About Company:

Company Establish IconFounded in nullnull Employees

It all started with a lady named Michael.
Michael Saunders & Company is the number one real estate broker in Southwest Florida, covering Sarasota, Charlotte, Manatee and Lee counties. The company offers a culture of collaborative agents and divisions that provide the deepest, most strategic market insights in the region; global marketing reach, and meticulous service to home buyers and sellers throughout their entire real estate journey. Our dominating market share in all price categories is more than regional bragging rights. It's a direct reflection of the trust we've earned over our 45-year history. Our company was built from our Sarasota roots, strong moral standards, and a unified vigor to set the highest expectation for real estate services.

The idea of service is central to the way we operate, developing from the personal story of our Founder and CEO, Michael Saunders. Growing up on Longboat Key, she eventually transitioned from schoolteacher to social worker to a single mother taking out a co-signed loan to start her own business. Guided by strong ideals, creative thinking, and a foundation always rooted in customer care, Michael launched the company in 1976 in a 1,000 sq. ft. office on St. Armands Circle. Driven by the same set of core values and emphasis on brand independence, Michael's son, Drayton, joined the company in 2003, helping to grow the company into what it is today " 24 branch offices and in-house divisions, including mortgage, title, insurance, relocation, new homes and condominiums and commercial.

Our goal is to make your next move seamless with all the real estate services and support you need conveniently available with trusted partners that will guide you through every aspect of the real estate process.

From $11 million in sales by the end of that first year to what is now a multi-billion-dollar business, Michael Saunders & Company is an influence on the real estate industry felt around the world.

Lesley helped my husband and I with finding our dream home in Punta Gorda Florida. I contacted Lesley about one of her listings and I'm so glad I did! We mostly searched for our home from a distance (NY State) and having an agent as knowledgeable as Lesley proofed to be invaluable. Her knowledge of the local market, the difference vibes of various locales and her unwavering support of our search lead us to our dream home. If youre looking for an agent who will listen and help you identify what your true wants are and lead you to your dream home and contact Lesley!!

Lesley is not just an amazing agent, she's a friend. After the hurricane it was a struggle to determine much about the market and it's standing. Her team were steadfast and strong despite the circumstances. Whatever questions or concerns, she was always available. She has a broad network and can facilitate whatever you may need. Not only will I recommend her, I urge you to welcome her and her team in the search or sale of your home.

I met Lesley while escaping the brutal Michigan winters in 2019. We were JUST beginning our research into purchasing or building here in SW FL. With her upbeat personality, attention to my every question, and her patience with my lack of knowledgeaEUR|..I knew Id found a good match with my realtor. I spent 2 winter seasons in FL in a fifth wheel and last year in a Cape Coral rental, all the while picking Lesleys brain about building codes, available properties and reputable contractors and tradesmen for our hopeful project. 3 seasonsaEUR|3 aEUR|.I asked so much of this highly knowledgeable and extremely motivated woman; she answered every question and guided us toward the best people for our needs. Returned phone calls within minutes, extremely efficient and well connected with local businesses. What a blessing for us! August 2021, we finally tied up our loose ends here in Michigan and began a REAL home search. With the market demanding immediate action and response, Lesley investigated all our homes of interest, steered us clear of the aEURoebig issues = badaEUR? homes and we ended up bidding on and landing the best home for us. Lesleys intuitive guidance coupled with her keen prowess regarding the navigation of complicated Florida real estate was the ONLY reason we aEURoewonaEUR? our little slice of palm tree bordered paradise. Accurate, agressive and quick is essential in this game and Lesley executes this well as the pro that she is. Even after the sale, she has been a GREAT help to suggest and coordinate our tradesmen and contractors for the anticipated improvements of our 50 year old home. I would not hesitate a moment to recommend Lesley and her team for any real estate endeavor. I'm very grateful for her expertise and consistently offering her valuable time and advice. We are thrilled to be her clients and now, Florida friends! ??????

My first conversation with Lesley was tell me what you want to do, we can do this etc, she was professional, knowledgeable about the area, she has a great sense of what works and how to get your attention; as well as a great sense of humor. She stays ahead of what's happening and keeps her clients informed. She makes things seem effortless, I was very impressed with Lesley, working with her was a joy.
