Who Sells the Most Sarasota Luxury Homes?
Posted by Marc Rasmussen on Monday, March 28th, 2011 at 10:44am.Below is a pie chart showing the market share of brokers for properties over $750,000. People's definition of luxury will vary. Some believe it is over $1,000,000 while others think it is less. It is hard to say that a $900,000 home does not classify as a luxury home.
Sarasota Luxury Home Sales

| Broker | Total Sales in $,000's | Market Share | ||
| Michael Saunders and Company | $452,164 | 40.3% | ||
| Coldwell Banker and Company | $170,141 | 15.2% | ||
| Signature Sotheby's | $105,795 | 9.4% | ||
| RE/MAX Alliance Group | $78,868 | 7.0% | ||
| Prudential Palms | $61,581 | 5.5% |
The numbers above are for Sarasota county properties above $750,000. These include both homes and condos. The #6 broker had a market share of .6% so I only included the top 5 in the pie chart. Obviously, the larger firms are going to have the largest market shares. It is virtually impossible for a 50 agent office to outsell a 500 agent office. Regardless, it is pretty impressive to see Michael Saunders and Company have a whopping 40.3% of the market share of Sarasota luxury homes above $750,000.
Just for kicks I pulled the sales figures for homes above $1,000,000 and $1,500,000. The market shares for Michael Saunders and Company went up to just over 43% for properties above $1,000,000 and about 45% for properties above $1,500,000. If you make the jump up to $2,500,000 MS&C has 56% of the market.
