🌴 SW Florida March Market Update Cape Coral – Josh Bohling - LPT Realty SW FL

March in Southwest Florida marks the heart of our peak season, as perfect weather, bustling activity from "snowbirds," and motivated buyers create a dynamic real estate environment. While national headlines continue to discuss market adjustments, it's important to focus on what's happening locally. Following a period of rapid expansion, the market has found its footing: prices have stabilized, insurance costs have leveled off, and we're seeing more informed buyers navigating a healthier inventory landscape. ☀️🏖️📊

But the local Cape Coral numbers paint the true picture...

Cape Coral Single-Family Homes

*   Median Sales Price: $400,000 (Stable vs. last year)
*   Closed Sales: 390 (Up a whopping 17.5% vs. last year!)
*   Active Inventory: 2,678 (Down 26.9% vs. last year!)
*   Months Supply of Inventory: 6.9 (Down 37.7% vs. last year!)

Takeaway: What a story in Cape Coral! Inventory is significantly down from last year, with nearly 27% fewer homes on the market. This squeeze in supply, combined with a 17.5% jump in closed sales, shows that buyers are actively snapping up properties. While prices are stable year-over-year, the market is moving fast. If you're a seller, this is a fantastic time to list. If you're a buyer, you need to be prepared to act quickly.

Cape Coral Condos & Townhouses

Takeaway: The condo market in Cape Coral is also seeing a surge in activity. Closed sales are up over 24%, median sales drop of 6.5% and inventory is down almost 18%. This is a strengthening market for condos with buyers demand that is clearly increasing due to the lower year over year prices.
