man if i only f'n knew! haha. woulda coulda shoulda... oh well.
Not really... My parents purchased a home for $217k in 1999 with 2k sq feet, 3 bedrooms and a strip view... The same is going for 500-600k.

I would have done the same except I was 18, just out of HS and just starting in this biz. Since I graduated college I've been able to afford things I once wasn't able to. I'm blessed. Sure I could get more back then with what I pay now, but thats just how things go sometimes. Vegas is still VERY reasonably priced for a large city. It's a slump right now, but I'd bet that we'll see increases again in 3-5 years.
