Straight answers
Florine J Abel Elementary School FAQs
Is the Florine J Abel Elementary zone a good place to live?+
It's a well-connected Sarasota zone with a genuine mix of housing, from small condos to waterfront estates. Families also get a spread of school options nearby, including Sarasota High School, and downtown Tampa is about 64 minutes away when you need it. The variety is the real draw here.
Is it expensive to buy here?+
It depends entirely on what you're after — the median list price is $469,500, but active listings run from $82,000 all the way to $5,500,000. Only 5 of the 62 active listings are priced above $1 million, so most inventory sits well below the luxury tier. There's a real entry point for budget-conscious buyers.
What do homes cost in this zone?+
The median list price is $469,500 and the average is about $379 per square foot, on a median home size of 1,365 square feet. Over the last 12 months, 106 homes sold at a median price of $417,500. That gap between list and sold reflects the smaller, lower-priced units in the mix.
How is the market right now?+
It's steady and active — homes are going under contract in a median of 31 days, and sellers are getting about 96% of their asking price. With 62 active listings and 106 sales in the past year, there's healthy turnover without the frenzy of a runaway market.
What about HOA fees and property taxes?+
The median HOA runs about $720 per month, which reflects the condo and managed-community inventory in the zone, so budget carefully depending on the property type. Median property tax is roughly $2,658 per year, and if you're weighing renting first, the median rent is around $2,631 per month.
