Pelican Bay Villa Update

Hello Naples Friends!

Just spent some time in the Pelican Bay villa market. Whoo, it's going to be a tight one for Buyers this year but if you're in the market, there are some great choices. Two words, don't wait!

There are less than 5 months of inventory here so the market is tight and likely getting tighter.

Here are the Pelican Bay Villa markets that have NO inventory: 

• Beauville at Pelican Bay
• Carlton Place at Pelican Bay
• Chanteclair Manor at Pelican Bay
• Cocobay at Pelican Bay
• Grand Bay at Pelican Bay
• Las Brisas at Pelican Bay
• Lugano at Pelican Bay
• Oak Lake Sanctuary
• Sand Pointe at Pelican Bay
• St. Andrews at Pelican Bay
• Tierra Mar at Pelican Bay
• Villa Lantana at Pelican Bay
• Villas at Pelican Bay

If you're looking for properties in the above Pelican Bay neighborhoods, contact me directly! I can put you on my instant notification program to alert you when new product hits the market giving you the best chance of getting that property!

If you're thinking about selling your Pelican Bay villa in one of the above communities, contact me today to find out how we can knock it out of the park for you!

Here are the Pelican Bay neighborhoods with limited inventory:

• Bridgeway Villas
• Interlachen at Pelican Bay
• Villa Coronado at Pelican Bay

Even with limited inventories, there are still Pelican Bay villas that are priced well and look amazing! I wouldn't wait though, 3 Pelican Bay villas went under contract in 1 week. Activity like that is going to make it tough on other Pelican Bay villa buyers. We could see prices increase dramatically if this continues!

Here are the Pelican Bay villa communities where inventories are level:

• Isle Verde at Pelican Bay
• St. Raphael at Pelican Bay

Even where inventories are limited you can still find some pretty decent values and both fixer-upper and fabulously remodeled homes. 

Here are the Pelican Bay villa communities currently over-supplied:

• Bay Villas at Pelican Bay
• Cannes at Pelican Bay
• Vizcaya at Bay Colony

Here's the latest testimonial I received last night from my most recent Pelican Bay Buyer:

"5 star white glove service. Shannon is very knowledgeable regarding the housing market in general, and specifically the Naples area where we focused our house hunting search. We enjoyed spending time with Shannon and appreciated her invaluable input which ultimately led us to our dream retirement home in Pelican Bay. "

I've been living in Pelican Bay for 11 years. I know it, I sell it, I love it! Contact me today!

Cocobay at Pelican Bay Update

Cocobay at Pelican Bay Naples Florida is STABLE! Here are the current Cocobay at Pelican Bay real estate statistics:

• 2 Cocobay at Pelican Bay homes are on the market.
• 1 Cocobay at Pelican Bay home is under contract.
• 1 Cocobay at Pelican Bay home sale has occurred during the past 12 months.

With only 33 homes in Cocobay at Pelican Bay there hasn't been a year where there was ever a plethra of activity in this Pelican Bay community with 2010-2011 following sleepily along the same as past history.  You will only find a few sales during any given year with 2006 being the record breaker at 4 sales.  The good news for Cocobay is that she is statistically in an under-supply of inventory scenario and values seem to be doing well.  Cocobay at Pelican Bay is commanding slightly higher list price to sales price ratios than Pelican Bay as an average rolling in at almost 95%. 

If you're a Cocobay at Pelican Bay buyer:  If you demand the latest and greatest interiors you may be looking for a project.  While some of these homes have had some remodeling, I'm not sure anything is exactly as you would want so you might have to hone your phone dialing skills or roll up your sleeves for a bit of a project. That is if you can get negotiated out on your deal to start.   Current market time has a slight uptick suggesting that maybe what's left is not necessarily listed at current market value.  You'll want to make sure you cut the deal you're after before calling the contractor. Ironically not only can I assist you with a super negotiating plan but I can also supply you with the names and phone numbers of fabulous contractors who can finish a project on time and within budget who serve the Naples area.  Call me and let's get started today!

If you're thinking about selling your Cocobay home:  If your interiors are completely up to date...yes that means bathrooms too, you could do well this season.  Homes like this across Pelican Bay are in demand and Pelican Bay inventories are shrinking putting you back in the drivers seat.  If you haven't made improvements to your Cocobay at Pelican Bay home, that's ok too...there's just more competition like this on the market right now.  Make sure you have a super marketing plan designed to attract current ready, willing and able buyers paired with an intelligent price point.  With the help of a smart agent, you should be able to net close to what you're asking without the drain and inconvenience of extended market times. Call me today and let's get moving!

I hope you enjoyed the Cocobay at Pelican Bay update.  For more information on Cocobay, Pelican Bay or the Naples real estate market, contact me direct!

PS~ Happy Halloween! I hope all our Naples Florida fans have a fun and safe holiday!

I've just released the Cocobay at Pelican Bay portion of my Naples Florida real estate website! From www.ShannonLefevre.com you can:

• Learn Cocobay at Pelican Bay neighborhood information
• See Cocobay at Pelican Bay homes for sale
• Review Cocobay at Pelican Bay floor plans

I considered including a Cocobay at Pelican Bay past sales page. Since there are only 33 units and they don't come up for sale very often, I decided against it. You can still access Cocobay closed sales from the main Pelican Bay past sales page but I thought it might be redundant to have it's own page.

What are your thoughts? If you'd like to see Cocobay at Pelican Bay have it's own sales page, let me know!

This is part of my continued effort to help you buy and/or sell property in Pelican Bay. This is just one of the reasons why you'll want me to be your Naples Realtor.
