“I Told You So!”

Sorry to be rude and to exult, but I am ‘allured’ in to it. I recall the taunts of skeptics when the Allure project took a few extra months to break ground. I knew that Chicago-based Fifield was reliable and had an excellent track record, and therefore strongly recommended the Allure tower project to my clients.

It is therefore heartening to know that this landmark construction on Sahara Avenue has now reached the ninth floor, with only 32 new ones to go before the scheduled 2007 completion deadline. 25 months would be a great achievement for general contractor Bovis Lend Lease for a condominium tower of Allure’s complexity from a construction perspective.

Project delays are nightmares for Las Vegas realtors. The gullible can sucked in to a vortex of excuses to shield against angry clients, as unprofessional and overly ambitious developers hide behind a screen of weak reasons for long construction delays. Real estate agents sure have their work cut out, as they pick and choose from candidate projects to recommend for discerning clients. Hasty promotion without full homework tends to land Las Vegas realtors in hot water-or has them hot footing it out of town!

428 units are planned for the first Allure tower, and the other will have 472. Incredibly, for a place of this kind of elegance, prices start well below $500 thousand, and there is something just right for most folks, with floor plans starting at less than 700 square feet and going well beyond 4 thousand square feet. However, Allure is no good if you do not like gorgeous views from floor-to-ceiling windows, have no time to enjoy private balconies, find European-style fittings pretentious or if you have a think against GE Profile appliances!

I sincerely feel that this project has exceptional appreciation potential, and recommend it with confidence. It is just right for people from the international community who like to drop in through McCarran for quick Las Vegas trips, yet promises the ambience and amenities to suit those who move to Nevada on an on-going basis. Corporations, who have frequent occasion to send top management teams to Las Vegas conventions, will love Allure prices, and the condominiums will give no reasons for complaints from even the most demanding executive types.

Financial institutions have excellent products for young professionals who work in Las Vegas, and the Allure Towers are full of conveniences that make domestic life so much easier for working couples and for busy individuals as well. The Towers hold out the promise of an eclectic resident community, and we are well on track if reports of existing sales are anything to go by! This week’s great news of the ninth floor concrete having set is sure to have prospective residents and investors making purchases in droves, so if there is a particular floor plan on which you are especially keen, call now for an appointment for a site visit with a reputed realtor of your choice!
