Another major factor that signified the market was self-correcting to a new normal in April were the 549 price reductions (33 percent of the inventory) during the month.</span></span></p><div style="caret-color: rgb(64, 63, 66); font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span face="Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif" style="background-color: black; color: #ffd966;">“What we are seeing today are more sellers setting realistic list prices from the start and more buyers less willing to settle for homes that don’t meet their exact needs and desires,” said Brenda Fioretti, Broker Associate at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Florida Realty, who added that the report showed “we now have 1.5 months of inventory, the highest level since March 2021.”</span></div><div style="caret-color: rgb(64, 63, 66); font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span face="Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif" style="background-color: black; color: #ffd966;"> </span></div><div style="caret-color: rgb(64, 63, 66); font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span face="Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif" style="background-color: black; color: #ffd966;">Demand for the Naples lifestyle remains strong. Days on market for April was 16 days, considerably less than the historic 90-day average. As inventory begins to rise, days on market may increase and list prices in some neighborhoods may shift down slightly; but broker analysts agree that we should not expect home prices to drop to anywhere near pre-pandemic levels.</span></div><div style="caret-color: rgb(64, 63, 66); font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span face="Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif" style="background-color: black; color: #ffd966;"> </span></div><div style="caret-color: rgb(64, 63, 66); font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span face="Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif" style="color: #ffd966;"><span style="background-color: black;">“There is virtually no data in the MLS for home sales below $300,000,” said Molly Lane, Senior Vice President at William Raveis Real Estate.</span> </span></div><div style="caret-color: rgb(64, 63, 66); font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ffd966;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="caret-color: rgb(64, 63, 66); font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: black; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ffd966;">Coffey remarked that the $300,000 and below market was once the biggest category for closed sales in Naples. But rapid sales during the last 18 months severely depleted inventory in this price category. As such, there were only 96 properties below $300,000 in April’s inventory.</span></span></div><div style="caret-color: rgb(64, 63, 66); font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: black; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ffd966;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="caret-color: rgb(64, 63, 66); font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: black; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ffd966;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="caret-color: rgb(64, 63, 66); font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: black; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ffd966;">The overall median closed price in April increased 39.2 percent to $599,000 from $440,000 in April 2021. The uptick reflects the low number of sales in the $300 and below price category. Median closed prices continue to rise in the single-family home market, up 8.7 percent from March, but median closed prices during April in the condominium market decreased 1.1 percent from March.</span></span></div><div style="caret-color: rgb(64, 63, 66); font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ffd966;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="caret-color: rgb(64, 63, 66); font-family: Arial, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #ffd966;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;">The NABOR</span><sup style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; line-height: 0;">®</sup><span style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;">April 2022 Market Report</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;"> provides comparisons of single-family home and condominium sales (via the Southwest Florida MLS), price ranges, and geographic segmentation and includes an overall market summary.
