Our MLS in Las Vegas has search criteria for “foreclosure” and “short sale” functions.

Las Vegas Area is my region

Coast / Western US you can find plenty of such homes in places like LA, Seattle, Las Vegas. 

We dont really have any war zones IMO -- not compared to crapholes like New Orleans, the nastiness of downtown San Diego or some bad places in KC, Las Vegas etc.Just dont buy in Hilltop, or Planview if you know what's good for you - come visit the city - walk the neighborhoods, drive them etc and you can get a feel - Sunday afternoon Saturday evening you can get a good feel for what is going on in a neighborhood. 

Looking for any insight into Las Vegas, i am specially looking for multifamily opportunities (no more than a 4 plex).

@Lee RipmaI too like Las Vegas but you’ll have toss toss your median home price of $100-$250k in the trash.

(Las Vegas/Denver before departure). 

google Boxable North Las Vegas.. 

@Robert Reno I'm not in the Las Vegas market, but I advise you connect with a real estate agent that knows the market in and out.

I gave them two addresses and they never got back with me.Some clown came to Los Angeles from Las Vegas and said he could get anyone houses in Las Vegas for wholesale prices and he had a huge list of them, but this a-ho... said if he showed anyone the houses on his list those people had to make a decision to purchase his houses within minutes because they would not last any longer.
