SARASOTA, Fla. (Jan. 31, 2023) – Coldwell Banker Realty is proud to announce that Roger Pettingell achieved approximately $126.8 million in closed sales volume in 2022, earning him the accolade of being the No. 1 individual real estate agent focused on residential resales in Sarasota County for the 13th consecutive year, per the REALTOR® ASSOCIATION of Sarasota & Manatee multiple listing service. He also finished the year with $30 million in pending sales, largely consisting of new construction properties which are not yet completed, including a $13 million downtown penthouse. Across his accomplished 40-year career, Pettingell has amassed an impressive $2.6 billion in sales.
“Congratulations to Roger for achieving yet another phenomenal year! He has built a legacy of white-glove service and innovative marketing throughout the Sarasota area, proving himself an incomparable resource for his buyer and seller clients. Roger’s expertise on waterfront luxury in invaluable, and he shares that knowledge with colleagues on an international level as a selected member of the International Luxury Alliance,” said Duff Rubin, president of Coldwell Banker Realty in Florida.
Pettingell, who is affiliated with the Coldwell Banker Realty office in Longboat Key, is a consistent top-producer for the company. He has earned Coldwell Banker’s highest honor, the International Society of Excellence Award, on numerous occasions. Pettingell has also been ranked as the top individual Coldwell Banker Realty for multiple consecutive years. In 2022, Pettingell was included on the 2022 RealTrends + Tom Ferry The Thousand list, as featured in The Wall Street Journal, ranking among the Top 250 individual real estate agents in the United States. He hosts a vlog, REALTALK™ with Roger Pettingell.
Pettingell actively gives back to the Sarasota community, having established The Pettingell Family Foundation. In 2022, Pettingell partnered with World Central Kitchen and Sarasota restaurant Michael’s on East to feed thousands of hot meals to southwest Florida residents who were impacted by the devastation of Hurricane Ian. The partnership raised over $25,000.
The thriving residential real estate market of 2020 and 2021 continued into 2022. Pettingell and his team achieved a record-breaking sale in March, selling an Adrienne Vittadini-designed estate on Lido Shores for $11.5 million after just 11 days on the market. The price per square footage set a new benchmark for Sarasota. A featured story that Pettingell secured in the Wall Street Journal had attracted the buyer’s attention.
Pettingell has been in real estate long enough to see many ups and downs in the market. “One thing I’ve learned is to never underestimate Sarasota’s resiliency,” said Pettingell. “Our beautiful beaches, gorgeous weather, vibrant culture and Florida’s tax breaks are attractive benefits year-round.”
