The Sarasota Real Estate industry is very often scrutinized for usually displaying a Pollyanna attitude about the real estate market. Most home owners believe that the Sarasota market strategy ‘to buy or sell now’ is nothing more than a tactic to scare everyone in to moving to create a greater commission for them self. There is only one way to find out if this is true or not, so let’s take a quick look at some numbers to see if what we are hearing is actually truthful to what they are saying.

The ‘cost of any newly purchased or bought home is figured by two major components: the actual price of the home and the current mortgage rate. In accordance with the most recent Case-Shiller Home Pricing Index, real estate values have risen a total of over 10% in the last year alone. If we look at Freddie Macs Weekly Primary Mortgage Market Survey®, the highly sought after 30 year mortgage rate has also substantially increased from 3.67% to 3.91% during that exact same one year period.

The table displayed below shows the difference between the cost of the same exact Orlando real estate over the previous twelve months: We can now see that the advice given by Team Works Real Estate of Keller Williams On The Water to buy one year ago made complete financial sense for anyone looking to move.

What Can We Expect From Sarasota Real Estate In The Future?

Most real estate experts are not only stating that prices will continue to rise day after day, but are also substantially upgrading their current forecast as the housing market is displaying very strong signs that it is fully recovering. In regards to the infamous interest rates, the popular 30 year mortgage rate has rapidly increased by over a half point since this year began in January and most real estate agents, brokers, writers and experts are under the assumption that the increases on all things Sarasota Real Estate will continue. Even those who are trying to be the ultimate voice of reasoning on this newly discovered issue are even projecting higher rates. To give you an idea from a mortgage analyst point of view, Polyana da Costa, senior mortgage analyst at Bankrate.com said: “Rates are unlikely to keep going up so quickly and should remain below 5 percent.”
