Dean Saunders, founder, managing director and senior advisor of SVN | Saunders Ralston Dantzler Realty, was recently named to Florida Trend’s Florida 500 for the second consecutive year. Florida Trend honored Saunders for his work in the real estate industry.

Founded in 1958, Florida Trend is recognized with numerous national and regional awards as a valuable source of information about the issues, people, and ideas that define Florida business. The Florida 500 is a special edition of Florida Trend highlighting the 500 most influential executives in different economic sectors throughout the state.

“After more than 30 years in land and commercial real estate, I’ve learned that when economic conditions are uncertain, expertise becomes even more vital and valued,” said Saunders. “It’s been a challenging year for all of us, and I’m focused on helping my clients, and Florida, successfully navigate the unique challenges we face.”

The executives listed in the Florida 500 are selected based on extensive contacts in regional business circles, hundreds of interviews, and months of research, and are considered Florida’s most distinguished industry leaders. Inclusion in the Florida 500 is intended to be an honor that represents an individual’s commitment, energy and effort to continue moving Florida forward and shape its future.
