Sarasota Real Estate Market Update - Inventories Are Up!
Wednesday, November 11th, 2009 at 5:50am. 394 Views, 0 Comments.
I rotated the chart to make it easier to read. These are Sarasota county inventory, sales and pending sales figures for the last 3 years. As you can see the inventory of homes have been dropping nicely for the last few years. The dark green lines at the bottom represent closed sales. Notice the increase in home sales in 2009. The red line on the chart represents pending sales.
The number of homes for sale actually increased last month. However, it was only a modest .3% from September 2009. The sales increased 2% and pending sales increased nearly 18%. Compared to a year ago inventories are down 29%. I think the increase in inventory from September to October is probably due to those people who want to have their home listed during the busy winter…
