Please be on the lookout for this 16-year-old girl who went missing from Collier County two days ago. I just spoke with Sophia’s father. He told me the Sheriff’s Office is looking at all cameras in the area to get a lead. He also wanted to share this message in case Sophia sees it: “please know we are extremely scared and worried about your safety. We just want to know that you're okay and want you home safe.”

Please share this post and if you have any information at all, please contact the Collier County Sheriff’s Office.

Great information below for both buyers and sellers to review in the Gulf Shore Boulevard Quarter 2, 2026 Market Report.

GULF SHORE BOULEVARD NORTH MARKET PERSPECTIVE:

Year-to-date closed sales through June rose 76% year over year to 181—the highest total for that period in the past 10 years, excluding the COVID-driven peak of 2021. Sales on the beach side of the Boulevard led the way with a 95% increase, while the bay side posted a still meaningful 22% gain.

Months of supply on the beach side fell 60% year over year to 6.6 months, bringing that segment into balance. The bay side remained higher at 13.4 months, though down 16% from 15.9 months in 2025.

🏡 For Sellers:
✅ Price for today’s market: Align with current conditions to capture renewed buyer activity.
✅ Don’t dismiss Summer: Buyers are here and units are selling.
✅ Adjust for location: Beach side momentum is stronger, while bay side sellers may need more patience.

🏡 For Buyers:
✅ Act decisively on well positioned beach side properties: Lower supply and stronger sales may create more competition.
✅ Prioritize condition and location: The best properties may still command a premium.
✅ Know each segment: Beach side and bay side conditions may require different strategies.

PELICAN BAY MARKET PERSPECTIVE:

A total of 205 properties closed year to date through June, up 3% from the same period last year and consistent with the 10-year average for first-half sales. New listings declined 15% year over year to 239, 14% below the 10-year average.

As of June 30, 146 properties were available, down 27% from last year. Months of supply was 5.5 months, down 27% year over year and 32% from the end of the first quarter.

🏡 For Sellers:
✅ Price with the market: Balanced supply and steady sales reward accurate positioning.
✅ Use lower summer inventory to your advantage: With fewer competing properties, well-presented homes command attention.
✅ Prepare for today’s buyers: Strong condition, presentation and marketing remain essential.

🏡 For Buyers:
✅ Buy with confidence: Sales remain steady and consistent with long-term norms.
✅ Take advantage of balance: Current supply allows buyers to compare options without excessive pressure.
✅ Recognize the opportunity: A balanced market allows for a less stressful buying experience.
