I grew up there and one learn thing about being in Vegas: You can only trust a very small percentage of the people you meet there. Remember, this was a town where people with little or no education could make a lot of money. That kind of place attracts a lot of people but mostly those of a bad sort. Sounds like your friend is learning this the hard way but being a vetern of the town I would have thought she knew by now. Some people are just naturally trusting and they make easy marks in Vegas.
Every repairman my mother has ever hired has tried to rip her off and she always calls me after an estimate to see if things sound legit. They usually are not.
Take care,
CDMA

You want to guarntee it… Lets see the bond on it!
By the way because I love all of you Pigs so much. I am giving you each a million dollars in a 100 years. Guarnteed! Come see me and collect. 😛
Take care People…
P.S. 1 Million dollars I think works out to about $8.52 cents in a 100 years…

So SDduuuude is probably wondering why I haven’t chimmed in. I am one of the few Vegas Native’s out there (and yes I know the real names of everyone in the movie Casino) and I am still connected to the town via freinds and family though I lay my head in the Loma Portal. Everyone is right about not buying. Without getting into details that town has not seen the worst of it yet and prices will only go down. The rest of the paragraph is antedotal but I think serves as the writing on the wall.
1) My mother is a hiring agent at the Clark County School District and is seeing application for people WAY over qualified for janitor, clerks, and other lowing paying positions.
2) Friends in the construction business has seen all work stop at the residential level. Big projects such as schools, casinos, and other bond fund work continues but beyond that there is no “works” in planning.
3) Anytime I am home I am seeing new and old house vacant, in some cases, for years.
4) There is no real industry in that town other than Hospitality. Once the building stops those in the building trade will have to also give up thier homes either through foreclosers or short sales. After all they are not going to be able to maintain the same lifestyle when there are 3 bodies for 1 job.
5) Vegas has been in a boom before 85′. I think it is time the party is over.
All this leads to lower prices in the market. In fact the cities biggest problems right now is muck filled abandon swimming pools and the DEA’s chasing meth labs from vacants.
My two cents,
I know she wants a home for the child but it really isnt in thier best interest right now.
