Sarasota Real Estate Market Overview

The Sarasota real estate market is currently leaning toward buyers. Home prices have stabilized after several years of growth, with the county median just below $500,000. While luxury estates on Siesta Key, Bird Key, and Longboat Key can exceed $10 million, increased inventory has given buyers more leverage and variety.

For homeowners planning to sell, it may be beneficial to list their property sooner rather than later to stay ahead of potential market adjustments. Get detailed pricing insights and current absorption rates in our Sarasota Market Report.
