Since 1976, Michael Saunders & Company has been the known and trusted name in luxury real estate in Sarasota, Manatee and Charlotte counties. We proudly present the luxury sales results and applaud our experienced agents for successfully facilitating these transactions in the third quarter of 2019. Michael Saunders & Company also thanks and congratulates the many happy sellers and buyers beginning new chapters in our communities. The third quarter contributed to the year of benchmark sales with the purchase of the famed Longboat Key luxury compound of O'hana and the highest Casey Key sale since 2014. A third $3 million+ sale in Bradenton also raised the bar in Manatee County (only 5 have transpired since 2015). Overall, the year of the buyer has meant more in terms of skyrocketing buyer confidence than in its traditional sense and Florida's Gulf Coast continues to be on the radar of luxury buyers worldwide. According to Trendgraphix data, Michael Saunders & Company had the highest total luxury sales in units with both listings and buyers for Sarasota, Charlotte and Manatee counties – taking up an impressive 23% of the market share for properties $1 million+ and 32% for properties $3 million+.
