Over time, the worth of a piece of real estate will fluctuate up and down.
Home values appreciate in the long term generally.
But, in real estate there is always a certain amount of risk.
When your home appreciates you have more resources to borrow against, and you get a better profit when you sell.
Property values in Naples rise and fall for many different reasons, so how will you be sure what you're buying presently won't depreciate the day after you close?
Choosing a real estate agent in Naples who is familiar with the factors that drive local prices is the most important thing to consider.
The economy is assumed to be the most influential factor affecting real estate appreciation.
Clearly,
there are many issues on a national level that change your house's value: unemployment, interest rates, the stock market, and more.
But the most influential issues that determine your home's value depend on the local Naples economy and housing market.
Access to services - Most people want homes in the districts with the most convenient amenities, such as our work and schools.
So those areas generally appreciate, or hold their value, best.
Prior home sales - Are homes on the market 30, 60, or 90 days or even longer? What was the selling price versus the asking price? Some information can often be retrieved from public records, but a good agent with a login to the local MLS will often be able to provide a more complete picture.
The appreciation history - Is the neighborhood considered desirable because of its location or affordability? Have house prices increased or decreased over the last 5 to 10 years?
Economic factors - Have companies moved into or away from an area? Are local companies hiring? Is there a good blend of jobs in an area, or does it rely upon just one industry?
All these play a part.
