Check the deeds coming out of Lakewood Ranch, Florida. Falin and Sarah McMellon, of Bradenton, just sold their home at 18702 69th Ave. E. to Lisa Sawyer, of Sarasota, for $2.8 million, according to Your Observer.
The property sits in Pomello Park, featuring six bedrooms, five-and-a-half baths, a pool, and 5,909 square feet of living area. Built in 1999, the house previously sold for just $1 million in 2021. That marks a jump of $1.8 million in just five years.
Across the same week in the master-planned community, multiple multi-million dollar deals closed, including a 4-bedroom home on Portmarnock Place fetching $2.23 million. For anyone watching the Florida housing market, these numbers show how quickly property values climbed in the Sunshine State.

When buyers drop nearly $3 million on a single-family home, it changes what builders and sellers expect down the street. Real estate climbs fast when buyers keep showing up with cash.
