moorings: Naples Real Estate Inventory Update - 11/01/17 04:18 AM
Naples real estate inventories should be rising sky high right now but with a 13% drop in new listings compared to last year, some Naples neighborhoods could be gearing up for price increases this year.
Here's are the Naples neighborhoods where prices could continue to rise:
Pelican Bay -  5 months Royal Harbor - 6 months Park Shore - 8 months Tiburon - 8 months Vanderbilt Beach - 8 months Pelican Marsh - 8 months With an under-supply of inventory, it might be tough negotiating! Always go in with a Naples real estate negotiating boss if you deal with lower inventories. 
Here are the … (9 comments)

moorings: Naples Real Estate Update 2/7/13 - 02/07/13 01:40 AM
Hello Naples Friends! 

I want to quickly catch you up to speed with what I've been seeing and experiencing regarding Naples real estate so far this season.  Here it is...

1.  The general consensus is the tables have clearly turned in most Naples markets regarding seller confidence. (Even if the evidence on paper does not fully prove full recovery)  Naples real estate negotiations are geared more in favor of the seller than the buyer at this time.  If you are a statistics person, you may find yourself a little disappointed regarding a seller's response in a negotiation as … (0 comments)

moorings: Naples Real Estate Update 11.8.2012 - 11/08/12 04:30 AM
Good Day My Naples Friends!  The election is over! The President is still the President and you can now get high legally in WA and CO...what a bizarre coincidence! The Naples real estate market shows signs of a fierce premature heat up but buyers might have a new edge in negotiations...
Between October 1st and November 6th:

There were 627 sales in the Naples area last year with 48 of those sales listed at $1,000,000+.  The highest-priced property sold was listed at $6,950,000. 

This year a total of 735 sales in the Naples area with 45 sales priced … (3 comments)

moorings: Naples Real Estate Now - 7/25/2012 - 07/25/12 07:04 AM
I was contacted yesterday by a correspondent who’s preparing to write a segment on the current Naples real estate market. When she calls I always try to give her accurate, cutting edge information only a few may have already realized.  Here’s what I told her:
 
If last year’s big Naples real estate story was dwindling inventories, this year’s big story will probably be about the turn towards a seller’s market, smaller list price to sales price ratios and higher pricing.
 
Naples Real Estate Buyers: Get Strategic!  Up until now, it’s been fairly easy to march into any Naples neighborhood and find some sort … (1 comments)

moorings: Naples Rental Requests Down, Buying Up? - 09/22/10 05:11 PM
I've noticed I've had a drastic decrease in Naples rental requests so far this year.  This is FABULOUS news because:
 I don't handle rentals. Most people I've talked to who are looking for rentals don't want to buy real estate! Keep in mind it's still considered pre-season for the Naples real estate market so that trend could change, I suppose...sigh.  But I'm crossing my fingers that's a definitive sign that people are planning on purchasing this year instead of renting.  After all, people should consider purchasing this year...pricing is out of this world in many great Naples communities.  If you were smart and … (1 comments)

moorings: Naples Florida Real Estate Update January 11th - 01/11/09 12:39 PM
I just wanted to take a quick minute to share some of the trends I'm seeing in the Naples Florida real estate market. 
Price is definitely king right now with a majority of the sales traffic being awarded to the lower ended properties for the first time in a few years.  This is actually a sign of a recovering market although sales statistics won't prove that til later.
This also means if you are looking in the areas most sought after in the Naples Florida region for example:
Old Naples
Park Shore
Moorings
Pelican Bay
Pelican Marsh
To name a few... you can expect heavy buyer competition. Sounds weird, doesn't … (8 comments)

moorings: Naples, Florida Real Estate Secrets You Should Know! - 05/20/08 09:03 AM
According to a colleague of mine, a reporter from a very well known newspaper is coming tomorrow to interview someone in my office about Naples, Florida real estate.  This should be a good thing because even negative press is press and well, you can ask Paris Hilton or Britney Spears negative press isn't ALWAYS bad for business.
But incorrect press IS BAD for business.  Although I respect the newspaper...mostly, I had a pretty tasteless experience with them a few years back.  There was a reporter doing a story after Hurricane Charley and apparently she didn't think what I had to say was … (4 comments)

moorings: Naples, Florida Buyers Say And Do The Craziest Things! - 05/19/08 11:24 AM
You gotta wonder what goes on in the minds of the people we come across.  For example, I should be on my 3rd week of hibernation had this years' real estate traffic turned out to be like last years' traffic but no, I'm still really busy with existing and new customers just itching to buy real estate in Naples, Florida.
I spent nearly the entire week with clients from Switzerland who have narrowed their sites on a particular waterfront property in the Moorings.  Not to mention I tried to juggle the time I had left between a batch of both new and existing customers looking … (5 comments)

moorings: Seriously, Can We Talk? - 05/15/08 03:25 AM
A successful showing agent knows when to talk, when to shut up, when to be available for questions and when to step back to allow buyers to talk about what they're looking at.
An interesting thing happened a couple of days ago when I showed some customers from Sweden.  Before we started our tour, he turned to me and said, "Shannon, the sign on your door says that you speak German"?  I replied, "Actually, the sign on the door says that there are German-speaking agents, but I am not one of them...I hope that doesn't pose a problem".  He and his wife … (32 comments)

moorings: Hey! What Are You Doing Here? - 04/24/08 02:10 AM
Just as it has happened at the end of every season almost every year in Naples, Florida us Naples, Florida REALTORS  wave goodbye to our seasonal friends and neighbors who pack up and go north for the summer, and we prepare to do those things that occupy our time which was once occupied by showings, open houses, writing contracts, etc. 
Last year during the off-season, I dedicated my time to catching up with my friends, hitting the beach but more strategically working on my Naples, Florida, real estate website.  Then a tiny bit of fun travel and a couple of short business … (3 comments)

moorings: Naples, Florida Beachfront ...A Perfect Solution To Winter Blues! - 10/23/07 07:39 AM
Naples, Florida beachfront homes and Naples, Florida beachfront condos offer some of the most amazing sunsets in the world.  It's no wonder why values and interest remain high even in what most consider a slow and uneventful real estate market. 
I am currently working with a few people anticipating making a visit to Naples, Florida within the next few months. It is for sure that time of year when people are looking for a place they can escape to when the weather is cold and gloomy.
