The quarter in review
The North Port-Sarasota-Bradenton metro closed 4,850 single-family sales in the second quarter, up 8.6% year-over-year, at a $480,000 median (+4.3%). Total dollar volume climbed 21.1% to $3.5 billion. Sellers captured 94.8% of their original list price, up 1.2 points from a year ago, and new pending sales rose 12.9%, a strong signal heading into the back half of the year.
The luxury market drove an outsized share of the growth. Sales of $10 million or more jumped from 1 to 6 transactions, a 500% increase. Sales between $3 million and $4.99 million rose 69.4%, and sales between $2 million and $2.99 million rose 65.4%. Active inventory fell 22.0% metro-wide to 5,576 homes, nearly 1,600 fewer than a year ago, pushing months of supply down to 4.1 from 5.7.
If you’re buying
The metro lost nearly 1,600 single-family homes from its active inventory over the past year, and demand absorbed nearly all of it. Luxury buyers face genuine competition this quarter, the $2 million-plus tiers posted some of the sharpest growth in the entire report. Come prepared with strong financing and realistic expectations.
If you’re selling
The metro-wide data confirms a seller's market, and a strong one, months of supply at 4.1, list price received climbing, and days to contract down nearly 10%. If your home is priced above $2 million, current demand is exceptional; several luxury bands more than doubled in sales this quarter.
