“Luis was absolutely AMAZING! He went above and beyond to make sure we found the perfect home for our family within our budget. Luis was very attentive to every detail in the home buying process. I can not express how grateful we are for Luis.”
“Catherine Calix is an experienced and hard working real estate professional. She did an excellent job in bringing prospective buyers to our house and then helping us close the sale. We highly recommend her.”
“Great expreience start to finish. I threw some challenging cureballs and she dealt with them professionally and quickly. I would definatlely use her again for any selling or buyiong I had to do in the area. 5 star experience.”
“Meaghan got a fast sale in a questionable market. She also made sure that we didn't give away the property either. I loved the way she handled the sale like it was her own home and her family would be involved. I would recommend her to you without reservation.”
“We started to pirchase homes from Laurine between 8-9 years ago. All of our purchases were sight unseen. We live in Nebraska and wanted to start making out way south for warmer weather. We spoke extensively to Laurine about exactly what I wanted for a house. We were not willing to compromise. She took the time to do research on the homes. How many people are able to purchase a home at the sole direction of a realtor they had never met before? Laurine is knowledgeable and direct and honest. I feel this speaks to the professionalism of Laurine. I believe this is the 6th house I have purchased from her. We are here just finishing up another purchase and all went flawlessly. I have close relatives who are transitioning her and are using Laurine as their realtor as well. We will only use Laurine for our home purchases because I know she is more than experienced and has so much knowledge. We plan on another purchase within the next year and Laurine will be our realtor.”
“Larry did a phenomenal job helping me sell my home. He went well above and beyond - connecting me with contractors, and advising me with his expertise along the way. I always felt like he had my best interest at heart. Highly recommend.”
“Debra is a true Superstar! Not only did she help us find our forever home for retirement, she drove over an hour each way to get to the area we were looking at, and she did that several times over the course of two weeks for inspections and closing. Debra knows this business and is a true professional in every sense. Thank you so much for your hard work, and thank you for being our friend. (You too Dave 😁) Joel & Marlene”
“Becky was incredible to work with and helped us not only with the purchase of our home in Florida, but was a huge help through our whole process of moving from Minnesota and even assisted with finding a rental until we could find a place to build. Truly went above and beyond and took the time to really understand what we want. Highly recommend!”
“Realtor for us was Jen Tobey. She came to initial meeting prepared and educated. She is professional & and market knowledgeable. We signed up with her. She showed the home several times and gave us good feedback. When the house was sold the process went smoothly, even though it was a probate sale. All of my phone calls, emails and text messages were immediately answered. What a pleasure working with her after dealing with courts, judges, banks, lawyers, financial advisors, retailers, inspectors and roofers to name a few. We also had a wonderful title company handle the closing.”
“Michelle was great to work with. She helped us through each process of purchasing our new home. She made herself available for all questions and concerns.”
“Linda provided professional information about the property, it's value in the marketplace and how best to get it sold. The process was seamless.”
“Working with David Lovitch to sell my home was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. His professionalism, market expertise, and attention to detail truly set him apart. From the moment we listed, David developed a smart pricing strategy, arranged beautiful marketing materials, and coordinated every showing with care and precision. What impressed me most was David’s communication — I always knew what was happening, and he provided honest, insightful advice every step of the way. The negotiation process was handled flawlessly, and he secured an excellent offer that exceeded my expectations. Thanks to David, the entire selling experience was smooth, stress-free, and successful. I couldn’t have asked for a better agent — I’d highly recommend David Lovitch to anyone looking to sell their home with confidence and ease.”
“We had worked with Julie when we purchased this property so when we decided to sell, it was a "no brainer," she knew us and knew the property. Even though the market was not as favorable as hoped, she stood by us, encouraged and updated us frequently. We have nothing but the highest regards for her professional services, in fact, more than once she went out of her way to make this sale possible. Every good trait you would expect from a realtor, she delivered. No high pressure just I'm here to help you attitude.”
“I highly recommend Rich Noto for new home construction. He was a fantastic advocate throughout my build, especially since I was relocating from Pennsylvania to Florida. Living states away, he sent detailed videos of construction progress and found defects during various inspections. His communication and availability far exceeded my expectations. Rich has a keen eye for potential issues and a deep understanding of building codes that many other agents, and even some inspectors, might miss. He truly knows the critical phases of construction, from the foundation on, and when to schedule inspections. He understands the tricks builders use to hide problems and is a fierce advocate for his clients. I have no doubt he saved me from future headaches. He is an invaluable resource who ensured I ended up with a high-quality home.”
“Alex is one of the best agents I have ever worked with! That's saying a lot since I am a fellow broker and very picky!! My husband and I would highly recommend him!”
“Thank you Valentina for everything you did to help us find our new home. We really appreciate your patience, expertise, and responsiveness every step of the way throughout the entire process. We especially value how you always responded to our questions so quickly, helped us navigate the complex paperwork, found the perfect neighborhood for us. You made the whole process feel so much easier and less stressful. It's been a pleasure working with you, and we’re so glad we had you on my corner. We will not hesitate to refer to friends or family your way when they're ready to buy or sell. Thank you again for your dedication and hard work.”
“Philip was very professional, accommodating and understanding. Once we identified a home we liked and put an offer in, Philip guided us always and provided needed information to keep us on track. He kept the process real and with forward motion. His recommendations were wonderful. I would use Philip again in a heartbeat! Thank you Philip! --Bea”
“Lee and Lisa Mirman helped us successfully think through and negotiate our recent condominium purchase in Sarasota. Their deep knowledge of the local real estate market, and the time they take to comprehensively understand their clients' needs, sets them a league apart. This is the third property (two homes on Bird Key and now a downtown condo) we have purchased with the help and guidance of Lee and Lisa. Each was an exceptional find from a value and lifestyle perspective. We would wholeheartedly recommend Lee and Lisa to any prospective buyer or seller (we sold one house at full asking price through their efforts) of Sarasota real estate.”
“Jessica went above expectations in helping us locate this property. Her knowledge of the area and recommendations facilitated our decision to purchase.”
“Sam sheen realty was FANTASTIC !! I COULDN'T HAVE ASKED FOR BETTER AGENTS”
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Sarasota real estate market, updated for February 2026. *
The typical home value in Sarasota is projected to be $642,500 for the month of January. December’s finalized data reported the typical value of a home in the city to be $605,000—up 9.01% over the previous 12 months. For comparison, county-level data pegged home values at $433,500 in Sarasota County for the most recent reporting period. That number is expected to float around $447,750 in January.
Sarasota had 161 new listings and 96 listings that went under contract in December, increasing the area’s total available inventory to 839—up 0.6% from the previous month. Inventory is projected to have further increased in January.
Of those 839 active listings, 18.83% reduced their price in the month of December. The median listing price for homes in Sarasota fell 1.76% from November to December, bringing the current median listing price to $835,000. Based on projected data for January, listing prices may continue to fall.
The number of days that homes have been on the market prior to going under contract has been fairly steady year-over-year. In December 2025, the median time for a listed property to go pending was 70 days, compared to 66 days in December 2024. In recent months the median number of days from listed to pending appears to be steady. That trend is predicted to have carried through to this January.
