Bundled Golf Naples FL Weekly Real Estate Report

Ron Barakett — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 05:23:29 +0000

We are experiencing a tremendous surge in showing activity, some positive numbers (14 sales ) inventory reductions (-1.8% in my sample grouping of Bundled Golf here in Naples Florida 376 units). If this number drops to below 325, we should see some modest price increases. The “DOWN” elevator has to first stop before changing directions and going up. I feel that we are that point. If you have any friends that want their piece of Paradise (NAPLES FLORIDAS CROWN JEWEL), SEND THEM OVER TO ME. I will treat them very well and help them find what they want.

A message to Building 1, Unit 107 (she will know who she is) remember to pick up your envelope.

Bundled Golf Naples FL Weekly Real Estate Reports

The weather has been Chamber of Commerce ‘perfect’: Hotels are full of visitors. Seasonal Rentals are at full occupancy, so things are looking brighter than they have for the longest time. Net sales and new listings are in balance, as you will notice in the charts below. The number of distressed properties flooding the market has diminished appreciably, BUT I caution, not evenly. Some communities still have more than their fair share, and so inventory levels have not receded in these communities. The market did not go ”BOOM” across the board in 2004/2005, nor did it collapse evenly in 2006. This distinction is evident by product types. Condominiums with covered parking are being absorbed at a somewhat slower rate than those with garages (Coach Homes, Carriage Homes, and Verandas)

USING THE REPORTS:

My suggestion, look at the Quarterly report for the community you are interested in. Next week compare the “Changes” report to this report that will show you which properties have had a change in status/price/newly listed etc.

Bundled Golf Naples FL Weekly Real Estate Reports 1/9/2012

Ron Barakett — Mon, 09 Jan 2012 18:29:19 +0000

There was a small increase in inventory, due mainly to a bunch of listings that expired at the end of the year, (reducing last week’s numbers) and as the listings got renewed, it brought the level back up to where it was late December 2011. There is a lot of action in the market place, which will increase the number of sales to be reported in next week’s report. For those who have followed along last year, I reported that Heritage Bay had no more new condos to build, here is an update: they sold the last of the Coach Homes last week, another positive move for resales across the spectrum of Bundled Golf Naples FL residences. Please email me or call me (239/850-1366) for specific details on any one property (pictures, virtual tours etc.) are available on request.

If anyone wants to be removed from this subscription, it is as easy as sending me an email saying “please delete me” from these reports.

We are either getting ready to go away for the Christmas weekend, or to have company for the week. You would conclude that this should normally be a slower time of year. I have never been so busy showing and listing property. I am not politically correct, so let me wish you all a Merry Christmas and/or Happy Hanukkah!

Market update

Heritage Bay has sold out of condos. There is constant advertising on the radio for long distance truck drivers, both owner operated as well as employee drivers. There are more dump trucks on the road than I remember seeing any time since 2006. These are leading indicators. I am having more and more showings on my listings. Everything bodes well for the coming Christmas and New Year’s period, keep your fingers crossed!!
