The business climate in Clark County, Nevada, which includes the Las Vegas metropolitan area, is generally considered to be favorable. The county is home to a strong and diverse economy, with major industries including tourism, gaming, convention and trade shows, construction, retail, and healthcare. The Las Vegas Strip is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, and the city's convention and trade show business also brings in a significant amount of revenue. Additionally, the county's proximity to California and Arizona, as well as its relatively low taxes, can make it an attractive location for businesses looking to expand or relocate.
Clark County has a large and growing population, which provides a diverse and skilled workforce, and the area is home to a number of colleges and universities, including the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV), which provides a steady stream of qualified graduates to the local workforce.
It’s not surprising that this expansion, and the accompanying growth of the housing market, would generate issues in financial litigation with the lenders and mortgage loan originators of the area, whether commercial loans or consumer loans such as residential mortgages.
