SARASOTA COUNTY REAL ESTATE MARKET STATS...MAYBE?

SARASOTA COUNTY REAL ESTATE MARKET STATISTICS PROVIDED BY TRULIA

Use the computer generated information below as general guidelines but take it with a grain of salt, tequila and a slice of lime. Yes this is a crazy market and influenced heavily by mortgage lenders holding or flooding the Sarasota real estate market with REO bank owned forclosures. When and if they are approving short sales in another huge variable. the past few months have been slow. oh and that's a huge BFO (blinding flash of the obvious) ... hmmm...When the wealthiest 50% of Sarasota county residence leaves the state for the summer, sales of everything tend to slow down including; pizzas, goldfish, oil changes, poodle trimming and vodka always slow to a crawl... Every banker, CPA, insurance agent, doctor, and business owners in general, vacation this time of the years because their clients are gone on vacation too! Slow summer sales just mean that everyone went on vacation away from Florida as they always do...That has been happening for the 24 years I have lived in Sarasota. In general cheap bank owned condos and homes are selling in a few days to out of state investors, many sight unseen, and this is hugely pushing all of the statistics down while all of our locals are on a cruise somewhere in Alaska....
