34236 housing market
ZIP code · SarasotaThe median sale price in ZIP code 34236 was $1.11M in May 2026, down 15.5% year over year, measured across homes that actually closed that month (Redfin). The three months through May 2026 averaged $1.16M, firming from $1.11M across the three months before that. That puts prices 12.5% below the strongest three-month stretch on record here, which ended in Mar 2024 at $1.33M. Zillow's home value index, which models the entire housing stock rather than only the homes that changed hands, reads $1.02M for Jun 2026, down 4.5% year over year.
Buyers had 361 homes to choose from in May 2026, down 12.6% year over year (Redfin). 218 homes came to market in May 2026, down 11.0% year over year, against 144 closings, up 37.1% year over year. Homes that sold in May 2026 took a median of 91 days to go under contract, 11 days slower than this market's usual May pace.
Sellers were asking a median of $1.86M in Jul 2026, up 33.5% year over year (Realtor.com). Asking prices and closing prices never describe the same homes, so the gap between them reads as seller expectation rather than a discount available to buyers: in May 2026 the list median ran 43.4% above the closing median. Competition is measurable in the closings themselves: 2.0% settled above asking, and the average sale landed at 94% of its final list price. 10% of listings carried a price cut in Jul 2026.
