Are you considering purchashing a vacation condo a relocating to downtown Sarasota? A downtown condo market update might be helpful to you.

The downtown area is vibrant and full of energy. Take a walk and you will see visitors and residents enjoying themselves either shopping in one of the quaint stores, eating at an out door cafe, enjoying a coffee at Starbucks, picking up some groceries at Whole Foods or just meandering along Palm Avenue looking at the art galleries.

There are plenty of great places to live in downtown. There are more condo options than neighborhoods with single family homes. Some of the best downtown Sarasota condos include One Hundred Central, 1350 Main, Plaza at Five Points, Burns Court Villas, Marina Tower, Orange Blossom Tower and Ritz Carlton Tower Residences. Downtown condos come in a variety of shapes, sizes, colors and prices. You are sure to find something that fits your taste and budget.

Marc, how are condo sales in Sarasota? What percentage of the transactions are distressed properties? Btw, glad to have found your site and blog, I have seen you around the RE.net (I'm a moderator on REW and a couple of other sites).

HI Alex,

Thanks for the comment. The foreclosures and short sales accounted for about 26% of the sales of downtown condos so far this year. Not too bad. How is your market doing?
