Sarasota’s office market has also earned national recognition, ranking No. 2 among the top 50 United States markets in LoopNet’s “Best Cities for Office Investing in 2026.” According to LoopNet, Sarasota offers strong underlying demand despite a tighter asset pool, while job growth is outpacing all but two of the other 49 markets studied, supporting long-term demand for office space.
