North Captiva Vacations

North Captiva is a great place to vacation during all seasons. There is a great variety of island homes for rent and at various price ranges. The busiest season is between Valentines Day and Easter, and the second busiest time is in the summer months. If you'd like to have the entire beach to yourself, come in the Autumn months when the island is almost deserted. To see some of the vacation homes for rent on the island, visit or website at www.northcaptiva.net .

Captiva Island Real Estate

Here I am again to comment on the real estate market on North Captiva Island Florida. Currently, inventory has grown to about 100 listings on the island. Over recent years I have seen the inventory fluctuate between 65-110 listings. We are in a buyers market at the moment. I still believe, though, that North Captiva is undervalued relative to other places in Florida and that the longer term fundamentals are bright. Since this island real estate market saw less speculation than other FL areas over the last 24 months, it will also take less time to digest. The neat thing about this market, is that one big buyer can change everything very quickly. Visit my North Captiva Real Estate website for more island info.
