TRENDS – A Pre-Season Market Analysis

 We are proud to introduce the latest edition of TRENDS, a market report that we recently published, that offers a high-level summary of the Sarasota and Manatee real estate markets and summarizes real estate transactions at the neighborhood level.

This “Pre-Season Edition” summarizes this year’s activity through the end of August, and compares transaction data to the same period in the previous year.   It is our hope that this will be a valuable guide for you in answering some of the most difficult questions you face when purchasing or selling a home.  Such as, how much is my home really worth, what types of homes are selling the fastest in my neighborhood or what premium should I expect to pay to live on the water?

TRENDS was compiled from data available in the My Florida Regional MLS.  We hope it will help enlighten you on general market conditions, but it should not be solely relied upon to determine a fair market value for any single property.

If you would like to discuss today’s market value of a particular property, we would welcome the opportunity to provide you with a more in-depth analysis.  Please fill out the contact us page or email us directly at toni.schemmel@sothebysrealty.com.
