I sold one of my own listings today In University Place. The buyer found me through my website at www.WeSellsarasota.com. I learned through our initial conversation that he really wanted to take advantage of the buying opportunity in Sarasota right now. Sarasota mortgage interest rates are fantastic, and prices are low. The buyer also realized that based on the Sarasota housing statistics, pending homes are increasing, and inventory is half the numbers of last year. (we still have a lot though, but the trends are clear) …so it is a matter of time before inventory levels out. we viewed many homes in the 300-400k price range from Lakewood Ranch, Mote Ranch, to down in Venice. We even looked at Sarasota homes with acreage as well. Throughout it all, we toured some very nicely appointed homes. We were primarily looking for 3-4 bedroom, 2-3 bath, pool, and a nice lot with either a lake view or a preserve view.
When all was said and done, the listing that I had in the gated community of University Place was the buyer’s favorite. He made a great choice, and I sold another home in University Place! If you would like some assistance either buying or selling a home in Sarasota, please give me a call. I am here to help, and best of all, my services are free for buyers!
