Quick answer

In 2026 the Clark County limits are $832,750 conforming and $541,287 FHA; Southern Nevada's median single-family price was $470,000 in September 2026 (Las Vegas Realtors). Our clients' Nevada closing costs typically run about $6,000–$8,000 on full-doc loans, the seller customarily pays the 0.51% transfer tax, and full-doc loans close in about 17 days.

Las Vegas is where we live and work. The valley's buyers rarely look like a textbook file: casino and hospitality workers paid partly in tips, union trades with overtime, entertainers and gig earners on 1099s, small-business owners who write off most of their income, and investors from California buying their first rental. A broker's job is to find the lender whose rules fit each of those files, and that's what we do every day from our office near the 215 and Rainbow.
Part of our Nevada mortgage broker coverage.
Neighborhoods and ZIPs we lend in: Downtown and the Arts District (89101, 89104), Scotch 80s and Rancho Circle (89102), Centennial Hills and Skye Canyon (89131, 89143, 89166), The Lakes and Desert Shores (89117, 89128), Summerlin North (89134, 89144), plus the unincorporated Southwest: Enterprise and Mountain's Edge (89139, 89141, 89178, 89183) and Spring Valley (89113, 89147, 89148).
Closing costs are what it costs you to get the loan: origination, discount points, appraisal, and escrow and title. Cash to close also includes your prepaids (first-year homeowners insurance, daily interest to month-end, and an escrow deposit for your own future property taxes and insurance) plus your down payment. Prepaids aren't a cost of the loan; they're your own bills paid ahead. For iQRATE clients, Nevada closing costs typically run about $6,000–$8,000 on full-documentation loans and about $15,000 on some non-QM loans, itemized on your Loan Estimate. See how Nevada compares with California, Texas and Florida on our closing costs by state page.
Conforming $832,750 and FHA $541,287 for a one-unit home in 2026 (Clark County). Duplexes go to $1,066,250 conforming. Above $832,750 you need a jumbo loan.
Conventional (as little as 3% down for eligible first-time buyers), FHA (3.5% down, 580+ score), VA (no down payment for eligible veterans with full entitlement), jumbo above the conforming limit, DSCR loans that qualify on rent, bank statement loans for self-employed borrowers, asset-based and 1099 loans, and rate-and-term or cash-out refinances. As a broker we compare wholesale lenders, more than 100 on complex files, instead of one bank's menu.
Terms for each are on its own page; see all iQRATE guarantees.
Our office is at 6360 S Rainbow Blvd, Suite 101, Las Vegas, NV 89118, near the 215 and Rainbow. Call (702) 766-3744. iQRATE Mortgages is licensed under company NMLS 1862492, and David Ghazaryan's individual NMLS is 1486726.
$541,287 for a one-unit home in Clark County. The 2026 conforming limit is $832,750, and above that you need a jumbo loan.
By Las Vegas custom the seller pays Clark County's real property transfer tax of $2.55 per $500 (about 0.51%). By law buyer and seller are jointly liable, so the purchase contract decides.
For iQRATE clients, closing costs typically run about $6,000 to $8,000 on full-documentation loans and about $15,000 on some non-QM loans. Closing costs are not cash to close: cash to close also adds prepaids such as first-year insurance, daily interest and the property-tax escrow deposit, plus your down payment.
Las Vegas Realtors reported a September 2026 median of $470,000 for existing single-family homes in Southern Nevada and $290,000 for condos and townhomes.
It depends on the jurisdiction. Inside the City of Las Vegas you need a license, the owner generally must occupy the home, and rentals must be 660 feet apart. In unincorporated Clark County the application period closed in August 2023. Check the parcel's jurisdiction before you count on short-term income.
Yes. Lenders can count documented tips, overtime and bonuses, usually with a two-year history on your W-2s or tax returns. If your returns understate income, a bank statement loan is an alternative.
Most of our loans close in under 30 days. For eligible full-documentation conventional, FHA and VA purchases, our goal is 17 calendar days from signing initial disclosures.
Often not the city. ZIPs such as 89118, 89123, 89139, 89141, 89148 and 89183 are largely unincorporated Clark County. The Clark County Assessor's parcel record shows your actual tax district.
