The Florida condo market isn’t dead—it just underwent a massive shift. 

The internet loves to talk about the “collapse” of Florida condos due to new 2026 structural regulations and rising HOA fees. But while the headlines scream doom, the actual data shows that savvy buyers are flooding back into the market. In our local Sarasota-Manatee corridor, condo and townhome sales rose by over 14%, and pending sales jumped 20% year-over-year.
Here is the real story: Sales are up, but prices are down. Buyers are refusing to pay 2021 prices for buildings with weak reserves or high structural risk. They are calculating the total cost of ownership and using that data to negotiate aggressive discounts. A villa in Lakewood Ranch, a townhome in Palmer Ranch, and an older building in Bradenton are all behaving completely differently right now.
Don’t buy into a condo association blind. You need to know the health of the building’s reserves before you sign. Click the link in my bio to grab my 2026 Condo Buyer’s Checklist, or shoot me a text to run the numbers on a specific community!
