Are there any Naples agents out there? I'm very interested in how your market is looking ... any better?

I'm from Naples. We have a real estate market? Had me fooled! We aren't even close to hitting bottom.

I'm from North Captiva, which is north of Naples and we see a lot of Naples buyers. I don't think we are at bottom yet, either. That said, our market has held up better in some respects due better supply constraints ( advantage of a small island with limited properties ). SW Florida beachfront properties are holding up better in general than SW Florida interior properties.

Carey if you do a query of counties or zip codes you can answer your own question by period over period review of number of distressed ie REO, NOD, NOT properties. If the number of properties increased by 200 or more every month things have gotten better.
