Old Naples Spotlight
Naples has many fabulous neighborhoods but Old Naples, otherwise known as downtown Naples, is the core of the community and is a treasured locale for residents and visitors alike.
Starting in May 2020, our real estate market has experienced a historic high level of demand and like many other areas, Old Naples has seen a dramatic reduction in supply and increase in property values over the past 12 months. As of 5-29-21 within Old Naples, there were 58 properties available, 82 pending and 144 closed over the last 90 days which means there is currently only a 1.2 month supply, clearly a seller’s market! As season comes to a close, the sales activity “should” slow a bit as many people head North but there are definitely more people in SWFL than usual for late May and with increased property values, it will be interesting to see if more property owners opt to list their property for sale this summer to take advantage of the current market conditions instead of waiting until next season. Here are a few charts showing changes in key market indicators over the past 3 years for Old Naples (single family homes & condos):
