Sarasota-Manatee County Real Estate Market Update: July 2025

Welcome to your July 2025 Sarasota real estate market update, brought to you by House Match. In this month’s update, we’re diving into the latest data from June 2025 for single-family homes in the North Port–Sarasota–Bradenton area. Whether you're planning to buy, sell, or just stay informed, here’s what you need to know about the current state of the market.

Home Prices See a Shift

The median price for single-family homes in the North Port–Sarasota–Bradenton area dropped to $448,500 in June. This represents a noticeable dip from both last month and the same time last year. While it may feel like a cooling market, Sarasota remains active and full of opportunity. The shift signals a more favorable environment for buyers, but savvy sellers can still succeed—especially with proper pricing.

Inventory and Market Pace

There were 7,151 single-family homes on the market in June, slightly lower than May but still offering buyers plenty of choices. Homes are now taking nearly two months to go under contract, a clear indicator that the market is moving at a slower pace than earlier this year. Buyers have more breathing room, while sellers should prepare for longer timeframes.
