Rentals Usurp Dream of Owning Home in Las Vegas Valley
In NORTH LAS VEGAS NEV A decade of rapid growth gave way to a rental boom as ownership waned. The Severance family pays $1,365 monthly for a four bedroom house once intended to be theirs, part of a national shift from ownership to renting. Homeownership fell from over 69 percent to under 64 percent, with projections to 61 percent in 15 years. Baby Boomers still own at higher rates, while Millennials face affordability and desire limits. From 2005 to 2013 single family rentals rose on Recktenwall Ave and across Las Vegas, reflecting a 12,000 unit shift. National data show 3.2 million more single family rentals from 2004 to 2018. The Severances lost their first home to foreclosure in 2009. STORY CONTINUES ON 2B.
