May Real Estate Activity
May Real Estate Activity for Naples Florida
The most recent May real estate activity reports revealed a total of 907 properties were sold, amounting to just over $1.2 Billion in sales for the month. Notably, the highest-priced sale was a Gulf-Front estate in Olde Naples which fetched $29,500,000.
Furthermore, the Naples luxury real estate market saw a notable number of high-value transactions, with 312 properties sold at or above $1 million.
The overall inventory at the end of the month stood at 5,019 properties for sale, marking a substantial 67 percent increase compared to the same period last year. However, it fell 4.2 percent from the previous month. The decline in inventory is typical for this time of year as many Sellers will remove their properties from the market and wait until the fall.
Additionally, Naples continues to receive accolades for being one of the best places to retire. In a recent study by MarketBeat, Pelican Bay in Naples was ranked the 2nd best place to retire behind the Wilea neighborhood in Maui, Hawaii. With accolades like this, it’s clear why so many are choosing to call Naples home!

In the month of May, a total of 907 properties were sold in the real estate market, consisting of 455 single-family homes and 452 condos. This marked a 12 percent decrease in sales compared to the previous year.
Year-over-year, the median price for single-family homes rose to $850,000 from $745,000. The median sales price for condominiums also rose from $482,500 last May up to $505,000 in May of this year.
Interestingly, the average number of days it took for a property to sell remained relatively stable, with a slight increase from 66 to 67 days between April and May. However, this figure still falls short of the typical 120 days seen in a robust market.
Summer is traditionally the slowest time of the year in our area. Thus, sellers must set the right prices to stay competitive in today’s market. In fact, we saw 1,710 price reductions during the month as sellers aligned with the current pricing levels in their neighborhoods. The bottom line, the days of “aspirational pricing” are over.
On the flip side, buyers can benefit from an increased inventory of available properties.
