old naples: Naples Real Estate Cyber Monday! - 11/29/10 12:39 AM
When most people think Cyber Monday, I doubt seriously anybody is wondering what kind of discount they can get on a Naples property by purchasing online today...in fact, I'll bet that most people wouldn't even imagine clicking their way to purchasing a property in most places. Of course, the more tech-savvy the town is, the more house purchasing click-happy buyers are but when many people think, "Naples Florida", we're barely what many would consider tech advanced.  In fact, I once saw on Fox News that Naples was at town rated "least likely to tweet".  Being @NaplesSmartGirl on Twitter, I was naturally … (2 comments)

old naples: 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)

old naples: 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)

old naples: A Few Steps Ahead Of The Game... - 06/21/08 08:45 AM
When working through real estate transactions, it pays to look past today and think ahead a little bit to ensure a successful and happy closing for all parties involved:
For example:
I recently had an Old Naples condo under contract.  Because there were tenants in place, the buyer (my client) wanted to do the inspections closer to the end because she wanted to make sure everything was going to remain as close to the condition at the time of inspection as possible.  The seller accepted that term, so it worked out.
A few days before the inspection, I reviewed the contract timeline. I realized … (2 comments)

old naples: Naples Renters Are Coming, Naples Renters Are Coming! - 05/29/08 02:34 PM
One of the trends I've noticed lately is the increase in number of rental searches that have been occurring on my Naples, Florida website.  So I can actually feel some of you think, oh how would you know!
Well, it's all in the search terms my friends. For example just today I saw:
Avalon at Pelican Bay rentals Terraces at Park Shore Naples rental vacation rentals on Gulf Shore Blvd Naples Florida I also received my first list of rentals for next season from a property manager in town who keeps me up to date with available rentals. 
People who are really on the ball start making … (2 comments)

old naples: 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)

old naples: 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)

old naples: 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)

old naples: Naples, Florida Real Estate & Zillow - 05/01/08 09:40 AM
There's no mystery that Zillow has had their fair share of challenges when attempting to accurately provide real estate estimates for Naples, Florida real estate.  But before anyone gets too excited, this is not a Zillow bashing post...just an update.  Besides, I'd like to give a special high five to that Zillow representative who admittedly said they had been faced with the challenge down here.  It was quite some time ago and they explained that they were "working on it" so I thought I would double check again to see what has improved especially since I recently wrote an offer with a … (7 comments)

old naples: Naples, Florida Real Estate Market Watch 4/2/08 - 04/02/08 01:01 PM
We should be wrapping up another selling season by now and I should be seeing lots of car carriers loading up cars and shipping them back up north but actually, I'm busier right now than I have been all season and this season was actually MUCH busier than any of us had forecasted or expected.
I showed more Naples beachfront properties this year than I ever have. People are seeing...and buying.  A far different market compared to last year when nobody was doing anything.
Properties in Pelican Bay continue to get snatched up with now the lowest priced condo in Pelican Bay … (6 comments)

old naples: Is Pine Ridge The New Royal Harbor? - 03/25/08 03:36 PM
For those of you who are familiar with the Naples, Florida subdivisions: Pine Ridge and Royal Harbor, I'm sure you must think I'm crazy to even be trying to tie the two areas together.  These two subdivisions hardly have anything in common.  Royal Harbor is located on the eastern side of Naples Bay in the southern portion of Collier County...very close to Old Naples I might add and best known for featuring many Pine Ridge Lots are available, well, just click on the links!

old naples: Naples Florida...A Healthy Addiction. - 03/18/08 02:12 PM
Nobody prepared me when I stumbled upon Naples, Florida over six years ago.  My husband, Jerry, and I happened to be vacationing at Fort Myers Beach in January of 2002 when we aimlessly drove to Naples to see what it was all about. 
We, like many unsuspecting tourists, took Tamiami Trail South all the way down until we got to 5th Avenue through Old Naples:
From there, we took a left and continued our track to Port Royal:
(This is one of the first houses I ever photographed in Port Royal.  I took the picture with my camera hanging out the window and clicked … (7 comments)

old naples: Naples, Florida's Magnificent Properties For Sale! - 03/13/08 12:41 PM
If there was ever a time to select a magnificent Naples, Florida property...now might be the time to do it.  Not because prices are rock bottom or because "now is the time to buy" which is (in my opinion the most overused and least believed term in real estate)...but I believe now is the time to check out the inventory because now more so than any other time in my seven year Naples, Florida real estate memory have there been SO MANY INCREDIBLY AWESOME PROPERTIES to choose from. 
I feel it's important to preface, I'm not talking about the really pretty Naples houses and … (4 comments)

old naples: The Future's So Bright...I Gotta Wear Shades! - 12/29/07 07:34 AM
Well, Maybe it's just the sunshine here in Naples, Florida, but I can't help but be excited for 2008!  Once again, web statistics show record-breaking numbers for December, especially the daily numbers after Christmas. 
Folks from colder parts of the country like Illinois, Minnesota, and Pennsylvania are calling and setting appointments to see some of the greatest locations in Naples, Florida.
I received a call today from a Chicago gentleman looking at condos in Pelican Bay, another email from a couple looking at beachfront homes in Old Naples, and just yesterday, an inquiry about The Strand at Bay Colony. 
Like many of you, I'm ready … (14 comments)
