📊🏡 WEEKLY REAL ESTATE MARKET UPDATE | Sarasota & Manatee Counties 🌴☀️
August 31, 2026

We’re wrapping up August with some encouraging activity in the Sarasota and Manatee County real estate market. Pending sales, closed sales, and the average sold price all increased this week, while the number of active listings continued to decline. 👀

Here’s what happened over the last 7 days:

📉 Active Listings: 7,837 | Down 0.6%
💰 Average Sold Price: $592,882 | Up 6.7%
📝 Pending Listings: 442 | Up 1.7%
🔑 Sold Listings: 446 | Up 8.8%

🏠 Months of Inventory by Price Range

🔹 Single Family Homes Under $500K
📦 3.7 Months
💲 Average Price: $364,773

🔹 Single Family Homes $500K–$1M
📦 3.7 Months
💲 Average Price: $689,262

🔹 Condos, Villas & Townhomes Under $500K
📦 5.4 Months
💲 Average Price: $275,917

🔹 Condos, Villas & Townhomes $500K–$1M
📦 8.3 Months
💲 Average Price: $662,551

📍 What stands out this week?

🏡 Single-family inventory remains relatively tight, with just 3.7 months of inventory in both price ranges.

🏢 The condo market continues to tell a different story. With 8.3 months of inventory between $500K and $1M, buyers in that segment may have significantly more negotiating leverage.

📈 At the same time, closed sales jumped 8.8% and pending sales increased, even as the number of homes available for sale declined slightly.

The takeaway? There isn't just one Sarasota/Manatee real estate market. Conditions can be dramatically different depending on the type of property and price range. That's why knowing the numbers for the specific market you're buying or selling in matters.

Thinking about buying, selling, or wondering what your home could sell for in today's market? Give me a call! 📲

🏡 SOLD IT! Another Happy Buyer Is Coming Home to Florida! 🌴☀️

This is now the THIRD transaction I’ve had with this buyer over the last four years. After relocating twice and moving all the way to New Hampshire, she’s headed back to Florida and has finally found her FOREVER HOME! ❤️🏡

📍 11949 Violet Jasper Way | Parrish, FL
🏠 Brand-New Construction
🛏️ 3 Bedrooms
🛁 3 Bathrooms
💰 $432,150
💎 Tons of Amenities
🏊🏼 Resort Style Pool
🏸 Pickleball
🍻 Restaurant/Bar
🏃🏼‍♂️‍➡️ 55+ Active Adult Community

And this one was an absolute SLAM DUNK for my buyer in Prosperity Lakes! 🏀

We were able to take advantage of some fantastic builder incentives:

💵 Builder paid ALL of the buyer’s closing costs!
📉 Interest rate bought down to an incredible 5.1%!
🔑 Brand-new home with builder warranties
🎉 A great deal on a home she plans to enjoy for many years to come!

Thinking about buying NEW CONSTRUCTION? Don’t walk into a builder’s sales office alone!

I specialize in new construction and I’m very familiar with the builders and communities throughout Parrish, Florida. I can help you compare the different builders, communities, floor plans and incentives, and most importantly, negotiate on your behalf.

Builders may offer incentives such as:

✅ Interest-rate buy-downs
✅ Paid closing costs
✅ Design and upgrade incentives
✅ Special financing programs
✅ Negotiated pricing and other concessions

Remember, the sales representative at the model home works for the builder. I work for YOU. And in most new-construction transactions, the builder pays my commission.

If you’ve been considering a brand-new home in Parrish or the surrounding areas, give me a call or text. There are some great opportunities out there, and I’d love to help you find the right one and negotiate the best deal possible. 🏡🔑
