ROBUST PENDING SALES IN APRIL CONFIRM MARKET RESILIENCY
Naples, Fla. (May 22, 2026)
– As high season begins to settle and traffic around town eases, the Naples real estate market is showing no signs of cooling off. Overall pending sales (homes under contract) in April increased 38.2 percent to 1,388 pending sales from 1,004 pending sales in April 2025. Steady demand for the Naples lifestyle during April resulted in a 7.7 percent increase in the overall median closed price to $630,000 from $585,000 in April 2025. Broker analysts reviewing the April 2026 Market Report by the Naples Area Board of REALTORS®(NABOR®), which tracks home listings and sales within Collier County (excluding Marco Island), predict a solid summer market ahead, especially before the August elimination of the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac limited review process for condominium buyers, which will require lenders to review more data, including a condominium association’s reserve fund status.
The percent of list price received in April increased .3 percent, which means more sellers are pricing homes right for today’s market. In fact, less than 30 percent of homes for sale in April initiated a price decrease.
“The market is stabilizing in a way that supports long-term value,” said Sherry Stein, CRB, Managing Broker, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Florida Realty. “If our inventory were rapidly increasing, then buyers might expect low-ball offers to work. But that’s not happening in this market.”
