Top Deals 2020

Although apartment transactions once again outpaced other commercial real estate sectors in the Sarasota and Manatee counties’ submarket in 2020, a trio of other asset types — lodging, senior housing and office and industrial “flex” space — prevented multifamily housing deals from dominating the Top Five as they have since 2016.

Last year, by contrast, four of the five largest transactions involved traditional multifamily rental properties. This year, just two such trades cracked the Top Five.
