Times change and so do styles and ideas, for years designers and architects have styled their homes on a somewhat similar concept. Houses are traditionally built with a living room, dining room, kitchen, bedrooms, bathrooms and maybe an office. All over the world, homes have similar features and include most of these basic rooms.

But things have changed and the way they have moved on in Naples is affecting the sales of existing homes. The way we live our lives has changed and therefore our homes have been altered to accommodate our needs. We all used to lock ourselves in our own little space, be it a bedroom, office or kitchen, privacy was important, using a landline for instance with everyone listening made walls important.

If Real Estate is your passion and is also what makes your daily bread, then when my Real Estate Advisors tell me that there is a large number of homes available on the MLS inventory and that sales are slowing down, it makes sense to look more closely at the figures right?

But figures can be elusive, manipulated and pretty much made to say what you want them to say.  So I decided to take another tack, yes it would appear that there is a large number of existing homes on the market for sale. So why are they not selling? I took a look at the latest figures from Collier County, particularly at new construction and new communities.

Style does not only…

About to break ground Naples Square condos in Olde NaplesSo what's new in Naples, construction wise?  The latest and greatest new development I think at the moment is the arrival of Naples Square just off 5th Avenue in downtown.  Why? is this the latest and greatest I hear you say, there are a number of reasons.  When you look at downtown, the area is pretty much built up, apart from the tearing down of individual old homes and construction of huge luxury homes on the teardown plots, there is not much else going on as far as large new developments. Naples Square will be just across the road from Bayfront, another great condo community overlooking the bay.

Driving through Naples today there is a hive of activity throughout once stagnant building sites.  During the heyday of rising house prices, it seemed like Naples was growing at a phenomenal rate.  There seemed no end to the growing number of communities which were springing up all around the town. 

Now as bargain house prices become harder to find, it seems that once again, major construction is underway with more new communities springing up throughout Naples.  However, do we really need all these new homes? is our population really growing at such a rate that we need to have construction on what seems like every available corner?

During 2005 - 2009 Naples and Marco Island were the 15th fastest growing metropolitan areas in Florida. Collier County…

With acreage becoming scarce in Naples, the opportunity to build a new community is getting slimmer, most of the new communities are now being built on the outskirts of town.
