Just as it has happens at the end of every season almost every year in Naples, Florida us Naples, Florida REALTORS wave goodbye to our seasonal friends and neighbors who pack up and go north for the summer and we prepare to do those things that occupy our time which was once occupied by showings, open houses, writing contracts etc.
Last year during the off season, I dedicated my time to catching up with my friends, hitting the beach but more strategically working on my Naples, Florida real estate website. Then a tiny bit of fun travel and a couple of short business trips to help me perform as the Naples Smart Girl should.... Nearly the entire summer I worked on my Pelican Bay and Bay Colony web pages because I wanted to have the most comprehensive Pelican Bay and Bay Colony website around.
Well, the term season is a tough term to describe. But, I'll do my best...."season" to me can be described as the busy time of year starting the day that it gets so cold people pack up and come down here and leave til when it's safe or warm enough to go back....the end. For those more calendar driven, high season can be described as January 1 til Easter....but don't forget pre-season which can be described as October 1 til December 31...which we don't always experience or post-season which is the day after Easter to about April 30...that's because sometimes Mother Nature just doesn't always recognize our holidays as the appropriate time to change.
This particular year Easter came early....boo for us who know a portion of our prospect base will use that date to detach from us in Naples, Florida. Yae for the rest of the world as I suspect that might be another sign that your selling season is getting ready to kick into high gear.
Just like magic...or a bad nightmare...I noticed on April 14th my Naples, Florida real estate web traffic took a serious tumble. HOLY COW!! Did I lose a server, did Google blow me up? Oh....sigh....it's the end of season. As much as I'd hoped that all of that super traffic was here to stay considering that (for me) web traffic is an indicator of what's coming down the road in regards to real traffic 30 days to 45 days out....but nope, just a sign of reality...realty...reality...oh whatever.
BUT WAIT...
Just when I started having visions of all the things I'd be doing this summer to beef up my website, get some well needed and deserved rest...spend some much needed time with friends and family...hang on...what's this???
OH YAAAAAEEEE! A new wave of Naples, Florida real estate traffic! Yes, that is correct we haven't stopped for the year, Naples, Florida real estate was just shifting gears! What gear are we in now?
It seems as if we're hitting the mid price ranges in some communities and product that wasn't necessarily too super hot this season like $500,000 to 1,000,000 in Pelican Bay and single family home interest in Moorings, Park Shore....is starting to perk up. Interesting!
Then we have some same interest continuing it's peek activity. For example Bay Colony condo interest is still very active...it looks like condo/villa product only though...sorry single family Bay Colony homes. Beach front traffic is still doing well too with a special serious influx and interest in Aria.
So I just wanted to say thanks for keeping Naples, Florida on your interest radar even with the first sign of Spring. It sure makes a Smart Girl Smile!
