Fort Myers Housing Market Overview

The housing market in Fort Myers features a mix of waterfront homes, single-family residences, and condos, with options across various budgets and lifestyles. The Fort Myers real estate market has seen a slight dip in recent months. The median home price has decreased by 1.3% YoY to $382,500. Properties now stay on the market for an average of 41 days, a decrease from 58 days this time last year. Over time, Fort Myers has seen consistent property value growth, with demand fueled by its coastal charm, strong rental yields, and increasing popularity among retirees.

On the other hand, home sales have slowed. Only 112 homes were sold this month, marking a 24.8% decrease year-over-year. This downturn suggests lower competition and reduced buyer activity. However, Fort Myers remains a significant part of Southwest Florida's economy. Known for its beautiful beaches, outdoor lifestyle, and retirement communities, Fort Myers continues to attract both domestic and international buyers. In order to capitalize on current conditions, sellers should price their homes realistically. Moreover, offering concessions could lead to a quicker sale.

Fort Myers Housing Supply

Fort Myers is an attractive market for real estate investors due to its growing demand and its appeal as a coastal destination. The number of Fort Myers homes for sale has increased to 1,162, a 23% rise from last year. This includes 270 new listings entering the market. The Fort Myers housing supply currently stands at 10.5 months, up from 6.3 months the previous year. This indicates a more balanced market, with slower activity compared to last year.

Fort Myers’ housing supply levels follow seasonal trends. During the spring and summer months, the market typically sees a spike in home listings. Both buyers and sellers are active, hoping to close deals before the school year begins, or before the season changes. Fort Myers offers a charming blend of suburban comfort and natural beauty, which drives demand and migration to the city. Popular neighborhoods like Gulf Harbour, Palmetto Point, and Cape Coral provide diverse inventory options, ranging from waterfront properties to single-family homes. The city’s strong infrastructure, access to stunning beaches, and proximity to major highways further enhance its appeal.

Fort Myers Housing Demand

Fort Myers' real estate market has seen decreased competition recently. Only 3.6% of Fort Myers homes sold above their list price, a 5.2 percentage point drop from last year. On the other hand, 41.7% of homes saw price drops, a 0.7 percentage point rise YoY. Moreover, the sale-to-list price ratio fell to 94.5% in recent months. This means that sellers now get an average of 5.5% below their asking price for homes.

Under these circumstances, it’s strategic pricing and the sale-to-list price ratio that determines who holds the negotiation power. As a home seller, if you price your house accurately from the start, you can avoid the need for price reductions. You could also offer concessions to buyers rather than drop your asking price at the outset. If the sale-to-list price ratio is less than 100%, expect buyers to offer a much lower price on your home. If you’re a buyer, focus on homes with extended listing periods. Also, consider homes with prior price reductions for more negotiation opportunities.

Seller’s Market

Balanced: Neither buyers nor sellers dominate the market. Supply meets demand, prices stay stable, and both parties negotiate on an equal footing.

Fort Myers' housing market has historically shifted between buyer-friendly and seller-friendly conditions. Like the broader Florida real estate market, the Fort Myers housing market can favor both buyers and sellers based on seasonal trends. When competition is low and inventory increases, buyers have more room for negotiation. On the other hand, sellers can benefit from higher prices and quicker sales during periods when demand outpaces supply.

Additionally, if the months of Fort Myers’ housing supply rise above the US real estate market’s balanced conditions (5 to 6 months), buyers are likely to have more time to explore their options. Awareness of these market dynamics can help you time your purchase or sale more strategically.
