🏡 AUGUST 2026 MARKET UPDATE — MANATEE & SARASOTA COUNTIES 📊

The latest numbers show that our local market continues to move, but buyers and sellers need to approach the market strategically. Inventory has tightened while homes are still taking around 100 days on average to sell.

🔑 THE BIG PICTURE

Both counties are showing an interesting combination:

📉 Inventory is tightening
📈 Pending activity is increasing
🏠 Homes are still taking around 100 days to sell
💰 Prices remain relatively strong

Florida Realtors’ August statewide report similarly describes the broader market as leveling into a steadier pace, with tightening inventory helping support prices even as sales activity has moderated. Local conditions can vary considerably by County, Property Type and Price Point.

Whether you’re thinking about Buying, Selling, or simply want to know what your home is worth in today’s market, local data matters.
