July 2022 Naples FL Area Real Estate Market Update.  Should you change your mind about Buying or Selling a home in SW Florida based on the July 2022 real estate market activity information? Summer is traditionally a quieter time for the SW Florida real estate market compared to our busy peak season during the winter. What do YOU think is happening in real estate this summer?  That’s what we’ll talk about in today’s episode.  Welcome back to the channel.  I’m Terri Pascarelli, with MVP Realty.  You’re probably checking out today’s episode trying to figure out if you should change your mind about Buying or Selling a home in SW Florida.  We’ll look for clues in the July market.  And stay with me to the very end of this video . . . I’ll share an insider tip on something you can look forward to enjoying in the greater Naples area if you’re here in September!  Don’t miss the tip - stay with me until the end of today’s episode!  

Over the summer - especially during June and July - we questioned how the overall economy and mortgage interest rates would impact the housing market.  That’s still causing you to ask important questions:  If you’re a Buyer, what should you expect regarding housing inventory - will you have more choices of homes and how about sales prices - are they going up or down? And, If you’re a potential Seller, will your home sell and how are you going to decide how to price your home? Either way, should you change your mind about Buying or Selling a home in SW Florida?  

It usually helps to review some data and see what’s happening locally. Today, I’ll review July 2022 results in the Naples FL Area real estate market, summarizing data that comes from analysis done by the Naples Area Board of REALTORS®, which tracks home listings and sales within Naples and Collier County (excluding Marco Island).

Is there anything new to add to what’s been seeming a lot like a ‘same-old, same-old’ report about the Naples FL area Real Estate Market?   Would news about rising inventory be a welcome message for you?  Stayed tune, and I’ll talk about it- here comes my March 2022 Naples FL Area Real Estate Market Report.  Welcome back to the channel.  

I’m Terri Pascarelli with MVP Realty.  If you follow the channel you know I work in the residential real estate market throughout Southwest Florida.  And today I share some news you’ll want to hear about the greater Naples FL Area Real Estate Market.    First - what has stayed the same as I put together this March 2022 real estate market update is that the demand for the Southwest Florida lifestyle is remaining strong as we went through Q1 2022.   Overall, our data shows new listings have risen since the end of last year, over the recent three-month period.  If new listings continue to come on the market in the upcoming months, this will certainly offer more options for buyers who have been working hard to find the right home among the Naples area’s limited home inventory.  Check out this episode to make sure you up-to-date on all the information in our market!  I share some specific feedback for both Sellers and Buyers in this episode.

How a Home Buyer can WIN in a Sellers Market!  Naples Florida  In this episode we tackle a BURNING question that we get asked a lot by our customers and friends who are coming to Naples - especially from up north - WHERE can you find a really good bagel in the greater Naples area?  Well we'll let you in on our secret - check out this episode as we share one of our favorite bagel places in Naples.       Empire Bagel Factory:  https://www.empirebagelfactory.com In addition to a little bagel fun, we share more about an opportunity that both home sellers and especially home buyers may overlook in a busy sellers market like we're experiencing now.  As a seller, have you thought about continuing to show your home and take back-up offers?  And as a buyer, have you put in a back-up offer?  You may be surprised to find that your back-up offer can move up into the primary contract position.  Why?  Because a key market dynamic about homes returning to the market has changed recently!  Our February 2022 Naples Area Board of Realtors (NABOR) data shine a light on something that may make consideration of a back-up offer a worthwhile option for you.  Not sure about a back-up offer as a seller or as a buyer?  Contact me today and let's talk about what role a back-up offer may have in your next successful real estate transaction in the greater Naples FL area!
