Irene 你的感觉是对的，下面是一篇比较悲观的文章。具体讨论见
http://www.city-data.com/forum/las-vegas/1490167-vegas-rental-market-trouble-saturation-point.html

我觉得实际情况不像文中描述这么悲观，但是租金整体在下降。到春夏看看会怎么样吧。

I bought a 3br/2ba/pool home in the Summerlin area of Las Vegas in Feb of 2011 for $134k, as an investment/rental. The first tenant skipped out after 2 months, stiffing me for $800. Next tenant only wanted a six month lease, but did pay their rent on time. They vacated on Dec. 31, and since then the home has been on the market---over one month at this point---without even ONE rental applicant. I just received the following from my property manager:

"We know you are concerned about how long it is taking to rent your property. We are very concerned as well because we do not want our customers unhappy and just like you we do not make any money on a vacant property...the single family home market has drastically slowed down because of the influx of all the new properties put on by the investors. I have been tracking this for some time now. Listed below are the records showing this trend.

Currently there are 6,614 properties on the market for rent.

-30 days ago in January alone there were 2,799 added and in January only 414 rented.

-60 days ago in December 1,389 properties were added and 969 were rented.

-90 days ago in November 1,019 were added and 479 properties were rented.

-120 days ago in October 591 were added and 2,219 were rented.

-160 days ago in September 396 were added and there were 3,158 properties that rented.

In short, what this means is that we are having much more properties being added (due to investors) every month and fewer properties are being rented
(due to the holiday months)." (end quote)

With the glut of rental properties on the market competing for tenants, we are now seeing rent wars with prices aggressively being dropped. I've had to reduce my asking price by almost $200 with the hope of getting a tenant and am still waiting for one as I go out of pocket to cover my mortgage and other costs for the second month in a row. In less than one year, my property has been on the market three times.

Right now its looking like Vegas is a BUST.

这是关键点。人在本地，动手能力强，买老房子合适，回报率高。房价低自然不愁租。

我们外地的就不能碰。我的那个管理公司干脆连90年后的房子都不接手。

嗯。希望天暖和了会好起来。

现在高质量的租客少，估计已经租房的也不大会挪窝，除非自己买房子了。

有个好租客省心很多，宁可价格低点

最近大量房子成交，卖房市场库存降低，房价上升，但是房租下降

willi兄，你这样还有一点不好就是管理成本太高。 一个房子不管多少钱，都是一样的精力去管理

我宁肯少挣钱，也不愿理费神去折腾。房产投资只是我分散投资的一部分。跟你专业做地主的又不一样了。

我觉得外地的玩不了破房子，利润全被管理和维修费用吃掉了。当然如果你很有经验的另说

对，都是个概率问题。

好区的房子租个省心的好房客概率高。

差区的，或者一般的老房子租个好房客概率低。但是如果你有本事把便宜房子租个好房客，那就是牛人了。

我这样的外地甩手掌柜做不来
