Pelican Bay – Naples, FL – Each morning I read through various trade articles that come my way. Occasionally I share them with you. The one below really hit a cord with me.

Source: 3 in 10 Sellers Say Security Cameras Have Monitored Buyers

Today’s technology makes it possible for Sellers to record showings on their homes. Florida does have rules about recording. If you are a buyer looking at properties remember not to express any opinions about the home you are viewing until you are in the car with your Realtor. You do not want the Seller to know just how much you LOVE their home before you even write an offer.

Sellers, be prepared to hear all sorts of things about your home. The kitchen countertop you agonized picking out until you found the “perfect” one might end up being not so perfect for the buyers coming through your home. Listen to the buyers comments. If every buyer complains about the same thing, you’ll need to change it or offer a credit at closing to compensate. If you do have video and audio recording equipment in your home talk to your Realtor and/or your attorney about the laws involving recording.

As of this morning, there were only 33 listings in the entire complex of Pelican Bay. This should give you some perspective how low the inventory  is in Pelican Bay. Curious about the real estate market? Here are the statistics posted by Naples Board of Realtors for June 2021 . Stats for Pelican Bay would be in the Naples Beach area on page 16.

Wherever you are enjoying your summer, know the beach at Pelican Bay is waiting for your return.

Pelican Bay – Naples, FL – Looking through my trade e-mails this morning, I saw this article and thought I should share it with you. This article discusses how having an older roof may make it harder to find home owners insurance.

Source: Can You Afford a New Roof?

Right now properties are selling so fast it makes one’s head spin. Some of these contracts do not include home inspections because Buyers want to make the deal more appealing to the Sellers. I can see a whole lot of unhappy Buyers trying to find home owners insurance on a house with an older roof. If you are looking for a home, it might not be a bad idea to have an attorney explain what will happen if you cannot obtain homeowners insurance under the contract you’ll be using BEFORE you even write a contract.

Inventory still remains low in Pelican Bay. As of this morning there were only 31 active listings in all of Pelican Bay. The Naples Board of Realtors recently released the June 2021 Statistics .  When you click on the link, scroll down to the Naples Beach section. Pelican Bay is part of this section. You’ll be able to see what’s happening with single family homes and condominium sales.

Even though we are going through our rainy season, our Pelican Bay beach is still a beautiful place to enjoy.

Pelican Bay – Naples, FL –  Pelican Bay offers a variety of building designs for its buyers.  A low-rise building design is one with 1-3 floors.  Some low-rises have carports; some have attached or detached garages. There are different views and floor plans to appeal to all sorts of buyers.  Let’s take a look at how the low-rise building design fared in terms of pricing from 2015-2016. 

Average Sales Price Median Sales Price Days on Market
2015 $544,189.00 $492,500.00 113
2016 $589,451.00 $560,000.00 148

In 2015 there were 112 low-rise sales.  2016 saw 91 sales.

As of today, there have been 11 closed sales with an average sales price of $703,818.00 and median price of $755,000.00.  There are currently 19 pending sales with an average price of $656,503.00 and a median price of $565,000.00.  We have 68 active listings that represent an inventory that could last 8.77 months.  A “normal” market has 6 months of inventory.

In 2015 low-rise sellers were obtaining 94.13% of their original asking price.  2016 saw sellers receiving 93.14% of their original asking price.  Since January 1, 2017 sellers are receiving 92.07% of their original asking price.  While low-rise numbers show in increase in sales price, I have seen more listings fail to sell and price reductions than I have seen in a long time.

The 2016 YTD Naples condominium real estate statistics show a slow down in the market for  and an increase in inventory.

Pelican Bay – Naples, FL – Today found me setting up showing appointments for out of town Buyers that are coming in on Monday and working on a market evaluation for a Seller who owns a low-rise in Pelican Bay.  In the process of doing the market evaluation, I calculated the real estate statistics for low-rises in Pelican Bay for the third quarter of 2014 in comparison to the third quarter of 2015. Here’s what I discovered:

3rd Quarter Stats

2014

2015

# of Sales

21

21

Average Sales Price

$409,137.00

$574,262.00

Median Sales Price

$388,000.00

$515,000.00

Days on Market

187

100

Close Price to List Price Ratio

94.1%

94.3%

It amazed me that we had the exact number of sales in both third quarters!  What is interesting is the jump in both the average and median sale prices for the quarters.  The days on the market decreased substantially from 2014 to 2015. Sellers are still getting roughly 94% of their asking prices.

As of today, there are only 27 low-rise listings on the market in Pelican Bay. That’s pretty slim pickings for Buyers and good news for Sellers.

Pelican Bay – Naples, FL – Is anyone else having trouble believing we are just a few weeks out until Thanksgiving? If you live in Pelican Bay, are you expecting company over Thanksgiving? Pelican Bay is definitely a beautiful place to live and I’ve found that it also attracts friends and family members.

Wondering what has been happening with real estate prices in Pelican Bay?  Let’s take a look at the numbers for the third quarter of 2014 compared to last year’s statistics for the third quarter by building design.

Note the smaller numbers of sales in the third quarter of 2014 to the number in 3013. Part of this decline is due to limited inventory.  Days on the market have inched up a bit and the average sales price has declined.

3.08%

While the average sale price has increased this represents a small number of sales.

Season has started and Buyers returning to the market are finding the inventory of listings has decreased.  In my opinion some Owners are still waiting for prices to increase on their units to what they paid for them during the market boom.  I also think last winter was the straw that broke the back for some Owners who decided they’d had it with winter, sold their Northern homes and moved into their Pelican Bay units that they used to rent in season. This in turn has decreased the amount of seasonal rental units in Pelican Bay. If you just started to try to rent a unit in Pelican Bay for the 2014 season, I wish you luck.

If you are thinking of selling your Pelican Bay unit, please give me a call.  I actually have Buyers looking for units in Pelican Bay. 

Do you have any questions on the above statistics? Please feel to call me at 239-594-2780 to discuss your concerns.

Pelican Bay – Naples, FL – How was your summer? We saw a busy one here in Pelican Bay. The North beach area at the Sandpiper was closed for renovation which caused more people using the South beach area of the Sandbar. Even with the addition of people taking in the South Beach, I still think there were more people here in the summertime in Pelican Bay than in the past.

What happened with real estate prices in Pelican Bay?  Let’s compare the first half of 2013 to the first half of 2014 to see.

LOW-RISES

2013 2014

While the average sale price came down a bit, the list to sale differently shrank. In the first half of 2014 Sellers accepted only 5.09% less than their asking price vs. 8.82% in the first half of 2013.

I’ll be anxious to see the third quarter of 2014 in comparison to the third quarter of 2013.  This has been a busy summer in Pelican Bay. I’ve been selling in Pelican Bay for the last 18 years and this is the first summer I have seen so many sales over the million dollar mark.
