Monthly Market Detail- May 2025 Single-Family Homes Sarasota County

Closed Sales by Sale Price

The number of sales transactions which closed during the month
Economists ' note: Closed Sales are one of the simplest— yet most important— indicators for the residential real estate market. When comparing Closed Sales across markets of different sizes, we recommend comparing the percent changes in sales rather than the number of sales. Closed Sales( and many other market metrics) are affected by seasonal cycles, so actual trends are more accurately represented by year-over-year changes( i. e. comparing a month ' s sales to the amount of sales in the same month in the previous year), rather than changes from one month to the next.

Economists ' note: Like Time to Sale, Time to Contract is a measure of the length of the home selling process calculated for sales which closed during the month. The difference is that Time to Contract measures the number of days between the initial listing of a property and the signing of the contract which eventually led to the closing of the sale. When the gap between Median Time to Contract and Median Time to Sale grows, it is usually a sign of longer closing times and / or declining numbers of cash sales.
