Well after some “up north” fly fishing and watching my beloved Tigers fall to the Cubs I am once again back in Naples and on the blog. As my first act I thought I would take a look at inventories. We still believe supply and demand drives market price. Sure prices differ by neighborhood but if you want to look at the big picture and a major force in the market look no further than supply and demand.
The news for Naples continues to be good. Not too long ago the supply of residential property far exceeded demand and prices fell – no news here. Some areas had a six-year supply of homes. Today in Naples the supply is 7.52 months (Sunshine MLS data 6/16/2012). There are 5,257 residential properties for sale in the “all Naples area” and in the past year 8,392 homes were sold. So what? At these levels we expect to see a lot support for price even as we move into our off-season months.
Great news for Naples – our markets continue to improve.
