Naples Housing Market: Summer Sales Surge

The Naples housing market held steady during the summer, with inventory decreasing to pre-pandemic levels and an overall median closed price that showed strong value retention. According to the August 2025 Market Report by the Naples Area Board of REALTORS® (NABOR®), which tracks home listings and sales within Collier County (excluding Marco Island), closed sales increased 11 percent to 604 closed sales from 544 closed sales in August 2024. Inventory of homes declined month over month through the summer but increased 9.1 percent in August to 4,892 properties from 4,485 properties in August 2024.

Broker analysts reviewing the report believe one reason inventory fell during the summer was because sellers pulled homes off the market, a familiar summer occurrence that creates a shadow inventory. But another factor was an increase in pending sales, which outperformed activity for the last four consecutive months compared to 2024. In all, the August report is positive confirmation that the Naples housing market continued to retain its desirability through the summer.

Many properties are expected to come back onto the market before the end of the year.

Stepping Outside the Shadow

The report showed overall median closed price in August decreased 1.1 percent to $588,500 from $595,000 in August 2024. As a result of sellers pulling homes off the market, this shadow inventory influenced prices in the desirable Naples single-family home market. For example, in May there were 3,120 single-family homes on the market with a median closed price of $704,000. By August, inventory in the single-family home market had decreased to 2,418 with a median closed price of $732,000.

Conversely, in May there were 3,404 condominiums on the market with a median closed price of $450,000. By August, condominium inventory had fallen to 2,474 with a median closed price of $408,000.
