While it's not all sunny for the Holidays in the North and Northeast... There is some positive news to report!
The November Year-to-Date Report for Naples and Bonita Springs Florida is out! The market report below shows the sales trend in the Naples area as well as the historical numbers and comments that provide some clarification for those that tend to glaze over when they see all these charts and figures.
I believe the comments on the report speak for themselves. The market continues to increase in the number of sales over the same month in the prior year because of the roll back in pricing which has caused the dollar volume to be lower. To the dismay of many of the buyers in the market a recent study found a very small handful of waterfront or beach homes that were either short-sales, foreclosures or bank owned.
CLOSED SALES
• YTD November closed sales units up 19% over same period 2007. Volume is down 9%.
• YTD closed sales under $250,000 continue to dominate the market, showing a 121% increase over same period 2007. Not a big surprise however considering the lack of sales in this price range in 2007.
• Closed sales for the month of November are up 10% over November 2007.
• Median sales price is down 22.5% from November 2007.
