Jon's Current Read

"The Renaissance reads like a downtown condominium, not a single-residential neighborhood: one 2001 tower of 244 residences at 750 N Tamiami Trail, where value tracks the floor, the view, the unit's condition, and above all the association's financial health. With Florida's structural-integrity reserve study (SIRS) and milestone-inspection rules now in force for older multi-story condos, the diligence that matters is the building's reserves, any planned special assessment, and the most recent inspection status. Add the standard downtown checks: flood and wind insurance on a bayfront-adjacent high-rise, and the dues line. The location, walkable to the bayfront, the Van Wezel, and Main Street, is the durable asset; the building's books are what you underwrite."

Jon Brooks, founder, Momentum Realty · Updated June 2026

The 60-Second Overview

The Renaissance is an elegant 16-story condominium of 244 residences at 750 N Tamiami Trail in the Rosemary District of downtown Sarasota, completed in 2001 (rencondo.com association site, 2024; Highrises.com building profile). It sits directly across N Tamiami Trail from the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall and near Sarasota Bay, with easy walking access to Main Street, Palm Avenue, and the bayfront.

This is an owner-occupied high-rise rather than a transient rental building. The Renaissance I Association is governed by an owner-elected board, the property is professionally managed with a full-time on-site staff, and an active social committee and welcome committee organize resident activities (rencondo.com, 2024). Amenities include a pool and jetted spa, a large club room with full kitchen, a fitness center, a media room, conference and business rooms, guest suites, a 24-hour staffed reception, and gated secured parking.

Floor plans range across one to three bedrooms, so the building spans compact pieds-a-terre and larger full-time residences. The value drivers inside one tower are the floor and exposure, the view, and the unit's condition and updates, not a subdivision or a lot.

The honest read for a 2001 high-rise is the association: confirm the monthly dues, the reserve funding, any current or pending special assessment, and the building's status under Florida's structural-integrity reserve study and milestone-inspection laws. The walkable downtown-bayfront location is the durable asset; the building's financials and inspection record are what you underwrite.

Tight supply and strong demand favor sellers here. Homes still take about two months to sell, though, and with asking prices running above recent sales per square foot, a prepared buyer has room on anything overpriced. Reading each home against the real comps, not the headline trend, is where the edge is.

  • Pool and jetted spa plus a fitness center
  • Club room with full kitchen and a media room
  • Conference and business rooms plus guest suites
  • Gated secured parking and active social committee

The Renaissance is a single 2001 condominium tower of 244 residences rather than a multi-neighborhood community, so the lifestyle is urban high-rise living in the Rosemary District of downtown Sarasota. The building is owner-occupied and amenity-rich, with a pool and jetted spa, a club room with full kitchen, a fitness center, a media room, conference and business rooms, guest suites, a 24-hour staffed reception, and gated secured parking, and an active social committee. The setting, directly across from the Van Wezel and steps from the bayfront and Main Street, is the durable asset; confirm the association's dues, reserves, and inspection status before you buy.

The takeaway

What is actually shaping value around the Renaissance: Florida's condo structural-inspection and reserve rules for older high-rises, the Sarasota Bay Park and Van Wezel waterfront redevelopment across the street, and a downtown Sarasota condo pipeline that is reshaping supply.

    Regulation

    Florida updates condo SIRS and reserve law with HB 913

    Governor DeSantis signed HB 913 on June 23, 2025, refining the structural-integrity reserve study rules for condos three habitable stories or taller, including baseline funding plans and flexibility to align a SIRS with a milestone inspection by the end of 2026. Why it matters: For a 2001 high-rise like the Renaissance, the SIRS and inspection status drive reserve funding and the odds of a special assessment, making the association books central to diligence.

    Development

    Sarasota advances Phase 3 of The Bay waterfront park

    The Sarasota City Commission approved funding to advance Phase 3 of The Bay park, the 53-acre waterfront redevelopment around the Van Wezel directly across from the Renaissance, with design work moving ahead in late 2025. Why it matters: A maturing bayfront park steps from the building strengthens the walkable-amenity case that supports downtown condo demand over time. Source

    Thousands of new residences planned for downtown Sarasota

    Reporting in late 2025 described hundreds of downtown Sarasota residences under construction and many more in the city's review pipeline, signaling a multi-year expansion of urban condo and apartment supply. Why it matters: A larger downtown pipeline broadens buyer choice and can pressure pricing on older inventory, raising the value of a well-run building and a protected view. Source

The Strategy

The Renaissance buying strategy.

If we were buying in Renaissance, this is the order of operations we would run, and the one we run for our clients.

1

Pull the association financials first. In a 2001 high-rise the reserves, the budget, and any pending special assessment matter more than the unit's finishes.

2

Confirm the Florida inspection status. Ask for the building's structural-integrity reserve study (SIRS) and milestone-inspection records, now required for older multi-story condos.

3

Read the dues and what they include. Downtown high-rise dues cover staffing, amenities, water, and insurance lines, so verify the exact monthly figure and coverage for the unit.

4

Quote flood and wind insurance early. On a bayfront-adjacent tower, confirm the master policy and any unit-owner HO6 requirement for the specific residence.

5

Underwrite floor, view, and condition, and cross-shop a same-corridor peer such as Broadway Promenade on dues, reserves, and amenities.

Community Details at a Glance

The Renaissance is a single 2001 condominium tower of 244 residences rather than a multi-neighborhood community, so the lifestyle is urban high-rise living in the Rosemary District of downtown Sarasota. The building is owner-occupied and amenity-rich, with a pool and jetted spa, a club room with full kitchen, a fitness center, a media room, conference and business rooms, guest suites, a 24-hour staffed reception, and gated secured parking, and an active social committee. The setting, directly across from the Van Wezel and steps from the bayfront and Main Street, is the durable asset; confirm the association's dues, reserves, and inspection status before you buy.

The factors that actually move value in Renaissance, condition, lot, and the renovation math, read from current listings and recent sales.

15-Second Take
  • Renovation math decides the deal
  • Golf and lake lots resell strongest
  • Roof and HVAC age drive the insurance quote
  • Interior lots are where buyers overpay
Proprietary Data

The renovation premium.

Renovated-listing inventory in Renaissance is too thin right now to compute a reliable renovation premium. We read condition home by home against real comps before you offer.

Lot Value

The lot premium.

On golf, lake, and preserve frontage, the homesite is the part of your money the market gives back at resale. The house can be renovated; the lot cannot, so premium lots hold their value better than interior ones. How much more they command varies by frontage, view, and condition, which is why we read it home by home against real comparable sales rather than a single headline figure.

Jon Brooks, Momentum Realty
Operator Note

Most buyers overpay on interior lots in the back half of the community. A sharp renovation can distract you, but the weaker resale position follows the lot, not the finishes. We read the homesite before the kitchen.

The strongest value pocket is usually a renovated golf or lake home priced just under the next tier up. Buyers chasing the single biggest estate often pay estate prices for what is really a renovation project.

5 Mistakes Buyers Make in Renaissance

15-Second Take
  • Calling the listing agent (who works for the seller)
  • Misjudging the renovation budget
  • Overpaying for an interior lot
  • Ignoring the optional club cost
  • Skipping the roof, HVAC, and systems check

In an all-resale, seven-figure, renovation-driven market, the same five mistakes cost buyers the most. Every one is avoidable with the right preparation before you tour.

Renaissance1

Calling the listing agent

The agent on the sign works for the seller. In a market where condition swings price by hundreds of thousands, negotiating against that agent with no one in your corner is the costliest move of all.

Renaissance2

Misjudging the renovation math

A dated home looks like a deal until you price the roof, HVAC, pool, and full modernization honestly. Underbudget the reno and the bargain becomes the expensive house.

Renaissance3

Overpaying for an interior lot

Golf frontage, lakefront, and preserve lots carry real, durable premiums. Pay an estate price for an interior lot and you are buying the weakest version of the value.

Renaissance4

Ignoring the club decision

The club is optional and separate, so two similar homes can cost very differently to own. Buyers who do not price the membership they will actually use misread their real monthly number.

Renaissance5

Skipping the systems check

A 1990s home means 1990s-era systems unless updated. Roof age, HVAC age, pool equipment, and prior renovations drive both price and insurability, and a thorough inspection matters more here than in a new build.

“

The Renaissance is one 2001 tower, so the deal is won or lost on the association's reserves, the dues, the inspection status, and the unit's floor and view.

Which Lots & Views Hold Value Best

Proprietary Data · Lot Value Map

Where the value actually sits. Each home is shaded by its price per square foot (a value read, not just a price) and ringed by lot type, so you can see at a glance which pockets carry a real, durable premium and where a renovation play makes sense.

Value ($/sqft)
$261 value$401 premium
Lake / waterPreserveInterior

Fill = price per square foot; ring = lot type, inferred from listing descriptions. Sold homes are shown by realized $/sqft (lot type not always recorded). Asking and recent-sold figures from Stellar MLS; for orientation, not an appraisal.

15-Second Take
  • In a tower, the floor and exposure are the lot
  • Higher floors and water-facing views hold value best
  • Confirm the view will not be blocked by future towers
  • Read the unit's updates against the building's comps
  • The location, not the unit, is the durable asset

In a high-rise like the Renaissance, the floor and the exposure are the equivalent of a lot: the part of your money the market protects. Higher floors and water-facing or open views hold value better than low, blocked exposures, and downtown Sarasota has significant new construction planned, so confirm whether a future tower could affect the view. The unit can be renovated; the floor, the view, and the building's location cannot. Read the exposure and the association's books first, then price the unit's condition against the building's comps.

The 15-Second Verdict

Biggest advantageA 2001 amenity-rich, staffed tower steps from the Van Wezel, the bayfront, and Main Street.

Sweet spotA strong floor and view in a building with healthy reserves and clear inspection status.
Avoid ifYou want a single-family home or a short-term rental play rather than an owner-occupied tower.

Condo Dues, Reserves & Inspections

15-Second Take
  • You pay monthly condo dues, not a yard-and-street HOA
  • Confirm the exact dues figure for the specific unit
  • Ask for the reserve study and the SIRS status
  • Check for any current or pending special assessment
  • Verify the master insurance policy and HO6 requirement

The Renaissance is a condominium, so you pay monthly association dues rather than a typical neighborhood HOA. Dues fund building staffing, amenities, and shared services; confirm the exact monthly figure for the specific unit, since it varies by residence size and the current budget.

Association dues at a downtown high-rise typically cover the 24-hour staffed reception, building amenities, common-area maintenance and insurance, water, sewer, and trash, with cable and internet often bundled (downtownsarasota.com and Apartments.com listing summaries; confirm current inclusions per the association budget). Reserves and any special assessment are the lines to verify before you buy.

Selling here is won on condition and view, not the Zestimate. The right number comes from closed comps matched to your renovation level and lot.

Selling in Renaissance

Price to the floor, the view, and the building's financial health, not a one-line tower average.

Selling at the Renaissance means pricing to your specific floor, exposure, and unit condition, and to a building story buyers will diligence: reserves, dues, and inspection status. In a 2001 high-rise, a clean association picture is part of your price.

In Renaissance, condition and view decide your number

Because buyers here are weighing your home against renovated comps and cross-shopping Broadway Promenade, a home priced to the community average instead of its true condition and view either leaves money on the table or sits. A renovated kitchen, newer roof and HVAC, and a golf or lake view all deserve to show up in your price, and a buyer pool reading renovation math needs to be shown why your home is worth it. We build that case with real comps and a pricing strategy for the current market.

When was the Renaissance built?
The Renaissance was completed in 2001. It is a 16-story condominium tower with 244 residences (rencondo.com association site; Highrises.com building profile).
How many units and floors does the Renaissance have?
It is a 16-story building with 244 residences, with floor plans spanning one to three bedrooms across a range of sizes. Confirm the exact size and layout for any specific unit.
Is the Renaissance an owner-occupied building or a vacation rental?
It is an owner-occupied condominium with an owner-elected board, full-time on-site staff, and active social and welcome committees, not a transient nightly-rental building (rencondo.com, 2024).

Downtown high-rise dues typically cover the staffed reception, amenities, common-area maintenance and insurance, water, sewer, and trash, often with cable and internet bundled. Confirm the exact dues and inclusions per the association budget for the specific unit.
What is a SIRS and why does it matter here?
A structural-integrity reserve study (SIRS) is a Florida-required reserve study for condo and co-op buildings three habitable stories or taller, with deadlines that applied to owner-controlled associations existing on or before July 1, 2022. For a 2001 high-rise, the SIRS and any milestone inspection drive reserve funding and the risk of a special assessment, so request them in diligence.
Could there be a special assessment at the Renaissance?
Any older Florida condo can face a special assessment if a reserve study or inspection finds underfunding for major structural items. Always confirm the building's current reserves and any pending assessment before you buy; this is not specific to the Renaissance and must be verified per the association.
Is the Renaissance in a flood zone?
It sits in downtown Sarasota near the bayfront, so flood and wind exposure must be checked at the address. Run the FEMA flood zone and confirm the building's master insurance and any unit-owner HO6 requirement during diligence.

Its walkable downtown-bayfront location supports long-run demand, but as with any older high-rise the outcome depends on the association's reserves, dues, and inspection status, plus insurance. This is not a guarantee of future value; underwrite the building's books.
