January Sales Jump 18 % from Last Month.
Thursday, February 26th, 2009Considering our country is in the middle of an economic crisis, pending sales in the Sarasota Real Estate market rose to 683 in Jan ‘09 topping the 500 level for the 13 th month in a row. Pending sales last month were much higher than the 516 reported in January ‘08, which indicates that the local market is bucking the national downward trend to some extent.
What we’re seeing is opportunities are openning up for savy property buyers. Because the Sarasota market is full of high quality properties, and coupled with significantly lower prices and the guidance of a well-trained professional Realtor , buyers are confident they will find the ideal property in today’s market.
Below are some market analysis I took from the Sarasota Association of Realtors.
