Prediction: Lots of International Buyers Over the Next Year

LAmbiance – Pelican Bay – Naples FL – I keep wondering what’s going to happen to our real estate prices once the U.S. opens its borders to foreign travelers. The article in the link below is a prediction of what international buyers will do.

There is so little inventory, adding more buyers to the mix can only decrease the inventory even more. The principle of “supply vs demand” leads me to think the prices could go higher. Currently there are no units for sale in LAmbiance and only 32 units for sale in all of Pelican Bay.

I found it interesting that international buyers were purchasing by using Zoom, FaceTime, and WhatsApp to view properties. I’ve used Skype in the past to show properties and I LOVE the new apps available to day to communicate with my buyers and sellers.  It would have been nice to have some of this technology when I started out in the business.

LAmbiance is a beautiful place to live. My husband Don and I try to enjoy the beaches in Pelican Bay all summer long. Hopefully you are in town and can enjoy them too.

It’s definitely a Seller’s market. If you are thinking of selling, you can be aggressive with your price. There are so few listings and so much demand your property should sell quickly.

If you are thinking of selling your L’Ambiance unit, please call me before you do any major remodeling. I’d be happy to discuss current market conditions and give you selling tips. I have a list of buyers who are looking for specific units in L’Ambiance. I’d be happy to discuss not only the pricing in L’Ambiance but the pricing for low-rises in Pelican Bay and condos in Naples to see how your unit fits into the equation.

Canada to Reopen Its Borders on Aug. 9

LAmbiance – Pelican Bay – Naples, FL – I read the article below this morning and wanted to share it with you.

Source: Canada to Reopen Its Borders on Aug. 9

After reading the article, I was left wondering what is going to happen once the U.S. opens its borders and people start to look to buy. As of this morning there were only 35 active listings in all of Pelican Bay! Does anyone remember when I blogged about low-rises having 110 active listings?

It’s definitely a Seller’s market. If you are thinking of selling, you can be aggressive with your price. There are so few listings and so much demand your property should sell quickly.

Canadian Snowbirds Delaying Fla. Visits Until COVID-19 Eases

Lambiance – Pelican Bay – Naples, FL – I saw this article in my trade e-mail this morning and wanted to share it with you.

Travel decisions for our Canadian snow birds likely are contingent on how much longer the U.S.-Canadian border remains shut or if Florida’s COVID-19 cases rise or fall in the next few months.

As I read this article, I thought about L’Ambiance’s Canadian owners and our Canadian renters who return to us. Until Canada reopens the boarder to the U.S., they won’t be visiting. I haven’t seen any stats about the lack of European visitors this summer as of yet.

The Naples Board of Realtors July Stats showed a decrease of -3.2% in Naples Beach Area condo median closed sale price.  You can view the full report just click here —- report. Just scroll down to the Naples Beach stats on page 17.  All and all I’d say the market is doing pretty good considering we are in a pandemic.

L’Ambiance’s palm trees were trimmed this and the coconuts were removed. This made for some pretty interesting sounds. I’m always happy to see the coconuts down before a hurricane. I can just picture a storm slamming them into a window.  Our Hong Kong Orchid trees were also trimmed too.

So, how have you been managing through the pandemic? Don and I have pretty much stayed close to home. We usually do quit a bit of entertaining but that has stopped. We find ourselves virtually entertaining on Skype or Zoom now. We hope you and your families are all safe and healthy.
