Below are May 2010 statistics for the Sarasota FL real estate market. These stats are pulled from the Mid Florida MLS system and are for the entire Sarasota county. This includes sales are far south as North Port. Unfortunately, we do not have an easy way to exclude those sales. Sales in that area drag the average and median prices down as well as the total sales numbers up. If you want specific market stats you can email me at marc(at)luxurysarasotarealestate.com. Please only ask me for help if you are not represented by a Realtor and plan on retaining my services. No one likes to work for free

Below is a chart from Trulia. It shows the Median Sales Price for the last year in Sarasota. Honestly, I am a little cynical with these types of charts. I have not checked it for accuracy. However, it does appear to look fairly accurate.
The chart below shows the median home and condo price. Again, I don’t know how accurate it is. This must be for the city of Sarasota and not the county. The chart shows a median price of somewhere around $285,000. However, if you look above you will see it around $143,000 for the county.
