    Las Vegas Real Estate Information (Jan ）)

    Dear all,

    I wish you all a very happy new year.
    We hope that 2026 will be another productive year for all of you.

    The current weather in Las Vegas is really surprisingly pleasant. The temperature is just right for the beginning of spring, and the warm, sunny days are continuing.

    It seems that about 148,000 attendees came to Las Vegas for CES 2026, the world's largest technology exhibition held in early January. The event, which brings together companies and media from around the world, is also a symbol of the economy and vitality of Las Vegas and has had no small impact on the real estate market. In particular, this year's CES showcased a number of technologies directly related to our daily lives, including AI （ artificial intelligence ）, smart homes, EVs （ electric vehicles ） and health tech.

    Now, regarding the Las Vegas real estate market, the median price of a single family home last December was $ 470,000, down 1.1% from the same month last year, and condos and townhouses were $ 275,000, down 5.2% from the same month last year, all of which Prices are down from December 2024.

    Since the Federal Reserve （ Fed ） sharply raised the Federal Funds rate 11 consecutive times between 2022 and 2023, there has been no significant change in demand in recent years, plus high home prices have This has continued. On the other hand, it is on the supply and seller's side that we see significant changes in the annual supply-demand balance. Please see the attached Clark County - Las Vegas Annual Housing Start table, which shows that inventory numbers at the beginning of 2026 are at their highest level since 2022.

    Thus, the Las Vegas housing market remains heavily influenced by interest rates. When housing rates rise, demand slows and the market slows. When interest rates fall, demand increases and the market becomes more active.

    For example, assuming a monthly payment of $3,000 （ principal and interest only and a 20% down payment ）, you can purchase a $563,750 home at a 7% interest rate, but at 6% you can purchase $625,000 and at 5.5% you can purchase $660,000 The purchase price will increase. Current home interest rates are slightly above 6%.

    Although the housing market tends to be relatively calm at the beginning of the year, buyer demand is expected to increase at a faster pace as interest rates are expected to fall more slowly this year. This has led to a widespread belief that buyers will buy first when good properties are available and refinance when housing rates fall, especially in the more affordable price range, and the market is expected to remain active through mid-March. For sellers, however, setting the right price is of utmost importance, even as demand increases. In many cases, setting prices too high will prolong the listing period, resulting in fewer transaction opportunities and ultimately leading to price reductions. Please be careful when setting the price at the beginning of the sales process.

    By the way, there is a slight slowdown in Las Vegas tourism indicators starting in late 2025.

    According to November 2025 data, the number of visitors was -5.2% YoY, hotel occupancy was 79.4% ≪ (-2.0 points YoY ） and average customer spend was $ 193.04 ≪ (-2.9% YoY). On the other hand, casino and gaming revenues were down. On the other hand, casino and gaming revenues are solid and up 2% y/y, while the Strip is down -0.6% y/y, but downtown remains strong at +10.3% y/y. There has been some news on the internet and social networking sites that several hotels on the Strip are closing, but there are no official reports at this time.

    Of the large Las Vegas resort developments planned for the future, I am personally most interested in Bally's Las Vegas （ two hotel towers ） to be redeveloped on the site of the former Tropicana, adjacent to the new MLB Athletic stadium and a large sports ＋ resort concept, and is highly anticipated as a new landmark.

    Finally, the real estate market and economy changes daily, but the important thing is not to be swayed by the news and to make decisions that fit your life plans and objectives.
    Buying ・ Selling ・ Investing In any case, a proper understanding of the market environment and a reasonable plan will lead to a secure future.

    If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us at any time.

    🍎 Bilingual Education from Age 3: Differences between Children Who Grow in English and Those Who Don't ！ Vol.260119

    We are teaching English to children but they are not improving at all ！
    This is due to "lack of practice in reading and writing".
    Children in the U.S. learn to read and write in Kindergarten from the age of 4 or 5, one year before entering elementary school. The goal is for children to be able to read simple books and write short sentences by the time they enter first grade.
    It is important to support reading education at home in order to consolidate children's reading and writing skills.
    Also, post "alphabet charts" and "sight words charts" in places where children can "see" them.
    Children "unconsciously learn by repetition" the information they see. This is a great way to help children learn how to read and write.
    At TLC for kids, children can acquire "the ability to read English books with correct pronunciation ＝ through daily home study materials and weekly classes.

    In TLC for Kids lessons, children can learn English/Japanese language skills through songs in a fun way 👧👦
    Original reading materials to enhance learning while having fun ✏ ️
    Experienced counselors with extensive teaching experience in Japan and the US Our counselors are experienced in teaching in Japan and the U.S. and will support your family's individual study plan in Japanese.
    We guide children who are not confident in English or who are new to English to enjoy learning and achieve proficiency at the same or above age level.

    ⚠ ️Car Accidents ・ Are you suffering from injuries ？ 🚗 - Are you hesitant to consult a lawyer ？ - 🫵

    We are a Personal Injury （ Personal Injury ） Law Firm with offices in Irvine, CA 🔔
    One of the most common comments we hear from our clients is "I was hesitant to contact a law firm …. "I was hesitant to contact a law firm " and "I have had traffic accidents but never used a lawyer because I was worried about the legal fees.
    So in this article, we will show you why it is important to consult an attorney and why you need not hesitate.

    First of all, while car accidents are very common in California, many Japanese victims tend to hesitate to consult a Personal Injury Lawyer, and one of the reasons for this is largely due to cultural differences.
    The biggest reason among them is
    📌 the influence of Japanese culture of "patience ・ self-solving"
    In Japan, there is an image of "not making a big deal," "not wanting to get into trouble with the other party," and "having a lawyer ＝ suing," and even victims feel psychological resistance to using a lawyer. Many victims feel psychological resistance to using a lawyer.
    This is also true for the actual "pain" of the injury, which is often thought of as "I'll just put up with this much," but this "patience" can affect the amount of compensation.
    💡 To receive just compensation, you do not need to be patient or reserved ！

    The next question we are often asked is:
    📌 "Using a lawyer ＝ The misconception that you will go to court
    One of the most common questions we receive is: "If I ask for a lawyer, will I go to court? If I ask for an attorney, won't I have to go to court ？?". In reality, the majority of California car accident cases do not go to trial and are settled with the insurance company.
    Of course, some cases do go to trial, but not ＝ using an attorney.
    The lawyer's role is to ensure that the client receives an acceptable settlement from the insurance company, including the cost of medical treatment.
    By consulting with an experienced and professional team, the client's chances of receiving a fair compensation for loss of income, future medical expenses, and emotional damage, in addition to the cost of medical treatment, are enhanced.

    📌Strong concerns about legal fees
    We work on a full contingency fee basis. Since attorney's fees are taken from the settlement amount from the insurance company, there is no need to pay any initial fees or other costs.

    📌 Anxiety about English and insurance procedures
    All communication with insurance companies is in English. Many Japanese people have tired of dealing with the English language or have proceeded with settlements without fully understanding it.
    We are here to protect the "legitimate rights of victims" 💁‍ ♀ ️ We handle all communication with insurance companies on your behalf, so you can focus on treating your injuries and reduce unnecessary stress. We can help you to protect your rights.

    Therefore, do not hesitate ・ ‼️ to contact us first about your injuries sustained in a car accident or due to the negligence of another party.

    I should file Tax Return ？" ---Basics of U.S. Taxation that you may not know

    Should I File a Tax Return ？ The Basics of U.S. Taxation That You May Not Know"

    1. Introduction ： Unexpectedly many "people who really need to file a tax return"
    "Do I need to file a tax return? ？ "Do I need to file a Tax Return?

    - I received withholding tax in Japan …
    - I retired and my income is low …
    - My company is withholding …

    Many people think that they have to file a Tax Return （ tax return ） but they do not file it.
    However, failure to file can lead to serious risks later, including additional tax ・ penalties ・ and adverse effects on the immigration process.
    This article explains
    ✔ whether you are eligible for Tax Return
    ✔ and
    what the benefits of Tax Return are.

    2. What is Tax Return （ Tax Return ） in the first place ？
    In the US,
    • even if taxes are withheld from your salary
    • and your company issues W-2 or 1099
    the individual is still responsible for properly calculating and reporting his/her annual income to the IRS.
    The taxpayer cannot rely on the company to "do it all" and the ultimate responsibility is the taxpayer him/herself.

    3. Who "must" file a Tax Return ？
    （ Those whose income exceeds a certain amount Most typical ） （ See ： Image 1 ）
    Age ・ There is a threshold amount for each filing status and it is determined if the threshold amount is exceeded.
    • Salary
    • Self-employment income
    • Investment income
    • Foreign income
    All of these are included.

    (2) Self-employment （ sole proprietorship ） income in excess of $ 400 per year
    Uber, freelance, influencer income, etc
    → even if amount is small $ over 400, you are obliged to file a tax return.

    (3) Nonresidents with US source income （ 1040NR ）
    • Dividends from US investments ・ Interest
    • US real estate income
    • Studying abroad and taxable scholarship
    • Part-time work in the U.S.
    etc. must be reported on a 1040NR.

    Cases where even dependents or spouses with (4) ITIN need to file
    e.g. investment income or interest on US accounts.

    4. Conversely, people who are not required to file but "should" file
    (1) Withholding is too high → Refund is available
    Tax is taken from your wages If this is the case, you must declare it or you will not get it back.
    (2) Education Expenses ・ Child Credit
    • Child Tax Credit
    • American Opportunity Credit
    and other refundable credits that you must report to get. Credits are available.
    (3) People whose Social Security or Medicare records are affected
    Self-employed people who do not file risk having their future pension （ SSA ） reduced.

    5. Advantages of Filing a Tax Return
    Benefits ① Money Back （ Potential Refund ）
    It is not unusual for the amount returned to be several thousand dollars.
    Advantages ② Advantage in immigration process （ Visa ・ Green Card ）
    Failure to declare
    • Renewal of status
    • Green Card
    • Permanent Residency Application
    Many times you will be asked why you have not filed.
    Advantages ③ Reduce risk of later IRS investigation
    Not filing is the most dangerous situation.
    If you file a return, it is easier to prove if a tax audit comes later.
    Benefits ④ Past subsidies ・ Tax credit payments
    Corona benefits distributed during the pandemic （ EIP ） were not received because "people did not file a Tax Return. There were large numbers of people who "did not receive the benefits because they did not make a Tax Return. Some subsidies and credits can be received later by filing a Tax Return （ within 3 years ）.

    7. Summary ： Check with an expert to see if you are eligible
    Tax returns are becoming more complex every year, and it is easy to make a mistake if you do not have expertise in determining residency, bilateral taxation, credit systems, etc. It is very easy to make a mistake if you don't have any specialized knowledge.
    "I don't know if I need to file"
    "I feel like I have to file"
    If so, consulting with a professional can greatly reduce your risk of
    missing a tax refund ・ in the future.
