Greetings,My wife and I moved to Vegas about 2 years ago.  

So far, I have looked a little into Las Vegas, Provo, Austin, and Orlando.

Since I came to Atlanta, people keep asking me about this show and I watched a few episodes for the first time last night.My question is based on my experience of flipping houses for a few years in Vegas... is there anyone on BP who thinks this show is anything other than a cartoon?

Everyone has their own things that they splurge on - travel, casinos, designer wear,etc.

IS a huge industry as we know.. one of the bigger fulfillment companies in Utah has over 400 employees.. they do fulfillment for Tony Robbins and the flip Vegas folks and *************o  (sic)   etc etc.. 

How about $240k and 1% rule in Las Vegas.

Didn’t vegas had a 40k home build in anthem/henderson, nv?

Are we not seeing the same thing happen in RE right now.Those who bought houses in Vegas @ at bottom look like geniuses- they were.
