Property taxes
✓ Certified tax roll · county-average rateProperty taxes in Florida are reassessed after a sale, so a buyer’s first full-year bill can be higher than the seller’s. Budget from this estimate, not the current bill, before you make an offer.
Most of this comes from Florida’s Save Our Homes assessment cap resetting when the home sells — the current owner’s protected assessment does not transfer to a new buyer.

Price & listing history
Building permits
Comparable recent sales
6 closed sales within about 10 miles in Sarasota County in the last 18 months — same property type, living area within 30% of this home. Sold prices are MLS closed-sale records, deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
Median of these 6 sales: $320,750 ($226/sq ft). Directional only — a small or wide-radius sample. Shown for general reference only — not an appraisal or a statement of this home’s value.
The Messtimate
This is a deliberately dumb estimate — living area times a range of recent neighborhood $/sq ft, and nothing else. It is not an appraisal, not market value, and not a valuation of this home. Even a tight range from comparable sales can’t price a specific home — here’s why.
Directional estimate — 6 comparable closed sales within about 10 miles in Sarasota County, closed within the last 18 months, same property type, living area within 30% of this home.
Actual list price: $849,000 — compare it against the range above. The Messtimate is a blind sqft estimate; the list price reflects this specific home.
A 259% spread on the same house — and that gap is exactly what an automated guess can't see:
- Condition & updates — a renovated kitchen or new roof vs. dated finishes can swing value six figures; sq ft can't see it.
- The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one: same sq ft, very different price.
- Outliers skew it — the band above comes from 6 nearby sales; one flip or distressed sale moves the whole $/sq ft.
- Carrying costs & concessions — this home carries HOA dues of $570/mo; with insurance and any seller-paid buydown, that changes what a buyer actually pays, and a sq ft estimate ignores all of it.
And here's what the live market is doing — which the number above ignores entirely:
- This home: 186 days on market vs. a 34-day community median
- 2972 active listings competing, 971 under contract
- 12 closed here in the last 12 months
For reference, this home is listed at $849,000 ($403/sq ft). The list price is the seller's asking price and is not derived from this range.

Buyer research checklist
Items worth confirming for 8101 Gabanna Drive, chosen from what the record shows. This is general guidance, not advice about this specific property.
- Built in 2016: confirm the roof and HVAC install dates and whether any builder or manufacturer warranty transfers.
- HOA dues are listed at $570/mo: request the current budget, reserves, and rules before relying on that figure or on any restriction.
- Look up the parcel on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center and confirm with your insurer whether flood insurance is required.
- Get a homeowners insurance quote for this specific address in Sarasota County; a wind-mitigation inspection and, on older homes, a four-point inspection can change the premium.
- Listed living area is 2,106 sq ft: verify it against the property appraiser's record and measure before relying on it.
- Order a survey to confirm lot boundaries and easements.
- Review permit history with the county.
- Property taxes: the estimate on this page (about $10,775/yr) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $3,950 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+58%). Exemptions and portability change the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser.
- School zoning shown here comes from district data and changes; confirm the assigned schools directly with the district before relying on them.

How big is 8101 Gabanna Drive and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 8101 Gabanna Drive was built in 2016 and has 2,106 sq ft of living area, 2 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 8101 Gabanna Drive in?
8101 Gabanna Drive is in Esplanade By Siesta Key in Sarasota, Sarasota County. The comparable-sales section on this page shows recent closed sales nearby from the same MLS data.
Does 8101 Gabanna Drive have an HOA, and how much are the dues?
The listing reports HOA dues of $570 per month. Dues, what they cover, and the community's rules should be confirmed from the association's current documents before relying on them.
Why might property taxes on 8101 Gabanna Drive differ from the current owner's?
The estimate on this page (about $10,775 per year) assumes reassessment at the list price less the homestead exemption. Estimated buyer taxes are about $3,950 more per year than the current owner’s estimated bill (+58%). Florida reassesses a home after it sells; for a homesteaded seller the Save Our Homes cap on their assessment does not transfer, and a buyer's own exemptions and portability are applied separately, so the two bills usually differ. Any tax figure shown here is an estimate, not the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser and tax collector.
Is 8101 Gabanna Drive in a flood zone?
A flood designation has not been verified for this address. Look up the parcel on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center (msc.fema.gov) and confirm with your insurer.
