THE REAL ESTATE MARKET
Is Now a Good Time to Sell?
As you know, many things are different this year. But one difference you may not be aware of is how remarkably strong interest in real estate has intensified over the last two months. Nationally, existing-home sales rebounded at a record pace in June, showing strong signs of a market turnaround after three straight months of sales declines caused by the ongoing pandemic. The month of June recorded a jump of 20.7% in existing home sales from May. The national median house price also increased in June, marking 100 straight months of year-over-year gains.

THE MOMENT IS NOW
The pace of home sales has now recovered with inventory moving faster than this time last year -- but supply remains the critical missing piece in the recovery. With the number of listings under contract up significantly and property showings surging over this time last year, buyer demand is now unparalleled and will continue in the coming months. The time is right to list your home with the team renowned for achieving outstanding results in Sarasota Luxury Real Estate.

Downtown Condos
DOWNTOWN CONDOS
New ultra-luxury condominiums are filling the Downtown Sarasota skyline. The selection is varied starting at $337,397 for a 639 sq. ft. unit at Citrus Residences on North Orange Avenue, and topping out at $9,995,000 for a 5,655 sq. ft. penthouse at Epoch on Gulfstream Avenue. While the selection is varied, the number of premium units with water views is limited -- and they're selling quickly.

If your lifestyle dreams include owning one of these downtown condos, I can represent your best interests, and negotiate the best price and available upgrades/discounts on your behalf. You pay nothing extra by working with me, and I will be on your side every step of the way.
