Sarasota Homes for Sale Update

Sarasota Waterfront PropertySarasota homes for sale have long been popular with buyers from across the United States. Many of the current buyers have been vacationing and visiting the Sarasota area for decades. With newsy lists like Dr. Beach 10 Best Beaches in America, Siesta Key Beach moved up a notch to the number 2 spot, and once again Sarasota real estate is on everyone’s real estate radar. In fact, US News and World Reports named Sarasota to its Top 10 Most Undervalued Places to Live list.

Out of state buyers often purchase maintenance free condos where they can walk away and lock their door until they return. Lately new companies offering landscaping, home watch and pool services are creating an interest in single family homes.


Inventory of single family homes for sale in Sarasota is up and prices after a large correction are now ranging from low $100,000s to $15 million for some luxurious waterfront estates.

Lido Key Real Estate

Last week on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, a lovely couple from Orlando previewed some Lido Key real estate. It was the most beautiful day, and we scheduled showings from Southpoint Shores to the south end of Longboat Key zeroing in on several homes and condos on Lido Key, Florida.

The Circle (St. Armands) was bustling with vacationers on holiday probably visiting families over the Christmas vacation or taking a break from the northern cold weather. The Colombia was just getting busy as we passed about 11:00 am. Returning from Longboat Key about 2:00 pm, you couldn't find a table.

St. Armands Circle is a shopping mecca with specialty shops, restaurants and cafes. You can find seashells, garden items as well as shoes and jewelry. Dine casual or fancy! St. Armands has it all.
