Navigating the Southern Nevada real estate market means paying attention to zip code level trends, not just valley wide averages. This post focuses on 89131, a Northwest Las Vegas zip code that includes Iron Mountain Ranch and part of Centennial Hills. The figures below come from Las Vegas REALTORS® (LVR) MLS data reported for June 2026, and market data like this moves monthly, so treat it as a snapshot rather than a fixed number.
Market Overview
89131 is one of several Northwest Las Vegas zip codes tracked monthly by Las Vegas REALTORS®, and its June 2026 report put homes closing at 99.2% of their last list price. That figure alone doesn't settle whether a market favors buyers or sellers; months of supply and days on market matter just as much, and both are covered below.
It's worth understanding what this kind of data actually measures. LVR's figures come from its own MLS, which tracks homes listed and sold through licensed agents; it doesn't capture new construction sold directly by builders, or private for-sale-by-owner transactions, both of which are common enough in a fast-growing zip code like this one to matter. That's a real limitation worth keeping in mind rather than treating any single number here as the complete picture of the market.
This data ages fast. Real estate figures shift month to month with inventory and demand. The figures below reflect LVR's June 2026 report specifically; if you're using this data for an active pricing or offer decision, confirm current numbers directly with LVR or a local agent first.
Median Price and Value Trends
Property values in 89131 were recorded at the levels below based on LVR's June 2026 data. These figures are a baseline for comparing property values across the Las Vegas MLS, not a prediction of what any specific home will actually sell for.

Median Days on Market
28 Days
89131 includes a real mix of housing types, from established single-family subdivisions built in the 2000s to sections of Iron Mountain Ranch and the northwestern edge of Centennial Hills, so a single zip code median can obscure meaningful differences between individual neighborhoods within it. A specific home's value depends heavily on its neighborhood, lot size, and age within that mix, more than the zip code average alone can capture.
Market Velocity
The median days on market for 89131 was 28 days as of LVR's June 2026 report. This kind of figure is a useful benchmark for sellers timing a listing or buyers thinking through offer strategy in this specific zip code, though it moves with the season and with how much inventory is available at a given time. A pace in the high 20s to low 30s generally suggests homes that are priced in line with the current market are still finding buyers relatively quickly, while listings that sit well past that median are usually signaling a pricing or condition issue rather than simply bad timing.
Inventory Dynamics
89131's inventory spans a real range, from resale homes in established subdivisions to newer construction phases within Iron Mountain Ranch, a master planned section in the northern part of the zip code built out mostly from the mid-2000s onward across several gated and non-gated sections. That mix means buyers can find meaningfully different price points, lot sizes, and architectural styles within the same zip code, depending on which section they're looking at.
The balance between resale and new construction supply shifts over time as builder phases complete and sell out, which is part of why months-of-supply figures for a single zip code can move more than valley wide numbers do. Property taxes on any home purchased here follow Nevada's standard cap, capped at 3% annually for a primary residence and up to 8% for other property, according to the Clark County Assessor's Office.
Living in the Northwest
Residents of 89131 are close to local landmarks like Gilcrease Orchard, and much of the zip code, including Iron Mountain Ranch, sits within a short drive of Floyd Lamb Park at Tule Springs, a large city park with several stocked ponds and walking paths built around a natural desert oasis, according to the City of Las Vegas. The zip code also sits near established master planned communities including Centennial Hills and Skye Canyon. For buyers weighing this zip code against those neighboring communities directly, those two guides walk through what living in each actually looks like day to day.
Buying or Selling in 89131
A list-to-sale ratio close to 100%, like 89131's 99.2% in June, generally means well-priced homes are closing near their asking price rather than seeing steep negotiated discounts, though it says nothing about homes that sat unsold or got pulled off the market entirely. A median of 28 days on market is a reasonable pace, fast enough that overpricing still carries a real cost, but slow enough that buyers usually have time for a proper inspection before committing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the median home price in 89131?
LVR's June 2026 data put the median sales price in 89131 at $545,000. Prices shift monthly with inventory and demand, so this figure is a snapshot rather than a fixed number; current data is worth confirming directly with LVR or a local agent before relying on it for a specific transaction.
How long do homes typically stay on the market in 89131?
LVR's June 2026 data put the median at 28 days. This figure moves with seasonality and inventory levels, so current data is a more reliable reference for an active listing or offer strategy.
Is 89131 currently a buyer's or seller's market?
It depends on which metric is used and shifts over time. Months of supply and the list-to-sale price ratio are the two figures worth checking directly against current LVR data rather than assuming a fixed characterization holds indefinitely.
Why do other websites show different numbers for 89131?
Different sites pull from different sources and count different things. Some use MLS closings like LVR does, others use self-reported Census estimates across all owner-occupied homes rather than recent sales, and some third-party aggregators simply aren't kept current or consistent. When comparing numbers across sites, it's worth checking what's actually being measured, sales price versus estimated value, for example, before assuming two figures should match.
