The cheapest listing fee is not automatically the cheapest way to sell. A $499 flat fee saves ~$10,426 up front — but FSBO homes sell for 5.5–12.6% less, a $24,000–$55,000 price gap. Net: full service puts $13,600–$44,600 more in your pocket.

Selling on your own can look cheaper because the fee is visible. The harder number is the sale-price gap. In the Las Vegas example, the advertised saving is about $10,426, while published research puts the potential price difference at roughly $24,000–$55,000. That doesn't mean every owner sale has the same result — it means you should compare estimated net proceeds before choosing the cheapest-looking option. Want me to run both paths for your home? Comment NET and I'll put together your side-by-side seller net sheet.

Think you need 20% down to buy a home in Las Vegas? Our Nevada Real Estate Group blog broke down what our team's 789 closings last year actually showed — fewer than 17% of our buyers put 20% down.

On the $473,875 median Las Vegas home:
• VA loan: $0 down
• Conventional: 3% down = $14,216
• FHA: 3.5% down = $16,586

And Nevada's Home Is Possible program offers up to 4% down payment assistance you don't have to repay — which can bring your out-of-pocket down payment to $0.

One thing most buyers don't know: conventional PMI cancels at 80% loan-to-value, but FHA mortgage insurance lasts the life of the loan. The loan you choose matters as much as the down payment.

If you've been waiting to save 20%, let's talk — you may already be ready. Full breakdown from our blog here: https://www.nevadarealestategroup.com/blog/how-much-down-payment-las-vegas-home-2026/

Thinking about rent-to-own in Las Vegas? Here is what the numbers actually say:

Only 9 of 8,319 active MLS listings offered rent-to-own — it barely exists here.

Typical deals take a 2–5% non-refundable option fee + a $200–$400/month rent premium — all forfeited if you never buy.

One late payment can void every credit you have earned.

For most households, FHA 3.5% down ($15,050 on the $430K median) plus Nevada Home Is Possible assistance costs less than rent-to-own.
