Recently I came across a post on Active Rain:  7 Reasons not to use a Part-time real Estate Agent...              Real estate is not something that can be done on a part-time basis. Here are seven reasons not to use a part-time real estate agent.

I think that this is not simple assessment to make. The situation is more complex and has a lot to with the reality of today's real estate economy.

A recent report from PMI Mortgage Insurance listed Las Vegas as a risky market with a good chance for declining home prices over the next two years. A slow down in the local housing market is beginning to affect more than buyers and sellers. A number of agents across the valley are now looking for second jobs. With the current trend in housing, she thought it only made sense to have a plan B... What that can be? Sometimes to get a second job. 

I think that is nice and dandy to speculate on other issues when your back is covered and feel safe and something else when you can't afford to pay your bills... Obviously those less fortunate by the "profits made over the good years" have to find part time jobs (for a period of time) to meet the needs. Are those to be judged and discriminated against? Are they less of good real estate agents? I would say NO, but contrary they are the heroes of the day... And I bet you that when the prosperous real estate market comes back they will run far ahead of us. They passed the test of endurance and hardship.

The W Las Vegas will be a $2.5 billion development that includes a mix of hotel and condo hotel units. It will be located on the corner of Harmon and Koval Streets in what's becoming known as the Harmon Corridor, less than a half mile east of The Strip.

Hotel and Casino were purchased by four of The World Series of Poker stars. Nearly 9,000 poker players from around the world have descended upon Las Vegas for the 37th Annual World Series of Poker. The W Las Vegas is a fully-furnished luxury hotel condominium residences at the W Las Vegas Hotel, Casino & Residences.

  *** Red Rock Country Club is located along the Western edge of Las Vegas in Summerlin. Designed and developed by Sunrise Colony, a builder of some of America's finest Country Club Communities, the 24 hour guard-gated community has the recreational features of a luxury resort, but offers the privacy and serenity sought after by the most discriminating of home buyers.

Adjacent to the Red Rock National Park & Conservation area, Red Rock Country Club's natural beauty is one of its best highlights. The community sits at elevations from 3,000 feet above sea level and its rugged terrain includes 100 foot deep canyons as well as lakes, waterfalls, and streams.

This eighteen hole facility is desert style in design, however, it is unique in that its perimeter mounding promotes a stadium effect. This also aids in deterring wayward fairway shots from going astray. Course designer Arnold Palmer followed the idea of preserving some of the existing formations and natural drainage patterns, therefore limiting the amount of disruption to the natural surroundings. The greens are fairly small compared to most newer courses. They have mild undulation and are very fair. Golfers of all abilities will experience a pleasurable challenge on this course. Due to the private nature of this course, fees are not published. The club plans to open eighteen more holes, in nine hole stages. The target date for completion of the first nine holes is 2000. Guests must be accompanied by a member. Those interested in membership information please call (702) 360-2223.

Private Course - The 18-hole "Mountain Course" at the Red Rock Country Club facility in Las Vegas, Nevada features 6,965 yards of Summerlin golf from the longest tees for a par of 72.  The course rating is 72.3 and it has a slope rating of 130 on Bermuda grass.  Designed by the legendary Arnold Palmer, the Mountain Course opened in 1999 and provides Red Rock real estate with some of most spectacular views in the entire Las Vegas Valley.

Public Course - The Arroyo Course, Red Rock's newest Arnold Palmer Signature course and the only course at Red Rock Country Club open to public play, ribbons seamlessly through the rugged terrain, nestled between the spectacular landscapes of Red Rock Canyon, one of Las Vegas' most revered natural landmarks, and panoramic views of the Las Vegas cityscape. Stretching 6,857 yards and playing to a par 72, the Arroyo is a rare mix of compelling design and exceptional beauty. Bold bunkering, dramatic water hazards and the stark contrast of emerald greens against the tanned desert mountain, provide amazing views for the SUMMERLIN Red Rock Country Club homes lining the course.
