Naples: A Buyer’s Market Brimming with Possibilities
Naples is shining bright for buyers right now!

This translates to roughly 9.8 months of supply, giving buyers plenty of options and negotiating power. The median closed price in May 2025 was $600,000, down slightly from $605,000 in May 2024, and homes are taking about 65 days to sell for condos and 59 days for single-family homes.

The median home price is holding steady at $382,500, down just 1.3% year-over-year, showing the market’s resilience. Homes are selling faster, averaging 41 days on the market (down from 58 days last year), though 41.7% of listings see price reductions, giving buyers a chance to snag a deal.
