Happy Halloween and if you are lucky enough to be on Sanibel/Captiva, I bet you are enjoying our first cooler temperatures since last winter. Forecasters thought it would go down to 59 degrees F last night with a high today of just 75 expected. Not to worry though, it is projected to be back to 80 by Sunday, after another week with plenty of blue sky and sunshine.

Halloween Décor & More

Yesterday, I took my annual pre-Trick or Treat drive around some of the island communities. I did not see as many decorations as in years past, but as always Gumbo Limbo had the most. With many families living there, it has always been the “go to” spot for kiddo Halloween fun. I also found some yard decorations up on The Dunes.

If you have not been in Gumbo Limbo in a while, the neighborhood is looking fresh. Their private roads have recently been repaved, and a couple of new stops signs have been added at intersections that did not have them previously.

Continued Restoration & Improvements

Kona Kai Motel at 1539 Periwinkle Way reopened with their ribbon-cutting yesterday. I was the selling agent when the owners purchased it in 2010 and their post-storm rebuild has made it better than ever. Offering accommodations including motel rooms, efficiencies, and suites, check them out at www.KonaKaiMotel.com.

Sanibel’s Shared Use Paths – On my travels down the length of the Gulf Drives, it was nice to see that the repair/repaving of the shared use paths have made it from the lighthouse all the way to in front of Pointe Santo.

Pointe Santo – Speaking of Pointe Santo, I received the launch of their new quarterly newsletter yesterday. It describes their new Paradise Pointe Pavilion next to the pool and advises that construction is beginning in the all-new Building F which will house the Pointe Santo Office and their signature children’s programs. This new building should be ready next year, in the meantime, the children’s programs are expected to return before the end of this year. News about where/when will be posted on their new website, www.PointeSanto.com.

Sanibel & Captiva Islands Association of Realtors

The local of Association Realtors did not meet this week, but next Thursday is when our local Caravan Meetings return to a weekly “season” schedule and rotate again from East to West. Properties east of Rabbit Rd are considered for the East tour, while those west including Captiva are eligible for the West. The meetings are at the Association Office at 9 a.m. with Caravan tours to follow from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Each tour is limited to ten properties.

Since last Friday, five new island sales have been posted in the SanCap MLS, a Sanibel condo, a Captiva condo, and three Sanibel homes. During the same time, there were 10 new listings and 23 price changes.

Seeing so many new listings and price reductions, reminds me of a post I saw earlier this week from a respected friend and Realtor (of 47 years). It covers real estate pricing in a nutshell, saying: “Your house isn’t worth what you owe. It isn’t worth what you need. It isn’t worth what you put into it. It’s worth what a buyer will pay today. Period.”

Below, with data from the island MLS are summary tables of the residential sales statistics, followed by the details of the MLS action reported this week.

Wishing you Halloween treats – no tricks!

Susan Andrews, aka SanibelSusan

Following another week of beautiful sunshiny weather, it was fun to hear that there could be a cool front in Florida by Halloween next week. But since it is the islands, a cool front means maybe into the 70’s (degrees F) during the days, 60’s at night.

Plenty of spooky fall events are advertised between now and the end of the month, beginning with the Annual Fall Festival at The Community House today 4 to 6 p.m.

Continuing to also keep eyes on the tropical activity in the Caribbean, the count-down is on to the end of hurricane season (November 30). Maybe the cool down that is forecast will be a deterrent to that storm.

The end of sea turtle nesting season also is wrapping up (end of October). 2025 hatchling counts are up, after a 10-year low last year.

Seen on West Gulf Drive

Now that the warm no-rain days have dried up most of the roadway swales, island birds have been congregating in the few that must have something appealing in them. Midweek, there were huge numbers, many species (egrets, roseate spoonbills, heron, & more) in the water remaining along the roadway at Sand Pointe and across the street in Seagull Estates.

Yesterday afternoon when I traveled by to see them again, they were gone. Gotta love Sanibel, where nature, wildlife, and humans continue to co-exist.

Seen on Periwinkle Way

It was great to see more action on Periwinkle Way this week. Many have wondered when work will begin at the former Dairy Queen. The good news there is that the City approved their permit this week so activity is underway. The selling agent advises that though this will not be another DQ, it will be an affordable lunch/burger spot. Hopefully, to reopen in the spring.

Across the street and up the road a-bit, plenty of rebuilding/restoration has been going on at The Anchor Inn. This week, their new sign went up and their landscaping cleaned up with replanting underway. It is so good to see improvement on Sanibel’s main corridor.

October Scoop

Many island organization annual meetings, program schedules, and fundraisers are scheduled and being advertised. Tickets for SCCF’s annual benefit, Wines in the Wild, were sold out the same morning they became available so be sure to keep an eye out for events that interest you.

As the islands continue to bounce back, changes in rules and fees with homeowners and condo associations are important in this real estate business. Some of them expect big fee reductions in 2026. Some are still dealing with restorations, some with contractor lawsuits and insurance delays; others with small business loans; some with City permits and incomplete amenities that affect re-openings.

Thankfully, our local Association of Realtors is top-notch when it comes to cooperation and communication. The SanibelSusan Team chats often with colleagues looking for ways to get listings sold. I got a call from another Realtor just this week that was told to call me for an honest opinion on what the asking price needs to be to get one of her listings sold fast. The details I learned about that Association are shocking, both in fees and possible changes.

The common theme is that few listings are getting showings. Serious buyers are hard to find. Rentals are off, as are future bookings, even though many accommodations are offering free or discounted nights and other special promotions.

Many colleagues also think that owners depending on rental income, with none for three years, could be desperate to sell this winter. Stand by, that may mean more serious price reductions in the days ahead – and more listings, but with a storm-free year and increased visitor traffic, the market will eventually take a turn.

In the meantime, there are plenty of offerings for savvy purchasers. There are properties that are better than when they were new. Some are new. Some are still awaiting completion and/or furnishings. Others are remediated, but in post-Ian condition. A few are like they were three years ago. It really is a great time to buy, Never in my 33+years here has there been such a variety of choices and this will change as the market stabilizes.

Now, let’s find ways to get more visitors here again.

Sanibel & Captiva Islands Association of Realtors

The local Association of Realtors had their annual meeting yesterday. A Caravan Meeting plus Halloween Costume Contest followed, then open houses at two Sanibel homes. The next Caravan Meeting is November 6, when Richard Johnson from Bailey’s General Store will be guest speaker.

Since last Friday, six new sales have been posted in the SanCap MLS, a Sanibel condo and five Sanibel homes. During the same time, there were 11 new listings and 19 price changes.

No need for weather watching on Sanibel and Captiva Islands this week as it was beautiful, while the East Coast of Florida and most of the U.S. felt the brunt of heavy wind and rain coming in from the Atlantic that caused flooding in many of those areas. Instead, here, there has been hardly a drop. It is a relief to see many roadway swales now dry – a good indication that the local rainy season is wrapping up.

View today from Sundial Resort East #R401. Top-floor protected corner. Fully equipped.

More restoration, construction, and recovery projects also are evident during my weekly drive-arounds and teammate Dave’s Friday property checks. The Sanibel shared-use paths are being repaired and resurfaced with many already looking fantastic from the Lighthouse to East Gulf to Middle Gulf.

Though the roadways themselves are often empty and vacation occupancy appears light, snowbirds already are arriving with many of them also busy with work at their properties. Slowly, but surely, the islands are coming back, stronger and more resilient.

There seemed to be more vehicles at Periwinkle Place this week and the east end shops in Olde Sanibel always look busy. It is encouraging too to see more activity at the Village Shops. 

Also, it was good news this week to hear that A Bit of Bailey’s (on Rabbit Rd) has already expanded their hours. They are open every day from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. and in addition to groceries, now offer well-priced breakfasts, lunches, and dinners to-go. When in doubt, grab the chicken salad, it is delish anytime.

Sanibel & Captiva Islands Association of Realtors

The local Association of Realtors did not meet this week, but next Thursday is the Annual Meeting following by a Caravan.

Since last Friday, 10 new sales have been posted in the SanCap MLS, three Sanibel condos and seven Sanibel homes. During the same time, there were nine new listings and 11 price changes.

Also, our commercial condo listing at Lime Tree Center #4, 1640 Periwinkle Way was reduced to $324K. That is a fair price and a great spot for a professional office or retail shop. It is ~987 sq. ft. with all new interior, roof, & more.

Following another week of weather watching, it has been mostly sunny again here on the islands as Florida’s East Coast continues to receive daily showers. There have been occasional showers here also, but just enough to keep the tropical vegetation green and wildlife happy. Daytime temperatures are still in the mid-to-high 80’s (degrees F) while it gets down into the low 70’s at night.

Though it has been overcast often today, the sun is out now and the Columbus Day weekend should have perfect weather. Little to no rain is expected on the island from tomorrow through next week.

Island Happenings

With an abundance of fall and winter schedules firming up, it looks like a storm-free summer has returned many island activities that locals and visitors enjoy and added plenty of new ones – from spooky Halloween fun to Thanksgiving and holiday sales and events that should contribute to restoration and more business.

In the real estate world, it remains a buyers’ market with more inventory than purchasers, but there has recently been positive news, particularly as condo associations are working on their plans for next year. Mariner Pointe, as an example, has noticed owners that their draft 2026 budget is more than 25% less than their 2025. Their Board of Directors is expected to approve the new budget next week. Changes like that should help sales.

Sanibel & Captiva Islands Association of Realtors

The local Association of Realtors had a Caravan meeting yesterday with three properties open after the meeting for easy viewing – two Sanibel condos at Tennisplace and a Sanibel Seaspray home. The next meeting with Caravan is the Annual Meeting on October 23 when yearly reports will be presented and election results announced.

Since last Friday, six new sales have been posted in the SanCap MLS, two Sanibel condos and four Sanibel homes. During the same time, there were five new listings and 24 price reductions.

October Island Happenings

• ·        Sanibel Farmers Market – reopens for the 18^th season this weekend, on Sunday, October 5 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on City Hall grounds. It is the place to be every Sunday morning until May. They expect 50 vendors this year. See the Local Roots schedule for all their markets at www.BuyLocalLee.com. A ninth is opening in November.
• ·        Mucky Duck – does not have a restaurant reopening date yet, though they report it is getting closer. They announced this week that their beach-cam is up and running with a new camera on the roof rather than on the patio. It will eventually be adjusted once all the new software is installed. New palm trees will be planted also, but in the meanwhile, if you are looking for that Muck Duck view or sunset, check it out at www.muckyduck.com/beach-cam/·
• San-Cap Motor Club Monthly Cruise-Ins – The first season event is tomorrow, Saturday, October 4 from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. at Periwinkle Place Shops. Running through May, the cruise-ins are back to the first Saturday of each month. They are open to the public. No registration is required. Blue Giraffe Island Bar & Grill will be serving breakfast tacos and more. More info about joining the Club at www.SanCapMotorClub.com
• Sanibel Ball Fields – are expected to be ready mid-October. Remember when they became a tent city for federal and state relief workers following Ian? Then, after restoration and opening briefly in May last year, they were further damaged by Helene and Milton. Now, restored even better, they are sporting more salt-tolerant grass. It won’t be long before these fields are again busy with teams and the public having fun.

Sanibel & Captiva Islands Association of Realtors

The local Association of Realtors did not meet this week but the next Caravan next Thursday, October 9.

Wednesday, I attended the Florida Realtors (FR) Forms Update Webinar presented by Juana Watkins, FR General Counsel and VP of Law and Public Policy. It covered changes to Flood Disclosures, New Rental Forms, and Listing Agreements.

·        The result of Florida statute changes, the Florida Realtors flood disclosure as of October 1 requires that Sellers indicate whether they have or do not have knowledge of flooding damage at a property. Sellers also must further disclose if they received any assistance (federal, state, local, charities, etc.)

·        Also as of October 1, any leases for a year or longer must also include a flood disclosure from the landlord.

·        By September 30, local MLS’s (Multiple Listing Services) were required by NAR (National Association of Realtors) to update their marketing offerings to comply with new national requirements. The new changes to Florida Realtor Listing Agreements merely now include any local MLS rules.

Since last Friday, two new sales have been posted in the SanCap MLS, a Sanibel condo and a Sanibel home.

This is the time of the year when more listings start coming on the market. The arrival of snowbirds also usually brings more sales. Last quarter and first quarter for decades have recorded the most real estate action on the islands. Bring it on!

Below, with data from the island MLS are summary tables of the residential sales statistics, followed by the details of the MLS action reported this week.

Another super-duper quiet week on the islands, but it was back to mostly blue skies, with eyes keeping watch on the storms in the Atlantic. Just two more months to go to reach the end of hurricane season 2025. Most afternoons, the big popcorn clouds try to come onto the islands. Against the bright blue sky, they are always a fun summer surprise.

Every time I do another island drive-around, I am surprised at the evidence of more restoration – new homes are going up, some brand-new construction, others being raised. Seriously damaged homes also continue to be demolished. During a spin through Gulf Shores yesterday, I saw three more homes removed/totally gone, three others under new construction, and another ground-level being elevated. Amazing that almost three years after Ian so much recovery continues.

Another Friday is here. This week passed the midway mark of the 2025 hurricane season. It is usually the last half of season when activity increases but we continue to hope for a reprieve while staying prepared, with an eye on the forecast. Meanwhile, the usual rainy season goes on with a mix of sunshine plus occasional showers. Daytime temperatures are getting a tad cooler, into the mid-80’s (degrees F) with my hibiscus, bougainvillea, and beach roses providing a nice burst of color amid the lush greenery.

When the sun came out briefly this afternoon and after our team property checks, I took a drive around Sanibel, then out to Captiva. A few Captiva pix showing the gulf and bay waters are below. I also noticed several utility work vehicles on San-Cap Rd, new signs at Casa Mariposa (2301 Periwinkle Way) and at Glass Casa Vacation Rentals (formerly VIP Vacation Rentals at 1505 Periwinkle Way), and more ground-level homes being elevated. It may be the quiet month of the year, but progress continues!

Periwinkle Way Milling & Resurfacing Project

Sanibel Public Works Department announced that the Periwinkle Way Milling and Resurfacing Project is scheduled to begin on Monday, September 15. The stretch of Periwinkle included is from 500’ west of Casa Ybel Rd to approximately 1/3 mile east of Donax St. The work will begin with drainage repairs along the north side of Periwinkle including the installation of swales and concrete pipes on Main St, Fitzhugh St, Palm St, and Center St. Work hours for the drainage repair work will be between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m.

Within the next few weeks, milling and paving of Periwinkle will start, occurring in the evening and overnight hours, from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. The City will provide notice through a news release and post info on the City’s Facebook page and website when this phase is set to begin. Access to residences and businesses will be maintained. The entire project is expected to take about 120 days, weather permitting.

Sanibel & Captiva Islands Association of Realtors

Enjoy your weekend, Susan Andrews, aka SanibelSusan

Here it is another Friday again with mostly sunshine this week. Dodged raindrops yesterday afternoon and this morning.

There have been several exciting reports of Junonia findings on the beach, while the hidden painted shell events over the holiday weekend also were successful.

Otherwise, it has been quiet here again this week. With summer wrapping up and school years started, September typically is the slowest month of the year on-island. Many locals and visitors are looking forward to the months ahead, often keeping eyes on forecasts and storms in the Atlantic. Fingers crossed that none of those find their way to SW Florida this year. So far, so good.

September Scoop

Several island businesses have announced they will be briefly closed this month. It is a positive sign that “season” is right around the corner when facilities schedule their annual deep cleans, repairs, and maintenance, with their employees often getting breaks too.

Lighthouse Café of Sanibel – has been closed this week but reopens Monday morning.

Over Easy Café – will be closed from September 8-18.

Tarpon Bay Explorers – will be closed September 7-30, with plans to reopen October 1. The closure includes their recreational areas as well as their launch ramp.

The City also announced yesterday that vegetation trimming on Periwinkle Way will begin Monday and is scheduled to complete (weather permitting) by Wednesday, September 17. It will be on both sides of the road, including the shared use path with work to be performed between 7:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. Travel with caution.

Captiva Beach Renourishment Project

The Captiva Erosion Protection District advises that Turner Beach Park will be closed to the public, beginning today September 5, for staging equipment and material for the upcoming Captiva Beach Renourishment Project. Soon to begin, construction is scheduled to run continuously 24 hours a day over an estimated 56-day period.

October When Pre-Season Begins

Sanibel Farmers’ Market will reopen for its 18^th season on Sunday, October 5 at 9 a.m. with a celebration of cultures from around the world. Vendors and shoppers are invited to show off their heritage with flags, shirts, and attire. Enjoy global flavors, handmade crafts, their colorful flag ceremony, fresh produce, and more. Located on the City Hall back parking lot, Sanibel Farmers Market is every Sunday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. through May.

Other local market days/times are posted on BuyLocalLee.com. Those are at Babcock Ranch, Boca Grande, Captiva Island, Lakes Park, Coconut Point, Bonita Springs, and Gateway.

Sanibel & Captiva Islands Association of Realtors

At the Sanibel-Captiva Caravan Meeting yesterday, guest speaker. Matt Simmons, appraiser with Maxwell, Hendry, & Simmons discussed the tax appeal process and contesting a TRIM notice property valuation.

In Lee County TRIM notices were mailed on August 18, making September 12 the deadline for filing a tax appeal. That process is quasi-judicial – meaning hiring an attorney is not required. The process involves the following steps:

·        Appeal is filed

·        Informal Status – engage in negotiation or wait for hearing date to be issued

·        Exchange of Evidence

·        Pre-Hearing Negotiations

·        Hearing before a Magistrate

·        Magistrate issues Ruling

·        Value Adjustment Board Meets & Issues Final Rulings

·        File a Challenge in Circuit Court.

Following the meeting, three listings were open for easy viewing, a Sundial condo and two homes in The Dunes. The next meeting in two weeks will be the monthly membership meeting followed by Caravan.

September is usually when inventory is low with more listings gradually coming on the market as winter nears. We advise our sellers that if they want to sell, they should keep their property listed. This business is always full of surprises, including when buyers appear. Always be prepared for them!

With two-thirds of the year over already, below is a summary of closed Sanibel sales year-to-date by primary location, as reported in the Sanibel-Captiva MLS.

Enjoy your weekend,

So much for my many weeks describing summer blue skies and sunshine. It was a washout on the island last weekend with heavy rain off-and-on most of Saturday and Sunday, both day and night. Monday through Wednesday continued with a few showers and more clouds than sunshine but yesterday and today were again bright blue days.

Looking at the tropics, the forecasters say that it is almost halfway thru hurricane season. Peak is September 10. Though they expect Florida will remain juicy through the holiday with some rain likely, they also report that this is the first Labor Day weekend in many years where there are no immediate worries of serious storms.

We hope the long weekend, and good weather bring more visitors as it was very quiet on the islands again this week. In my travels this afternoon, I took a picture of the higher new construction at the new Shalimar Beach Resort which is being landscaped and getting closer to being opened (end of September scheduled). At 2823 West Gulf Dr it will feature one- and two-bedroom villa beachside cottages, plus studios in the roadside hotel building shown below.

Shalimar 08-29-2025

Also big and tall is the new White Pelican Villas building which is going up where the former Beachview Cottages were at 3325 West Gulf Dr, next door to Lantana. That project is expected to be done in early 2026.

Florida Realtors is strong in members, financially healthy, leads the industry with a bright strategic plan, and continues to offer outstanding training/education and member benefits.
