Weathering the Storm: What RASM Leaders Want You to Know
Last season served as a powerful reminder of just how devastating hurricanes can be to our region. Among those impacted were three of RASM’s past presidents, each of whom experienced the storm’s destruction firsthand and were forced from their homes. In the aftermath, we asked them to share the lessons they learned - wisdom they hope will help fellow members facing similar circumstances. Despite the unique details of their situations, their advice echoed the same core message: prepare early, stay informed, and never face recovery alone. Their stories, shaped by hardship and resilience, now serve as a guiding light for others. Hurricanes are more than meteorological events, they are deeply personal, often life-changing trials that test both our physical preparedness and our emotional strength.
Special assessments can be levied by local municipalities, Homeowners’ Associations, and Condominium Associations. Each type carries distinct disclosure obligations and payment responsibilities that can impact a transaction.
The Truth About Teams

In every thriving community, there exists a thread that quietly weaves people together, binding neighbors not only by geography but by purpose, compassion, and the courage to serve. That thread is volunteerism - and at its core is a servant heart.
This past week, our association witnessed firsthand the incredible power of that spirit during our annual Realtor® Volunteer Week. From food pantries and local schools to parks, housing projects, and community shelters, our members stepped forward with sleeves rolled up and hearts wide open.
Whether planting gardens, preparing meals, organizing supplies, or simply lending a hand or an ear, each act of service reinforced a powerful truth: When we give of ourselves, we elevate not just the lives of others, but our own sense of connection, purpose, and hope.
You brought warmth where there was need, light where there was challenge, and strength where there was uncertainty. Your time and effort were more than generous; they were transformational.
As Realtors®, we often talk about helping people find “home.” But the heart of volunteerism reminds us that home is more than a place - it’s a feeling of belonging, of safety, and of being seen and cared for. When we serve with intention, we help create that sense of home for the entire community.
“As we build bridges across our region and rise to meet the needs of others, let us always remember: A servant heart is not only the foundation of great leadership, but also the soul of a vibrant, united community.”
Let this week not be the end of our outreach but a renewed call to action. Let’s continue to embody the core values of our profession - integrity, commitment, and service - and extend them beyond transactions and into every corner of our neighborhoods.
As we build bridges across our region and rise to meet the needs of others, let us always remember: A servant heart is not only the foundation of great leadership, but also the soul of a vibrant, united community. •
Last season served as a powerful reminder of just how devastating hurricanes can be to our region. Among those impacted were three of RASM’s past presidents, each of whom experienced the storm’s destruction firsthand and were forced from their homes. In the aftermath, we asked them to share the lessons they learned - wisdom they hope will help fellow members facing similar circumstances. Despite the unique details of their situations, their advice echoed the same core message: prepare early, stay informed, and never face recovery alone. Their stories, shaped by hardship and resilience, now serve as a guiding light for others. Hurricanes are more than meteorological events, they are deeply personal, often life-changing trials that test both our physical preparedness and our emotional strength.
From June 1 to November 30, hurricane season looms over Florida: six months of heightened risk, particularly in August and September. Southwest Florida, with its long coastline, barrier islands, and low-lying terrain, is especially vulnerable to storm surge, high winds, and flooding. As trusted professionals, Realtors® must lead the way in promoting readiness, resilience, and informed action.
Somewhere along the line, “hurricane supplies” turned into an excuse to stock up on fun snacks - but it’s so much more than that. Most of us think we know the basics, but it’s imperative to take preparation seriously and approach
it with intention. When storms approach, supply chains collapse quickly. Prepare two kits: one for sheltering in place, and one as a “Go Bag” for evacuation.
“Having hurricane supplies is one thing. Having them accessible when you’re in a panic is another,” said Brian Tresidder, Operations Manager - Sarasota Region with William Raveis Real Estate, and 2023 RASM President. We learned quickly that if you have to dig through bins or closets during an emergency, you’re already behind.”
Many of us think we know the basics, but now is the perfect time to refresh your memory and get prepared:
3+ days of non-perishable food and water (1 gal/ person/day)
First aid kit, prescriptions
Flashlights, extra batteries
Battery-powered or hand-crank radio
Fully charged power banks
Cash & important documents in a waterproof pouch
Hygiene, sanitation supplies, & manual can opener
Entertainment items (books, games)
Baby and pet supplies
Cooler with ice packs
Change of clothes, hygiene items
Full gas tank, physical maps
Medications, extra cash
Documents in waterproof container
Chargers and battery packs
Snacks and water
Pre-planned evacuation route
Even if you don’t live in a designated evacuation zone, it’s important to be ready to leave quickly if needed. Create a detailed evacuation plan that includes multiple escape routes, pet-friendly shelters or accommodations, and potential lodging with friends, family, or hotels. Be aware of local emergency shelter locations and make sure your vehicle has a full tank of gas. Also, check your storm surge zone by visiting your county’s Emergency Management website or using FEMA flood maps to understand your risk.
Act early - well before a storm forms. Conduct a risk assessment for each property you manage or own and ensure that both structural and non-structural elements are secured. Proactive investments can not only safeguard lives and property but also reduce long-term costs and insurance premiums.
“Hardening your home will save you on insurance costs,” said David Clapp, Managing Broker for RE/MAX Alliance Group, and 2020 RASM President. “Prior to the storm I installed impact windows and doors. I put a new roof on the home. Those changes saved me about $2,000 a year on insurance costs. All those improvements hardened the home for wind damage, but not for storm surge! Now, I am having to do additional hardening to ensure I can withstand a future storm surge. Above all, take storms seriously and prepare for every storm before it arrives. Make sure anything outside is secured, and anything that can be brought inside should be. Once the storm is about to hit it’s too late, many items needed will be sold out!”
Additional home preparations can make a significant difference in the safety and resilience of your property. While wind protection is crucial, homeowners should also consider mitigation steps for flooding and storm surge are often overlooked and can be two of the most costly and destructive elements of hurricanes. Be proactive: review your home’s vulnerabilities and make upgrades year-round rather than waiting for a storm to approach.
Inspect and secure roofs, windows, and doors
Install shutters or pre-cut plywood
Bring in outdoor furniture and décor
Trim trees and remove weak limbs
Assess wind and flood risk
Create an inventory list with photos, serial numbers, and receipts
Have digital copies of important documents like wills, birth certificates, and medical records.
Store all important data in the cloud
Creating a thorough home inventory is one of the simplest and most effective ways to protect your assets and streamline insurance claims after a disaster. Store your inventory in the cloud using apps or platforms like Google Drive, Dropbox, or a dedicated home inventory tool. Backing up your data digitally ensures it’s accessible even if your home computer or paper files are damaged. Don’t wait until after a loss -document now:
“Take video and photos of EVERYTHING. FEMA helped a lot, but they would only count things they could document. Don’t throw things away until you’ve got visual evidence,” said Alex Krumm, Broker Owner of NextHome Excellence and 2021 RASM President.
Even if you do everything “right,” there are times when no amount of preparation can fully protect your home or belongings from storm damage. Extreme weather is unpredictable, and sometimes the severity of a storm exceeds forecasts or surpasses even the most comprehensive plans.
“Looking back, there was nothing I could have done to prevent the flood, but I could have been better about getting everything to higher ground,” added Krumm. “I lost a lot of ‘things’ because I was in denial about what was happening as the water was rising right in front of me. Storms like the ones we get are the real deal. I’ll never underestimate one again.”
Even with Florida’s long history of storms, flood insurance remains one of the most misunderstood and overlooked protections. Many assume they’re safe because they’re not in a designated flood zone - but designation doesn’t equal immunity. In fact, a significant percentage of flood claims come from properties outside high-risk areas. Being informed helps avoid misunderstandings after disaster strikes.
“Flood insurance isn’t something to skim over. Understand exactly what your policy covers and doesn’t. Under the National Flood Insurance Program, you can choose your own contractors, which made a huge difference for us. One inch of flood water is all it takes to destroy everything on the floor - furniture, keepsakes, electronics, you name it. If it’s irreplaceable, get it off the floor. People always say ‘it won’t happen here’ - until it does. We lived in our area for over 20 years and never came close to flooding. But Hurricane Debby changed everything. Many of our neighbors weren’t even in a designated flood zone, but drainage issues turned homes into disaster zones overnight. You cannot afford to assume you’re safe just because the map says so. Pre-storm prep should include moving sentimental or valuable items high into closets or onto shelves. We wish we had done more of that,” added Tresidder.
While flood insurance plays a critical role in recovery after a storm, it’s important to understand what your policy covers and realize that it’s only one piece of the puzzle. Homeowners should also take a closer look at what their standard homeowners insurance policies do and do not cover before the next storm season arrives:
Homeowners Insurance: Check wind-driven rain, storm surge, and flood coverage - review all the coverage stipulations.
Flood Insurance: Not part of standard coveragepurchase separately at least 30 days in advance.
“There is NO SUCH THING as ‘not in a flood zone’. That’s not just a factually inaccurate statement: a flood can happen ANYWHERE,” said Krumm. “Every home in my neighborhood except one flooded and it had nothing to do with being inland. Flood insurance for homes in X zones is inexpensive and would have made a world of difference. I knew that but I learned it the hard way anyway.”
Floods don’t follow zoning maps. Just because your property hasn’t flooded before doesn’t mean it won’t. Time and again, residents are caught off guard, believing their location offers natural protection, until it doesn’t. The financial aftermath can be devastating without adequate coverage, and as many have learned, the cost of flood insurance is minimal compared to the cost of recovery.
“Make sure you have flood insurance- I did have flood insurance, and it covered most, but not all of my renovation costs,” added Clapp. “Several of my neighbors did not have flood insurance and they had to come out of pocket to make repairs, or some sold for lot value. If you are in a high-risk zone, then it’s even more imperative to buy flood insurance even if you don’t have a mortgage. No matter what flood zone you live in, buy flood insurance. If you are not in a high-risk zone, the cost will be very inexpensive. Even though we are in a high-risk zone, the home had been there for 53 years, and it had never been flooded before. The temptation was not to buy flood insurance. Don’t do that, buy flood insurance!”
The end of the storm doesn’t mean the danger has passed. In fact, some of the most serious hazards emerge during cleanup and early recovery. Be cautious and deliberate when returning to your home or property.
Avoid floodwaters, which may be contaminated with sewage, chemicals, or hidden debris. Standing water can also conceal sinkholes or downed power lines.
Inspect for structural damage before entering buildings. Cracks, sagging ceilings, or weakened floors can pose serious risks.
Do not use wet electronics or appliances.
Operate generators safely - always outdoors and away from windows to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning.
Recovery is rarely a solo journey. Support from others can make an overwhelming situation feel manageable, especially when the emotional and physical toll is high.
“When you’re living through the hurricane aftermath, it’s hard to think straight,” said Tresidder. “We were lucky to have an army of friends and family help us sort, document, and salvage what we could. My advice: don’t be afraid to ask for help. It’s overwhelming, and no one should go through it alone. Also, in the chaos of recovery, it’s easy to lose track of what really matters. We had so many people helping us, and while we’re incredibly grateful, some family heirlooms were accidentally thrown out in the shuffle. If you can, assign someone you trust to oversee what’s being saved versus discarded. It’s a step we overlooked, and we regret it.”
In the aftermath of a storm, the insurance process can be overwhelming but how you document and submit your claim can significantly impact your recovery timeline
and reimbursement amount. Begin by photographing and recording all damage in detail before you begin any cleanup. Create a dated inventory of what was lost, including estimated values and receipts when available.
File your claim as soon as possible but take the time to ensure your documentation is thorough. Keep a log of all communications with your insurance company, including names, dates, and summaries of conversations. Do not discard damaged items until they’ve been documented or approved for removal by your adjuster.
If possible, consider hiring an independent or public insurance adjuster to advocate on your behalf. They are licensed professionals who work for you, not the insurance company, and can help interpret policy details, assess damage, and negotiate fair settlements.
Also, be cautious: never sign insurance paperwork or repair contracts on behalf of clients or others without legal authorization. When in doubt, consult a trusted attorney or professional to avoid unintended liabilities. Proper preparation and informed action can help ensure that your financial recovery isn’t delayed or diminished when it matters most.
“Having our own insurance adjuster was a game changer. From the moment we re-entered the property, they were right there helping us document and fight for what we were owed,” added Tresidder.
In the digital age, misinformation spreads fast. As a real estate professional, be a steady and reliable voice. Avoid speculation. Keep your clients informed with facts and resources. As Realtors®, our job is to pass along reliable information without fearmongering. Use only official sources:

By: National Association of REALTORS® Interpretations of the Code of Ethics Agreement Case 1-20: (Originally Case #7-24. Revised May, 1988. Transferred to Article 1 November, 1994. Cross-reference Case #2-13.)
Realtor® A owned a home which he listed through his own brokerage firm. The property listing was filed with the Multiple Listing Service of the Board. Realtor® B called Realtor® A and told him of his interest in purchasing the home for himself. Realtor® A suggested a meeting to discuss the matter. The two agreed upon terms and conditions and the property was sold by Realtor® A to Realtor® B.
A few months later, during hard rains, leakage of the roof occurred with resultant water damage to the interior ceilings and side walls. Realtor® B had a roofing contractor inspect the roof. The roofing contractor advised Realtor® B that the roof was defective and advised that only a new roof would prevent future water damage.
Realtor® B then contacted Realtor® A and requested that he pay for the new roof. Realtor® A refused, stating that Realtor® B had had a full opportunity to look at it and inspect it. Realtor® B had then charged Realtor® A with violation of Articles 1 and 2 of the Code of Ethics by not having disclosed that the roof had defects known to Realtor® A prior to the time the purchase agreement was executed.
At the subsequent hearing, Realtor® B outlined his complaint and told the Hearing Panel that at no time during the inspection of the property, or during the negotiations which followed, did Realtor® A disclose any defect in the roof. Realtor® B acknowledged that he had walked around the property and had looked at the roof. He had commented to Realtor® A that the roof looked reasonably good, and Realtor® A had made no comment. The roofing contractor Realtor® B had employed after the leak occurred told him that there was a basic defect in the way the shingles were laid in the cap of the roof and in the manner in which the metal flashing on the roof had been installed. It was the roofing contractor’s opinion that the home’s former occupant could not have been unaware of the defective roof or the leakage that would occur during hard rains.
Realtor® A told the panel that he was participating only to prove that he was not subject to the Code of Ethics while acting as a principal as compared with his acts as an agent on behalf of others. He pointed out that he owned the property and was a principal, and that Realtor® B had purchased the property for
himself as a principal. The panel concluded that the facts showed clearly that Realtor® A, the seller, did have knowledge that the roof was defective, and had not disclosed it to Realtor® B, the buyer. Even though a Realtor® is the owner of a property, when he undertakes to sell that property he accepts the same obligation to properly represent its condition to members of the public, including Realtor® who are purchasers in their own name, as he would have if he were acting as the agent of a seller.
The panel concluded that Realtor® A was in violation of Articles 1 and 2 of the Code. •

Special assessments can be levied by local municipalities, Homeowners’ Associations (HOAs), and Condominium Associations. Each type carries distinct disclosure obligations and payment responsibilities that can significantly impact a transaction. For Realtors®, having a clear understanding of these differences is essential to properly advise clients and ensure smooth closings. Below, we outline the key considerations for each category of special assessment and how they affect real estate transactions.
For properties within condominiums, the Condominium Rider governs the handling of special assessments and is required in any sale involving a condominium unit.
The Condo Rider mandates that sellers disclose any special assessments they are aware of that have either been formally levied or have appeared on association meeting agendas or minutes within the 12 months preceding the contract’s Effective Date.
If a seller fails to disclose such assessments, they will be liable for full payment at closing under the terms of the Rider.
If a Seller discloses the special assessments properly, either Buyer or Seller can elect to pay the full amount due at closing, dependent upon how the Condo Rider is filled out.
If a special assessment is levied after the Effective Date of the Contract, which assessment was not an item on board meeting minutes or an agenda, the Seller would be required to pay amounts due prior to the Closing Date and the Buyer shall pay any amounts due post-closing.
With HOA Special Assessments, the HOA Disclosure controls special assessments levied by the Association in Part B(2)(b) by stating “If special or other assessments levied by the Association exist of the Effective Date, or any assessment(s) are levied after the Effective Date and prior to the Closing Date and are due and
payable in full prior to Closing Date, then Seller shall pay all such assessment(s) prior to or at Closing; or, if any such assessment(s) may be paid in installments, Seller shall pay all installments which are due before Closing Date, prior to or at Closing, and Buyer OR Seller shall pay installments due after Closing Date.”
The HOA Disclosure primarily focuses on the due date of payment when determining which party shall be responsible for its payment.
Notably, the HOA disclosure does not contain any disclosure language. However, it is prudent for sellers to disclosure any known special assessments.
Special assessments imposed by local municipalities are addressed in Section 9(f) of the FAR/BAR Standard and AS-IS Residential Contracts.
Section 9(f) offers two options for handling municipal special assessments:
i. The seller pays all installments due prior to closing, while the buyer pays installments due after closing, with prorations applied similarly to property taxes.
ii. The seller pays the entire remaining balance of the assessment in full at closing.
The selected option must be clearly indicated in the contract.
It is important to research whether a special assessment is levied in the property’s local municipality.
Section 9(f) applies exclusively to local municipality special assessments and does not govern HOA or Condo related special assessments.
Special assessments can have a significant impact on a transaction, and the responsibilities associated with each type can vary considerably based on the governing documents and contract terms. Realtors must understand the distinctions among municipal, HOA, and condominium assessments to ensure their clients are fully informed and that closings proceed without unexpected financial surprises. •

Imagine knowing someone - a friend, loved one, or colleague - who dreams of owning a home but feels the odds are stacked against them. They’ve saved for a down payment, repaired their credit, and done everything “right,” yet they fear being denied or not treated fairly. Sadly, these concerns are rooted in real systemic barriers, such as discriminatory lending practices and a history of exclusion, that make homeownership feel unattainable.
This is why Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) are critical in real estate - and why the Diversity Challenge matters so much.
DEI isn’t just a concept; it’s action. It addresses historical inequities like redlining and ensures fair, inclusive housing opportunities for all. By embracing DEI, Realtors can reflect the diverse needs of today’s buyers and renters, fostering stronger communities and promoting equity. These efforts go beyond moral responsibility - they make business sense by building trust, attracting talent, and ensuring every client feels valued.
The Diversity Challenge empowers Realtors® to be part of the solution. By prioritizing DEI, we help dismantle barriers, create equitable communities, and drive meaningful change in the industry. Completing the challenge shows a commitment to fairness and inclusivity that strengthens our profession and the communities we serve.
We’ve all seen moments when someone wasn’t treated fairly, and it hurt. But we’ve also witnessed moments of triumph - when someone achieved their dream because they were supported, respected, and given a fair chance.
The Diversity Challenge is an opportunity to ensure more of those moments, where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. Together, we can help make the dream of homeownership a reality for all.

Understanding the complexities and nuances of the real estate market, particularly when it comes to compliance with regulations and policies that govern our industry, is vital for any Broker or Realtor®. One important policy is the National Association of Realtors’® (NAR) Clear Cooperation Policy. Created to promote transparency and cooperation among real estate professionals, this Policy has significant implications for real estate agents. In addition, NAR recently announced a new policy, Multiple Listing Options for Sellers, which provides sellers and their agents with more options when marketing a property.
The NAR Clear Cooperation Policy, enacted in January 2020, mandates that any real property listing that is publicly marketed must be submitted to the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) within one business day of such public marketing. This Policy is designed to enhance cooperation among Realtor® members and ensure that all listings have equal exposure within the market, thereby serving the best interests of clients. “Public marketing” which triggers the one day requirement includes social media posts, yard signs, and other promotional activities beyond the traditional MLS listings.
In March 2025, NAR announced the Multiple Listing Options for Sellers Policy. This Policy provides sellers and their agents with greater flexibility in how they market a property. It introduces new listing types such as Delayed Marketing Exempt Listings and updates procedures for Office Exclusive Listings. These options aim to offer tailored marketing strategies while still maintaining MLS compliance.
With the Delayed Marketing Exempt Listings option, the listing is filed with the MLS and made available for other MLS participants and subscribers to access, but the MLS and other participants and subscribers are restricted from displaying the listing through an Internet Data Exchange (IDX) or syndicating the listing to other entities. When the seller decides to begin publicly marketing the property,
for instance, putting a “For Sale” sign in the front yard, the Broker has one business day to make the listing publicly available on the MLS.
NAR also implemented new policies for Office Exclusive Listings. With this method, the seller instructs their Realtor® to market the property only within the Realtor’s® brokerage for a set period of time. The listing must be filed with the MLS, but is not made available to other MLS participants and subscribers. The one business day rule applies once the property begins to be publicly marketed.
The Multiple Listing Options for Sellers Policy is effective immediately through NAR, but Local MLSs have been tasked with establishing their maximum delayed marketing period and implementing the Policy no later than September 30, 2025. It is also important to note that if a seller chooses the Delayed Marketing Exempt Listing or Office Exclusive Listing method, the Broker must have the seller sign a disclosure agreement evidencing the seller’s consent to waive the benefits of immediate public marketing through IDX.
Finally, sellers cannot opt out of the Clear Cooperation Policy requirements: any listing that is publicly marketed (even after a delay) must be filed with the MLS and provided to other MLS participants within one business day of such public marketing. Failure to comply can result in disciplinary action against Realtors® and Brokers by their local Realtor® associations.
While delayed marketing may be intriguing for some sellers, recent studies show that off-market listings on average sell for less than homes listed on a MLS. It is important for Realtors® to inform their sellers about the implications of the Policy and allow them to make an informed decision regarding their marketing strategy.
We encourage you to stay informed and proactive in your marketing strategies. Compliance not only safeguards your professional reputation but also ensures that clients receive the best possible service in an ever-evolving real estate landscape.
Should you have any questions or need assistance with legal matters related to these policies, contact your trusted real estate attorney. It really matters who you work with. •

The 2025 legislative session may have ended with an unusual extension to finalize the state budget, but even amidst uncertainty in Tallahassee, one thing was clear: when Realtors® speak up, lawmakers listen. This year’s advocacy wins were not accidental. They were the direct result of months of engagement, and I’m especially proud of the RASM members who traveled to the Capitol during Great American REALTOR® Days. Their presence and personal stories helped lay the groundwork for the successes we achieved during the session. These wins benefit your clients, our communities, and the industry.
Our region knows too well the toll flooding can take. During the 2024 hurricane season, neighborhoods in Sarasota, Lakewood Ranch, and parts of Manatee County faced widespread flooding, especially in low-lying and coastal zones. Many of our members worked tirelessly to assist clients dealing with water damage, insurance confusion, and a lack of clarity about flood risk.
SB 948, which requires landlords to disclose flood risk to tenants signing leases longer than a year, addresses some issues that arise due to floods. It also extends the same transparency to buyers of condominiums, cooperatives, and mobile home park lots. This isn’t just about legal compliance. It’s about helping families make informed decisions and avoid future hardship. In a market like ours, where water is both a blessing and a risk, this kind of transparency is essential.
Meanwhile, SB 180 ensures that cities and counties provide clear post-disaster permitting guidance without using “lookback periods” that can stall recovery. We were blessed with County Commissions who are homeowner-friendly, and our lookback periods after the storms were minimal, but other areas of the state were not so lucky. We heard horror stories of 5-year lookback periods which tied property owner’s hands when attempting to rebuild. When the next storm hits, property owners statewide will have better information and fewer bureaucratic roadblocks to rebuild. Realtors® will be better positioned to guide them through the process.
Flood and storm policy wasn’t the only area where we made progress. Thanks to coordinated advocacy from Florida REALTORS® and local associations like ours, we achieved meaningful reforms across several critical fronts:
HB 913 (Condominium Transparency): Buyers will now have clearer access to key association documents and a longer cancellation period. This will help reduce legal disputes and improve trust in our housing market.
SB 606 and SB 322 (Combatting Squatting): These bills empower property owners, especially vacation rental and commercial property owners, to remove unauthorized occupants more quickly. They protect property rights and support public safety.
HB 615 (Modernizing Communication): Landlords and tenants can now choose to use email for official notices. This change brings rental communication into the 21st century while still maintaining accountability and legal clarity.
HB 209 (Protecting State Parks): Florida’s natural beauty is not just a lifestyle benefit. It is an economic asset. This legislation strengthens protections for our state parks, which supports tourism and long-term environmental sustainability.
Not all our priorities made it across the finish line as of this writing. Proposals like easing restrictions on accessory dwelling units and expanding support for mobile home residents will need continued work while the remainder of the session marches on. One key bill, SB 110, remains active during this extended budget session. This legislation could reshape professional licensing for real estate and other industries. We are actively engaging lawmakers to ensure that consumer protections and professional standards remain strong. These legislative wins are a powerful reminder that advocacy is not just a single event. It is a year-round commitment. When our members show up, share their stories, and advocate for common-sense policy, the entire state benefits. I’m proud of the work Florida REALTORS®, RASM, and all our members have done together this year and look forward to continuing our momentum in the months ahead. •

Association of Sarasota and Manatee (RASM) has released its April 2025 real estate market report, offering a comprehensive analysis of key trends across both counties. According to data from Florida REALTORS®, the housing market in Sarasota and Manatee counties may be showing early signs of leveling off, particularly as the rapid pace of inventory growth begins to slow. While inventory levels remain elevated compared to last year, the month-overmonth increases have started to moderate, hinting at a potential stabilization. This shift could signal a more balanced environment ahead, where buyer demand and available supply begin to align more closely.
Median Sale Price Trends: All segments reported a year-over-year decline in median and average sale prices.
Inventory Growth Slowing: While overall inventory remains higher year-over-year, the pace of growth is beginning to moderate - indicating a potential shift toward market stabilization as new listings and pending inventory increases begin to level off.
Closed Sales Trends: Closed sales remained relatively steady across most segments, with only slight year-over-year changes - suggesting consistent buyer activity despite shifting market conditions.
In April 2025, Sarasota County reported 817 singlefamily home sales, a 0.7 percent increase year-overyear. The median sale price declined by 13.0 percent from April 2024 to $470,000 but increased slightly from the previous month. Cash buyers accounted for 46.1 percent of all closed sales.
Inventory levels rose, with a 34.6 percent yearover-year increase to 4,448 active listings, bringing the months supply to 7.0 months. The median time to contract and median time to sale stayed relatively consistent to last month to 43 days and 82 days, respectively.
In April 2025, Manatee County reported 672 singlefamily home sales, a 1.9 percent decrease year-overyear. The median sale price decreased 12.5 percent year-over-year to $464,000. Cash buyers accounted for 29.9 percent of all closed sales.
Manatee County ended April 2025 with 3251 active listings, representing a 5.2-month supply of inventory. The median time to contract increased slightly from last month to 50 days, while the median time to sale decreased slightly to 92 days.
“The single-family home markets in both Sarasota and Manatee counties are showing encouraging signs of stabilization,” said Debi Reynolds, Managing Broker of SaraBay Real Estate and 2025 RASM President. “While we’re seeing a natural correction from the record highs of recent years, the steady pace of sales and the more moderate growth in inventory indicate a return to healthier market conditions.”
In April 2025, Sarasota County reported 375 townhome and condo sales, a 13.0 percent decrease year-over-year. The median sale price fell 14.9 percent year-over-year to $339,500, with 66.9 percent of sales being cash purchases.
Inventory decreased for the first time since September 2024 to 2,654 active listings and a 9.6-month supply, signaling that the Sarasota Condo and Townhome market is stabilizing. The median time to contract the median time increased from March 2025 to 61 days and 104 days, respectively.
In April 2025, Manatee County reported 273 townhome and condo sales, a 1.1 percent decrease year-over-year. The median sale price fell 14.8 percent to $300,220 with 50.5 percent of sales being cash purchases.
Inventory held relatively constant from March 2025 with 1,817 active listings and an 8.2-month supply. The median time to contract stayed relatively consistent at 63 days, while the median time to sale decreased to 98 days.
“The condo and townhome market is showing more pronounced price softening, primarily due to a steady increase in inventory,” Reynolds explained. “This means buyers have more negotiating power, but it also challenges sellers to be strategic ensuring their properties are priced competitively and well-presented.”
Overall, the April 2025 data reflect a market in transition - characterized by stabilizing inventory, softening prices, and steady sales activity. As buyers and sellers navigate these evolving conditions, working with a trusted Realtor® is more important than ever. Realtors® offer expert guidance, local market knowledge, and negotiation skills that are essential for making informed decisions and achieving successful outcomes in today’s complex real estate landscape.w.MyRASM.com/statistics. •

When I first started in real estate, several
mentors and industry leaders told me I had the makings of a great solo agent and encouraged me to eventually start my own team. I became obsessed with this vision, convinced that building a team was the ultimate marker of success. I spent so much energy planning for that future team that I overlooked critical steps I needed to take in my present business.
What I’ve learned, often the hard way, is that a team isn’t something you establish just because it sounds impressive or because it’s a common progression. A team should be created when your business demands leverage - when your growth exceeds the hours available to maintain the level of service your clients deserve.
In the early stages, my eagerness led me to premature hires, misallocated resources, and costly setbacks. Each failed start and unnecessary expense was a clear sign: I was building for a future need, not responding to a current one. Fast forward through these valuable lessons - I realized that success in real estate is about mastering your current business first. It’s about consistently producing results, refining your systems, and knowing precisely when and where leverage will truly add value.
This revelation may sound like common sense now, but the appeal of having a team often blinds agents to this simple truth. Too many of us rush into building a team to satisfy an image or fulfill an expectation rather than addressing a genuine necessity. Remember, a team isn’t an accessory; it’s a carefully crafted structure designed to amplify your productivity and enhance client experiences when you’re genuinely at capacity. Today, I’m grateful to be frequently approached by talented individuals eager to join my team. It’s
incredibly flattering - and I genuinely love sharing this rewarding career path with others - but growth must be intentional. I’ve learned the discipline of adding team members only when it’s clear that their roles will directly benefit my clients, my existing team members, and my overall business sustainability.
If you’re contemplating building your own team, ask yourself:
Am I consistently operating beyond capacity?
Will this hire create real leverage or just extra overhead?
Can my business systems support another person effectively right now?
Trust me when I say there is no shortcut to meaningful growth. The best teams emerge from genuine need, not ambition alone. Focus on excelling where you are. When the time is right, and the need is evident, your team will naturally - and successfully - take shape. Stay intentional, stay patient, and success will follow.

Ive been a Realtor® since 1992, and recently, I’ve been exploring ways to expand into the global real estate marketplace - seeking both investment opportunities and the personal enrichment that comes from discovering the world beyond our borders.
That brings me to a striking fact: nearly half a million U.S. citizens are now living overseas in retirement. As this number continues to grow, it’s essential that today’s Realtor® understands the motivations behind this trend. Here are ten of the most compelling reasons:
1 | Lower Cost of Living: Many countries offer a significantly more affordable lifestyle, allowing retirement dollars to stretch further.
2 | Accessible Healthcare: Nations like Portugal and Costa Rica provide high-quality healthcare at a fraction of U.S. prices.
3 | Favorable Climate: Warm, sunny destinations appeal to those seeking year-round comfort. Even here on the Suncoast, we still get a taste of winter – some places don’t!
4 | Slower Pace of Life: A more relaxed, community-focused lifestyle is a major draw for many retirees.
5 | Adventure and Travel: Retiring abroad opens the door to cultural discovery and regional travel – an adventure many only dream of.
6 | Retiree Incentives: Several countries offer attractive residency options, tax advantages, and retirement visa programs.
7 | International Communities: Established expat networks help ease the transition and offer builtin support from others who’ve made the move.
8 | Real Estate Opportunities: Surprisingly affordable properties - yes, even beachfront under $100K in Ecuador - can be found in many locations.
9 | Political or Social Preferences: Some retirees seek environments that align more closely with their personal or cultural values.
10 | Family Ties or Heritage: Dual citizenship, ancestral roots, or family abroad can make international retirement feel like coming home.
Understanding these motivations helps Realtors® serve clients more effectively – and may open new global doors in their own business. As a member of RASM’s Global Business Council, you’ll engage with like-minded professionals and expand your global vision. For just $25, you can join us and broaden your horizons!

In a world of events, happy hours, and classes, it’s easy to mistake being present for being productive. For young professionals in the real estate world, especially those just finding their footing, networking isn’t just about collecting contacts - it’s about cultivating relationships that lead to referrals, mentorships, and long-term success.
As someone in legal business development and a member of the Young Professionals Network committee, I’ve seen how powerful intentional networking can be. It’s not about handing out as many business cards as you can - it’s about showing up with purpose, making real connections, and following up in a meaningful way. Whether you are new or used to walking into a room full of professionals, here are some tips to help you succeed!
1 | Shift Your Mindset: From Transactional to Relational. Networking isn’t a one-and-done exchange. The most successful professionals I know focus on adding value. Whether it’s connecting someone to a trusted vendor, sharing relevant legal insights, or even spotlighting a colleague’s listing, small actions build trust - and trust builds business.
2 | Pick Events That Align with Your Goals. You don’t need to attend everything. Choose events where your ideal referral partners or mentors will be. Want more luxury listings? Attend an event focused on high-end development. Interested in building relationships with attorneys, lenders, or inspectors? Show up where they show up. Be strategic and attend with a goal in mind.
3 | Follow-Up is Where the Magic Happens! We’ve all left events with business cards that never make it beyond our desk drawers. Make it a rule to follow up with any meaningful contact within 48 hours - whether it’s a social media connection, a coffee invite, or a quick note saying, “It was great to meet you. I’d love to stay in touch.”
4 | Use Your Social Media Platform. Don’t underestimate the influence of your online presence. Whether you have 100 followers or 10,000, social media can be a powerful tool to build credibility, stay top-of-mind, and strengthen the connections you make in person. After a networking event, consider posting a quick recap on Instagram or Facebook. Tag a few people you met or share a takeaway from the speaker - it shows you’re engaged and helps others remember you, too. Even better? Shout someone out or share their content. Supporting others publicly is one of the most underutilized ways to grow your network organically.
5 | Build a Small Circle That Builds You Up. Focus on forming relationships with a handful of people who genuinely support your growth. Look for people who follow through, cheer you on, and aren’t afraid to share advice or constructive feedback. And remember - it’s not just about finding your people, it’s about being one of those people too. Show up consistently, check in even when there’s no deal on the line, and look for ways to help others win. These kinds of relationships create a ripple effect!
Networking with intention means understanding that real estate is a people business first and a property business second. So, the next time you walk into a room full of professionals, don’t just think about what you can get - think about what you can give. That mindset shift alone could be what takes your career to the next level! •
