. "You have to know the area. Steve Wynn, he knew what he was doing. He had experience - 20 years building hotels. He knows everything moves in cycles." Corchuelo found an agent who, like him, is convinced they're riding an upturn that hasn't peaked. The pair has upped the asking price several times and are looking for a buyer who doesn't need financing.

House Rent
Housing - Ownership and Renting Resource Renting header Navigation TOPIC AREAS About The House HomeWorks News Rent Smart Publicaciones en Español Download a copy of the free Adobe Acrobat Reader to view and print information provided as PDF files. RENT SMART Background Rental property managers are often faced with a dilemma. On the one hand, they want to keep their units full, they want to meet their fair housing obligations and, as good citizens, they want to provide housing to people who need it. On the other hand, in order to stay in business they need to rent to people who are likely to pay their rent and maintain the property. One way to address this dilemma is with a community program that provides high-risk tenants with practical training to help them succeed as tenants. Rent Smart is a teaching guide designed to be the core of a community tenant education program. It was developed by staff from the University of Wisconsin-Extension in consultation with the Wisconsin Apartment Association, the Wisconsin Trade and Consumer Protection Division, the Tenant Resource Center, the Apartment Association of Southeast Wisconsin and other housing and tenant support groups. It was field tested in several locations before publication. What's Included? Rent Smart stresses information that can help participants succeed as tenants and avoid confrontations and legal hassles. The publication is intended for trainers and includes reproducible fact sheets and worksheets for participants as well as masters for overhead transparencies. A model certificate, designed to be awarded to participants who successfully complete the training, is also included. A key feature of Rent Smart is that it stresses learner participation. Each of the lessons is organized around a series of activities so that participants are actively involved in the learning. Materials are provided to help the instructor use the activities successfully. Local Partnership Needed In addition to the curriculum, a successful tenant education program requires a local partnership. Involvement of local rental housing providers in design and delivery of the local program is essential. When this is the case they may be willing to take greater risks with applicants who have completed the program and may even provide financial incentives such as a reduced security deposit. Involvement of local housing authorities and other tenant service providers is also essential. They have contacts with households who would benefit from the program, may be able to help design the program so it meets specific client needs and may have incentives they can provide participants. In one county an agency obtained a grant to provide a partial rent payment to participants who completed the program. In many communities, extension staff members have been available to assist in developing this partnership, developing the initial tenant education program and offering some of the instruction. The Lessons 1. Where Does the Money Go? - Determining monthly income and tracking expenses 2. Developing an Spending Plan - Planning spending and reducing expenses 3. Making the Most of Your Credit Report - Understanding credit reports and ways to improve credit. 4. Finding a Place to Live - Determining apartment needs and understanding search strategies. 5. Checking Out the Landlord and the Place - interviewing and checking up on landlords 6. The Rental Application Process - Completing a rental application and knowing what landlords look for. 7. Understanding Rental Agreements - Reading and understanding rental agreements. 8. Home Care: Who Is Responsible for What? Understanding when tenants are responsible for maintenance. 9. Home Care: Keeping It Clean and Safe - Understanding why cleaning is important and ways to do it more efficiently 10. Communicating With Your Landlord and Neighbors - Saying what you mean and resolving conflicts. 11. Moving On: Giving Notice, Security Deposits and Evictions - Ending a tenancy properly and understanding why it is important to do so.
