February marks the true start of the 2026 spring real estate season in Las Vegas. The latest data from Huntington & Ellis shows a market gaining momentum, with buyer activity increasing while inventory remains elevated — creating a more balanced environment.
Key Takeaways – February 2026
-
Median Home Price: $435,000 (+1.15% month-over-month, slightly up year-over-year)
-
Single-Family Median Price: $481,995 (-0.6% year-over-year)
-
Condo Median Price: $285,000 (-5.9% year-over-year)
-
Pending Sales: Over 2,900 homes (+12% month-over-month)
-
Total Inventory: 9,648 homes (+5% year-over-year)
Buyer demand is clearly returning. Contracts increased in February, led by single-family homes, signaling renewed confidence as we move into the busiest time of the year.
At the same time, inventory remains higher than last year. That shift is giving buyers more options and more negotiating power — a noticeable change from the highly competitive conditions of recent years.
A Market Moving Toward Balance
The Las Vegas housing market is not declining — it is stabilizing.
Prices are holding steady despite increased inventory. Buyers are active, but more selective. Sellers are still achieving results, but success depends on pricing, presentation, and strategy.
Months of supply also reflects this shift:
-
Single-Family Homes: 3.8 months of inventory
-
Condos/Townhomes: 5.3 months of inventory
This places much of the market closer to balanced conditions, with some segments leaning slightly toward buyers.
What This Means for Buyers and Sellers
For buyers, this is one of the most favorable environments in recent years. More inventory means more choice, more time to evaluate options, and stronger negotiating opportunities.
For sellers, the opportunity is still strong — but execution matters. Homes that are properly positioned continue to attract attention and move, while others may sit if they miss the mark on pricing or presentation.
