Sarasota County real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Sarasota County real estate market. *
Latest Monthly Snapshot
September 2026
Monthly Pricing Trends for Sarasota County
Monthly data for the latest available year.
Monthly Inventory and Sales Activity for Sarasota County
Monthly supply and activity totals for the latest available year.
Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Sep 2026).
Inventory in Sarasota County has tightened slightly, with about 5,882 active listings in September and a modest year-over-year decline of just over 5 percent. Months of supply sits around 4.6, down from earlier in the year and below Florida’s 5.6 months, pointing to a more constrained local supply than the state overall.
Contract activity shows a mixed picture, as 1,035 homes sold in September, up more than 15 percent from a year ago, while pending sales are also higher year over year despite a recent monthly dip. New listings have risen both month over month and year over year, suggesting more owners are testing the market even as about 28 percent of homes go off market within two weeks.
Pricing appears to be responding to this balance of steady demand and moderating supply, with the typical home value around $426,545 and up roughly 7 percent from last year. List prices have climbed at a similar pace, yet the average sale-to-list ratio remains under 100 percent and only about 5 percent of homes are selling above list, indicating buyers still have some room to negotiate. Median days on market has stretched to 86, a bit longer than a year ago, reflecting more measured decision-making. Buyers and sellers who want to navigate these nuanced trends can turn to Agent Pronto to connect with a local agent who understands this shifting landscape.

This month, I had the pleasure of purchasing my second condo in Marco Island, and once again, Victor made the entire experience absolutely incredible! Victor is the perfect combination of professionalism, dedication, knowledge, kindness, and genuine friendliness. He doesn't just treat you like another client — he makes you feel like family! From the very beginning until the closing day, he was there every step of the way, answering every question, guiding me through every challenge, and making sure everything worked out in my best interest. What truly sets Victor apart is how much he cares about his clients. He goes above and beyond to find the best opportunities, negotiate the best deals, and make even the most complicated situations feel manageable. He has a special ability to make the impossible possible! Buying a property is a huge milestone, and having someone like Victor by your side makes all the difference. His patience, honesty, attention to detail, and commitment to his clients are simply outstanding. Victor, thank you from the bottom of my heart! Thank you for your hard work, your endless support, your professionalism, and, most importantly, for treating me with such kindness and respect throughout this journey. I couldn't be happier with my experience, and I would recommend Victor Alvarado to anyone looking to buy or sell a property in Marco Island or the surrounding areas. Five stars are simply not enough for the service you provide! You are truly exceptional at what you do, and I look forward to working with you again in the future!”
“My husband and I live in Maine and were researching properties online in the Fort Myers and Cape Coral areas. We filled out a form online for more information and within minutes we heard from Anthony. He set up searches for us based on the criteria we requested and was very patient with us as we changed our minds on our direction a few times along the way. He researched answers to our questions and always provided helpful and informative answers. Anthony lives in the area and made thoughtful recommendations along the way. We couldn't be happier with our experience and our new winter getaway. We will definitely recommend friends who plan to purchase in the future to reach out to Anthony. Thank you for a great experience -we are so excited to have purchased our retirement dream!”
“Carly was awesome throughout our home purchase experience. Very knowledgeable, helpful, and available! Extremely responsive and has a genuine care for her clients! Really appreciate all she did for us!”
“My husband and I used Christian to sell our condo. Christian worked extremely efficiently in getting us listed and conducted two open houses in a short period of time. Market conditions were not the best, but throughout the process, Christian kept us informed of any progress and was very quick to respond to the questions we had along the way. Christian assisted us in negotiating a fair price for our property and his hard work also provided us with a quick and painless closing. I highly recommend Christian and will absolutely use him again for any of our future real estate transactions.”
“"If you want a realtor who doesn't give up, hire Philip DeCarlo. Phil stayed dedicated to selling our land for over two years, always keeping us informed and pushing for the best outcome. Land isn't always easy to move, but his persistence completely paid off. Professional, patient, and highly recommended! Phil is the guy for your real estate needs!”
“Duc is not only my Realtor but also a great friend. He helped us find an amazing investment property in downtown Orlando at an unbeatable price. He answered all our questions upfront and guided us confidently throughout the entire process. We had such a great experience that we’re already working with him to purchase another property!”
“Brandy came highly recommended to me by a trusted friend, and after working with her through the entire sale of my home, I completely understand why. She did a fantastic job from beginning to end. From getting the house ready for the market through the listing, sale, and closing, Brandy made the entire process incredibly easy and well coordinated. She stayed on top of all the details, kept me informed every step of the way, and always made sure I knew what was happening and what came next. She really took care of the moving pieces, which made selling my home much less stressful than I expected. I was also extremely impressed with how the home was marketed. The photos and listing did an excellent job highlighting the best features of the property and presenting it professionally. Now that we’ve successfully closed on the sale, I couldn’t be happier with my decision to work with Brandy. She was responsive, professional, and a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. I’m very grateful for the original recommendation, and I would highly recommend Brandy myself to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.”
“I found Traci while searching for a buyer’s realtor. I currently live in Texas and was planning to fly to Florida to house hunt. Traci was instrumental in helping narrow down which city and neighborhood to concentrate on, knowing we were looking for a waterfront property. She showed us a combination of 21 houses and condos in 3 days, maximizing our time in Florida. She helped us realize that a house would be a better option than a condo due to exorbitant HOA fees of the listings. With her help, we discovered that we truly needed a 3/2 instead of a 2/2, and she found us the perfect one after we had already returned to Texas. Traci set us up with a mortgage rep., underwriter team, insurance company and everything that we needed for success. We were able to close in Texas via a mobile notary for our Florida retirement dream home and location. We couldn’t have done all this without her, her expertise and willingness to invest many hours of phone conversations and arrangements. Traci was tireless in her pursuit of our goal, in spite of the long distance involved. We cannot thank her enough for all of her hard work and dedication. We rate her A+++ and 10 stars!”
“Maryann did such an amazing job finding my forever home. She was so helpful, knowledgeable and available when I needed questions answered. I would always recommend her for any realtor needs. She made the it so easy to purchase a home. I am very impressed on how much knowledge she has concerning the entire process. Thank you”
“Scott was our advocate from start to finish in the process. Great local knowledge , patient as we navigated a new area , advised but respectful of our preferences , and just a pleasure to work with. Would recommend to anyone looking to buy in the Sarasota area.”
“Rich Noto is fantastic! He’s hardworking, dedicated, and extremely knowledgeable. We’re based in New York, and he has helped us tremendously with getting our new home ready in Orlando, Florida. Having someone we trust looking out for us while we’re out of state has made such a difference. He truly cares about his clients and their best interests. We’re grateful for all his help and highly recommend him!”
“Elva did a fabulous job helping this first time buyer buy a home. She knew the area and knew the whole process. Elva was at all meetings and even when I couldn't come. She was very prompt in answering all my questions. She went above and beyond what was expected. She's the best!”
“He is very professional and a great negotiator. He got me a great deal on my house and was a pleasure to work with, his lender included. Highly recommend to anyone in SWFL.”
