Now that Summer is close to ending, what do you see as the takeaways from the last six months?
I still can’t even begin to try to comprehend 2020! Over these last six months the market went from a dead pause in April to the least amount of inventory Naples has ever had. This market is hotter than it's ever been. The takeaways are that we are very blessed and thankful to be in Naples, Florida.
What activities can be done around Naples this year?
Anything from boating, golfing, tennis to cooking out was all available. We actually just relaxed in the morning at our pool while I still had showings in the afternoon. The beauty of this area is that you can do multiple activities any day you like!
Is there an area from which buyers are relocating to your market?
I read an article the other day stating that there are more than 1000 people a day moving to Florida. I can feel that move from the North. We are still getting the majority of people from the midwest but starting to get more and more people from the Northeast. It makes sense when you consider that winter is fast approaching and people are worries about being stuck inside until Spring.
How has your market been doing so far this year compared to this time last year?
Our market has drastically changed from last year to this year. While last year was a good and steady market, we are moving at a pace faster than I have ever seen and we have less than four months inventory in all of Naples.
