Las Vegas Popular Choice for Second Home


With the recent increase in high rise condominium construction projects, more people are purchasing high rise condominiums as second residences in Las Vegas. Condominiums in Las Vegas offer many benefits, including easy maintenance, stunning views of the city of Las Vegas, comfortable living, desirable locations, and close proximity to shows and musicals, fine dining, gambling, and more. Las Vegas condominiums purchased for use as a second residence may become a primary residence when the owner looks to retire. Nevada currently offers many tax benefits, including no state income tax and favorable estate tax laws. Centrally located to all of the West Coast, current residents of Arizona, California, Oregon, and Utah have found Las Vegas to be only a short and inexpensive flight or drive away.

Michelle Lorenzo of Panorama Towers, one of the most prestigious high rise condominium projects in Las Vegas, Nevada, has seen an increase in the number of clients purchasing condominiums for a second residence.
