[1]Doug Parks Joins Michael Saunders.
Doug Parks, an award-winning specialist in waterfront and boating properties on Lido, St. Armands, Longboat and Bird Keys, joined the St. Armands II office of Michael Saunders & Company. Parks’ in-depth knowledge of the greater Sarasota real estate market area also extends to Lakewood Ranch and Siesta Key.
A Michigan native, Parks spent his early years working in his family’s resort business on Lake Huron. A Michigan State University graduate, with a BS in engineering, Parks worked for DTE Energy, spent seven years in construction management and another 15 in sales and marketing.
Relocating to Sarasota in 2004, Parks took steps to nourish his long-standing passion for real estate. Upon obtaining his Florida license, he joined Rooks Morris Real Estate, where he was recognized as that firm’s top producer for 2007. After Rooks Morris merged with Prudential Palms Realty, he was awarded membership to its 2008 Honor Society; and in 2009 to its President’s Circle, an honor bestowed on only the top 3% of agents within the nationwide Prudential real estate network. During that year he sold more properties in downtown Sarasota and on St. Armands and Lido Keys than any other Prudential agent.
The St. Armands II office of Michael Saunders & Company is located at 330 John Ringling Boulevard, on St. Armands Circle. Parks can be reached at (941) 400-9087 or via email at DougParks@michaelsaunders.com [2].
