What drives property values in Naples to move up and down?

Over time, the worth of a home will fluctuate up and down. Usually, property values appreciate in the long term. But, of course, in real estate there are no guarantees.

When your home appreciates you have a more valuable asset to borrow against, and you'll create a better profit when you sell. But how will you know what you're investing in now will appreciate over time? Property values in Naples waver for a variety of reasons. It's critical that you select an agent in Naples who can identify the factors that influence local prices.

The economy is assumed to be the number one factor affecting real estate appreciation. After all, mortgage rates, unemployment, job growth, government programs and many other national factors have a measurable effect on your property's worth. However, your property's value and the elements that play the most significant role in its appreciation are specific to the local Naples economy and housing market.

So when it comes to holding their value, these communities usually appreciate much more reliably than areas lacking key features.

Real estate sales trends - Are homes on the market 30, 60, or 90 days or even longer? What was the final sales amount compared to the asking price? A lot of data can often be retrieved from public records, but a good agent with access to the local MLS will often be able to provide a more complete picture.

Appreciation history - Have home prices increased or decreased over the last 5 to 10 years? Is the neighborhood thought to be desirable because of its location or affordability?

Local economy - Is there a nice combination of job types in an area, or does it depend on just one industry? Have companies moved into or away from an area? Are local businesses hiring? Each of these factors plays a role.
