In short

Ravenrock Funding Group, a small-business funding broker in Sarasota, Florida, serves owners across Sarasota County and nearby Manatee County from a single address at 1830 Main St. Six nearby communities have their own pages with ZIP-level Census data; other places are summarized below. Approval and pricing sit with the lending partners, never with Ravenrock.

A Main St address serving Sarasota County, FL and Manatee County, FL

The office address is 1830 Main St in the City of Sarasota. The six community pages below cover places within about 13 miles of it, four of them in Manatee County. Manatee County places are never described with Sarasota County figures; each page uses that place's own ZIP or Census data. County-wide figures for Sarasota County are on our Sarasota, FL page.

Longboat Key, FL

A town about 8 miles west-northwest of Sarasota, FL that sits in both Manatee County and Sarasota County. Its ZIP, 34228, counted 239 employers in 2023 (ZBP). Longboat Key, FL: ZIP 34228 details.

Osprey, FL

An unincorporated community in Sarasota County, about 11 miles south-southeast. Its ZIP, 34229, counted 274 employers in 2023 (ZBP). Osprey, FL: ZIP 34229 details.

Nokomis, FL and Venice, FL

Both sit in Sarasota County, about 16 to 17 miles south-southeast. ZIP 34275, which carries Nokomis's name, had 590 employer establishments in 2023, and construction led with 100 (ZBP). Nokomis covers only 7.5% of that ZIP's land, so the ZIP figure is broader than the community. ZIP 34293 had 906 employer establishments, again led by construction with 141, but the City of Venice covers just 0.3% of that ZIP's land. Owners in both places work with us by phone and online.

Cortez, FL and Anna Maria, FL

Two Manatee County places to the northwest. ZIP 34215 (Cortez) had 47 employer establishments in 2023 and ZIP 34216 (Anna Maria) had 98, with accommodation and food services the largest sector in both (ZBP). Their counts are small, so they are covered here rather than on separate pages.

Closer in: unincorporated Sarasota County, FL

Fruitville, Bee Ridge, Southgate, Gulf Gate, Siesta Key, Palmer Ranch and other Census-designated places surround the city. They have no ZIP of their own in our data, so we do not publish separate figures for them; Sarasota County's numbers on the Sarasota, FL page are the closest fit. Lakewood Ranch spans both Manatee and Sarasota counties.
