The real monthly cost of owning in Venice
Take the median $325,000 home with 20% down at today’s 7.28% 30-year rate: principal and interest run about $1,779/month. Sarasota County’s typical total millage is 13.48 mills, so after the $50,000 homestead exemption the property tax is roughly $3,706/year ($309/month) for a new owner — the seller’s capped bill on the listing will be lower and is not your number. Citizens Property Insurance’s average premium in Sarasota County is about $2,126/year; private-market quotes vary with roof age and wind mitigation. 42% of current Venice listings carry an HOA, with a median of $278/month where one applies. All in, budget on the order of $2,265/month to own the median Venice home.

Schools, taxes, and insurance: where to verify
School assignments change; check the Sarasota County school grades page for the district’s current grades, and confirm zoning for a specific address directly with the district. Property tax figures on this page use Sarasota County’s typical millage of 13.48; municipal and special-district millage varies inside the county. Insurance uses Citizens’ Sarasota County average of $2,126/year; a wind-mitigation inspection and roof age can move a private quote a long way in either direction.
