Spanish Wells Fall Market Report
The community of Spanish Wells Golf & Country Club consists of 8 subdivisions, 7 of which are not bundled.
The apparent large increase in the Single Family median price in Q3 simply reflects the small number of sales in the summer months.
Estero Fall Market Report
Estero is sandwiched along Florida’s Gulf Coast between Naples to the south and Fort Myers to the north and lays claim to Florida Gulf Coast University and serves as a relaxing destination.
Median prices in all categories have increased steadily this year, while sales saw the usual seasonal slowdown in Q3.
Pelican Landing Fall Market Report
Pelican Landing is a master planned community of 3,350 residences on over 2,300 acres, bordering Estero Bay on Florida’s Gulf Coast and accented by lakes and preserves.
The market saw consistent increases in median prices in the first 9 months of the year.
North Naples Fall Market Report
North Naples includes the area from Pine Ridge Road to the Lee County boundary just short of Bonita Beach Road. Sales saw a seasonal slowdown in the summer months, although median prices continued to rise.
East Naples Fall Market Reports
East Naples includes the areas to the East of Collier Blvd. The market saw consistent price growth through the first three quarters of 2021 in all categories, while sales saw a seasonal slowdown in the summer months.
Sterling Oaks Fall Market Report
Sterling Oaks is Southwest Florida’s premier tennis community. Located in North Naples, the community consists of 432 Single Family Homes and 304 Condos/Coach Homes in North Naples, Florida. Prices appreciated throughout the year (the Q3 Condo number is exaggerated by the very small number of sales.)
Naples Market Report by Location and Property Type
The market statistics produced by Realtor Boards provide a lot of useful information, but group together what to me are wholly different categories – e.g. Single Family and Manufactured.
Here then is what I hope will be a more useful and informative analysis, which shows the breakdown using the categories that make sense to me. I also include definitions of the different property types after the charts.
Single Family and Villas
Villas have HOAs, Single Family homes do not. And the price point tends to be different. Ergo, they should be analysed separately:
Foreign Buyers May Return in November
WASHINGTON – President Joe Biden will ease foreign travel restrictions into the U.S. beginning in November, when his administration will require all foreign nationals flying into the country to be fully vaccinated. Fully vaccinated passengers will not be required to quarantine.
In my recent market reports I wrote: “As buyers from more foreign countries are allowed to visit the US again, those buyers – who were largely absent last year – may well add further demand to an already extremely tight market.
As for the future what remains true is that “as it’s now possible to work from anywhere in the world, why not live and work in paradise?”
Traffic is starting to pick up in Southwest Florida as we see the first of the winter arrivals. If you are interested in buying please contact me to beat the rush!

Flood Insurance Changes Coming Oct 1
Changes are coming to the flood insurance policy sector taking effect October 1st on new policies and April 1, 2022 on any outstanding renewal policies. I will write further as more details are revealed but these are the highlights from the FEMA Risk Rating 2.0 announcement:
1. Flood zones and Elevation Certificates will no longer be a rating factor (Flood zones will still be present for mortgage purposes)
2. Elevation Certificates will no longer be needed to determine rate
3. No more preferred rate tables for X,B,C Flood zones
4. Flood Vents (2 openings on 2 walls on lowest level) will no longer provide significant savings
5. Machinery on ground floor will impact rate (ex:a/c, water heater, washer/dryers)
6. Grandfathering: Policyholders will still be able to transfer their discount to a new owner by assigning their flood insurance policy when their property changes ownership
7. FEMA will continue to offer premium discounts for pre-FIRM subsidized and newly mapped properties (ex: Zone X remapped to A Zone, rate from X can be grandfathered as long as there is no coverage interruption)
8. Replacement Cost Value will impact the rate (Historically, lower valued homes were paying more than they should and those that had higher value homes were paying less than they should)
FEMA “predicts the average rate increase will be about 10%.”
