Naples Short Sales 9/4/10

There are currently 1,294 active "potential" Naples short sale listings on MLS right now.

Short Sale Bus
Of those listings, 108 Naples properties are listed for over $500,000. You can see 20 of them here:

Naples short sales $500,000+

There are also 129 (That's 18 more since last week) Naples short sales located west of 41 (Tamiami Trail or close proximity to Naples beaches) You can see 22 of them here:

Naples short sales West of 41

Buyer Beware: Just because the property is listed as a "potential" short sale, does not mean the owner's bank has agreed to sell the property for the reduced amount.  It could be the owner and or agent has not had any communication with the bank regarding selling short.  "Bank approved" verbiage on the listing sometimes indicates that there has already been communication with the lender and that they will be willing to negotiate a deal if for at least full price.

Short sales can take a GREAT DEAL OF TIME to close (if they ever close) be prepared for more of a hassle than a normal transaction BUT if you get it done, it might be a deal.

Of course it's easier if you're working with a smart agent on your behalf. They have the ability to talk intelligently with the other agent and can help you through the transaction.

For the expanded lists of either Naples short sales priced $500,000 and above or Naples short sales west of 41, send me an email requesting the list you want and I'll get it to you asap.

As always, for more information regarding Naples real estate, contact me direct!

Naples Beachfront Homes

There are technically only 29 Naples beachfront homes for sale right now.  Of those 29 homes, 13 of them are located in Barefoot Beach (many people mistake Barefoot Beach as being located in Bonita Springs) and 4 of them are located on Keewaydin Island ( located in "Naples" but Keewaydin is a barrier island only accessible by boat or helicopter). 


Naples Beachfront
That really leaves only 12 Naples beachfront homes located in what many consider "Naples proper".  Even with the economy the way it is, supply and demand typically rules and let's face it, that's not alot of inventory for an entire town the size of Naples.

There's one Naples beachfront home currently under contract and 14 have sold in the last year so the Naples Beachfront home inventory is actually undersupplied right now.

Now any real estate agent who wants to double check my math might think, "hey Smart Girl, that's not what MLS says"!  ...and they would be correct in saying so. But a few boneheads out there have tagged their listings as Gulf front even when they're not even close to being actual Naples beachfront properties so you gotta be careful when you're checking out the data. 

I know what's really Naples beachfront and what isn't and that's why you who may be shopping from afar want to contact a Smart Girl like me to help you with your Naples Beachfront home purchase.

Here's a Naples beachfront home currently available on Keewaydin Island which is a FABULOUS place to get away from it all!

You can see some other Naples beachfront homes here.

As always, you're welcome to the complete Naples Beachfront home list. Email your request for the complete Naples Beachfront home list. This list will include all of the homes located on our Naples beaches and won't include the two impostor homes listed as Naples Beachfront but are not. :)

Naples Florida Price Adjustments

Price adjustments are a busy business for Naples Florida real estate.  There were 363 Naples Florida properties in MLS this past week that had price adjustments.  When I type "price adjustments" you might think they were all reductions, but there are always some price increases in the bunch as well. With some Naples locations now appreciating, you'''ll see that happen.

There are some really nice reductions in Naples this week.
  Here are 17 Naples price adjustments I have permission to blog about.  This link will remain live for approximately 3 weeks.

If you want the full list, you'll have to email me direct.  Make sure you ask me for the Naples price adjustment list.
