— By Justin Neubeck of CBRE — Las Vegas is approaching an important turning point in its multifamily cycle. After several years of elevated construction, the market is now moving beyond its peak delivery period. The region completed about 7,071 units in 2023 — the highest total in more than 20 years. This was followed by 5,247 units in 2024 and 6,302 units in 2025. Deliveries are expected to decline again in 2026, to roughly 5,334 units. Meanwhile, 2027 deliveries areprojected to return to the 30-year average of about 3,500 units, including the 3,321 units currently scheduled. This shift marks the beginning of a more balanced supply environment. At the same time, the region continues to attract new residents at levels that outpace the national average. Clark County reached a population of about 2.4 million in 2024, an increase of 2.1 percent from 2023. It is projected to grow to more than 2.9 million by 2040, and to surpass 3 million by 2045. Southern Nevada also welcomed more than 40,000 new residents in 2025 alone. Nearly 47 percent came from California. This included 14,200 from Los Angeles County and thousands more from Orange County, San Diego and the Bay Area. …
— By Alma Cuevas and Jason Griffis of Cushman & Wakefield — The Las Vegas industrial market continues to evolve, shaped by new development and sustained demand. While vacancy has increased due to recent deliveries, the market tells a more nuanced story, particularly within smaller space requirements. Leasing activity in first-quarter 2026 totaled just under 3 million square feet, with an average deal size of about 21,000 square feet. Notably, about 95 percent of all leases occurred in spaces of less than 50,000 square feet. This concentration of activity underscores the continued depth of demand within the small and mid-bay segment. At the same time, the increase in vacancy is largely attributable to new construction, much of which has been concentrated in bulk distribution product. Continued development and expansion from groups like Prologis, OMP, EBS and Panattoni have added significant Class A institutional inventory to the market. While these projects enhance Las Vegas’ long-term positioning as a regional distribution hub, they have also expanded availability in spaces exceeding 100,000 square feet. This dynamic is effectively dividing the market into two distinct segments. Larger users are benefiting from increased optionality, more aggressive concessions and greater flexibility in lease negotiations. Smaller users, …
