Demand for Gulf-Front Condos in Naples Remains Strong
The owners of unit 161 at Bayshores spent years making this condo their own. They renovated it from top to bottom, furnished it with care, and built a full life in one of Vanderbilt Beach’s most intimate waterfront communities. When the time came to move on and be closer to aging family in Texas, they chose to do it right. They were patient, intentional, and willing to wait for the right buyer.
The listing did what a great listing should do. It found the right buyer through their agent, went under contract in three weeks, and closed 30 days later at $1,800,000, cash.
