Here is what the year looks like.
Hurricane Charley:
- Hurricane Charley made landfall in SWFL on 8/13/2004 near the island of Cayo Costa, Florida as a 150 mph (240 km/h) Category 4 hurricane
- The real estate market was in a boom that was beginning to turn into a mania. Charley brought a lot of attention to the market, brought an influx of insurance money and reduced some inventory.
Hurricane Wilma:
- Hurricane Wilma made landfall in Cape Romano, Florida on Monday, October 24, 2005.
- Statistically, I can prove the SWFL Real Estate market had started divergence to the downside in August of 2005. Wilma caused people up north to pause. Rapidly rising prices compounded this.
- Wilma really ended the manias demand. Leverage is what carried any momentum from there.
SWFL Real estate after Irma: Some numbers of note.
- August 2004 (Charley Landfall) sales were down -23.92% from the previous month.
- October of 2005 (Wilma Landfall) sales were down -27.07% from the previous month.
- September of 2017 (Irma’s landfall) sales were down -41.24% from the previous month.
Notes:
- I am putting more weight on the trends from Charlie than Wilma due to the current trajectory of the market.
- There are 1610 properties pending in Lee County from the last 60 days.
- In the last 10 days 453 properties have went pending. (10/4/2017)

SWFL Real Estate After Irma: Some Thoughts.
- Irma will be a more significant event for Collier and Bonita.
- Kudos to the new building codes. The new construction industry should benefit.
- Older resale’s may have issues with sentiment going forward. Especially older waterfront resale’s.
- Watching the pending thru February will be on my radar. As will the foreclosure filings.
- There will be opportunities in the non-bank distressed market.
- Insurance companies appear to have gotten better at mass events in relation to loss prevention. I have spoke with several people where the insurance company has “approved vendors”. This will have an affect on local contractors.
SWFL Real Estate After Irma: Foreclosures.
- I have seen interviews with public and private individuals referring to a bump in the foreclosures.
- You have to understand the timeline to understand the possible trends.
- The earliest a foreclosure will be filed is roughly 90 days from today. Then you have generally a 6 month process.
- Due to our high percentage of cash sales since 2009. It is unlikely to trigger a mass event like the end of the last cycle.
