What global recession threat? It looks buyers appetites for Naples real estate is going to continue into July. A look at pending sales, those under contract without contingencies, are looking strong for next month. 860 properties are scheduled for final sale. If you add in some additional closings where offers and closing occur in the same thirty days, we may continue to clip along at the 1,000 properties a month pace – a little interesting when we only have 5,200+ for sale. We will see if supplies tighten further and prices rise even more.
The story of pending sales strength is also a national theme. The National Association Of Realtors reported yesterday “Pending home sales bounced back in May, matching the highest level in the past two years and well above year-ago levels …Every region saw monthly and annual gains.”
Future forces look somewhat positive – European vacationers are soon to arrive, interest rates are at record lows and the US may look like a safe haven to some international investors. We do have some concerns such as rising prices may choke off demand and the “fiscal cliff” is going to need a non-recession answer – very tricky stuff.
For now things go well. Tropical storm Debbie has watered our plants, given a boost to our aquifers and moved on. The sun is out today – both in the sky and in the real estate results.
