27+ years of experience. 315+ five-star reviews. Art Loera helps Las Vegas buyers and investors across Clark County purchase, invest, and refinance with confidence.
Las Vegas is the largest housing market in Nevada and one of the fastest growing in the West. Per Las Vegas REALTORS, the valley single family median sat in the high 400,000s in early 2026, in a balanced market with rebuilt inventory. Nevada charges no state income tax, which keeps drawing buyers and investors from California and across the country. From Summerlin to Southern Highlands to North Las Vegas, Art Loera helps people buy, invest, and refinance with a plan that actually closes.
Primary home, vacation property, or rental, the goal is the same: a clear plan, honest numbers, and a real human who answers the phone. Art is personally licensed in Nevada (NMLS #367308) and serves clients nationwide through PRMG’s multi-state branch network.
Las Vegas runs on investors, second home buyers, and move-up families, so these four programs do a lot of the work here. They are not the only options, just the ones this market asks for most.

VA loans, including the IRRRL streamline, typically need no appraisal or income documentation, though that is not guaranteed. DSCR loans qualify on the property cash flow rather than your personal income. No rate is ever promised before a full review.
From master-planned Summerlin to affordable North Las Vegas and the guard-gated luxury of The Ridges, the valley covers a huge price range. Knowing the area helps set the right price range and loan plan before you write an offer.
USDA loans offer 100 percent financing with zero down for eligible rural areas. The catch in the Las Vegas Valley is location. USDA tightened its map effective October 1, 2023, which made the Las Vegas, North Las Vegas, and Henderson city limits ineligible.
Outlying parts of Clark County and nearby communities can still qualify, and roughly 99 percent of Nevada land remains eligible. Because eligibility is decided at the exact address, the only way to know is to check it.
Send Art the property address and he will check it on USDA’s map in seconds. 2026 USDA income limits are 119,850 dollars for a 1 to 4 person household and 158,250 dollars for 5 to 8, with no set maximum loan amount.
Up to 5 percent toward down payment or closing costs on a 30 year fixed loan. Minimum credit 640, or 660 for a manufactured home. Income and price limits apply.
Up to 20,000 dollars in assistance for essential workers, with income and price limits and first come, first served funding.
Around 7,500 dollars in assistance for qualifying Nevada teachers.
Assistance for veterans and active duty service members buying in Nevada.
A Mortgage Credit Certificate can turn part of your mortgage interest into a federal tax credit.
A zero percent second loan option to help cover the down payment for eligible buyers.
Program terms, income caps and price limits change over time. Art confirms the current details and whether you qualify before you count on any of them.
Property taxes in Las Vegas are set by Clark County, based on assessed value and the local tax rate. Nevada caps the annual increase on owner occupied primary residences at 3 percent, which helps keep your payment predictable over time.
Rates vary by parcel and tax district, so for the exact figure on a specific home, check the Clark County Assessor. Art will also fold a realistic tax estimate into your monthly payment so there are no surprises at closing.

Yes. A DSCR loan qualifies on the property cash flow rather than your personal income, which fits many Las Vegas investors and short-term rental buyers. Terms depend on the property and the rents. Ask Art for a scenario on a specific address.
