Summer Brings More Inventory and Opportunity for Naples Buyers

Summer Brings More Inventory and Opportunity for Naples Buyers

The summer 2025 real estate season in Naples is off to a promising start—especially for buyers. According to the latest June 2025 Market Report by the Naples Area Board of REALTORS® (NABOR®), this summer offers more inventory and slightly softer prices than we’ve seen in the past decade.

More Homes, More Choice

Inventory in Collier County increased 18.2% compared to June 2024, with 5,885 homes on the market versus 4,978 the year prior. For summer buyers, this means greater selection across price points and neighborhoods.

While summer traditionally sees a dip in listings, this year defies the trend. Those who remain active in the market will find more opportunities than at any time in the past 10 years.

Prices Easing—But Not Falling

While prices have softened modestly, the market remains stable. The median closed price in June dipped 3.2% year-over-year to $576,000, giving some breathing room to buyers who were previously priced out.

However, the average sales price rose 12.4% to $1.2 million, signaling strength in the luxury segment—especially with closed sales of properties over $5 million increasing by 13.6% in the past 12 months.

Sellers Holding Steady

Over 1,200 sellers withdrew listings in June, possibly waiting for more favorable pricing conditions later in the year. Yet, brokers note that serious sellers may benefit from the reduced competition during the summer months.

Naples: A Unique Market

Unlike many other markets in the U.S., Naples isn’t driven by financial urgency. Many homeowners aren’t tied to mortgages or pressured by life events to sell quickly. This creates a unique dynamic where inventory levels and pricing trends can diverge from national headlines. Experts caution against comparing Naples to broader real estate trends.

What’s Next?

With interest rates still in flux, buyers have a window of opportunity to make a move before the next potential rate drop—which, historically, has been followed by a rise in prices. In the meantime, the current Naples market offers a rare combination: more homes to choose from and pricing that favors patient, well-prepared buyers.
