While real estate and tourism may seem like separate worlds, the latest data shows they’re closely linked, especially in markets like Las Vegas, where land value, development costs, and visitor volume all play a role in hotel rates.
“As home prices and inventory shift, we’re starting to see the ripple effects on nightly rates,” says the Las Vegas Jaunt team. “It’s a dynamic traveler’s do not often consider, but one that always remains relevant”.
