Supply of properties continues to rise

Image
Nothing new in February: Significantly more listings Increasing days on market before a contract was signed Fewer sales And yet increasing median prices The number of listings for sale are currently sufficient to supply the market for 8 months. According to the usual definition, this is actually a buyer's market, which should significantly improve negotiation opportunities. These negotiation options currently exist. In February the sales price was in average 3.4% less than the asking price. And alone in Collier County, 680 properties have had their prices reduced in the last 7 days. Apparently, the sellers had calculated increases like in previous years and priced their properties accordingly. Real estate in Collier County had a price increase of 50% from 2021 to 2023. In this respect, many buyers already see it as a success if they only pay 5% more than a year ago.

Marco Island real estate market holds up well

Image
While sales are down in other areas of Southwest Florida and median sales prices are stagnant, Marco Island is moving in the other direction in January. 36% more properties sold and an average price increase of 17% for single family homes is quite impressive. The rising number of objects and the longer average time, till properties are under contract, corresponds to the experiences from Naples, Fort Myers and Cape Coral. Of the 24 residential properties that sold for over 5 million dollars in Southwest Florida in January, three of them were on Marco Island. Quite impressive for the small island!
