Sun Topics: Real Estate in Crisis Home prices slide as sales activity stays steady (9-9-2008) Nevada among 8 states with high foreclosure rate (9-5-2008) Nevada leads nation in rate of foreclosures Some of the fliers circulating in North Las Vegas this week invite residents to the city’s annual hot-air balloon festival, BalloonaPalooza. Other fliers address an issue that’s more of a downer. The handouts invite residents to a seven-hour workshop dealing with the foreclosure crisis. Nevada leads the nation in the rate of foreclosures, and North Las Vegas is the eye of the storm. In August, there were more than 800 foreclosures in the city. That’s only the latest bad-news figure in the ongoing market downturn. In the second quarter of this year, 12,000 Nevada homes went into foreclosure, and the crisis is expected to continue for at least a year. A study by the Pew Center on the States projected one in 11 Nevada homes will enter foreclosure by the end of 2010.

In Aliante, a master-planned community still being developed, nearly one in seven residential properties has gone into foreclosure since last fall. Against this backdrop, City Hall is telling residents it is not too late to get help. Buddy Yates, a 60-year- ...
