Rates on 30-year mortgages slipped to 6.3% from 6.34% last week, while rates on 15-year mortgages dropped to 5.53% from 5.55% last week.

WASHINGTON — The average rate on a 30-year U.S. mortgage edged lower this week, returning to its lowest level in about a year.

The average long-term mortgage rate slipped to 6.3% from 6.34% last week, mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said Thursday. A year ago, the rate averaged 6.32%.

The modest drop brings the average rate back to where it was two weeks ago, after a string of declines brought down home loan borrowing costs to their lowest level since early October 2024.

The Naples real estate market proved resilient this summer, with strong buyer activity and steady home values. According to the August 2025 Market Report by the Naples Area Board of REALTORS® (NABOR®), closed sales rose 11% year-over-year, reaching 604 transactions compared to 544 in August 2024.

While inventory declined month over month, it still grew 9.1% annually to 4,892 properties. Experts note some sellers temporarily pulled homes from the market, creating a “shadow inventory,” while rising pending sales signaled renewed buyer confidence.

The Village of Estero passed its 2025-26 budget last week. With a millage rate of 0.73, it has one of the lowest tax rates in Florida with residents to pay 73 cents in taxes for every $1,000 of their property’s value.

Kevin Greenville, the Village's finance director, says pushing the rate lower has been intentional since Estero was incorporated.

The Lee County residential real estate market continued to decline in August, with single-family home prices and sales activity reflecting ongoing correction following the 2022 post-pandemic surge. Inventory levels reached a 6.7-month supply, up 21.4% year-over-year but slightly lower than July, positioning the market in mild buyer’s territory. Median single-family home prices fell to $353,238, down 4.7% since January and 5.8% from August 2024, while pending sales increased 22%, signaling renewed buyer interest.

Sales activity slowed seasonally, with 1,072 closed transactions in August, an 8.8% year-over-year decline, and homes spending longer on the market (median 51 days). The condo sector experienced sharper declines, with median prices down 11.3% to $248,000, inventory extending to 11.1 months, and units taking 105 days to sell on average. Broader economic factors—including interest rate uncertainty, rising insurance premiums, increased HOA fees, and higher condo supply from new construction—contributed to the downturn.

Despite these challenges, realtors noted that long-term homeowners remain in strong equity positions, and potential interest rate cuts could reignite market activity.

Fort Myers Beach is moving forward with plans to rebuild its pier, destroyed by Hurricane Ian in 2022. Lee County put the million project out for bid this week, marking a major step toward construction. Awaiting a permit from the Army Corps of Engineers, work is expected to begin early next year after and finish by early 2027, more than a year ahead of schedule. The Fort Myers Beach Local Planning Agency approved construction during sea turtle nesting season to avoid delays. The new 16,000-square-foot pier will be 12 feet wide, include three shade structures and use concrete decking and stronger pilings. Lighting will be mounted on handrails to reduce wildlife impacts, and officials may repurpose old pilings into an artificial reef.

Naples, Fla. (July 25, 2025) – Even with predicted decreases in home inventory during the summer, buyers searching homes in Naples will enjoy more options this summer than any summer in the last 10 years. According to the June 2025 Market Report by the Naples Area Board of REALTORS® (NABOR®),  inventory increased 18.2 percent to 5,885 homes from 4,978 homes in June 2024. Along with a healthy pool of options, a moderate softening of home prices sparked a 1.5 percent increase in both pending and closed sales during June. Broker analysts reviewing the report said the 1,282 sellers who removed their homes from the market during June will miss out on what may become a very good summer for sales in Naples.

“Traditionally, we tend to see more bargain hunters during the summer,” said Sherry Stein, CRB, Managing Broker, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Florida Realty. “Prices have relaxed slightly over the last few months, and this is bringing more buyers back to Naples who were previously priced out of our market.”
