Episode 13: Real Estate From Naples to Maine — Second Homes, Smart Strategies & Lifestyle Transitions
In the second half of this insightful conversation, Elise sits down again with Melinda Gunther of Premier Sotheby’s International Realty to talk all things Naples real estate. From $24 million sight-unseen purchases to lifestyle-driven second-home decisions, Melinda shares remarkable stories and strategic insights. They discuss the shifting luxury market, buyer psychology, and why many are still choosing Naples—just with more precision than during the pandemic rush. You’ll also hear how trends in what is happening in other markets often foreshadow what’s coming in Maine, and why having an experienced advisor on the ground is more critical than ever. Elise and Melinda wrap with their favorite podcasts and tools for staying sharp in this dynamic market.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- A jaw-dropping story of a $24M sight-unseen home purchase—and resale

- The emotional and strategic decisions behind second-home buying
- The importance of market timing and local expertise in discretionary markets
- How trends in Naples may signal what’s coming in Maine
