Sarasota Real Estate Market Hot Under $300,000 in July 2019! Even though we are experiencing a normal seasonal, slower market in July, segments of the market are very busy, especially properties in the $200,000 to $300,000 range. We have been involved with multiple offers in that price range.
Overall the Inventory Level in all 3 Counties dropped to 3.0 to 3.4 Months of Inventory. Remember a balanced Market is 6 months of Inventory. Interest Rates on Mortgages have dropped making financing more attractive. However, Buyers are still very sensitive on Purchase Price and will not accept over priced properties.
