Sarasota County Market Update

Closed sales were down 50% year on year in Sarasota County for single family homes in November. That is a massive drop; however, the market still doesn’t favor buyers at many price points. Inventory levels are at 4 months of sales (on average), so we are still a little short of the 6 months usually referenced as a balanced market. The signals are generally favorable for buyers though as cash sales are no longer the majority of sales in the county. That said, buyers shouldn’t be expecting to cash in on low offer to list price transactions at this time. The infographic below from Florida Realtors has more information.
