We’re beefing up! Fort Myers Real Estate market is getting stronger. 25% stronger than last year, to be exact. Here are the numbers to prove it.
The answer
The market is getting stronger. Demand is up while supply is down.
Crunching the numbers
Homes sold
10% more homes sold in August 2026 than did in 2025. This is a signal that buyer demand is strengthening.
Housing inventory
The supply of homes is tightening. There are now fewer options for buyers to choose from.
If no new homes came on the market, it would take 5 months for all existing inventory to be “absorbed” by buyer demand.
Sales Price
Sales prices are down 5%. But this does not always mean that prices are falling.
Why?
Because unless those exact homes sold this month last year, it doesn’t indicate whether values are up or down. It could be that more or less expensive homes sold during that period.
